Hey guys, congrats on the new Jeep! Been a long time follower. I’m a mechanic here and just want to chime in about the shocks recommendation from Firestone. You may not need new shocks if the car is riding fine with no noise or issues. Many shops try to “up sell” their customers for more profits so be careful. Bad shocks will generally have these symptoms: unusual noise, rough ride (bouncy), ride too soft (like a boat), nose dive when braking, uneven tire wear, or visibly be leaking fluid from the shocks (light seep of fluid is still generally ok). Hope that helps and always feel free to reach out to me if you ever have questions! Love the interior of the jeep btw! The seats look like it's still in great shape for the age!

I have owned a Jeep Tj like this KZreadr, no amount of great shocks will make the Jeep Tj smooth. Maybe if she does a lift kit and shocks. Looks like she has a Sahara edition. The squeel could just be you need a new belt. She's also got a 4.0L inline straight 6. The engines are bulletproof if she does regular maintenance. Also, she should definitely use a spout for the oil change, I always spill without.

Hi this Jeep Cherokee is a piece of junk

This vlog kept me smiling ear to ear just seeing how euphoric you were throughout the video from getting the car to detailing it to showing us a tour of its finished look!! Also, we love a strong, independent woman who learns how to take care of car matters! Love you guys so much ❤

Yeah, sames, there is so much joy from getting one of these, also amazing how something breaks, still runs, and it’s great to see someone not get frustrated and just enjoy the challenge. My Jeep’s brake lines rusted out, I built all new brake lines, very challenging, in the end, the nipples were so rusted out, had to take it to the shop to get it all installed.

@@hoflungdung111 This person has zero Idea what they are talking about. Please tell us what is so bad about a jeep? What most people complain about is what us wrangler owners love. Like the road noise the bouncing its all apart off the experience. Wranglers are just not a vehicle it is a way of life. Only true Jeepers understand..

Love seeing how you and Wah work together and support each other! The Jeep is so cute and it was fun and interesting to watch how you guys clean and fix it up. Can't wait to see more videos from you!

It looks like it was well maintained & now that it’s with you guys, she’s going to get some extra care! Really nice Jeep. I just purchased my first one back in February, ‘14 Sahara & I’m obsessed with it. Wish I had a partner to help do some of these things, looks fun to work on it together.

Loved this video! The pride that you both take in restoring old things is so lovely to watch.

Welcome to Jeep life...I own an 03 TJ myself. Despite all of its flaws and frustrations, I will never get rid of it. The best thing about an older Jeep is all of the aftermarket support. One can literally make it into whatever you want it to be. Have fun!!

awww, Wah's words of affirmation while he's teaching you how to do an oil change. how adorable! so happy to see you in love with your new Jeep!

KZread algorithm sent me here. You got yourself a pretty spotless Wrangler! The 4.0L in them will last you forever if properly taken care of. Along with the shocks, do replace the front steering stabilizer, basically the horizontal shock upfront by the front differential. Replacing this and checking your front ball joints should help eliminate that wobble you mentioned earlier. :)

I was about to tell her about the stabilizer also. My 2004 TJ wobbles at 50-55 mph, and then he's good to go.

I love when you document your passion projects, especially the car projects. Inspires me to do one. Can’t wait too see the further content about your Jeep :)

So cool seeing the joy on her face when she got her jeep. Also kudos for her being so DIY with it and learning all the stuff to take care of the jeep!!

Love it Weylie! So cool to see a youtuber with a real personality and interests. It’s refreshing g that you didn’t just buy a new car off the lot and you did all the work and maintenance yourself! Very relatable and relaxing to watch. keep being YOU! Much love ❤️

I absolutely loved this whole video. Seeing you so excited to get the Jeep, then all the love and care you both took to clean and take care of it really made me smile.

Love that you've found something to keep you and Wah entertained! Literally the best having your partner also be your best friend to do things with like this ❤️ My husband has been obsessed with yard work, and I've been restoring an oak table so we know the same feeling and emotions you've both felt because of the Jeep ❤

This was actually one of my favorite vidoes you have made! I love seeing the sweet & loving connection you all have. It also made me feel motivated to learn how to fix things on my own car.

What a beautiful car! So amazing to see you both work so hard to make it right for you. Hope it takes all of you on some fantastic journeys!

I loved this! I am a car fan and a do-it-yourself gal, so I really enjoyed watching your journey in retro-fitting your jeep to fit your needs.

Congratulations on the new Jeep!! 🎉🎉 I’ve been a fan for probably 10 years or so now and it’s been such a joy seeing all your adventures and challenges. Can’t wait to see the content you post about the Jeep!!!

This video just radiated joy! So lovely seeing you and Wah working on this project together. Can’t wait to see Navi cruising with you two ❤

Yaaaay!!! New adventures! I already know the travel/camp/hike vlogs are going to be amazing!

Love this. Getting a new (to you) Jeep is so exciting. I love that even a 23 year old TJ can provide this much joy for someone. Great vehicles and great memories!

I love that both of you guys are so handy and willing to put your hands to work. It really inspires me, as a woman, to learn how to do these sort of things too!

It's really nice to see you smiling from the heart Weylie!! And I love how Wah is supportive throughout! Couple goals! Love to see your trips wishing I could do this with my husband too. You deserve all the love you've been getting Weylie! Sending extra love from the Philippines and Congratulations on your New Baby - Jeep! 🎉❤😘

You are so inspiring! You may not think so, but man the content you and Wah put out blows me away every time! You are very hands-on and explorative! I love that and I'm working on it, putting myself out there and all. I hope your Jeep journey is smooth riding now that you've tuned it up a bit. I can't wait to see what journeys lie ahead!!🤩

Love watching you document your jeep build! To me it's great content and it's so fun to see someone love their jeep as much as I love mine. I have a 1998 TJ.

Wow!! So excited for you Weylie, thank you so much for sharing!! It's inspiring and encouraging to see and gives me (and hopefully others) a bit more confidence to consider older models, give them a deep clean, and new life and adventures.✨❤

I love this video! It’s inspiring to see y’all work on the Jeep. I’m no car girlie but I recently changed my license plate lights and air filters and I felt so accomplished even though it’s probably easy and not a big deal to others. Props to you both for spending hours on your new baby! Can’t wait to see your adventures with it!!

Not Wah being the most patient and thorough teacher ever while he’s teaching Weylie. Ugh never have I ever felt so single 🥲

watching you and wah work together literally made me so happy 🥺 i loved this video weylie

Congrats on your new JEEP!! As a fellow Jeep owner I’m so excited you’re now a Jeep girly. 🥰 Your 2000 Wrangler is so beautiful!! Can’t wait to see how you make it your own.

So cool how you bought the jeep and it's your new DIY project that will bring you on fun adventures :) lovely to see how passionate you and Wah are about cars and solo camping trips and how you can tackle car problems together with grace and laughter.

This was an absolute joy to watch! Thanks for sharing your passion project from start to end. It felt like we were on the journey with you.😊

As a dad my head exploded when you guys didn't immediately replace that belt, but I'm glad you guys got home safe. Wrenching on your Jeep is half the fun! Enjoy!

came back to your channel after a long time! I used to watch you for beauty content as another canto beauty enthusiast and now to see you getting into cars is so cool! I only recently became interested in them after a friend taught me the basics of manual driving, and I wanted to just say how I like that your content has always been fresh and true to your passions.

Weylie, stay true to your vision on what you want to share on your channel. We're growing and learning with you. I love seeing this content. Congrats on your dream car!

Congrats Weylie on your Jeep. Amazing job on deep cleaning the car. So satisfying to watch you and Wah cleaned the car and fixing the Jeep up 👍

This was very interesting! I love how you guys patiently went about cleaning, fixing and restoring. I love clean stuff; watching this was fun - and therapeutic! Good luck with your new Jeep!

Congrats!!!! Welcome to the Jeep family! The "shaky" at 65mph is most likely tire balance issue. Have fun and see you on the trails!

I was NOT prepared for that skeleton. Yeah you did warn us but I was still curious/intrigued. After seeing it, I have so many more questions... "how'd it get there?!", "why didn't it escape?!", "did no one ask why the passenger was croaking?!". Congrats on the Jeep! It looks brand, spankin' new after all the work you guys did. Super cool to see old cars get a new lease on life :) That little nod to Suite Life. #nostalgia AHMM and FHMMM

I loved seeing you so happy to get this car Weylie! It was even more fun to see you complete the project of cleaning it up and making sure everything was working properly and giving it a nice face lift. It inspires me to want to tackle fun things like that when I get older! :)))

I love love love tuning into your projects. It gives me a lot of confidence and inspiration 🥹😭

I loved this video because your emotions seemed so genuine. As a long time viewer, I understand that you will grow older with new interests and hopefully the other viewers can learn to understand that as well. I also find myself interested in new hobbies and taking on new projects as time goes on. Please continue to upload content YOU are interested in, as viewers can tell you are putting your best work online when you're genuinely enthusiastic about the project at hand. I would love to see you and Wah try to build ikea furniture with only one of you being able to see the instructions, possibly as a challenge. My BF says building ikea furniture is a true testament to how well we communicate as partners lol.

Love it. Love that you were able to take out the seats and console and clean it, looks like new. You didn't say how many miles it has on it. Love that you did your own oil change and whatever that was you put on the back. The more you know how to do yourself the more money you save. love it. thank you forsharing this with us.

What a beautiful job with the restoration! I felt like I was there with you guys every step of the journey. I could breath with confidence now lol. I was holding my breath when you said it was dusty 😂

I really enjoyed this video. It made me happy seeing Weylie so happy to get her dream car. Plus, you guys are honestly couple goals! So supportive of one another. I definitely would enjoy my boyfriend teaching me how to maintain my car, awesome bonding time - and you learn a good life skill! P.S. Weylie was so cute when she saw the skeleton and says "But it's legs are like this" - *raises leg*

Hi Weylie! I’m the girl that met you and Wah at the mall today! It was so nice to see you guys. I’ve been watching you since high school and I’m now a mom in my 30s. I wish I talked to you a bit more but honestly I was so shocked when I saw you. & I’m a very shy person. I felt like I saw a celebrity so I had to be courageous😅 Oh, and you’re so pretty! 💕

How many miles?

Did you buy this jeep from a certified seller? Always buy from a certified seller, because they hand you a list of things that are wrong with the car, past accidents, things that were replaced... it seems like you found a seller of this car and discover problems on the way which ends up being super costly

Before you start venturing, change all fluids (coolant, transfer case, transmission, power steering, brakes, and axles), plus make sure the brake pads are in good condition. Looking forward to your adventure videos in this TJ Sahara! Thanks for sharing this experience with us.

My first jeep was a 1998 moss green sahara with that same interior purchased in 2001 in Charleston, SC. That was a phenomenal reliable and safe jeep and served me well for many years and oh by the way is still on the road in summersville, WV. I've experienced all of the recent generations (currently have diesel gladiator) including JK/JL -you can't beat what the simple TJ 4.0 sahara models offer. Enjoy your new to you Jeep TJ!
