    Is synthetic oil ok to use?

    When I had the Cherokee all I ever did was change the oil once a year, not really caring about the amount of mileage. It ran great and so is my Wrangler, no leaks anywhere!

    transmission swap?

    Has anyone ever swapped a 5 speed transmission into a Wrangler that has an Auto in it? I have a 2006 Wrangler Rubicon LJ with 30,000 miles on it, I am wondering how hard it would be to swap in a 5 speed transmission. Would I have to also swap the computer on it? Would the computer have to be...

    stock mirror removal

    I have a 2006 Wrangler Rubicon LJ and I would like to remove the stock mirror from the stock bracket that attaches it to the stock door. Does anyone know how this is done? I know you do not just remove the bolt and pull on it. Mine does not have a bolt on it at all. When you look in the bottom...

    mirror relocation brackets

    I live in PA. You know the place that puts a 10 cent tax on every gallon of gas and it will raise to 30 cents in a couple of years. Just having the rear view mirror on the windshield is not enough for these guys here.

    mirror relocation brackets

    do you know where to find them? I have looked and found none. I was going to use the mirrors that bolt to the windshield and look like CJ mirrors.

    Is synthetic oil ok to use?

    I knew that I could go back to conventional oil after using synthetic oil at any time. I never believed that you could not go back. I was told that on a brand new engine, you should wait until you have at least 3000 miles on it.

    removal of rear sway bar?

    Thanks. I am not really sure what to do yet. I had a 2001 Cherokee just before I got this Rubi and, I didn't have a rear sway bar on it either. It handled great but I was not sure about the Wrangler.

    Is it a good idea to remove the rear sway bar from my Rubi? I have been told that it will flex better without it?

    death wobble, please help!!

    I have an appointment to get this thing aligned tomorrow, this is one of the best guys I have ever seen at this. The question I have is, how can you tell if you have a bad belt in a tire? I put the front tires on the back and the back on the front and it got better. Less death wobble now...

    Is synthetic oil ok to use?

    Thanks for all the answers. I was just wondering about synthetic oil because the Cherokee was the first vehicle I ever used it on. I never had a problem with the Cherokee. I use the Fram filter. I know a lot of you are going to say that, that is a bad oil filter to use. I was changing the oil...
