So I bought new tires for my 2000 WJ and my mechanic pointed out everything that my jeep needed to pass Pa State Inspection. I didn't just replace the parts, I UP-GRADED. Iron Rock Off road Premium 4" lift front and back, all aluminum radiator, New hoses, every single brake line, trans lines, Gas lines, Filters, Gas Tank Skid Plate by AOR, Doug Thorley headers, spring isolators, engine mounts, head lights, hood and rear hatch struts, oil pan and more. All just so I wouldn't have to waste new tires. So I totally understand. LOVED JEEPS NEVER DIE.
This was thoroughly enjoyable! I stopped watching for instructions to do this myself, as I have concluded I'm not doing all that work on a 20+ yr old car DIY. I did continue to watch from then on just purely for entertainment purposes. Much love for your future endeavors!
It doesn't happen often but I love getting new stuff for my Jeep! I mostly love it when as soon as a new part touches my Jeep, no matter how much it cost, it loses all its value instantly! I hope your Jeep drives smooth and straight and if not just turn the stereo up louder👌
having done ball joints, track bars, control arms, and tie rods in both my XJ and my ZJ, plus front and rear shocks and springs in the XJ all over the last year, I do NOT envy a guy trying to go at this without an impact, ball joint press, and puller set. I can't imagine doing this job without them!
Similarly, i just gave the XJ new brakes, tie rod ends, drag link, control arms, sway bar bushings, and a front end alignment in preparation for brand new BFGs. Incredible transformation in the steering and ride quality. I hope the WJ reacted the same after all these parts went on.
Yea? I would like to see that clean thing with some fresh rubber on it! We gotta come down and see your new place sometime as well. The WJ is like a new Jeep. Should have done this years ago..
Just had the death wobble start the other day. Had my wife turn the wheel while I was under there and found the track bar bushings worn out. Replaced that, no more wobble when hitting potholes.
13:30 Oh yes, good ol’ Eric. I remember him fondly. We served in Nam together. Eric could clear a foxhole like nobody else I’ve seen. What a true American hero, that Eric.
I just did most of what you did. Alot of my parts were toast. I was getting a lot of death wobble. After replacing my ball joints it cured about 90% of the wobble at around 53-57mph. I still have a slight wobble, same speed. Last task are driver side upper-lower ball joints and track bar. I didn't realize how bad these parts were until I did a 3 inch budget boost. After putting the budget boost in it's stressed out a lot of the parts.
“You know where that’s going ? That’s going no where . “ “More betterer” got me 😂 Just bought a WJ and this is exactly what I need to do Thanks for the vids man !
I hear ya, wanted to get both front & rear done before winter, LOL THAT DID'NT HAPPEN. Put about a $1300 hundred into it including tires on my stock ZJ. Still have parts sitting here waiting to be put on but it probably won't happen till spring ? Also spent about a grand in tools to make my Jeep fixing easier.
I haven't bought brand new tires in 20 years until this year when I got my 98 ZJ. 31' BF Goodrich AT K02's $702 mounted, balanced out the door. Keep up these great videos for sure and more Barney the ZJ vids please! Have great Christmas y'all!!
Doug taking his throne on the parts pile 🤣 Hail Douglas, king of the Jeep!!! Gotta send back your new parts for some rustier stuff 😆😆. I popped new isolators on black beauty
Nice work. I've had the tie rod ends replaced on my WJ, new shocks, pads and calipers ( always keep an eye out for seizing calipers ), muffler, upper and lower ball joints on the front end, both hub assemblies on the front, water pump, serpentine belt, radiator, and a partridge in a pear tree all in the last year. Gotta love the WJ's! Lol. BUT...... I still need to replace those darn spring isolators and control arms as well before moving to the rear of the Jeep for more work. I have a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ Laredo with the 4.0 inline Six. 138,000 miles. She should run for many, many more years to come.
For anyone wondering about tires, I bought a set of 32” Milestar Patagonia M/T’s for my 04 WJ about a month ago and absolutely love them. Great road manners, awesome off road and they were only $650 brand new. Highly recommend them.
Good thing to do while you got it all apart anyhow, cause you know how things go, a few days or weeks after tearing apart the whole front end and rebuilding it, that CV axle and/or hub is going to go oh hell no you ignored me I'm gonna break now LOL.
Dude you are a WJ god 🙌 I just spent the last 3 nights thinking of a plan to replace worn out parts but was clueless till now. Thank you sir again, now I have a game plan!!! Que bien que te gusten las empanadas hermano!!!
Dude I love this your approach 😂. Love this channel. I've got 1999 wj 4.7 with 234 k miles. Who says these engines are no good.Of coarse it needs everything your doing.
Really like this series my guy. I'm from NJ and work on my 4.0L '04 WJ constantly. I've done my steering stabilizer, shocks, and sway bar end links so far. Next up is front upper & lower control arms and my track bar. Just wish it wasnt my daily driver or I'd do it all at once like you! Lol
Damn that WJ should ride like a new one now.That is one cute little sister you got there Douglas.I am amazed that you two are even related...lol....Just kidding buddy..
had you just made this vid 6 months ago id would been freaking awesome to know how to fix this and that, but its always good to watch you guys on yt !!
Oh shit! Finally a wj guy thats thorough, quick, and to the point….and funny to listen to. Quick wits always help. Do you have a place to ask you a question about mine (2000 WJ Laredo) thats not here on you tube? Do you message anywhere? It’s an engine noise, oil leak question. And a quick one about lifts and drive trains and heavy bumpers. Please. I would appreciate it.
You really lucked out on the axle side bolt for that track bar. Those bastards rust out in the bolt snaps. Dana thought it was a good idea to weld a nut in an Inaccessible area so when you go to take the bolt out, it snaps. Sweet.
I got 3/4 of my sway bar end links done last week on my 04 WJ in about an hour and the frame side bolt on the last one (rear passenger) snapped half way thru taking it out. Took my another 2 hours to drill it out. I didn't even take the welded nut off I just bought a longer bolt and passed it thru the drill hole lol
Right now I'm in "replace everything" hell. I just bought a 2010 jku with 214k miles. Just rebuilt the trans, and I thought "well while the transmission is off... May aswell fix up this leaky 3.8" And I've replaced literally every seal on the engine besides the head gasket. Cam plugs, front crank seal, rear main, both pan gaskets, valve covers, intake etc. Then water pump. Then I did fuel pressure regulator while the intake was off, then I said, "I should probably service the diffs while I'm at it" and I almost regret pulling the diff covers off. The rear d44 spider gears and pinion are shot and the clutches are shot so that's another 500 down the drain for a new carrier, bearings and axle seals. This turned from 600 for a rebuild kit on the trans to well over a thousand dollars in bullshit. At this point I think I might just roll it down a hill into a tree and call it a day.
Why I hate working on my vehicles... But i don't Trust anyone else to do it the right way... All shop employees always want the fast easy way... One thing ALWAYS leads to more... I see you like the German tightening spec also, "Good En tight"...
Old Man Emu makes a 1.5" HD suspension kit for the WJ that I want SO bad. new springs and stiffer sway bars. Unfortunately i cannot justify the $1200 price tag. haha
Sacrifice a large socket grind a slot in the side then only unhook one side slide modified socket over the tie rod end makes it way easier especially if ya have an impact
If you haven’t looked at your service intervals on your patriot spark plugs every 30,000 and it freakin’ needs them!!!! No joke. Use basic plugs like it says it will burn the others up even faster. Air filters get nasty fast also even just street driving. The last thing I’ll tell you is watch your rear diff fluid level and that they don’t spit the seal out. Pinion housing to housing seal. Other wise if you run it off road watch the shaft seals.
I bought the 2004 WJ Columbia edition I have loved every minute great buy runs great its the 4.0 4x4 I bought it for camping a bit of off roading I live in AZ i dont want to go rock crawling but i want to do a bit of offroading what do you suggest i do? Should I do a lift or leave it stock, what parts should i replace just to get it a little more offroad capable beef it up a bit. Dont want to spend a second mortgage on it but I do have a couple grand to throw down. Thanks for the help and keep up the great videos.
That is basically my dream WJ! Glad to hear you are enjoying it. I might advise you leave it stock unless you really need the lift for your application
Yeah I bought a 96 Ford Bronco with a 5.8 manual 4×4 shifter on the floor with locking warn front hubs did I mention it's rust free no rear seats missing two windows in the rear and the radio doesn't work someone put a Flowmaster exhaust on it got it for 1,400 will a fresh rebuild it's ugly but runs really well
@@stonerzz1 Wish I could say that for the east coast where I am. At least I'm not in NY and up where vehicles rust just looking at them. I don't think I've ever seen a 90's bronco without half the body panels having holes the size of baseballs.
I get you man I'm from Chicago Illinois I moved out here about three years ago it's crazy vehicles that don't even exist out there are driving around 80s and 90s Styles vehicles that are just completely destroyed because the rocker panels went through the trunk Pontiacs lol crazy out here things like K5 Blazers Cherokee wagoneers Suburbans the list goes on of all these SUVs that people honestly start to avoid because of the rust and there's nothing long dead vehicles that still exist here pretty cool
@@DEInTheGarage so far I have tie rod ends, and the two tie rod adjusting sleeves and the control arms. What other parts would you recommend to get ? Also I'm trying to decide on a 2-4 inch lift if you have any advice on which one to choose
When I took the isolators off the front bottom the whole tower came off with it. Dirty northern vehicles and their rust. I got new ones but they need to be welded on.
Shout out to ur speed improvements!!good job,hey would like to put same 2inch reciever bar on my 2002 wj as yours in front what hitch did you use.great place for adding a winch just when needed.please send info.my steel bumper is too heavy needs to come off and plastic going back on but want that setup for winch just in case.really like ur stuff.snookie pa.2019
I ha e wayched a ton of your videos bc i own a 2003 JGC WJ. I like your commentary plus you are very informative. But i do have a question. What do you recommend for a 2" to 3" lift?

I usually do CV axles and hubs as a general front end refresh
Good thing to do while you got it all apart anyhow, cause you know how things go, a few days or weeks after tearing apart the whole front end and rebuilding it, that CV axle and/or hub is going to go oh hell no you ignored me I'm gonna break now LOL.
Yep. I should have added that. I did mine about 3 months ago, but worth mentioning for everyone else
I replaced the suspension on my WJ a few years ago by myself. The control arms were tough, but its lookin good now!
Loving the videos. I’ve literally watched almost every single one.
Haha.. dang! Well thanks for the views!
Dude you are a WJ god 🙌 I just spent the last 3 nights thinking of a plan to replace worn out parts but was clueless till now. Thank you sir again, now I have a game plan!!! Que bien que te gusten las empanadas hermano!!!
Love that your beautiful sister stopped in to help turn some wrenches ! I'm jelly I wouldn't mind her stopping by my garage if she likes Colorado ?
i think i learned after watching neough of these videos is to buy the center bar of the tie rods in addition to the end replacements
I am a first timer .... loved your show and I learned something . Gave a thumbs up and subscribed
My new favorite channel. You got me through my first tie rod end/s replacement!! Thanks. Track bar next. Swaybar links after that. Rock on!

You did put that nail in place of the carter pin. I just watched the video the other day.
Wait, really?? When? I don't remember ever having the tie rod ends off on this jeep
Nice work.
2 months ago . Replaced the entire front end on my buddies 98 Cherokee for right at 300$
His had death wobble BADDD. Not any more
Nailed it!
hmm now time to get the motivation to do that stuff to my Jeep, I hate wintertime when you got to work on your Jeep.
It makes for tough sledding if you dont have someplace warm and dry
great video. btw i see who got the looks in the family.
Damn that WJ should ride like a new one now.That is one cute little sister you got there Douglas.I am amazed that you two are even related...lol....Just kidding buddy..

Right??
Thanks for showing how to push the bump stop out of the way to get the track bar bolt out.
The D&E Team...awesome!!! Keep on jeep'n! Great video and camera work. Just like being there to help, watch, kibitz etc.

You got a good video of how to remove the upper control arm bushing that’s pressed in the front axle of a XJ
Not yet, but we will make one at some point
Couldn't hear my lifter tick! LOL! OMG your attitude is awesome! I'm dying!
Gotta have a good sense of humor if you are going to get into 20 year old Jeeps!
nice jeep, awesome watching you work, and fix things yourself with some help from friends. any updates on the avalanche.
The Avy has been sitting. I am collecting parts to fix the fuel system. It might be a few weeks before I get back to it, to be honest
Nice work that loomed pretty easy unfortunately it won't be that easy on my GMC.

Hey, would you happen to have the list of the parts you used for this project? I plan on doing the same thing to my wj this summer.
Any suggestions for a Tuppy Cylinder head to replace the stock head on my 2001 WJ?
Is it better to buy a refurbished 2004 engine or rebuild my 2001 ?
Do I need an alignment after coil spring isolators are replaced?
You shouldn't, no.
You need to hit up Hanes for a sponsorship. Maybe a little cash back for that product placement... might help pay for the new parts
LOL...
My WJ has a hard time turning to the right sometimes. Lefts are fine.. Any ideas?
