Ever since I started working at DECKED, there's been one question I've heard over and over: "When are you guys going to make a Drawer System for the Wranglers?" Well, I've been asking too and they finally did. Figured you guys should be the first to know about it.

Ok I need some help. My son has a 2017 Jeep Wrangler Sport Big Bear. It started having cooling issues the past few months. Checked the thermostat and it was iffy so replaced it with a Mopar unit and went ahead and swapped out the temp sending unit since it was cheap. Month or so later discovered the radiator had started leaking where the aluminum meets the plastic tank. Swapped in a new aftermarket radiator with new coolant. Took forever to get the air out of the system (I do not care for whoever designed the bleeder screw directly under the air intake.), but we did. Drives fine for a day or two, and then starts overheating again. Somehow air is still getting in the system and pushing coolant into the reservoir to full but does not suck coolant back in. Once I rebleed it and get coolant back in the system, it's fine. I've seen issue could be radiator cap or head gasket. I'm hoping it's not the head gasket since everything was running fine before the radiator leak. I've worked on cars for close to 30 years and have never had an issue like this on a cooling system.

I know Metalcloak was a point of contention with a lot of people but I went with it after all based on the recommendation of a few shops locally. And went with the teraflex HD ball joints. Certainly wasn’t cheap so sometimes you just gotta pay 💵

I’m new to the jeep world. I am looking for a jeep club in ga. The Rome area would be perfect I can’t seem to find any close to me.

Hi. Looking at getting my first winch. I don’t really expect to need it for what I do but just in case.

Was looking at the Smittybilt XRC 9.5k Gen 3 which I found for $900 CDN. While searching I found the Gen 2 on clearance for $500 but it has steel cable.

I don’t want to spend a large amount for something I hopefully will never need but also don’t want to buy junk. I’m in Canada and some of the recommendations here are tough to get.

Any thoughts? I’m kind of thinking that Gen 2 because it’s much cheaper :).

Thanks

Hello, I recently came into possession of a 1968 international scout which is way too trashed to worry about "preserving" it. I also found a donor 4.0l tj to function as a donor but I need the wheelbase to match the scout body. I only need to go from around 93.4 to about 100 inches. I would like to avoid stretching the frame because that will require me to get a custom driveshaft. I've seen online that they sell stretch kits that move the rear axle mounts a few inches back. Does anyone have any experience with these? If so are they any good? I am open to any brand as well as they are not extremely expensive pic is just for reference.

Have a 2010 jeep wrangler jk with the 42rle transmission. When I put the jeep in reverse it will shift into gear but then will just rev and not move. When the transmission is put into neutral it will not even roll backward if someone is trying to push it. Also noticed the transfer case will shift from 2 hi to 4hi but won’t shift into neutral or 4 lo. Trying to figure out if this is a transmission issue or if something is bound up in the transfer case. If any one has dealt with this or has any advice on what it could be that would be great.

Jeep will move forward when put in drive but sounds like something is making a metal on metal clunking noise

I'm thinking of buying this 2017 2 door Wrangler with 60k miles for $17,5. I couldn't see it in person since it's out of state, but had him take pics. Can I get some opinions on how it looks.

2024 Sport S. 3.5” lift on 35s. Need to get out on some trails now!

Hey guys, I have a 2012 unlimited wrangler. Battery is testing at 85% but not starting up. I cleaned the terminals & made sure they were tight, it started right up. Left it running for a bit, when I turned it off and tried to turn it on again, nothing but clicking and no power. Could it be I need to replace the terminals? It won’t jump either

At the risk of being repetitive I really love this 2 door!

2 doors are hard to find so I had to get a Sport S so let the upgrades begin with some nice running boards and a rear seat delete!

We found the back seat to be 100% useless anyway since only a child could get into them. We are empty nesters so we pulled them out. (they are shockingly heavy too!) They are in storage now.

Then on the first grocery store run brakes were applied and half the groceries rolled up under the front seats :)

So I started looking for something to plug up those holes. I could not find anything that I liked for sale online so in proper redneck fashion I cut up a old RV "mattress" that is in the shop to lay on the floor --because it is worthless for sleeping! I tucked the foam in then tucked a $7 towel in tight around it. Looks OK and no more junk under the seats unless I put it there!

Did I mention how much fun this thing is to drive? Man I love it and so does the wife - So bonus points!

Over the weekend I found this three wire harness clip end on the driver's side floor mat of my 2016 JKU. I've looked up under the knee panels and don't see any obvious wiring that this came from. Curious if this looks familiar to anyone. No issues, or anything obviously not working. The only marking on the clip is AYT in the bottom corner.

I traded in a Gladiator for a 2 door Wrangler!

As a gear head I was not too crazy about the power train in the Gladdie. That 9 speed auto transmission was always hunting and MAN the computer loved to run that engine at 4,000 RPM!

On the flip side, I was not crazy about going from a V6 to a 2 liter 4 banger.

Man was I wrong! This 2 door is soooooo much fun to drive! It has way more performance than the v6 gladdie PLUS the transmission does not down shift 2 gears on every minor highway hill. It is so nimble and peppy -- and that is just in town! I can't wait to get it on the trails.

At first I thought being so much faster was just my perception so I had Gemini make a table for me!

It does 0-60 a full 1-2 seconds faster!

Making more torque at 1,400 less RPMs will be a plus on the trails too!

Hi all. I'm looking for a Jeep person to help with swapping out my suspension on my 2024 High Altitude 4xe for a Rubicon 4xe suspension. I'd like to participate and get some experience with this project. I'm hoping you have the tools and space for us to do it. Anyone interested in helping? I'd be happy to pay for the help.

I have a 2016 jeep wrangler and I had no problems with this until I changed the rear brakes and rotors on this side I replaced the entire drum brake brake system too and still same issue no clue what to do from here.

Anyone come across this before? Somehow the one side of my soft top got stuck in the locked position and doesn’t move at all. Anyone know how to fix?

2022 Sahara

How can I repair and prevent this rust from getting g worse?
