Date: 25SEP2003 Company: Catco Product: Hi-Flo Cat Model: '97 Wrangler SE Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: peronibros@hotmail.com

Details: I got the hi-flo cat after already had installed Borla header, Flowmaster muff, and intake/bored TB/spacer combo. So to complete the whole exhaust system I purchased from Summit Racing the cat. I tell ya... not only does it increase the "cool" factor in the noise department, but you do get an extra kick out in accell and overall power. Definately worth the money!

Date: 25SEP2003 Company: Jeepers & Creepers Product: Bored Throttle Body & Spacer Model: '97 Wrangler SE Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: peronibros@hotmail.com

Details: Called J&C's for their bored out TB for my 2.5L Wrangler. They were great on the phone, and gave me one of their bored TB for 4 cyls....since they warned me that a 4.0 TB would make me lose some low-end torque. I installed it, and it worked great! The engine really comes alive when started, and is "snappier" in accelleration. Later I had the spacer (from Poweraid) bored out to 62mm and coupled with the new TB the combination is fantastic!

Date: 12AUG2003 Company: SuperLift Product: True Speed Model: TJ (fits all though) Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: shawn_croswell@hotmail.com

Details: Superlift TruSpeed. If you have changed tire size or gear ratioos, this is a must! I changed ratios from 3.07 to 4.11 and went from 225/75/15 tires to 285/75/16 tires at the same time. Suddenly, cruising at 60mph showed 100 on the speedo and the odometer was clocking 1.2 miles per every mile I traveled. Not good! I installed the TrueSpeed from Superlift to remedy the problem. Excellent results! An easy 1 hr iinstall by simply splicing one wire coming off the transfer case and routing the true speed to power (fuse box) and ground (body). After using SuperLifts included chart for resference, I simply dialed in my settings. First results were close but still about .08% off. A simple counterclockwise twist and my speedo and odo are almost perfect again. Highs: Easy install, works perfectly Lows: a little pricy at $165.00 Overall:Excellent! A must!

Date: 12AUG2003 Company: Banks Product: Cat-Back Exhaust Model: TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: shawn_croswell@hotmail.com

Details: Excellent! However, a little loud. I don't mind but the GF doesn't like it too much. INstall was fairly easy- However, I recommend cutting the old exhaust in two for easier removal. Also, old bolts connecting to Cat Converter seemed almost welded on...were very hard to remove. Easily a three hour install if you have a sawzall to remove the old exhaust. Too new to calucualte exactly, but does seem to have opened up the Jeep a little..definately see an improvement in 4 and 5th gears. Highs: Sounds good (to me, not GF), easy install Lows: Cheesy chrome tip and clamps (I didn't use them) Overall:Highly Recommend!

Details: Had to buy something as factory sway bar connectors were shot, so I decided to go with JKS as they seemed higher quality and got raves online. Easy to install besides knocking the sway bar bolt out. Ride is excellent and quiet, and they disconnect and connect (after initial adjustment) in a snap. Look at the difference in the build of these before you buy discos. They are the best.

Details: I was very unsure about getting a lift for such an old jeep, but once i got the springs, all i had to do was get the shackle bushing out of the spring (to use the stock C-shackle)(even though they said it wouldnt work and i hade to buy H-shackles.. yeah right, the C-shackle worked just fine. AS well i did alittle grinding to the sides to fit it into the main-eye mount. I was very impressed i think it gave me more then a 2.5 inch lift but i am okay with that. Very cheap and very good suspension.

Details: Installation is easy. I Drove with the new axles and Detroit locker for 8 months without any problems. Then I was involved in an accident - direct side impact to my right rear tire. I was hit hard, flipped me over. One axle was broken and the other was bent. No damage to the locker. I contacted Superior Axle and Gear to find out how to buy replacement axles and they sent me new axles FREE - still under warranty they said. They not only sent the axles free but they sent new bearings and seals too. Outstanding customer service.

Date: 26FEB2003 Company: Backcountry Engineering Product: Backcountry Rack Model: N/A Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: boldhomer@hotmail.com

Details: I've used on of these receiver racks for years to get some extra storage on my Jeep, especially during the deer hunt, but I always bent the crap out of them cause their so low to the ground. Well, I came across this company called Backcountry Engineering and they took a receiver rack and stuck a pair of receiver tubes on the tire swing. It sat about 3ft off the ground on a semi-stck YJ, much higher than other receiver racks. But the really cool part is the rack swings out with the tire carrier giving me full access to the tailgate and lift hatch. I bought one and got it within a week, it bolted straight on and everything line rigght up to exsisiting holes. The bumper is this one peice of 4 x 4 tube, all the bolts are inside and hidden. Its very clean and smooth looking but I dont know if I like the caps on the end. I'll hav eto see how they hold up. The tire swing is mounted on a 2" solid rod welded into the bumper, its solid with the rack on and me jumping on the rack nothing moves or flexes or sags. I've had 300 pounds on it going down the road and it felt very solid well the rack was solid and my jeep was squirrelly. Anyway I've been very impressed with mine. They must be a pretty new company because I haven't found anywhere other than Ebay (of all places).

Details: I have been impressed so far with my TrXus 31x10.50 radials. 10,000 miles with minimal wear. Agressive look and far better preformance than I had expected from them. They do ride a bit stiff but I have become acustomed to them, they are not a loud tire, just a nice little hum. Will probably buy again.

Date: 15JAN2003 Company: Doestch Tech Product: DT-3000 Shocks Model: N/A Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: smurfe@cox.net

Details: an excellent shock at an excellent price. Dramaticaly improved the ride of my 99 TJ. I mounted mine "can" down. When mounted "can" up they gave a "spongy" ride. I totally recomend this product.

Date: 15JAN2003 Company: Dayton Product: Timberline MT Model: 98 TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: digital_aura1@hotmail.com

Details: I ordered some new Dayton Timberline MTs to replace some cheapo MTs I had before. These Dayton's are freaking awesome for the price! I ordered the 33x12.50 r15 tires. All I can say is at $125 a pop (mounted) they are worth every penny. They clean out mud and snow VERY good. They have 3 ply sidewalls and 6 ply tread. Dayton is a Bridgestone company and you can tell this tire has benefited from the more expensive tires Bridgestone offers. In my opinion there is no better bang for your buck tire out there which can complete with these. The only bad thing, it took 6 weeks to order these, since they are a new product and were on national backorder. Worth the wait though. Are these tires serious rockcrawling tires? No. But for trail usage and mild rock crawling they are great. Recommended

Date: 15JAN2003 Company: Teraflex Product: S3T Model: 98 TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: digital_aura1@hotmail.com

Details: I installed the Teraflex 3" lift kit (S3T) about a year ago now. All I can say are good things about this kit. The install was straight forward, the hardward included is high quality, and the kit is very complete. The ride quality is better than stock both onroad and offroad. I have received several thumbs up from other Jeep owners and the feedback is always positive. I have Rancho 9000 shocks mounted up with the kit. I give the performance of the kit a 9 out of 10. Just because very few things are perfect in my world. :) Highly Recommended If I had to do it over again, I would go for the Teraflex 4" Long Arm kit. Just just did not have the $$ to do that the first time.

Details: I bought a Teraflex 4" Long Arm lift through Trail Quest Inc. In Plain City, Ohio. They had the best price on the lift, short shaft kit, and cv driveshaft of any company on the net or in the magazines. Very nice people to work with. Give them a try.

Date: 18DEC2002 Company: teraflex Product: 4" long arm lift kit Model: 2000 tj sport Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: j_fullerc141@hotmail.com

Details: I am very happy with my teraflex lift. It took about 12 hours to install with the help of a friend. The hardest part was grinding off the factory lower control arm mounts. Instructions are easy to follow. The quality of the whole kit is excellent. I also put in a tera short shaft kit and cv style driveshaft. My speedo gear let go after 2 weeks of driving. Tera sent me a new one within 3 days of calling them. I had installed the gear in the wrong notch. The ride is great. I am running 33x12.50x15 BFG M/T KOs. Be sure to recheck all nuts and bolts as tera recommends. Excellent kit and company. I bought the kit through Trail Quest in Plain City, Ohio.

Date: 18DEC2002 Company: Dupli Color Product: Dupli Color Bed liner Model: 90 YJ Sahara Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: virgil_likes_rum@hotmail.com

Details: Check this out before you buy more expensive brands!! I went to my local auto parts store and bought a gallon of Dupli Color truck bed liner and the installation kit. This was such an easy project to do! The hardest part is the prep work. I pulled out all the interior and seats and junk out of my jeep and rebolted all the bolts. I then cut masking tape around the bolts to ease removal after the bed liner cured. I shouldnt have even wasted my time doing that. You could just roll some tape into a cone shape and stick it in the bolt holes. I followed the directions for sanding and used acetone to remove the clear coat and any wax or gunk. I got lazy sanding though and ended up just using the scuff pad that came with the installation kit. Application was simple (the first coat should be light and just use the paint brush for this) and quick. I ended up using 2 gallons and 1 pint because I wanted it really thick. At $39 a gallon it was way cheaper than Herculiner and just as effective. Road noise has gone down (I put the carpet back in on top of the liner) and this stuff doesnt peel or scratch. If you decide to do it, be sure and buy a can of the aerosol bed liner too; its so much easier than the brush for tight corners around the roll bar and stuff.

Date: 14DEC2002 Company: M.O.R.E. Product: shackle reversal kit Model: '79 CJ-7 Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: N8LZA@HAC.ORG

Details: I installed the kit three years ago. The ride really settled down,with no more wandering on the highway. The idea is to move the spring pivot to the rear of the front leaf spring to lessen the impact on the suspension. We also installed one on a friends '92 YJ with the same results. You need to do some welding to assemble, as well as drilling into the frame. But it's worth the torn knuckles...

Date: 1DEC2002 Company: IPF Product: 868 Model: YJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: erc114@excite.com

Details: Excellent set of lights! Highly recommended for those of you seeking a set of driving lights they through an incredible amount of light in two distinct patterns to the side and in a spot out in front of the vehicle. Kit was complete and simple to install. Only negative I noticed is that the mouse type switch (designed for minivans and leasees afraid to drill their dashes) is for the most part useless and adds to dash clutter. I would recommend doing what I did and wiring it to a standard illuminated switch, it is easy enough. Good value and excellent performance!

Details: These tires are unbeleaveable offroad. On a near straight up hill last week in Moble Al. these tires clawed to the top in wet red clay then after 3 other jeeps tried one with a better lift then mine and bigger tires then mine 35 inch mtr's none made it So after they all gave up my new 33-13.5 - 15's did it again. For the offroader who wants uncompromized traction you need to give these tires a try and at 118$ apiece they are a bargain.

Date: 26OCT2002 Company: Bell Tech Product: Lowering Shackles Model: 91 XJ Laredo Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: bass4hvn@yahoo.com

Details: These units are used to lower full-size trucks. Well Jeep didn't do it backwards like they did and the Shackles work to lift an XJ about 1.5"- 2". They are built for full-size, so they hold up well to the weight of an XJ. They can be picked up for about $30 a pair. I use my Jeep for alot of mountain driving and have none of the sway associated with "cheap" shackles. I highly recommend using these. They can also be bought in Junkyards for dirt cheap. I do recommend using poly bushings in your springs though.

Details: These tires are kind of expensive, but are probably the best all around Jeep tire made. The provide excellent traction in rock, sand, and mud. They also have less road wine then a BFG AT, and ,as I've put about 10 K on them, look like they are going to last awhile. The only real drawback is they are signifigantly more expensive then the comparable BFG sizes.

Virtually no roar on the highway.Have had these for about 6000 miles with no noticable wear.They are a directional tire so you are limited as far as rotation.Good all around tire!!!!

Details: I bought some of the new BF Mud K/Ms for my TJ, 33"x12.5"x15s. There has not been a condition I haven't been able to get out of with these tires. Living in Colorado there are alot of different conditions tires have to put up with. Even down to 5 lbs p.s.i on the trail they do not give up. Previously I bought the BF A/T K/Os and they were good too but not as good as the Muds are on the trail. Definitely a great purchase in my book.

Went thru suspension upgrades, lifts, engine swaps and rebuilds to carpeting. They call me when they think I ordered the wrong part or when somethings back ordered.I have had nothing but the best experience with this company on every purchase. I have kept up with this hobby, in part from my experience with Four Wheel Drive Hardware Inc. Keep up the good work guys!!

Date: 3APR2002 Company: Bestop Product: Super Soundbar Model: 89 YJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: silverHazel@hotmail.com

Details: This soundbar is great because its adjustable! You can either have it horizontal when you have backseat passengers, or tilt it slightly forward (30 degrees) when no ones in back for a MUCH clearer sound. I find that this position is perfect for highway driving with the top down, because the sound is directed toward the front, not toward your Jeep's floor. 70 mph, topless, with cars alongside and I could still hear the cd!! It comes with 6.5 Sony Xplodes; I use mine with Pioneer front speakers and it sounds great. The adjustable map lights are also very handy. However, this soundbar mounts differently than most - it clamps onto your center rollbar with a U-bolt - and the place that installed it for me did it incorrectly at first (but it was an easy fix), so if you get one make sure the U-bolt is in the correct position when installing it. It's more expensive than the other soundbars out there, but in my opinion it was well worth the money!!

Date: 26MAR2002 Company: BesTop Product: BesTop Oversize Tire Carrier Model: '99 TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: chrisdewey@alumni.clemson.edu

Details: I love the BesTop Oversize Tire Swing!!! I had originally bought an Olympic Tire Swing, not realizing that it would block the taligate so that it could only opened half way. I have a 15x8 American Racing Kong Wheel with a 32x11.50 spare. Only being able to open the tailgate half way was okay until we got a 95 lb. Yellow Lab! I got the BesTop carrier locally for about the same as what I had originally paid for Olympic Tire Swing. The instructions were clear and accurate. It is a bit of a pain initially adjusting the tension and leveling it, but the smooth operation more than makes up for it. So far I have not had to make any further adjustments I did tighten the no-slip nuts sooner than I was told to, but that was my bad. They did not want to back off! I lost a little paint in the process, but the lack of bullet-proof paint is my only complaint and it's minor. The carrier has been absolutely silent around town, but I have yet to take it off road. I can't imagine that rock crawling will be more jarring than dring on stock springs, coil spaces and Dick Cepek shocks! It's hard to tell from the pictures, but the carrier anchors to the base of the sportbar at the top and to the body mount underneath. It's not going anywhere! Operation is also easy as the carrier moves with the tailgate. It's a lot of weight to move so you're not going to open the tailgate by pulling the latch or just give it a fling, but it swings silently. That would be awkward anyway since your wrist is between the tailgate and tire. Opening the tailgate slightly then grabbing the top of the tailgate works just fine and only requires one hand. You will have to push and pull it the entire way, as there is some resistence. Closing the tailgate can also be done with one hand, but you will want to keep your hand on the gate (or over the latch) as you close it. Otherwise the tailgate bounces back leaving it latched, but not entirely closed. Again, you get used to it and it's a simple, one-hand operation. Bottom line is that this thing was reasonably priced, easy to install (except for taking out the torx bolts at the base of the sport bar due to lots of factory paint), works well and doesn't take away from your departure angle. I would say it's an excellent product.

Date: 22MAR2002 Company: Interco Product: 31" x 9" 15 Swampers Radials Model: 97 TJ 2.5L Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: irwin_bob@hotmail.com

Details: I ordered the 31 inch per 9 inch Swamper radials. These tires are just awsome. They fit nice in the stock flares, make a beautiful lil hum between 35/40mph (music to my ears!), and handle very well. With all the engine upgrades i dont feel any difference in power, except at the green light (but then again, im not driving a 'Vette am I?). They look great too, almost no one has them in my area, and all the other jeepers look at my baby with envy... hehehehe... especially when they drive their 4.0L Saharas, and i got my little 2.5L. I highly reccomend them Got them $110 a piece, set of 5 at www.tyresinternational.com No lift was necessary, and i got to keep the stock full face wheels. jeep on! (O||||O)

Date: 2FEB2002 Company: ON_Products Product: ON_Products Underhood Hi-Lift Jack Mount for a TJ Model: 1999 Wrangler Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: Wind_Danzer@hotmail.com

Details: Another great investment, I was informed of this product by the owner of the company after asking about a good mounting location on another BB. Most of the weight of the jack is on a bracket that is installed over the battery while a second bracket is installed on the drivers side body that hold the support rod which supports the top part. Very stout and it has a good mechanism to hold the jack in place so it doesn't rattle and move around the engine compartment. The jack is hidden from view, kept clean and dry (provided you don't fly through a huge mud or water puddle) and is easily accessible. The only reason I'm not using it now is because I altered my air intake making it impossible to use.

Date: 2FEB2002 Company: Kilby Enterprises Product: Kilby Gas Tank Skid Plate Model: 1999 Wrangler Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: Wind_Danzer@hotmail.com

Details: One of the best investments I have ever made. Not only is it 3/16 steel that cover the whole exposed area on the gas tank, it is bombproof and raises the take a full inch over stock. It also has a sloped back to help with departure angles. I have also had the full weight of the Jeep on it and nothing more than a few scratches occured in the paint. Of course that is to be expected, especally since they come unpainted and you have to DIY. Brad Kilby is a joy to work with and I will be looking forward to all the other products he will come out with.

Date: 2FEB2002 Company: Younger Brothers Product: Heavy Duty Bumper and Tire Carrier Model: 1999 Wrangler Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: Wind_Danzer@hotmail.com

Details: I ordered this product looking for a good way to carry my spare tire while also looking for good protection offroad and on the highway. It has been on my Jeep now through 5 wheeling trips, held the weight of the Jeep on a few rocks and has been backed into a tree. Not one scratch or buckle on the finish. This rack comes with a Hi-Lift holder and a CB antenna mount while the bumper comes with a 2 inch receiver in the center of the bumper (no loss of ground clearance!!!), two shackle mounts and a frame tie in kit. Provided you could handle the wait for this product (mine was about 9 months - thay had a heck of a backlog of orders), you will get the best aftermarket system on the market.

Date: 2FEB2002 Company: Powertrax/4wd Hardware Product: Lockright locker Model: 90 Jeep YJ w/D35c axle Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: sparkysffd69@yahoo.com

Details: I ordered this locker along with an OME lift kit and some other parts for my Jeep. The box was marked "for Dana 35c- clip" axles, but the parts were for a non-c-clip axle. I called them, and emailed them, and within 24 hours I had a complete replacement locker. I then returned the wrongly marked product, at their expense. Very pleased with this product and BOTH companies who were very concerned with customer satisfaction. I would highly recommend them to anybody.

Date: 16JAN2002 Company: ARB/Old Man Emu Product: Old Man Emu Shocks for 3-4 inch lift Model: 97' Jeep Wrangler TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: Grimmjpr@Juno.com

Details: Well words can not fully describe how great these shocks are...I have a 3 inch Teraflex kit and I had the Doetsch Tech shocks that Mepco recommended with their 3 inch kit. Well after almost 2 years of hard use my Jeep started to ride kinda funny...I really didn't think it was the shocks I mean there not even 2 years old yet.....boy was I wrong! I figured out it was the shocks after eliminating other problems it could be. I just got done putting the Old Man Emu shocks on took them for a ride and WOW these shocks are great I agree with Jeepnmike. I think anyone looking to replace his/her shocks should really consider these Old Man Emu shocks.

Details: This product is great. I got it as a gift along with two speakers. The box keeps the speakers dry bu putting them under the dash, and they sound great. Easy install as well.

Date: 25NOV2001 Company: Trail Ready Product: Expedition Gurard Model: 99 TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: Marcg2000@aol.com

Details: The bumper and guard look awesome!! They look like nothing else out there, the front of the jeep is completly covered and protected from anything that you can think of. I have a warn M6000 winch and that is now behind a 1/4 inch think plate of steel from the front sides and part of the top. The bumper hurt my approch angle just a little bit but not really because if i approach something at an angle with just one tire at a time I have almost a vertical approach angle! The winch is loacated slightly farther ahead of the location of it with the warn mounting bracket, but since it is better protected i feel fine about it. The only down falls to the bumper that i ran into is that it took a LONG time to come, they said 4-6 weeks but it ended up being 4 months, partly because the bumper that i ordered was one of a kind so i understand that it took longer than expected but it was still a little long. It was WELL worth the wait though. The bumper installation was a snap, the hardest part was getting the old bumper and winch bracket off because the torx head screws and i keep breaking every torx bit i try. Once the old one was off it is just a matter of lining up the winch bracket and centerpunch the location for the new screws. i had to redrill some of the holes for mounting the winch because for somereason they did not line up which wasen't easy through the steel plate, but it worked out in the end. the guard itself is seperate from the winch mour for ease of installation, and is almost endlessly adjustable to get it where you want it, once mounted it sticks above all body panels so incase of that ever dreaded roll over it will protect the fenders and hood. The guard dose block some headlight space but is still driveable at night which just means you have to get some good quality lights. After installed your jeep will look like none other.

Date: 6OCT2001 Company: Old Man Emu Product: Old Man Emu shocks Model: 95 YJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: Jeepnmike@att.net

Details: I love these shocks! At first I thought that getting new shocks would not make that big a difference but boy was I ever wrong! I am running a mild RE 2.5 inch lift and 31 Pro Comp MT's (I have reviewed the tires on this site before under my old email Mjeeps) and had the Doetsch Tech shocks that came with lift kit. I felt the shocks were worn out because when I would hit a bump at speed the front end would go up and down 2 or 3 times. When I received the OME shocks after talking to them first to make sure they would fit my application I was impressed with how beefy they were. They have a two year warranty on them and were massive compared to the Doetsch tech's. They have this metal clip on them to keep the shock compressed to fit in the box and when you undo the retaining clip the shock lengthens a good bit for lots of articulation. Installation was easy, just be sure to use lots wd 40 on your old bolts if they were rusty and muddy like mine were! I also recommend that you use new bolts when installing the shocks since your old ones are probably like mine and all messed up. The only thing I found is that I had to spread the lower mounting brackets apart to get the bottom bushings to fit. No big deal. OME also makes a long travel shock but that would require a new upper shock mount and maybe extended brake lines (M.O.R.E. makes these now for the YJ).

Date: 18SEP2001 Company: Jacob's Electronics Product: Jacob's Offroad Ignition Model: 97 TJ 2.5L Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: irwin_bob@hotmail.com

Details: Had it installed with the Uphill Module. This stuff is so awsome. When put together with header, muffler, fan, intake, and tb spacer, the difference is amazing. A bit expensive, but worth the money!

Date: 21AUG2001 Company: Bushwacker Product: 6" Fender Flares Model: TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: steve@kinemedics.com

Details: I purchased the adhesive fender flares from Bushwaker for my 98 TJ with a 2" lift. I had some issues (clearnace & adhering) with the product. I got in touch with Bushwaker through their web site. I recieved a letter within days and new bolt on versions of the flares within a week. A GREAT COMPANY WHO UNDERSTANDS CUSTOMER SERVICE.

Date: 20AUG2001 Company: Teraflex Product: Quick Disconnects Model: YJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: lndwarrior@hotmail.com

Details: I was at the end of a very long, frustrating day of wrenching. I had accompl;ished nothing for 6 hours of work and was ready to quit for the day. I had bought the disconnects the day before but had more pressing problems to deal with on the Jeep. Before I packed up my tools for the night I figured I'd just read the install instructions & relax for a few minutes. Well, maybe I'll just pull my bolt on disconnects off so I'll get a jump start on installing the QD's the next day. "Step one, screw the rounded post onto the lower bolts." Ok. "Step two..." Ten minutes later I'm done! Every once in a freakin while I come across a product even I can't screw up. It was a pleasant surprise to find such a simple idiot-proof product. Afterwards I took them on and off a few times - no problems. I can't hear them on the road. At the end of a long day they really helped to improve my attitude! Very happy I bought these.

Date: 15AUG2001 Company: Skyjacker Product: Rockready 8" TJ suspension Model: TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: SkyHighTJ@aol.com

Details: This kit is it! It is quite extensive to install I did it myself in about 5 days with no help. It requires much labor to put on, but when done it rides awesome, flexes great, and is overall just plain sweet! I just came back from Camp jeep 01' and now I've put about 3K on since I installed and have had no problems, except with breaking quick disconnects, the Jeep is so high, and naturally wants to flex on anything...literally you must be careful how fast you go over curbs(for instance when going around someone...whatev) other than that it rocks, but I plan on swapping out the skyjacker disco's for an antirock swaybar but for now, skyjacker was happy to replace the discos...overall its awesome!

Date: 8AUG2001 Company: PPW Product: Premier Power Welder Model: '98 TJ 4.0 Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: ted.cacioppi@cliffordchance.com

Details: I won some money off it at a raffle, so I figured what the hell I want to learn to weld anyway. I slapped it in (great cust service on tech support) and was able to practice running a few beads, but not much. Soon thereafter, I slid/backed into a tree and tore the mounting flange off my spare tire carrier. I had no room for the spare in the back. I was at a major 4x4 trail run event. So I pulled into a staging area, fired it up, used the elec outlet to power my grinder to prepare the thing, and welded away. It worked! A strong, acceptable trail fix was soon had. Soon I was letting another guy weld a tie rod back together, after having cut some angle iron for him with the grinder. The next morning at 6:30 am I was welding another guy's differential innards so that he could drive home. So beware - its an excellent product, but it'll make you friends you never thought you had.

Date: 18JUL2001 Company: borla Product: borla header Model: TJ 4.0 Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: kebm2@excite.com

Details: Got the header from 4wheel parts wholesalers. They matched competitors price, plus free subscription to their Offroad Adventures magazine. Install took about 6 hours, but it was fairly easy. Jeep has more power now, and requires alot less downshifting for hills, etc.

Date: 17JUL2001 Company: JKS Product: JKS disconnects Model: YJ 1994 Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: astreet@usatoday.com

Details: These things are rock solid. They feel solid out iof the box and they are easy to put on (minus the ball joint you have to seperate on the stock disconnect). If any on eid looking to buy great disconnects, definately look into JKS.

Date: 16JUL2001 Company: Cape Conversions Product: "Juce Box T.F.I." Model: CJ7 Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: jaxdon@earthlink.net

Details: I ordered the TFI Juce Box from Cape conversions. It arrived in record time, and the installation was easily accomplished. Cape Conversion quickly answered a couple of E-Mails that I sent them. The only change on installation was to solder the connections, as I dislike the crimped on ones. When I finished, the CJ started right up, and setteled down to a nice, smooth idle. On a test drive, it ran smoother, and had more power. On the freeway, The ole 258, "wound out" very nicely. The price of this unit is about 1/3 of the Jacobs or similar units. I am very pleased with this modification.

Date: 14JUL2001 Company: Dynomax, Catco Product: Ultra Flow muffler and mandrel bent pipes, Catco hi-flow catalytic converter Model: 98 TJ 2.5 Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: mygiftwou@aol.com

Details: Just put on a Catco hi-flow converter, Dynomax Ultra Flow and 2.5" mandrel bent pipes. What a difference...the engine really feels like it has opened up. There's a definite increase in power and they sound great...a little importish, but I think it's mostly the fact that I have a 4 cylinder. Can't really say if it improved gas mileage cause I haven't been shifting until it hits about 4500 RPM.

Date: 26JUN2001 Company: SkyJacker Product: Rock Ready 8" suspension Model: TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: SkyHighTJ@aol.com

Details: This kit is it....I had a tough time w/ the long-arm choices out there, but im am well pleased with my choice. The skyjacker kit is solid, Jeep drives great on the road with 8" suspension and 1" body thats not often you can say that....also performs amazing offroad!!

Date: 26JUN2001 Company: DayStar Product: Lift Spacers Model: 88 XJ Laredo Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: jcdavis@sympatico.ca

Details: Black poly. Installed in back yard (too tired to head to garage) with basic tools and a hi-lift. Only had to remove my shocks and springs to install the spacers. 2 hour install time including a coffee break.

Date: 19JUN2001 Company: Olympic Product: Olympic Rock Rails Model: 98 XJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: jmikula@bigfoot.com

Details: Easy to install, I did it myself. Minimal drilling (I did use a drill bit extension to make it easier) They look good. They fit good. And over the last 2 years, I have pounded the s**T out of them. I have got dings, scratches, and DENTS all over the undersides. They took all the punishment I could dish out!

Date: 4JUN2001 Company: Cape Cod Conversions Product: JuiceBox Gold 6 Model: 258 / 4.2L jeeps Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: lcoppenr@yahoo.com

Details: Very simple and straight forward way of making a 258 run much more smoothly. Kit took about 1/2 hour to install and my 258 actually idles smoothly. You can put this same kit together yourself, but you'll end up spending darn close to what this kit costs.

Date: 1JUN2001 Company: Painless Wiring Product: Customer Service Model: N/A Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: jstark@halla.on.ca

Details: Customer service is top notch. This company cares about quality and will stand behind it. I am very pleased and will buy Painless again.

Date: 25MAY2001 Company: ?????? Product: J.C. whitney dual exhaust Model: dual exhaust for 304 v-8 Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: robert6688@hotmail.com

Details: I ordered this kit for my off-road only jeep. I arrived in good shape 4 days later. They were very easy to install as they fit really well. Had to do a litte trimming with a chop saw because they were to long for my CJ-5. Dont use any of the bolts that come with it, get some grade 5 or 8. They cost 1.50 at napa. Be sure to buy or borrow the correct tools needed to install. You dont have to weld anything but I went ahead and welded mine. If you check the clamps often the slip fit should not be a problem. Tools used: mig welder, socket set, chop saw, sawzal(to remove old exhaust). Alright now to try them out. These pipes are loud, but they do give a good power increase. Watch out for the cops and then rackem' off.

Date: 23MAY2001 Company: Performance Products Product: Mirror Relocation Bracket Model: '97 TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: EHStaley7@aol.com

Details: These brackets are a true "bolt-on." They come with everything you need to install them. The only problem is they get moved when the door swings out and you cant see the passenger side mirror with the upper door skin in, but if you go doorless the majority of the time they are an excellent buy.

Date: 21MAY2001 Company: Pro Comp Product: Explorer Pro Comp Spring Kit Model: CJ5 2-1/2" Springgs Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: synchronicity@frontier.net

Details: Definitely not too stiff. Easy install. Ran 10 days w/o shocks (offroad only) to break in springs. Good to go.

Date: 16MAY2001 Company: Herculiner Product: Herculiner kit Model: YJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: erc114@excite.com

Details: Excellent product put in a week ago and love it so much simpler than carpet and nicer looking than bare floors! Also prevents the nasty habit of carpets to hold moisture causing mold and rust. Application was easy once everything was out though it must be noted get an extra roller because it really requires 3 coats (you get two rollers with the kit) to get complete coverage or you get the occasional speckled area. I left mine a little light so I could apply a touch up coat later to coverup any gouging/fading/wear etc. Take your time do the prepwork and this will be one of your favorite modifications!

Date: 16MAY2001 Company: Pace Setter Product: TFX exhaust Model: 98 Wrangler Sahara Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: PRGOLF03@aol.com

Details: After getting the old muffler and pipe off, it was a breeze. Being only 16, it took 3 hours to get the old pipe off with the help of a friend. The new one just went into place after a few hits with a rubber mallet, then the three bolts and its done. I'm not sure of the performance gain, but it sure sounds great, the chrome tip is nice too.

Date: 8MAY2001 Company: Optima Product: Yellow Top battery Model: 97 TJ Sahara Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: comtian_positivism@hotmail.com

Details: This battery is great, though a little pricey here in Canada. It's smaller then the stock dealer battery but provides all the power for my offroad and driving lights (1 set of 150watt KC daylighters, a set of KC foglights 80 watts) and a set of road boy driving lights (100 watt bulbs) not to mention power my stereo without fading my cab lights. It's a sweet product, the electrolyte is gel so it will never freeze and the spiraled plates create better conductivity for ignition.

Date: 29APR2001 Company: Four Wheel Drive Hardware Product: Tire Carrier/Bumper Combo Model: 1986 CJ7 Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: livetowheel@yahoo.com

Details: The combo was much more than I expected, it is a heavy duty addition that I highly recommend. We had a late winter trip where we ran into four foot snow drifts fifty to three hundred feet long. Like a dummy I neglected to bring my rear clevace. I proceded to hook a strap onto my spare tire carrier to pull a co-wheelier out of a long drift. I heard a pop and thought that I had really messed something up, I kept pulling until he was free. When I looked at the damage all that I found was that I had popped the sheer pin on the carrier handle. The only thing that pulled the low rider land cruiser through the drift was the tire carrier.To say the least I was impressed with the timpken bearing design. The only hints I have is if you are planning to put diamond plate corners on, is to use the spacers included in the install kit. It will give you the clearance needed for your gas filler. By the way, everything lined up perfect and was an easy install.

Date: 29APR2001 Company: 4 Wheel Drive Hardware Product: Accessories Model: CJ, YJ, TJ. Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: Jeep2Deep@cs.com

Details: I have dealt with and ordered from 4 Wheel Drive Hardware repeatedly and highly recommend them. They have always provided me with excellent customer service as well as competitive pricing and reliable shipping. Next time you purchase an accessory for your CJ, YJ or TJ, give 4 Wheel Drive Hardware a try and I don't think you will be disappointed...unless you buy a Steel Horse product and you can't blame them for that!!!

Date: 29APR2001 Company: ARB Product: Safari Snorkel Model: 1999 TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: Jeep2Deep@cs.com

Details: This thing is sweet. Having A/C complicated the installation to some degree but it looks awesome and should help prevent any water intrusion into the motor as well as minimize dust into the air filter. It came with excellent stainless hardware and fits very well. If people spend thousands of dollars to insure the vehicle, why not spend a couple of hundred to insure the motor?

Date: 14APR2001 Company: ARB Product: ARB air compressor Model: TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: rivkev@hotmail.com

Details: The compressor runs the lockers perfectly. However, I was burning up fuses when using the ARB tire inflation kit. ARB advised replacing the tube fuse with a weatherproof blade-style fuse, and it's never troubled me since.

Date: 8APR2001 Company: Goodyear Product: MT/R Tires Model: N/A Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: jtkeefe@cvn.com

Details: These tires are great! Quiet on the road, great off-road. Got a good deal at Walmart - $139 per tire, 31x10.50. Try 'em, you'll like them.

Date: 7APR2001 Company: Borla Product: Borla Cat-back system Model: 2000 TJ Sport Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: ranma@coqui.net

Details: This is great. After 2 weeks of problems with the shiping price, it finaly got home. Intructions are easy to follow (although it's just connecting 3 pipes). The only problem was taking the stock muffler out. It took me 2 hours and 2 days of neck pain. The new one took 15 minutes to install and it sounds great, and you feel the extra hp and torque. I didn't put the tip because I didn't like how it looked with my Jeep and I didn't want to crush it between a rock and my bumper.

Date: 30MAR2001 Company: skyjacker Product: skyjacker 2.5" standard lift Model: 2000 TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: doerschuk@hotmail.com

Details: This kit is great. A friend and I put it on on a saturday afternoon. Fairly complete and extremely easy to do yourself. It was so easy that my friend and I were convinced that we did something wrong. The only thing the kit does not include are the sway bar discos, other than that you can put it on and go! I only recently did this so I have not had the time to test the capabilites off-road. I definitely recommend this lift to anybody who wants room for 32's and doesn't want to spend a whole lot of money (I got mine for about 550).

Date: 25MAR2001 Company: accel Product: accel super coil Model: 1980 CJ5 258 Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: trembatd@juno.com

Details: I had a rough idle in my Jeep I installed the Accel Super coil along with a distibutor cap and rotor from an '85 ford 300-I6 and heavy duty 8.5MM wires. I am not sure if it was the super coil or not but the I think it was part of it the idle cleared up and the low end seems much better. Before I spent money on the jacobs or MSD to get the better performance I would buy the Super coil and convert every thing over to the Ford cap and rotor it bolts right in. I really like the super coil. To find out more about the ford mod see the Off-Road bulleten boards and find the Team Rush conversion.

Details: I've been going to this store for about 7 years now. I am very big on customer help and opinions from people who know what they are talking about. I always get my questions answered and the parts I'm looking for. I started out with a regular p/u truck, then I bought a show truck and they helped me find the right stuff to compete very strongly at many shows. Now I have a Jeep (TJ) and I'm really thankful that they are there the ups and downs of offroad with they're vast product selection and fantastic mechanics. I think it's one of the best to go to for parts for anything from a Jeep, muscle car, import, monster truck, lowrider, and on and on. I've seen some pretty sweet things roll out of they're garrage. Check out their web site for more info I think it's worth it.Thank you for reading my opinion.

Details: Very stout, this bumper can take a hit and won't even hurt the powdercoat. It toke me a while to decide which bumper I wanted to go with, and I finally choose ARB and I love this bumper. (ARB ROCKS)

Date: 19MAR2001 Company: 4wd Parts? Product: Hood Lock Model: YJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: jamgood96@hotmail.com

Details: Seems pretty sturdy. When it's locked a latch blocks the hood release latch keeping the hood from being opened. Seems pretty strong and sturdy. Haven't tried or had someone try breaking into it. But I'm fairly comfident in it.

Date: 19MAR2001 Company: Husky Product: Husky Floor Liners Model: YJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: jamgood96@hotmail.com

Details: These fit great! They contour to the floor very good. They have nice little nubs on the back to stay put in carpeted vehicles. I only have Herculiner on the inside of my Jeep so the nubs do nothing. I was actually worried about them tearing up the Herculiner, so I cut off all the nubs. Man, sore hand! Good product!

Details: Great company, great bumper, great price. Asked for some modifications, they performed at no extra charge. Even with mods, received in 2-1/2 weeks. Instructions were clear, and everything lined up as it should.

Date: 12MAR2001 Company: Sky Jacker Product: Sky Jacker TJ Disconnects Model: TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: hoguel@gfusd.k12.ca.us

Details: These are by far the best disconnects out there. The feature a center section which can be completely removed and poly. bushings throughout. The not only look sharp (Gold color plated similar to the tie rod) but also improved my ride...Seriously. I had a pair of Pro Comp sway bar extensions prior to these and the Sky Jackers made a huge improvement. ONE NOTE HOWEVER, the pins used to disconnect are a little snug and seem to be somewhat of a burden, nevertheless, I have been told that these will begin to loosen up after a few miles on the highway!

Date: 8MAR2001 Company: BDS Product: 3" BDS Model: TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: zimmerman@chartermi.net

Details: Just put on a 3" BDS lift and it is awesome! It gave me more like 4", but it the most complete kit and cheaper than all others I have priced and it is good stuff to not made cheap.

Date: 5MAR2001 Company: Firestik Product: Firefly CB 3ft ant. Model: 93 YJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: erc114@excite.com

Details: Good antenna, reasonable performance for such a shorty mounted on a bumpstop. It is a very durable antenna and has taken numerous hits from branches without a problem (note that I do have it on a spring), it is also thin enough it has a rather attractive look on the Jeep compared to its full weight sibling. Surprisingly it doesn't beat the top much and has only done so on one occasion Since January and that was driving 80mph with 30mph plus crosswinds, this is acceptable IMHO otherwise even at fairly high speeds and sudden stops it hasnt hit the stop. My only complaint was it came up with a very high SWR upon initial testing (which was easy to tune out with the tunable tip) which was surprising since they claim they should be between 1 and 1.5 out of the box and this was with a firestick matched cable system. The biggest contributors to this condition could be the spring. Overall an excellent product and I would buy one again though I may step up to the 4ft. JB's Jeep Acc. Grade: A-

Date: 23FEB2001 Company: Tuffy Product: Overhead Console Model: 00 Jeep TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: saunderscc@vaw124.navy.mil

Details: This product is great and worth the money. The only hard part was the wiring for the radio. Each wire had to be lengthend seperatly. Once done though what an investment. I fill much safer with my radio there than in the dash, it is very secure and sturdy. A must.

Details: I wasn't too sure about my decision to buy these. But after I received them I was amazed. These things look real!!! The craftsmanship is truly remarkable.

Date: 12FEB2001 Company: Tera Flex Product: TJ Rear Adjustable Track Bar Model: N/A Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: jeepco@aol.com

Details: I had fuel tank skid support interference problems with the stock track bar. Putting the adjustable track bar on not only solved the interference problem, but also improved high speed handling....the TJ is more predictable. This is an easy install too!

Details: Beautiful!!!! The ride is a little stiffer than stock but you can tell there is a difference in the hight. Looks more agressive too. Great little lift for people on a tight budget and/or don't want to go big.

Date: 6FEB2001 Company: www.onboardair.com Product: On board air kit Model: '98 TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: ted.cacioppi@cliffordchance.com

Details: Put in a york, york brackets, and tank from the above for a '98 TJ with AC. You have to do the fittings and pressure switch - I re-used my ARB wiring harness, and run the York at 100-140 PSI, with a manual regualtor to step it down to 90 PSI for the ARBs. Well thought out brackets, good product. It does require that you research and execute the plumbing and wiring. The ability to air up fast and run air tools on the trails is really good.

Date: 24JAN2001 Company: central4wd.com Product: Husky Floor Liners Model: 1993 Wrangler Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: dianewinder@hotmail.com

Details: This company is one of the best I've found out on the web as well as being a whole lot cheaper than most i.e. 4 wheel Parts Wholesalers. Customer service was excellent and my product arrived in less than 3 days. They are also very quick to answer email enquiries and give advice.

Date: 22JAN2001 Company: ARB Product: OME 50mm suspension lift Model: 1998 TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: carrolljs@hotmail.com

Details: I just put on the 50mm OME suspension lift with the 10mm trim packers with the OME nitro-charger shocks. I got way more lift than the 60mm it said. The handling and the performance of this suspension is unparalled. I highly recommend Old Man Emu!

Date: 21JAN2001 Company: Gemini Sales Product: Stainless Steel Parts Model: N/A Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: sethhomer@home.com

Details: I ordered all sorts of stainless parts locally an paid through the nose, so I went online asd found gemini-sales.com they had everything I wanted and more. Thier prices were cheaper, even with the shipping charge on top. I returned all the parts I bought locally, and saved myself over $200.

Date: 19JAN2001 Company: Ox Trax Product: Ox Trax Locker Model: Cherokee Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: dave1960@prodigy.net

Details: For those of you looking for a bulletproof, manual locker for your front Dana 30 this is the one. Cheaper than an ARB without the hassles of air lines, o-rings or an air compressor. A simple, but thick shift cable is the means by which this locker is activated. This locker is heavy duty and also comes with a heavier differential cover with a drain and fill plug, thus eliminating the hassle of removing your cover to change the gear lube. So if your looking for for a hassle free, heavy duty, 100% lock up in the front like I have been for 5 years this is definately the product for you.

Date: 19JAN2001 Company: Poweraid Product: Throttle Body Spacer Model: 1997 TJ 2.5L Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: takedowns@yahoo.com

Details: Fairly simple installation and a definite gain in power and gas mileage. Well worth the price at $70.00.

Date: 12JAN2001 Company: Borla Product: Borla Headers and Cat back System Model: TJ Sport Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: hoguel@gfusd.k12.ca.us

Details: This combined system is awesome. Installed it will run you about $1000. Yes it's not cheap, but I really believe it is worh it. I got about 15+ horses out of it a better mileage. It made a great difference in torque and higher RPM. The sound is great, a little deeper than stock, but not so loud you wake the neighborhood. I highly recommend.

Date: 6JAN2001 Company: Powertrax Product: No-Slip Model: F-150 2WD Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: gwinkel05@cs.com

Details: I recently purchased a Ford LSD (8.8 31 spline)on ebay, only to find out that I needed a different carrier to be compatible with ABS. In utter dissappointment(since I had my truck torn apart, and I'd replaced the carrier bearings) I decided to order a Powertrax No-Slip unit. Installation was very easy, and the unit is performing as advertised. My truck is a manual transmission, so I do feel a bit more drivetrain looseness, but after a week or so of driving, it's barely noticeable. It is quiet, and performs very well. During normal operation, it performs like an open differential. Only when turning off of a side road, or out of a parking lot into traffic, under moderate power, do I feel some tire "chirp". Other than the no slip, my truck is bone stock. I highly recommend this unit to anyone who is looking for the ultimate in traction, with minimal side effects. P.S. Look for the LSD on ebay.

Date: 3JAN2001 Company: Bosch Product: Platinum Plugs Model: YJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: erc114@excite.com

Details: After all the discussion over the Bosch plugs. I decided to up my schedule and get a set. I have used these before in the 4.0L engines with pretty decent results though I had forgotten how much of a difference they made! The vehicle feels much more responsive, I dont know if I gained any horsepower but the vehicle runs quieter, accelerates faster and smoother! I am very very impressed! Though i can not attribute all of these gains to the plugs as they guy who had the vehicle before me had them gapped terribly varying from so small it was ungaugeable to .060 and the plugs were mixed manufacturer....ugh. From my experience these are an excellent addition to a Fuel injected Jeep! Definitely worth the little bit of extra cost! Take care good luck!

Date: 31DEC2000 Company: Olympic 4x4 Product: Rock Bumper w/receiver Model: Wrangler TJ 2001 Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: imajeepman@home.com

Details: I bought matching front and rear bumpers from Quadratec. The construction detail is good, not great, but the materials are very beefy. I had to use washers for spacers on the rear bolts that go into the factory bumper bracket to keep from bending the bracket when I torqued the bolts. Both bumpers lined up perfectly with the bolt holes. I only have two complaints. First, the rear receiver hitch pin hole was drilled too high and I had to grind it out a little to get the pin through. Second, there is no place to mount the license plate on the front bumper. I drilled two holes to the side of the receiver to accomodate this. All in all, it's a great value for the price.

Date: 28DEC2000 Company: Poweraide Product: Throttle body spacer Model: TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: cevery@reil.com

Details: I ordered the TBS through Macromotive.com and receieved it immediately. It was incredibly easy to install, it took me 20min. Works really well with some noticeable kick to it and has increased milage a bit. Only draw is that it whisles (vacuum leak sound) with hard acceleration. But it does not bother me. This along with the Airraid/ K+N intake works Great!

Date: 21DEC2000 Company: Hidden Hitch Product: 3500Lb 2" reciever Model: 93 YJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: erc114@excite.com

Details: Excellent product, incredibly strongly built and it has held up to my abuse. Install was very simple though they did short me one wire puller so I had to reuse one and some of the bolts that went into the rear frame cover were a little long but nothing that couldnt be fixed with a grinder. As for function it drops a little lower than I like but no lower than the gas tank so I dont think it really has that much effect on ground clearance. Highly recommended product JB's evaluation grade: A-

Date: 12DEC2000 Company: Leon Rosser Product: Leon Rosser Jeep Model: overall Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: MsKitty269@aol.com

Details: I ordered a locker and a Tiger Top for my C75. Came in 3 days. Tiger Top was 60 dollars cheaper than ANY other company I could find and was complete. Knowlegable staff, exceptional customer service. I would recommend dealing with Rosser Jeep.

Date: 10DEC2000 Company: Warn Product: Warn M8000 Model: 95 YJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: Mjeeps@aol.com

Details: This has got to be the best value light to medium duty winch for the money! Installation was a breeze except for lining up the spacers on the frame rails while trying to lay the winch down on top. I would recommend using some art putty to stick the spacers down. This past weekend I had to use the winch on a rock that had me in a crevice pointing the front end to the sky. All the weight of the jeep was on the cable and it just kept pulling. You must also purchase the winch accessory kit to go with it. The clevis hitch and snatch block are first rate and are very strong. We had to use both help a fallen Samurai and they did their job. Order the stuff from Clemson 4Wheel Drive on their website and you can't go wrong. I ordered it on a Sunday and it got here on a Tuesday.

Date: 6DEC2000 Company: Turbo City Product: Air Tube and TBI Model: 2.5 with 5spd tj Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: ho1ski@aol.com

Details: Bought the air tube, TBI, Jet performance module, and TFX cat-back system for 2.5 5-spd TJ and have no complaints. Best thing I did for my TJ. Better throttle response and great mid-range power. Only down side is 4-HI is a little more doggie. But in 4-Low, hang on.

Date: 6DEC2000 Company: Skyjacker Product: 4" Double flex lift Model: 2000 TJ Sport Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: hivolt@swbell.net

Details: Unreal!! Coming up on a year since I installed and still no sag and nothing has broke. I am still running 3.07/opens and can go most places a leaf sprung, lockered rig can go. That's the honest to God truth!! The disconnects work great after you label the top and which side. You wouldn't believe the flex I get. I strongly suggest this set up. I also have 1-3/4" spacer up front and 1" in rear and am able to run 35's. They do make alot of popping noise when wet due to no rubber but I'll take it!!!

Date: 4DEC2000 Company: Explorer Pro Comp Product: Pro Comp Mud Tires Model: 95 YJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: Mjeeps@aol.com

Details: Wha specman1 wrote on the 17th of Nov. is right on the money. I have had my 31x10.5 Pro comp MT's on since July and love them! They are quiet on the road, very quiet for a mud tire(must be all the siping), look really cool, and have gotten me out of some sticky, muddy situations. they are also a true 31 inch tire. Great product, not too expensive at all at $113 average a tire. I would highly recommend this tire to anyone.

Date: 27NOV2000 Company: Thor enterprises Product: Thor sound wedge Model: 2000 tj Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: hafido@hotmail.com

Details: I recently installed these sound wedges which go in between the roll cage and the back seat. They are awsome. Along with this, i installed 5 1/4 inch kicker seperates and dash tweeters and a kicker substation. along with an aura amp which fits perfectly under the seat. If you want pictures of my set up you can e-mail me and I will send them to you. My whole system was a little pricey ($1000), but it rocks.

Details: Two words, "Woa" and "woohoo". This carb is amazing, better fuel efficiency, hell of a lot more power (yes I can do a smoke-out on dry pavement now :o) and I recommended it over MPI upgrade system.

Date: 17NOV2000 Company: Teraflex Product: 3 inch system Model: 97' TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: Grimmjpr@Juno.com

Details: This lift kicks....the flex is excellent, and the ride on the road is great. The 3 or so hour ride to Moab is soft but still firm enough to not be all over the road. The 3 inch lift with the 3/4 inch spacers(i have a 9000 lb winch)lifted my Jeep a little over 5 inches. I run 33x10.50x15 BFG AT KO's on stock 5 hole Jeep rims....at full flex there's still a little room before the tire would hit. I would also like to add that the BFG AT KO's are really great, great all around tire, quiet on the road, wear well, excellent wet traction(rain or snow) and great off road. There may be better off road tires.....but if your looking for a great set of tires for your daily driver and you don't want to have 2 sets of tires, these will would be the best choice.

Date: 17NOV2000 Company: Pro Comp Product: Pro Comp Mud Tires Model: 35/12.50/15 Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: specman1@mindspring.com

Details: I had 33/15.50/15 TSL/SX Swampers. They were great off road but worthless everywhere else. I will never by another bias ply tire. The New Pro Comp Mud Tires are bigger, took less weight, make way less noice and the ride is near perfect. One tire has 1/4 oz the rest have less than 3 oz. I would recommend these tires to anyone.

Date: 16NOV2000 Company: off road general store Product: 1 3/4" spacer Model: TJ Opinion: Excellent! E-mail: SkyHighTJ@aol.com

Details: These spacers are it. Bottome line - if you want great looks from your spacers grab these, they are aluminum, but you leave the stock isolators and that softens the blows. Plus they Look great on top of my RE 4.5''! However they are only intended for front use, since they have such a long collar that extends about two inches.Pretty sweet looking spacers. Throw some polys out back...they are cheap. Watch out..control arm length quickly becomes an issue.
