Hi Jeepers, I am researching wheels for my 2020 Willys JLU. I keep wavering between different options. Has anyone had experience with Fuel Trophy wheels? I read reviews from 2015-2019 where people complained about rusting bolts on the simulated beadlocks. I have not seen any complaints...

Hello, I have a rusty 94 yj project that has been sitting in my garage for many years now. It has a 3" body lift on it from the previous owner. I live in New England, and this thing was my daily driver fur years and saw a ton of salt and snow. I'm boxing the rear of the frame now. But I'd...

I’m a novice asking for some advice. Looking at a 2012 Jeep wrangler Ynlimited Sahara. The dealer sent me a all around video, we have not yet seen this in person. Thoughts on this rust and if it is concerning or acceptable? We would replace the rusted aftermarket bumper. The salesman tells me...

Hi all - I'm looking at purchasing my first Jeep Wrangler and found a fairly good looking 2012 Unlimited on facebook marketplace with 50k miles. The body seems to be in great shape for a 10 year old car with limited to no rust, however, the underbody of the car seems to less ideal condition...

I've got some pretty concerning looking surface rust on driver and passenger side of my windshield frame here. I've watched a tutorial on how to remove the windshield and replace the whole factory gasket and caulk seal and it looks like one helluva pain in the a-hole Do you guys think I should...

Hello everyone I'm 18 and never have I ever done any kind of significant work on a car before, but my Ma has tasked me with restoring her 92 wrangler. It is full of rust in every nook and cranny (see pictures below). The tires are only 28", the axels are stock, and the engine is a 2.5L...

Hello. I recently inherited a 2000 Jeep TJ. I will preface this with saying, I am not the most car savvy person. I am told that the frame was professionally repaired about 3-4 years ago. However, in looking underneath the car, there is a lot of rust where it appears the body connects to the...

I have a 2011 2 door sport (3.8 L, V6). I noticed my front diff is leaking a tiny bit and both front and rear are rusted pretty bad. It’s my daily driver for now and I’ve had no issues. I want to start repairs and upgrades before I start hitting the trails. Obviously I want to lift it but I...

I have a question about a tiny dent with a rust spot on the back of my JKU right next to the tailgate handle. Ive had the Jeep 9 months and I don’t know how it got there. I attached some pictures too (I used my pinky for scale in one photo.) A friend of mine got me this Billet Silver Mopar paint...

I need help! I’m looking to purchase a used 2018 Jeep Wrangler Sport with 90k km and I’m not sure if there’s too much rust or if this is worth the purchase. I live in GTA and this vehicle is listed for $30k

What's your preference on a product to stop existing rust and to prevent new rust both on and in the frame? I'm doing a rebuild on an 87 YJ. Got a crap load of rust. I'm cutting off rusty sections of frame and welding on new steel, also replacing floor pans. Just looking for your input on the...

What's your preferred DIY rust inhibitor to combat current rust and also to prevent future rust? Spray, roll on?

Hello, What are recommendations on fixing this floorpan issue? Have you had this issue? Is it worth spending time/money to try and clear all the rust out? (Floorpan, Side panel near Jeep logo, Plus any additional rust around the floorpan area) Or should I just do a patch job? (Patch the hole...

Is it a viable option to cut out or cut off the second panel underneath the front fenders that catches dirt and water? I believe the panel is in place to stop the flat fender from "oil canning" (popping up and down like a sealer jar lid). Will the fender be too weak without this panel? Should...

I have had a few TJ’s/YJ’s over the years, and usually daily drive an F-150. I am looking to sell my truck and daily drive a JK or JKU. Unfortunately I live in the heart of the rust belt, so I am trying to find a southern Jeep. I found a 2011 JKU auto at my local Carmax for $19.5k, but it has...

I have a 2008 2 door JK with the 3.8 engine. The engine itself is really rusty above the upper oil pan on the driver side kinda where the dip stick goes in. It is crusty and I can pull decent size chunks of rust off. I searched everywhere on the internet and cannot find anyone else having this...

I live right by the ocean and everything on my build is rusting incredibly fast. I'm going to make a pass with some grease but I was wondering if anyone could recommend a cover for a lifted and modified JKU. I'm having trouble finding anything that will cover it top to bottom. Most of the time...

So I am in the market for a TJ, been reading a lot and trying to learn what to look for in the vehicle (coming from a old tacoma so first Jeep). Just passed on a personal seller whos 05 had obvious oil leak he was not disclosing . So I found 06 Rubicon I plan to go and look at tomorrow. One of...

Hello Everyone, I was looking at a 2003 Wrangler X with 60K miles (4.0L, manual, soft top, no lift) that overall looks pretty good and drives well. From what I've read, I understand that rust is the main thing to be concerned about so I took some pictures underneath the Jeep. I don't have...

Thinking of buying 2002 TJ with 84000 miles Its got some rust like you would expect, but over all the frame looks really solid. Some of the other pieces have some rust, a few looks bad, but I don't have enough of an understanding of what I am looking at. If it is less than a thousand to fix, or...
