Progress on the jeepfan.com 2004 TJ Unlimited – Front and rear axles are out, along with the entire suspension. Air lockers, new gears, and a Teraflex lift coming up. Check out the TeraFlex arm to the stock one. Rusted, seized bolts slowed progress – thank you PB Blaster and carbide sawzall blades.
One of the earliest mods on our TJ Unlimited project was new tires and wheels. All TJs came with 15 inch wheels unless the Jeep is a Rubicon where it was outfitted with 16 inch. The 16 inch wheel adds some improvement in appearance to the TJ and creates more tires options since the 15 …
