    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I'm still running into the issue where with the new style led bulbs I bought, one side turns orange the other stays amber. So I'm going to just put the old plasma style LED's back in which stay amber. Until I can figure out why the passenger side is doing that to the chip set LED's.

    Manual washed it, then ran it through the automatic wash. Wiped down the interior then used Meguiar's Dash and Trim restore on the Dash Board and center console area.

    Clanking or something hitting tin sound from rear of vehicle

    I'm quite sure they use road salt in Colorado usually about three months longer than what most other states do out of the year.

    Parking Brake Assembly

    He's talking the most annoying thing we deal with on the rear disc Libby's which I'm in the middle of figuring out how I want to handle since all my hardware is gone and what was left that didn't get removed was destroyed when the plate was broke loose again. The whole assembly is attached to...

    3.7 cranks and tries to fire, but wont start, no obd Codes

    I had a friend and former co-worker told me about why starting fluid got banned at our job. Since someone -cough- manager -cough- decided to use a heavy amount of ether on a Diesel Engine, resulting in a flame coming out of the air intake and promptly starting a fire.

    I found this on kj facebook group.

    People just do not get basic concepts of physics. You throw more weight down there, you have to re-gear it match what you're doing. I wonder how spectacular the boom will be when his rear end goes.

    Aftermarket cruise control problem

    Of course the issue might stem from the fact the kit is aftermarket. Opposed to an actual OEM kit. I would ditch the Rostra Controls and put in the OEM steering controls.

    Aftermarket cruise control problem

    You may have to mount resistors on the LED brake lamps. Though funny, I have LED bulbs and no issues with the Cruise on mine though being an 07 things could be different.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    One thing I hated about Chrysler U-Joints. When I sold U-Joint Jobs I would have the Parts Stores bring down the U-Joints for that year and model, then see which ones matched.

    Need help with buying a jeep

    I'll admit I personally detest AWD systems and 4WD to the most degree as well as FWD. There are extremely FEW of any of those drive trains I would own and that's because I prefer hands down RWD. I like the feel of a dead steering wheel in my hands, it doesn't work my arms up. When I get behind...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Fixed the passenger side weather stripping, it was way too far forward. Must have been moved during the windshield replacement, driver side was fine.

    05 KJ - Odometer and Trip meter not working, but the speedo works fine.

    Check to make sure the connection for the front right hand side in your case driver side to make sure its where it's supposed to be under the hood. There is a bolt that the loop connector goes down on.. They sometimes dislodge and slide near the engine block getting too hot. I found that out on...

    Test number one, have somebody turn the key to on and put your ear by the fuel tank door. Best way to do it.

    Trying to find the junction block

    I'm going to say it again, because that's very similar to what I did with my Focus, and I nearly ruined the Junction block from the heat which actually MELTED plastic because the draw is very strong.

    Its a Magazine in Sweden and of course they have some rather crazy safety standard tests themselves but one thing they do is routinely test actual AWD systems. Its an ice take off simulation of putting the cars on rollers like Dyno and then accelerating the rollers are free of course to test if...

    Need help with buying a jeep

    It took me 3 tanks with my G8 to learn the hard way with Drive By Wire its smarter to ease into the throttle than to punch it. Doing that with at the time all city driving I was able to squeeze that GM V6 to near 19 to the gallon in the city. Not bad for 4,000lb car that was RWD. Its a habit...
