    Odd wobble at highway speed only when accelerating

    The rear lower control arms bushings are worn out allowing front to back axle movement under acceleration. There was actually a recall on the RCAs for some KJ;s and if it hasn't been done yet, you can get them replaced at a dealership under the recall. Otherwise, you'll need to buy a pair of...

    Need help with parasitic draw on my 2005 CRD

    Need help with parasitic draw on my 2005 CRD

    Ok Ill try that first. Mrs. AI Interwebz seems to confirm the existence of a latch switch, so I will try the screwdriver "closing" and see what happens. God how I often miss the days of simple analog switches as opposed to todays microswitches!!!!
