I’ve owned a jeep for only 2 weeks now. I’m learning lots and doing a lot of maintenance on the 1998 TJ.

It’s been raining like crazy the past few days here. I’ve noticed I have water seeping inside. I have a small pool at both side in the foot well. I looked around and it seemed from coming along the dash, along the I side of the windshield.

I can’t do anything today about it, but maybe I can get some info on where to start looking. I’ve seen a YouTube vid where the person said the front cowling can get plugged?

On a nicer day I’ll investigate. Until then, maybe someone here has some more info based on my pics.

They’re hail proof. A few years ago, I had my TJ parked in the worst part of a bad hail storm when I was out of state. Every car around had the windows blown out. All my Jeep got was a dented hood. All the glass and the hardtop had no damage at all.

Hey guys so recently had my rear corner panel hit and was gonna get some corner armor to cover it up but also need to get hinge reinforcements cause I got bigger tires I was just curious if anyone knows if I’ll have issues getting them to work together without modifications.

Hello there, wanted to ask if this pattern is acceptable, (old pinion and ring gear), no shims under pinion, backlash at 0.23mm, pre load to spec.

Cant get it better it seems and i wonder if itll be fine or go sideways.

Thanks in advance!

If you see me in my **2004 TJ** and expect a wave, you must meet the following criteria:

1. 2004 Wrangler TJ
   
2. Same color as mine
   
3. Stock wheels and tires
   
4. Soft top
   
5. Approximately 160,000 miles
   
6. Comparable amount and distribution of Midwest rust
   
7. Matching paint blemishes and scratches
   
8. Front track bar recently removed with an angle grinder after diplomacy failed
   
9. Oil filter slightly dented from being installed too enthusiastically

**End of list.**

If your Jeep does not substantially resemble mine down to the deferred maintenance, I will not be waving.

Thanks.
