    *Any* of this stuff can happen to *any* of us, *any* time. Thank you for sharing!!

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Replaced the coolant reservoir. Easiest job ever? The down-pipe (rhymes with stipple, for the censor) was cracked and the band-aid repair was no longer adequate. ;)

    2003 KJ 3.7L Spark Plug experimentation

    This is a childish question, but did you disconnect the battery and apply a small load (turn key to on position, e.g.) to fully drain the system? Sometimes a power-cycle on the PCM & TCM helps the machine un-learn the old calibration values and gives a fresh start to the learning cycle. Sorry...

    Excellent work! How does it ride & drive now?

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Maybe not what you're looking for, but I usually take a little drive the junkyard for that sort of stuff.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Me, either, I guess. ;) My regular favorite independent neighborhood shop lost their tech, so I went with the closest big-box place. Unless they can make good on it for free after I put some miles on those new bushings, the hunt continues.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I had the LCA done under recall a while back. Before then, it was a bucking bull with every change in throttle! Replacing *all* the front stuff triggered this alignment. I figured it would be near perfect after all those new parts and 7 hours at the neighborhood Firestone. Not so much. I'll...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Got an alignment after replacing a pile of suspension & steering components. Still pulls slightly to the left. Firestone said there's an adjustment that has to be performed at a dealer. Whatever could it be? It's better now than it was before, and they gave a massive discount for as much...

    Heater core replace

    I swear I saw this horse move. It requires further beating: Which school of thought do you belong to? I'm gearing up for Option 2, but I'm on the wrong side of Experience to have an opinion.

    Going neutral while driving

    Thank you for the thorough write-up and the gruesome pics.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    ^^ What kind of spray setup are you using, and are you happy with it? I've been casually considering dabbling, but it's a big buy-in just to make a mess with cheap equipment. ;)

    Which pet barrier/divider did you get, and do you like it? Thinking about getting one as well...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Ooh! Good idea. Shop rate for that stuff, plus shop-price parts, has gotta near two grand! (?) Thanks for the support and kudos. ❤️ Up next, but not necessarily soon, might be the heater core.

    I'm pretty bad at this wrenching stuff, but I enjoy it and I'm stretching my abilities. It started with a persistent PS fluid leak and some "uncertain" steering. Upper & Lower Control Arms Upper & Lower Ball Joints Struts Sway Bar Links Sway Bar Bushings Tie Rod Ends Steering Rack PS Hoses...

    Word censorship?

    The 2021 Nicholas Cage "History of Swear Words" is pretty entertaining, if not a bit cringe-inducing from time to time. There's some highly quotable lines in there. :cool:

    Word censorship?

    For context, I plan to tie a ribbon on the t3rd of a Jeep that sits in my alley. It needs a heap of work to remain roadworthy -- or to at least restore roadworthiness.

    Word censorship?

    I suppose it's hard to solicit acceptable alternatives when the first pass is censored. "Bird" is the word, but it starts with a "T". (And hits the fan) t0rd? ****? Um, Happy Memorial Day.

    Word censorship?

    Pardon my juvenile effort to determine if the word **** will be censored. I'm considering a write-up of my pending adventures in the garage in an effort to give back just a little of what this forum has given me. Establishing the permissible lexicon seems like a good first step. :cool...
