Installing CJ Mirrors on a Wrangler
If you want to take the doors off your Wrangler and remain street legal, you need to install some mirrors. Most areas require at least one mirror on the drivers side and the mirrors on a Wrangler are attached to the doors. Installing CJ mirrors on your Wrangler will allow you to run doorless and stay legal. Domain: http://www.4x4wire.com Rating: (0/5)

Installing TJ flares on a YJ
Installing larger tires usually results in your tires rubbing and scraping your stock fender flares as the tire gets stuffed up into the fender well. The solution? Install a set of TJ flares. TJ flares are larger and wider than stock YJ flares, thus increasing your tire clearance and overall tire coverage. I found a set of white Sahara flares through a friend of mine. The Sahara flares are a bit wider than the stock TJ flares. This worked out perfect for me since my tires stick out beyond my flares anyway. Domain: http://www.4x4wire.com Rating: (0/5)

Painting a Jeep
Anyone will tell you that the key to a good paint job is the prep work. Body work on a Jeep is something you need to strike a delicate balance between looking good and not wasting a lot of time. I wasn't building this Jeep to be a show truck and I knew I'd be scratching and denting the body before too long anyway. I probably ended up spending too much time on the prep work. It is hard not to get carried away, but the results were excellent. Domain: http://www.4x4wire.com Rating: (0/5)

Scrambler Body Mounts
How do you know it's time to replace your body mounts? A common question without a common answer. I knew it was time for me to do it because the existing OEM mounts were falling apart. There was also some surface rust visible around the mounts. The first step in the process is removing the mount bolts. Some of these bolts may be seized up due to rust, so take your time and don't break any off. Use rust penetrant and slowly work out the bolts. Once all of the bolts are out, carefully jack/lift the body from the frame and insert a spacer in between them. I used small pieces of wood which worked great. Now you can remove the mounts. When I took mine off, most of them were destroyed from age. The rubber was cracked in several places and in some cases it was just barely hanging on. A few of the really bad mounts had already lost some large chunks of rubber as well. It's not the part that you can see that is scary, it's the hidden ones that will get you.

Scrambler Cleaning Inside the Frame
If you have read through the forums or you have looked at enough rusted out Scramblers, you will know where one of the most common places on the frame that is very prone to rust. It is well known that the original factory Scrambler frames tend to rust in a spot right above the rear forward spring mounts. They always seem to rust from the inside out. The rust will always spread down the box frame. It was always a mystery to me why that spot seemed to be prone to rust before any other spot on the frame. Well, after doing my frame off restoration/rebuild of my 82 I came across an interesting discovery as to why they probably rust there. I thought it was definitely worth documenting to help anyone else do preventative maintenance. I don't know if my suspect reasoning is correct but here is findings.
If you didn't already know, the Scrambler frame is a hollow boxed steel frame with various types of drain holes and access holes throughout the frame. Domain: http://www.cj-8.com Rating: (0/5)
