I'm parking my '99 TJ Sport for the winter and would like some advice on
what to do beforehand. Where I live it gets to about -35C with about 3-4
feet of snow cumulative for about a 5-6mth block. Here's what I will be
doing already:

1. Taking the tires off and storing them in the shed or outside but under
poly, lying on their sides and stacked (is this recommended?) They are 32"
procomp mud's on chrome rims.

2. Setting the Jeep on 4 axle stands (any particular spots I should set them
on?). I'll be putting cinder blocks under as well for added security. What
is the recommended method for all of this?

3. Getting a full car cover and covering the whole thing.


I've also got neoprene seat covers. Should these be stored inside for the
winter or will they be OK? Any special precautions for my battery, winch,
connections, etc?

What about fluids, gas tank, etc?

Thanks!

For that kind of storage I'd suggest:

Clean oil: do an oil and filter change, run it 100 miles or so to get
things well warmed up and mixed with any of the old oil.

Check your anti freeze, replace as necessary. Your '99 may not have had
any cooling service, this would be a good time to flush and refill. I
don't have the table in front of me but IIRC you may need to go to 60%
ethelyne glycol instead of the regular 50% mix.

Make sure the tank is full of gas to minimize condensation. Using
something like Stabil is a good idea but not really necessary for the
reasonably short storage time.

Tires need to be off the ground and protected from UV (they should not
see sunlight!). If you are storing outside, by all means take them off.
Horizontal or vertical is fine, just don't store them with weight on the
wheels.

Jackstands can be on the axles (under the spring mounts) or on the frame
with the springs relaxed. You can go either way, I guess I prefer the
frame to let the springs relax and not sag.

You can get a maintenance charger for the battery and leave it on all
winter. Something like this:
http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=42292
We normally leave the batteries in the vehicle but for that temp it
wouldn't hurt to bring it in to a cool (10 C to 20 C would be good.)
storage area. Store it on a wood base, use the maintenance charger.

Plug the exhaust loosely with a rag, keeps the rodents out. Ditto for
the air intake to the engine and the heater/AC

Make sure the cover is one that is compatible with the paint. The cheap
ones are nylon, the rain/snow/melt will stick it to the paint quite
nicely. I much prefer tenting it with a blue tarp. Put a 2x4 on the
front and rear bumpers that supports another one about a foot over the
top of the cab, drape the tarp over the top, anchor it down on each side
with another couple of 2x4's.

When storing snowmobiles for summer, we use a good fogging oil in the
cylinders so they don't seize up. I think it might be a good idea to so this
in your Jeep, at the very least so the cylinder walls aren't too dry on
re-start after storage.

I'd suggest if you are going to use jack stands, there's no need to remove
the wheels. I'd just use the stands to keep the wheels off the ground, and
covered with small tarps or even big trash bags. One less thing to do in the
spring.

Re: the antifreeze, if you change it don't forget the block drain, on the
driver's side of the block, toward the rear half of the engine. You'll leave
almost a gallon of old coolant in the engine otherwise.

Good advice on plugging the intake and exhaust. I had a mouse build a nest
in the transmission case of a Kawasaki Mule once, not pretty. Expect to have
to clean out mouse nests from the nooks and crannies under the hood in the
spring. A judicial application of mothballs may help.
