Fixing-Up Our Neglected 2007 Jeep Wrangler - Four Wheeler Network
When I inherited this Jeep, I might have been new to JKs but not to Jeeps, and I’ve been through a few incidences of “Jeep hood. ” You know, when the hood on the Jeep flies up and smacks against the windshield frame. Well, the hood flutter in this ’07 was so bad I was almost afraid to drive it. Right around the time I got the Jeep, ORO came out with this Hop Stopper. Not only does it stop all hood flutter, it also mounts to a very strong portion of the front of the JK. And if your thieves aren’t too bright, it also works very well as an anti-theft device. Jp staffers had control of this Jeep before I did, and everything I asked about had them pointing at each other as to which person was the culprit. Cappa blamed Hazel for the blown-up transmission and severe lack of oil in the Jeep, not to mention the Goldfish crackers, other snack food, and handprints found in the backseat from Hazel’s kids. Hazel readily admitted pouring nasty old gear oil all over the cargo area of the Jeep and swiped the factory trailer hitch while I watched. He also allowed the Jeep to sit under that hot Arizona sun for who knows how long, just roasting and sun-bleaching all kinds of stuff. Here’s a rundown of all the little problems that led up to this Jeep just being a pain in the butt to use as a daily driver. Source: www.fourwheeler.com
