I'm looking for photos of other 2012 JK owners who've mounted small 12 volt air compressors and am not having much luck. Anyone have photos or directions to another link? Jon

Has anyone ever replaced the locker indicator switches on an 05 Rubicon? They screw into the top of the differential housing and when the locker is engaged, the locker plate pulls the switch which turns the light on up on the dash. We replaced the rear seals and after reinstalling the carrier...

I just had the inner and outer rear axle seals on my 05 Rubicon replaced, but now the rear electric locker will not disengage. I've tried cycling the locker switches while in 4L, during which the front locker engages/disengages appropriately, but the rear locker light just flashes and will not...

++++++ATTENTION PILOTS AND SCIENTISTS++++++ I'm tired of our community being reduced to relying on "case-based" information and advice when it comes to soliciting help choosing accessories and parts for our vehicles. When I'm considering a certain component, or performance modifier, I want...

I'm looking for someone who's got personal experience with a complete Nth degree lift, either 4.5 or 6" on a TJ, preferably a Rubicon. Please contact me or post a review and some pictures. Thanks.

REX is getting a custom made rear winch bumper. There are two options for electrical power: A) use the two battiers under the hood, through a fused switch and cable along the frame to the rear. How do I know how much power (amps, volts, or whatever) I'll loose with 10 feet of cable? What sized...

Hurricaine season is here (Southern Louisiana) and everyone recommends I get a generator to keep the beer cold, etc. I'd rather upgrade the jeep's electrical system to use as a stationary engine. I've got two options: 1)Premier Power's welder, puts out like 2500 Wats of 110v from a...

While trying to isolate an irritating squeak comming from underneath, I noticed that if I grab the tailpipe just as it ducks under the front of the transmission, there's a pretty significant amount of wiggle, like maybe an inch worth. Should that be solid, or is it meant to wiggle like that so...

Ok, I've got 2.5 yrs on my 4inch skyjacker short arm lift and it's served me well (after I scrapped the t-case drop brackets and bought a double cardan rear drive line, and adjustable uppers, and an adjustable track bar). However, it's time to bite the bullet and do it right. I'm running 285...

I've searched the archives and can't find what I need. The floorboards on my 05 rubicon are getting warm when I drive. Last week the skid plate was so hot I couldn't touch it after a 2 hr drive. I think I should change transmission and T case fluid but can't find a resource with specs for...

I've just outfitted with on board air and have run 1/2" ID truck air brake line from front bumper to rear and added quick couplers at both ends for convenience. My tank is now mounted on the driver's side fender inside the cab. I'm a little nervous about having a pressurized tank inside the...

So I cut a corner on my 4" short arm skyjacker and opted for the T case lowering kit instead of the longer rear CV drive shaft. Saved me $300, right? Wrong. The shifter handel on my Rubicon bumped the console in 6th and reverse. So....I disconnected the shifter handle where it bolts on top of...

I've made the decision, I'm going to get a compressor. All I need it for is airing up-down my own or a buddy's tires. I'm also a guy who likes to do things the right way one time, as opposed to piecing it together later. So... when the guy at 4wheel parts tries to sell me a tank setup as...

I need more room under my hood for some accessories. Is that air intake box necessary, what a space consumer! There looks to be several K&N style intakes which are smaller, but can I just cut off the intake as it crosses the engine compartment from passenger to driver side and put on a filter...

Does anyone have a GEAR seat cover (from SmittyBuilt, the ones with the military like pouches) on a Rubicon high backed seat? I heard they don't fit but wanted them for my Rubi. Thanks for the help.

Anyone else with a 4" lifted rubicon 6spd have problems getting shifter into 6 and R? The shifter bumps not only the decorative piece of the console but also the rubber boot under the console. I had to cut the floor to get into reverse and 6th. I have a big hole in the floor of my rubi now...

I have a 2005 Rubicon with 4" skyjacker short arm lift.and 40,000 mi. There was a very slight shimmy in my steering wheel at 45-55mph so I did some measuring and found my front axle was 3/4 inch to the passenger side (a product of drilling the relocation hole for the stock track bar). So...i...

My project Rex 05 Rubicon is comming along nicely, thanks to your help. I am, however, unsatisfied with the transfer case lowering bracket in my 4" lift. The engine sits all kittywampus under the hood and the shifter bumps the back of the console in 2,4, and R. I want to get rid of the T case...

Does anyone have a Body Armor rear bumper? Can you comment on it. Also, I'm wondering if any of you have this swing away tire carrier and also have a class 3 receiver hitch mounted at the same time.

Any opinions on the VIAIR setup? Is there any reason a guy needs a tank, or is a $150 compressor enough. Should I spend the extra $100 and get the complete setup with tank and guage?
