That "film" that goes on the shifter. It was falling apart so I when I did the Surefire mod, I ripped out the "film". I think that was the first part I broke.

first thing i broke was a leaf in my right leaf pack while booking it through a dirt trail. shortly after that i hit a rut that caused the weakened leaf spring to punch the bump stop through my slowly rotting frame =[ i really need a welding machine and welding lessons because the hole is not getting any better hahah

Went through some mud and didn't see the boulder it was hiding. Now my crossmember has a huge dent in it and so does the exhaust. Oops.

This is wimpy... but the truth.
Electric aerial! I was so pleased that it was working on the first Jeep that I decided to wipe it down with oil to keep it sweet. I pulled up too hard on it and snapped the rod/plastic thing inside it. It never moved again.

First part on "a" jeep I had, Snapped my rear axle shaft (D35) on my 99 Wrangler, when attempting to go up a slate incline on December 23. I was only runnin' 31's

On my XJ, stupid transfer case oil pump putt in' in my SYE. Don't ask, don't wanna talk about it.

Bought the 95, drove home great! Took it for a test ride on a two track and started dying when it got warm, chased it down to CPS thanks to the threads of everyone here! That was my first failed part.
