Steelheadz I appreciate the info but luckily it is not the diagnosis that is the issue. The pull tab itself that sticks out of the seat broke, the mechanism works fine. In theory it should just be a matter of fishing a piece of cloth through the hole but we all know how bad simple projects can...

The 33's are too much for the tailgate, get a rear tire swing. i just replaced my 3rd brake light with a replacement trailer brake light, $8 in wiring accesories, ans an $.50 L bracket form the hardware store. Prefab 3rd brakelight extenders do exist imost catalogs for about $80...your choice...

Hello again jeepers, Once again I cannot seem to solve my issue on my own.I have an '02 TJ X and the pull tab that moves the passenger seat for access to the rear seat broke. I know this is not really an issue but it bugs me and I would like to fix it. Has anyone else ever replaced this thing...

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!! It was a pinched ground wire. My TJ is now legal for at least one more year and I am now the master of all things electrical....well...master of all minor electrical components anyway. This forum has assisted me in reassembling my door locks,installing a new rear...

I tried to wire it to the original wiring. Thank you all for the insight...I will post my findings so another newby can figure it out in case they run into the same problem one day.

I have a 2002 tj X with a 2" budget boost and I only rub if I am off road and hit HARD!!!

I pulled the 3rd brake light off of my 2002 TJ X and it failed inspection the other day. i went to a local auto parts store & purchased a cheap brake light to mount on the rear tire swing I just installed but it will not light. I left the original wiring intact in case I ran into this but I...

Welding a tab on the bolt...BRILLIANT!!! I knew there was going to be a simple trick to makling this happen. Thank you to everyone that helped out...I will let you know what happened!

There really is not a good pic of it on the diagram....basically what I have is a box frame, I slid the bolt into the frame with my fingers, the threading of the bolt is sticking out of the frame with the bumper bracket,washer,&nut on it. In order to tighten the nut I have to hold the head of...

Dispite the fact that I am the master of all things mechanical my new rear bumper and tire swing install has now consumed almost 10 hours and I AM STILL NOT DONE YET.This installation requires sliding a bolt through the hole in the frame BUT you cannot get to the head to tighten it! I thought of...

great input everyone & thank you for the info...It sounds like my original assumptions still hold true and that is to put up with the 4.0L for a while until I am ready to do the V8 swap. I just wanted to make sure that I was not missing something obviouse.

Keep in mind I am not a mechanically inclined person, I have just started to work on my own jeep, & pretend I know nothing about engines..... I have a 2002 tj X that I have recently switched from a daily driver to a wekeend toy. I am not ready to go nutz with it yet but I am curiouse about...

I appreciate the help!!!

I have had my jeep garaged for a few months, and not driven it, so the front diff started leaking fluid just a little bit. How do you check the fluid level in the diff? How much fluid should be in the front diff? How hard is it to pull the diff cover and re-seal it? Any advice would be...

I think it's figured out....thanx for your help everyone

I pulled the passenger side door apart and the linkage disconnected @ the latch, I dodn't see a plastic clip....it looks like there is a metal clip but it is kind of mangled and seems to be riveted to the latch. Do I have to replace the entire latch or is there a plastic piece missing ( id didnt...

It is a 2002 TJ X...I would take apart the drivers side door to see how it looks but I am trying to avoid it if possible because once you take off a door panel it never goes back the same ( something is always cracked or rattles after putting it back). Thanks for your help everyone and I hope...

I recently went through the painful task of replacing my passenger side exterior door handle but after everything was back together my interior door handle would not open the door anymore! it looks like the rod that connects to the latch disconnected....does anyone have a picture of what the...
