    What did you do to your JK today?

    Drove it to Lake Forest today to visit Rebel Off road. Bought the recon front coilover kit w/bump stops. 6 week wait for King to tune and set them up. I ordered "raw" brackets and will Cerakote them with a new "F" series coating that is quicker cure and better UV stability. Looking forward to...

    No start signal on 07 JKU

    Yet another update in the no start saga. I have no confidence that it has been fixed but it is starting now. So far, zero "no starts". I bought a Mak's TIPM on Saturday and had it in by Tuesday. Great service, even with little details not very clear. I bought the extra 2 year warranty and it...

    Newbie wanting to buy

    For being a NJ vehicle, it is not too bad rust wise. Maybe a good set of All Terrains would be better in that environment. Not sure about the price, seems good. Miles are a little high for a 2017 (20k plus a year) but it is probably good for 250k plus according to the good maintenance reports...

    Aftermarket lights and switches

    I bet you canfind a panel that sticks out like this one that will give you some room in that spot. I see mine as a wasted spot. Only a few work. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001GH1P3W?tag=wranglerorg-20

    Aftermarket lights and switches

    In the year that has passed, voswitch has gained some ground. I like mine. One wire through the firewall and that’s it. I know they show it mounted over the windshield, but it can be mounted anywhere...

    Transfer case leak

    Good to hear. Mine has 61k on it. Was never really wheeled until I bought it with 58k on it.

    Transfer case leak

    I had the same thought. My usual way is to pop in an atlas II before I’m stuck in a trail. This one I’ve been convinced it’s worth waiting.

    Transfer case leak

    So what is the low down on the jk t case? I was told they are really stout.

    Transfer case leak

    I guess I should get up to speed! My dana 300's and Atlas II did not take ATF!! This JK thing trips me out

    No start signal on 07 JKU

    My JKU is a hack job in 2009 it had a complete rebuild that included a hemi 5.7 and a new trans.

    No start signal on 07 JKU

    The trans in my JKU is a 545rfe (most likely🤷‍♂️) I think the sensor is outside. BUT, I did some testing and found/traced the problem to the tipm. I can jump pin 30 to 86 on k3 in the tipm and the starter cranks over the engine. The tipm did not send a signal out of 87 to 86. I purchased a tipm...

    No start signal on 07 JKU

    Pressure washing is risky. I have had bad luck in the past washing chevys. This would have been a very quick reaction. I have not seen any corrosion or electrolysis on any of the parts or connectors. The TIPM looks fine, nothing but dust. My guess was moisture from pressure washing the area...

    No start signal on 07 JKU

    Well, the issue is back. Frustrating. I have the TIPM out and have cleaned it good and used contact cleaner on the harness plug in side. I'll put it back in today. I will also look at the neutral safety switch (it has a trans out of a 2009 Dodge ram. The issue (at the moment) seems to arise...

    JKU 1.9L TDI swap: Is it possible?

    Ok, Rebuilding an engine is a lot less headache than swapping. The rebuild is a one and done, swaps keep on giving, especially non LS or hemi. I bought a 2007 JKU that was hemi swapped in 2009, a very early swap. 16 years later, I am still tracing gremlins. I get that later swaps are better and...
