Had mine done last year- cams, lifters, rockers, plugs, PCV... about $4k.

Get it into a shop now. That sounds like a ball joint almost gone or a u-joint.

I was offered $10k sight unseen by the local Chevy dealer, where my wife bought her Tahoe a couple years ago. Carvana doesn't give much of an option to include all of the mods or note anything that makes the vehicle more valuable or attractive to a buyer.

$8k...:oops:

Isn't the white plastic piece in the right side of the picture the actuator arm? I thought the older JKs, like your 2008 had a wire cable connection from the actuator to the door itself.

Thanks, I have some, but they're not the best with the sun angle, but I'll re-shoot them and include.

The whole idea of listing the vehicle and deciding whether or not you disclose a new engine, rebuild or major work is a part of the discussion as well. I have not listed any of the engine work done on mine, but I have disclosed it to the serious people who have contacted me. As with the OP, I...

I have my 2014 listed for $15k and, while the engine is original, the entire top end has been rebuilt- cams, rockers, lifters, heads resurfaced, new water pump, cooling fans. All the engine work done by a reputable shop and come with the same warranty as yours. Several mods and I'm selling it...

I can attest. My 2.5" lift was a perfect fit for my JKU and the stance was everything I wanted. That is, until I replaced the factory front bumper with an OR Fab steel bumper that weighs around 80lbs. Since then, she has a slight rake, nothing that bugs the sh** outta me, but yeah, it's a thing.

I replaced my overhead speakers a few years ago with a pair of Rockford Fosgate and couldn't be happier, once I got the factory head unit (RCE56) EQ & BAL/FADE set up the way I like it. I briefly considered a new head unit, but my reality is I don't drive her more than a couple hours at a time...

I concur with the driveshaft u-joint. Especially if your ride has a lift, but less than 2.5 or 3", which does not necessarily require a driveshaft change due to the geometry. Although the angle is not severe enough to require a longer driveshaft, the angle does add a little more strain to the...

A lot of tire shops are using adhesive weights on the inside of an aftermarket wheel. I used to check mine periodically and it was very easy to see where a weight used to be as they would fall off once the adhesive got wet and dirty. I specifically asked for the old-fashioned pinched on weights...

If you attempt this on your own with JScan, go to the Apple or Google app store, depending on your phone, and make sure your JScan app is the latest version, performing any updates that may be needed prior to starting the programming.

If it's bumps and jolts that cause the noise, getting it up on a rack would allow someone to recreate it. Moving wheels, axles, shocks, driveshafts, etc. to locate the source of the noise. If it was the pinion or rear end, it would be making noise whenever the drive shaft was rotating.
