    No Heat 2007 JK

    Most of us raise the front of the Jeep up about 6-8" and remove the radiator cap and start the Jeep up and just let it idle. Watch for the coolant to drop and add as needed, you probably have a air pocket in it.

    3 thermostats in 6 months

    Do both of you have a automatic transmission, there's a issue with the automatic transmissions torque converter staying locked in and causing the engine to overheat.

    4wd light stays on all the time

    There's a switch on the T-case for the light I believe it could be loose or bad. I notice it looks like you have oversize tires on it did you recailibrate the speedometer for them? That will cause shifting issues with the trans and also a speeding ticket because your speedometer isn't reading...

    3.8 coolant leak

    Check the weep hole for your water pump, that would be the most common area to leak.

    2011 JK error code

    It wouldn't hurt anything, even clean the ground from battery cable to the engine block.

    What about your battery cable clamps, still using the Factory ones?

    2011 JK error code

    I haven't heard very good about Bosch, I and others have used NTK. Also if you still have the junk factory battery clamps replace them with some good heavy duty ones. These Jeeps are electrical nightmares and the electronics have to have a good ground. https://www.ngk.com/ntk-oxygen-sensors-ngk

    What brand of O2's did you buy? A bad ground can cause all kinds of electrical problems.

    Brake Work Gone Bad

    Sounds like a problem with the rubber lines collapsing on the inside and not letting the brakes release.

    Scared to drive ol' Red: another death wobble story

    The easiest way to check to see if your Jeeps axles aren't centered put a board against the tire on 1 side and look at how far the tire sticks out past the fender and then do it on the other side and look. Both side have to be the same distance, then do it on the other 2 and see if the distances...

    Scared to drive ol' Red: another death wobble story

    Like he said^^^^ you need adjustable track bars so that the front and rear axles are centered under the Jeep.

    Scared to drive ol' Red: another death wobble story

    You shouldn't have over a 1/2" of movement in the steering wheel before the tire starts moving.

    Scared to drive ol' Red: another death wobble story

    You don't need a lift to check for steering gearbox play. Just unlock the steering wheel and not running and turn your steering wheel back and forth and watch the left front tire to move. The tire should move back and forth with every movement of the steering wheel. If the steering wheel moves...

    Scared to drive ol' Red: another death wobble story

    Have you checked for play in the steering gearbox, have you done the chalk test on your tires so that your not overfilling them?
