What are /r/JeepWrangler's favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Pretty much anything and everything. It's tough to say, depends on the trail and type of wheeling - but I would have a good set of box wrenches (my 17, 18, 19, 21, 24mms get used the most on my JL), a good set of sockets, a breaker bar, torque wrench, big rubber mallet, large adjustable wrench especially if you're lifted and have jam nuts on your control arms, vice grips, channel locks, pry tools, zip ties, compressed air, grease, WD40, generic screwdrivers. I'm probably missing some stuff but that's generally what I carry.

This is my box wrench set I carry in the Jeep, it's cheap, ratcheting, the sizes are cut well, it doesn't skip essential sizes, and it's done well for me so far: https://www.amazon.com/Metric-Ratcheting-Vanadium-Combination-Storage/dp/B07FLTPNV7/ref=sr_1_11?dchild=1&keywords=ratcheting+box+wrench+metric&qid=1600194550&sr=8-11

Everything else for the Jeep tool bag I got at harbor freight, except for a good 1/2" ratchet that I got elsewhere. A nice electric impact gun is nice to have but not necessary. The guys around here use Makita - I did my whole lift with a buddy's 1/2" makita impact (the cheaper one) with the 5.0ah battery and it didn't die once.

Yes I love them! However my passenger side cover almost slips off now and again. But I just haven't thought to super glue it to keep it in place. I've had these over a year and they are perfect!

Are you talking about getting at the drain plug?
What I did was took an alan key and cut it to about 2 inches long with an angle grinder disc. Then you just put a wrench on it after inserting into the drain plug.

You could possibly do the same with a large bolt. just thread on a few nuts and lock them together to use as a wrenching device.

otherwise amazon has this made for specifically your problem.

I used these for a 400 mile drive to SoCal and they worked great.

Our new-to-us JL Rubicon did not have the factory middle brake light assembly that floats the light above the spare tire, instead the light just sat behind the tire on top of the bracket the tire attaches to. The light was visible between the spokes of the tire but it was not permanently affixed in place (there was some no-longer-sticky double sided tape on the bottom of the light).

So, we found and installed this cute Jeep themed assembly for right above the backup camera, in the middle of the spare. Many of you have probably seen this before but for those that haven’t, here’s a link to it:

Mopar Genuine Center High Mounted Stop Light (CHMSL) Relocation Kit https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07NQKHXVN/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_7NKDHKKECPNF0AR2ESRX?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Installation was breeze. No additional wiring was necessary, the cable for the light (at least on our Jeep) is pretty long. Just swap out a couple lugs and add a couple screws and you’re all set.

This one works well in a 4 door.

I'm sure there is an app for iPhone users.

I had a bunch of evap codes on my 2008 jk. Ended up replacing vapor canister, seal, and evap pump after replacing the gas cap. no more evap codes. I think P0456 was one of my codes.

This was not my first and not make my jeep more off-road capable........ but one of my favorite, because i benefit every time I am in my jeep. Simple to install over a weekend and made a huge difference.

I did some research and came across this guys videos. He’s been testing fluid film and other products over several years. Recently, he’s been using bp surface shield. I applied this to my jeep. So far so good. Good creep, and sticks for a long time.

https://youtu.be/NE1_EiZIVHs

I purchased a gallon of surface shield on Amazon and also purchased a spray kit. I used about half a gallon after generously spraying the under carriage and inside of the frame.

Just buy semi truck mudflaps and cut them to fit? Possibly add some stainless steel bracing at the anchor points.

I know a bunch of folks go the HD route but I run heavy Nitto Trail Grapler tires (35s) I replaced mine with OEM Spicer Ball Joints. I believe they are the best value. If you you get a JL at some point they are not. Then I would recommend the HD ones and the JLs have poor ball joints.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KNXSIYS I bought these and love them. Not flashy with all the colored leds and stuff. Just a regular LED with high beams and then fog lamps to compliment them. They work great.

Replace the lower hinge bolts with a pin. I just pop off the wire harness, then lft the door. No tools needed for a doors off day.

You can switch back to the bolt for winter if you want. If not, make sure to grease the pins up often, because you'll lose that protection of the lower bolt. The stock fenders sling road debris and water right at the hinge.

I’m considering ordering a pair of these for the driver and front passenger door nets on my Gladiator. These specifically are for the JL and JT, but I wouldn’t be surprised if there is a JK version out there.

I just did the Kicker speaker upgrade and it was only $180 for all 4, its a huge improvement over the stock speakers and only took about an hour to install. https://www.amazon.com/Mopar-Wrangler-Kicker-Speaker-Upgrade/dp/B004SUO5QS

I bought the 13" red option of this one for my Gladiator Rubicon which will work for you if you want red. If not, click through all the other options, which are all black.

Little cheaper on Amazon but still expensive

Remove the tops.

Inspect the rubber seals for any tears, cracks, holes and any thing such as a buildup of dirt or pieces of twigs, etc.

What year is your Jeep? If the rubbers look good, maybe they need some emulsion fluid to restore the suppleness . Something such as this product>>>>https://www.amazon.ca/303-30324-Rubber-Seal-Protectant/dp/B00T44D1R2 .

Either buy some online, your local auto-parts store or the Jeep parts department. ( all vehicle dealerships carry some form , call and check who has the best price.)

I just installed a kit made by Harken over the weekend - costs $200 on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/HARKEN-Self-Leveling-Anti-Drop-One-Person-Organization/dp/B07BKV1VTN

The kit comes with a block and tackle, all the rope you'll need, 4 pulleys, 4 mounting hooks for the pulleys, 2 straps, and 4 lag bolts for the "riser" board, and 1 welded eye screw to secure the block and tackle to.

The kit does not include:

- (3) 2x6 boards (2 get mounted to your garage rafters, the third board you'll just need a 7" section for a riser board). The instructions say to cut the boards down to spanning across 4 rafters, I found it easier to just secure the 7' boards I had across 6 rafters.

- (8) 5" lag bolts (4 bolts for each board secured to rafters)

With about a full day of research, you could probably buy all the components for less than $100. The installation took me the better part of a weekend, but it was worth it.

They're the inserts that go inside the hinge connected to the jeep. I guess they're actually called bushings. Link below for an example.

Hi, I also have a 2002 TJ. I have replaced all my lights with LEDs. Yes, a new flasher should fix your fast blinkers, but I unfortunately don’t remember where I bought mine. I thought it was Amazon, but I don’t have the order history. Sorry.

Another issue you will run into is the electrical design of the side marker lights is a 2 wire system, using a floating ground. That works fine with an incandescent, but not leds as a led allows current to only flow in one direction. I installed a conversion kit called the blinker genie 2, and it was worth it in my opinion. You’ll need to add a ground wire to each marker light for this kit.

I went OEM, more for my own piece of mind than anything else. I also used this funnel kit for topping off the coolant and getting rid of the air bubbles.

This guy did a great vid on the swap and coolant top off and air bubble bleed off.

I just got this folding step when I got my Wrangler and realized my lower pet step wasn't high enough. My dog is 97 pounds so there's no lifting going on lol

They are shallow so he has a little trouble, but I don't have the clearance in my garage for a ramp for the side door.

Been eyeing the petloader steps but they are pricey and steep if you don't have the side clearance. Just some things to consider.

I’ve got that one a well, and it works great with my Jeep with a 3 inch lift. My dog Dakota, who is 11 years old, has no problem using it! https://www.chewy.com/petsafe-happy-ride-foldable-dog-car/dp/53682

Happened on my 2014 JK... The part that is still in the rubber boot is somewhat of a button that can be removed... I removed it, cleaned it up and re-soldered it back on.. the temperature your dealing with on a soldering iron is not enough to break the glass as long and you solder it just long enough to make it stick then the portion with the rubber boot just snaps on the “button” to hold it in place. I haven’t has a problem since... And also, I believe Permatex makes a kit to “glue” the button back on. Check out your local auto parts store, they’re usually in the section where they have the rear view mirror glue kits.

Edit... found it on Amazon..

If they are the same model I’d get the cheaper ones. Hard to tell without a link. I bought mine off Amazon. All the holes matched up and it was easy as pie.

Brawlee LED rear glass light for me. Lights up your whole back cargo area so well when the glass is open. One of those things that once I got it I couldn't imagine not having it. Having trouble finding the link to the one I got. Mines a 18 JLU. This link is a JK but same thing.

Idk if this is ur issue but I had an issue in my 2015 unlimited where water would seep in through the front door after rain. I closed the door and sprayed it with water from the hose, and was able to locate where it was coming from(after ripping out the mats and carpet and such). The water came in through a particular plastic fastener. I put something like this along the inside of the car door and it fixed the problem instantly.

I read through that and it sounds simple. The welding is out of my skill set though.

I'm also looking at a "broken bolt extractor" on Amazon.

How safe would it be to commute with only one bolt (on that side) holding that together?

Thank you! It's technically a doggy hammock. Great for rides in the car. It keeps him safe and secure, even when I have all the doors and everything off. I can buckle him in, too.

Amazon. This is the bulb you want. This line of bulbs does well in testing.

Kudos for sticking with halogens--they're what the headlamp is designed around. There are no LED bulbs that will replace a H13/9008 bulb successfully.
