 You Need a Jackstrap The...  You Need a Jackstrap The Jackstrap is the solution to the biggest problem High-Lift jack owners face: you can jack your Jeep up to the top of the jack, but the tire you need to get off the ground is still firmly planted on terra-firma. With the Jackstrap wrapped around your axle you can easily change a tire or re-seat a bead because now the suspension won't drop out.

Brute Force Intake For All TJs Now, even if you've got an '05 or '06 TJ or LJ, you can put a Brute Force intake on it. With the industry's leading dry element filter, large diameter free-flowing mandrel-bent tubing, horsepower gains, driveability improvement, and 50-state legality, there is no real reason to avoid running this kit in your Jeep.

Smaller Quad Gauge If you've got a Jeep dashboard with special needs-that is, if you can't fit the normal assortment of oil, fuel, volts, temp, and a speedometer-Auto Meter has the solution. With the new Quad System, in two 331/48-inch gauges, you can fit all of those gauges and leave space in your dash for other things.

In addition to the EXT tank that allows a 5-inch wheelbase stretch through moving the rear axle back, Gen-Right Off Road has been hard at work on new designs. For '97-'06 TJs and LJs they've come up with the COMP for 7 inches of stretch and 1 more inch of ground clearance; the SC, which is good for 2.5 inches of stretch and 2 more inches of ground clearance; and the Enduro, adding 5 more gallons, no stretch, and no additional ground clearance. The company also has the EXT and Enduro for '74-'86 CJs that can run the YJ-style for the tank pump, if needed.

JK Lift Kits From TeraFlex Once again, for the people on the JK wagon, TeraFlex has come up with not just one kit but a line of suspension systems.

Super Silica Packet If you store your Jeep for the winter and throw in as many silica packets as you can to keep it dry and mildew-free, give it up! Use something that actually works for a Jeep. The Zone Dry does all that, plus has a nice lemon scent, absorbs moisture enough to help keep rust down, and has an indicator for replacement.

AX-15 Behind a Squirrel If you've got a four-cylinder-powered Jeep, have had it lifted, and added some power modifications, odds are good that your AX-5 transmission is screaming for mercy. Well, Advance Adapters has come up with this kit that will save us all a lot of junkyard scrounging to swap an AX-15 six-cylinder transmission behind the four-cylinder.
