Introducing our Center Crossmember with Gas Tank Support (RB2007) for your YJ Wrangler. There’s a good chance you’re reading this because you’re aware that the YJ Wrangler’s gas tank and tank skid plate retain moisture very well.  And that your vehicle’s center crossmember made the ultimate sacrifice, putting your floor boards and safety at risk. Well you’re in luck because our latest Center Crossmember is cut to factory measurements and includes new secure points for your gas tank.  What’s better is that since this point is prone to moisture and rust development, replacing the sections provides the opportunity to take preemptive and...

Introducing our Front Shackle Mount Section (RB2004L & RB2004R) for your YJ Wrangler. The YJ Wrangler marks the end of an era in many ways, but perhaps the most notable and revolutionary is Jeep’s transition from leaf spring suspension to the modern coil spring.  This change was made primarily to increase the comfort and quality of driving, but it goes without saying that the technology behind the system was self-destructive.  The constant tug of war between the leaves and the shackle mounts, in addition to salt and water spray, literally pulled the vehicle apart over its lifespan. Our Front Shackle Mount Section...

Introducing our Rear Upper Shock Mount (RB2009) for your YJ Wrangler. As your YJ gets older, it’s leaf spring suspension constantly impacts onto the rear frame rails.  Especially if you’re a heavy trail rider.  Combined with debris, salt, and water spray, and the constant abuse of friction, your shocks and shock mounts take a major beating and deteriorate more quickly than other sections.  This is especially a problem because the constant push and pull of the shock is quick to tear a hole through your frame rail. With our new Rear Upper Shock Mount, you’ll be able to add some much needed...

Welcome back! Rusty here So, I’ll be real with you.  The pandemic and stay-at-home orders really slowed down my progress on my grandfather’s CJ.  And when I say “slowed”, I mean halted.  It’s both my fault, and… well pretty much just my fault.   If you remember, I was fixin’ to fix the front of the frame, but I was having a hard time figuring out how to gain access to it.  Now I don’t mean what’s Step 1 and what’s Step 2.  No, I mean how do I blast through these seized bolts and panels to both not break anything,...

Welcome back to Rusty’s Corner! Rusty here, and I’m continuing work on my CJ.  I’m going to dip into the front of the frame this time as I wait for the passenger Spring mount to get replaced.  It’s a simple replacement again, but getting there has my mind warped in confusion. But before I get into that, I got into a heated discussion with a buddy of mine over his TJ Wrangler. See he needs some repairs done too, but the problem he’s running into, and what we were arguing about, is that his rig is lifted with some 33”...
