    Another TPMS Question: 315 / 433 mhz?

    Sorry bought them at Rockauto not Amazon. They are Schrader model 29093. They are about $22 each. Buy too much stuff from both depending on price. Amazon does have them also.

    Another TPMS Question: 315 / 433 mhz?

    I just bought preprogrammed sensors from Amazon. They are Schrader ones. They didn't work at first but someone said try putting the pressure to about 40psi and then let air out to about 30psi. That worked after driving a few miles.

    Looking at High Mileage JKU

    I bought my 2013 jku Sahara with 161k on it. I did lose a rocker in the 3.6 and it wiped my one 7cam at 175k but I do all of my own work so it only cost me about $500 for the parts and a good day and half to do the cam and all of the rockers. It is not hard just time consuming. It runs great...
