Interesting how the gas mileage took a swing from better to worse between the manual and auto transmission from 2002 to 2004! Especially being as my 04 with a manual is getting 17 mpg city and a friends 04 with an Auto gets 14 mpg. 2004 Jeep Wrangler/TJ 4WD 6 cylinder 4.0 liter R (L4)...

I notice you're running 31" tires, have you done anything to correct your speedometer to compensate for the taller tires? Do you have a GPS? If so, compare the speed indicated on your GPS with your speedometer at around 45 to 50 mph and see if it's off. Mine is almost dead on with the 30"...

What pressure are you running in your tires? look on the sideway and see the max pressure listed. You can safely run that pressure, which will increase gas mileage. I run 40 PSI in mine, the sidewall rating is 45 psi, but the ride is harsh at 40, so I haven't gone any higher. If you can, try...

As mentioned in the referenced thread, I work with a guy who has an 98 TJ 4 banger, all stock, and he claims he can't get better than 14 mpg on his daily commute. I have ridden with him to work and home a couple times, and he's by no means a hot rod with it, so not sure why he can't get any...

Looks nice, any report on drivability, performance improvements, likes/dislikes?

We don't take our Jeep on the highway much, most of our driving is running errands and a trip to work and back once a week, so pretty much 100% city driving and never over 50 mph. I have been averaging in the high 17's with my best being 18 mpg. of course this is with stock suspension and...

Yea, what the hell happened to that America? I want it back! Could you imagine the lawsuits and uproar if that ad were to run in a magazine today?

Dang, looks good, I'd want to dip the whole Jeep!

They don't have a lot of inventory at the store near me either, which is why I normally order on-line. I have it delivered to the store though, it saves shipping costs and gives me an excuse to stop by the store! LOL! I wish they had a few of the tops on display though, it would help when...

The catalogs do a dis-service to the customer, that's for sure! The same time I ordered the Rampage Combo Top, I ordered the Bestop Winshield Channel with OE Latch, Part# BST5501401. The description in the 4 Wheel Parts Catelog stated: Windshield Channels are required for the installation of...

Yes, per the instructions the back straps are supposed to go through a J hook and attach to the Tub, but the picture in the instructions also shows only one strap per side with the buckle is attached to the strap about 1/2 to 3/4 of the way down the strap. The top actually has a separate strap...

Okay, here are some pics to help explain my disappointment: This shows the second strap attached to the back half of the cover just past the zipper. Looks as though it should strap to the sport bar like the one on the front half, but there is no buckle to strap it to on the back side of the...

me either..

I didn't post pictures, maybe I should! I have a Bestop Black Diamond Safari Top that I really like, I was just looking for something that would let the air through but block the burning effects of the sun. I really like it in that respect, just disappointed in the shabby way it attaches. Had...

That doesn't really work either due to the placement of the buckles. The strap that attaches the buckle to the top is about 1 1/2" in length, so even if I loosened the sound bar, the buckle would either be under (inside) the soundbar enclouser or it sets on top of the sound bar and does not...

I picked this top up in the mesh fabric to get the full open air feel while providing some protection from the sun. The concept of two tops in one was appealing, however, execution leave alot to be desired. Maybe I need to ask a couple questions first... Did the Sound Bar come standard on...

I've had dealings with these beings as well, and truly believe these parasites troll craig's list because they've been banned from every other social media source on the internet... This comment is just further evidence of this hypothesis...

This Forum is the reason I had to get a second job...

You can always go to a hardware store and get a spare key made, at least then you could unlock the door if you accidently lock the fob in the Jeep. Have you checked eBay? Sometime you can find fob on eBay at a good price. You should be able to program it to your vehicle yourself without...

I'll initiate a wave to other Wrangler (CJ/YJ/TJ/JK) drivers, I'll return a wave to any Jeep driver. Some return the wave, others don't. This has also been discuss quite a bit in another thread... The Jeep Wave
