    Anyone near Blaine border crossing?

    Terraflex doesn't want to ship bump stops to the great white north. Anyone near the Blaine Washington/BC border crossing? If so would you mind ordering a set and I pick them up?

    Transmission system overheating

    Have a 2020 wrangler in for a ticking noise. Guy needs new cam shafts, wore through one of the intake cam lobes. Warranty expired too Everything that is causing it to fail may also be holding it all together. In a situation like that the grub built up in it could actually be helping it...

    Transmission system overheating

    Even if you did, it's cheaper long term to get an overhaul vs buying a new vehicle, which has no guarantee of being reliable even if you drive it right off the lot. Remove the pan, replace the filter and inspect for any chunks of metal or clips. If you see anything like that it's over haul...

    Transmission system overheating

    You can try replacing the fluid, but if it's already burnt, then you likely cooked the clutches. You can disconnect the trans cooler hoses and blow compressed air in and see if it is blocked. If it is blocked you can replace the rad assembly or get an after market external cooler. Other option...

    I love my auto dimming mirrors. Get the rear view mirror as well. I like that when some chump rolls up behind me using LED lights without projector head lamps

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    You can have someone jounce the front end. Reach under the vehicle and feel the clevis. If you feel clunking, put your hand on the shock body (watch fingers in the spring). You should be able to feel the clunking more clearly the closer you get to problem area if it is the shock. The same method...

    The top of that spring looks funny. Is it like that or is it broken?

    antifreeze/coolant question

    HOAT compatible, means it is compatible with the metal composition of the engine, it does not mean it's compatible with other coolants. Mixing different types of coolants is a recipe for sludge to build up in the cooling system. This will result in a plugged heater core, rad and any small spaces...

    So fun fact... you can put any coolant compatible with that engine in. What you cant do is mix coolants with HOAT and 5 year. Mixing will cause gelling and it will clog everything. The key is to completely flush all old coolant out. Prestone got sued a while back for claiming their stuff is...

    Do NOT trust JEEP (but maybe trust your dealer - maybe)

    We turn nothing away too. If something is a rusty pile and falling apart that's one thing, but I generally love working on out of warranty stuff. More money in those vehicle and the people are generally better to deal with. In fairness we have no rust in this area, so seeing something 10 years...

    You will also need a new plug or gasket for the plug that is behind the PS pump. You'll see it when you pull it. AC compressor and PS pump do not need to be taken out, you just swing them out of the way and don't pinch any lines. Just take your time and you'll be fine. I would also replace the...

    I would also suggest going to a wrecker and pick up the clutch fan (on the water pump) and the electric fan and shroud (if yours doesn't have heavy duty cooling). Greatly reduces the chances of ever over heating and needing a head gasket/heads machined. The clutch fan ensures that if your...

    If anything is leaking replace it. PCV isnt a bad idea. Pretty much any gasket you touch, replace. Timing cover surface should be clean when you put new one back on. It's not a hard job, just take your time and make sure there are no spare parts. Make sure your timing marks (top dead center)...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Pull the cam reluctor. It will either be there sticking or or flat. If its flat its gone. New head will have a cam hopefully. Just make sure the new head doesn't have sludge built up around the valve train. Ideally pull a head from a jeep thats been in an accident. In theory they are better...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Thats exactly what happened to the one I got for my Niece, same cylinder. You will likely find a dropped valve seat. Pull the head, inspect the piston. If all is good order a new head. Also make sure you check the cam shaft key way. There is a chance the reluctor has spun and sheared the key...
