Hella Vision Plus Conversion Headlights

Manufacturer’s Part Number 70477

Tire selection is critical to any Jeep build because knowing from past experience the wrong tire can destroy a good jeep. Trying to keep a Jeep trail and street worthy is always a difficult task.

I knew I wanted a 33×12.5×15 or LT285/75R16 (33×11.5)…

Why?

In my mind one of the most likest parts to dent on your Jeep is your gas tank. The tank skid on early Tjs is nothing more than a tin plate to hold the tank in place. (The tank was improved in later years but still isn’t great)…

One vulnerable spot on a Tj is the steering box. It is easy to damage and leave you stranded with a big dent in the pocket book. The box hangs just below the bumper and is prone to getting dented or cracked.
