Rockslide slider steps
Man I love these steps, this isn’t my hard core rock crawler so they will serve me just fine for mall duties

Will an engine for a manual jeep wrangler work for an automatic jeep wrangler?
So my engine recently went out and I don’t have a lot of money to spend on a brand new engine(quoted $12k) or hardly a used one, so I’ve been searching on eBay and found a used engine, same as the one currently have, with about 56k miles for about $2,900. My jeep is a automatic 2013 jeep wrangler Sahara and it currently has a 3.6L V6.
Well I talked to the seller and he said his was a 2012 manual, now I’m not sure if he was talking about his own personal jeep or the one it came from. He was talking like it would work and that he’d like to talk to my mechanic about the engine and to “be on the same page” in his words.( I am not saying anything bad about him, he was very sweet) I ended up sending the engine to my grandfather and he said he didn’t believe the deal and that he wasn’t sure if it would work because of the different transmissions.
I need a mechanics or someone who works on cars/ knows cars help because I don’t want to call my mechanic and ask what I feel may be a stupid question 😭

Like aunt, like nephew. ✌🏻
Bought my 3yr nephew a red jeep and obviously had to add the badge and Rubicon to match mine. He kept repeating “my jeep” while we did some backyard off roading, so I think it was a success.

Is a transmission cooler recommended?
So I bought my first jeep, 2015 JK with 105k miles on it. It’s on a 2.5 lift with 35’s, few days after purchasing it a had a crankshaft sensor go, annoying but no biggie easy fix. I don’t do a ton of off roading, but I have noticed even going up minor hills just driving that once or twice the temperature gauge went a little past the half way point then backed down after letting off. My guess wants to say that it wouldn’t hurt to install an inline transmission cooler which I would imagine would put less stress on the rest of the cooling system as well. Is it worth doing? Would it cause any issues being up here in PA with cold winters? Wondering if it would help with longevity too by running it cooler. Anyone have any experience/recommendations?

Traded in my 2 door JK
I traded in my JK for something a bit more practical. My JK was the first jeep I ever owned. I loved it, it was an off road beast and let me say, you felt every part of the road while driving. That being said, I had no idea a jeep could drive like my Sahara, it’s like driving on a cloud and the power the 4xe makes is crazy.

Fixing the wobbly before the wobbly
So I’ve contemplated just downsizing tires and try to salvage my drivability as much as possible without spending a crazy amount of money, but in an effort to make sure my wife’s daily is in the best mechanical shape I went to some local pros and had them get me a quote to do it right and I am of the ‘buy once, cry once’ mentality. I just don’t know enough about wranglers and what’s necessary and not necessary for my application which is just a daily driver and light trail use a handful of times a year.
2015 Jku with 105k miles. All stock other than a cheap rubicon express 2.5 kit and running 35s. Should I just pull the trigger and get this done or what say you all with the experience?

Bulldog Canyon, Tonto NF Arizona
Took the jeep and my family (wife & 3 kids) for a fun adventure to run Bulldog Canyon east of Phoenix, Az. FYI the video clip does have som NSFW commentary from my wife, she is not an off-roader, and wasn’t comfortable doing the side obstacle hill climb so offered to record with while the rest of us conquered it. It was an awesome day and everyone had a great time. If you are from the area, we started at the Usery gate, took trail 3553 until it joined trail 10 then headed south to the Wolverine gate.

Please Help 2013 Wrangler
2013 Jeep Wrangler
When taking off from a stop, there seems to be something hanging up and I can physically feel it slowing down. It’s not constant, but let’s go and starts up again in a few feet. Traction control lights come on goes into like a limp mode. Seems to do better when starting off on a downhill. I read online it was the front wheel hubs and I replaced them but it’s still doing it. Can anyone point me towards a fix or what to check next? It’s about to drive me crazy.
Thank you in advance. I would really appreciate some help.

Severe brake dust on front wheels only, normal?
I observe a ton of brake dust on my front wheels only. I wonder if you all observed something similar or not? I am trying to figure out if this is related to the quality of these specific brake pads or something that is considered common with these vehicles. JK 2015, brakes are 1 year old

Now that it's all rebuilt and running properly, I really love driving my TJ
Went to a comedy show tonight with the wife, and decided to take the TJ. It is such a cool Jeep that even non-Jeep folks comment on it. Very thankful to have a super clean piece of history, it makes me smile just cruising around town.

Looking for recommendations on replacing the factory whip. Any brands or size types that are chosen over others?
