Introducing our Center Frame Skid Plate Mount (RB2014L & RB2014R) for your YJ Wrangler. The center frame section of nearly every vehicle is the lowest point.  Additionally, frames of nearly every vehicle come with a series of holes used to realign it in the event of an accident.  This means debris and water inevitably gets trapped inside, resting inside the center frame.  Jeep’s YJ Wrangler is no different and given its age spells deep rooted rust complications. The center frame section on a YJ holds the vehicle’s skid plate, a heavy piece of solid steel, and combined with the rust mentioned earlier,...

Introducing our Rear Leaf Spring Mount Section (RB2005L & RB2005R) for your YJ Wrangler. The YJ Wrangler marks the end of an era in many ways, but perhaps the most notable and revolutionary is Jeep’s transition from leaf spring suspension to the modern coil spring.  This change was made primarily to increase the comfort and quality of driving, but it goes without saying that the technology behind the system was self-destructive.  The constant tug of war between the leaves and the spring mounts, in addition to salt and water spray, literally pulled the vehicle apart over its lifespan.

Introducing our Center Section with Skid Plate Mount (RB3008L & RB3008R) for your TJ Wrangler. One of the most important parts of any vehicle is the skid plate.  This vital piece of armor protects and retains your transmission and transfer case.

The YJ Wrangler holds a niche seat in the Jeep community, usually favored by the older community and some collectors.  It’s an attention grabber and contends with newer and heavily modified models due to its Jeep-like visage but with a more box-like spin, namely its headlights, hood, and taillights.  Moreover, the YJ has some of the most sought after variants that are just as, if not more, rare than its CJ-7  predecessor, such as the Renegade.  But just like us, Jeeps grow old and fall apart.  Especially if they lived in salty northern areas.  So we here at Rust Buster...

“Old soldiers never die, they just fade away.” – Douglas Macarthu rNot so fast General… Sometimes, they can be rebuilt. Introduced in 1996, the Jeep Wrangler TJ reintroduced the signature circular headlights that Jeep is known for. It also marked an improvement in ride and handling with coil- spring suspension, front and rear. If you own a Jeep Wrangler TJ, we know just how much it means to you. But we also know how awful it feels when an issue (large or small) threatens the mechanical life or aesthetic beauty of your favorite off-road soldier. One of the main issues that your...
