got the coolant today - the HOAT Zerex G-05 stuff. Will drain, flush and refill - but need to go get some distilled water too. will have to start tackling the spark plugs as well.

diameter? about 7"? might be a headlight surround? I can't think of anything soft top related and I just installed one...but I am only guessing and could be wrong.

thank you - I bought the plugs and wires and started poking around in the engine bay. Yowza - lots of the wire harness plastic coverings are brittle and grey, or are missing. I neatened some up, replaced some zip ties, and installed new covering over the alternator wire. I will have to...

Got the plugs and wires today - Bosch double platinum which crossed to OE. I noticed that one of my plug wire boots at the coil pack is a different color than the rest. Seems like whoever did this last could not get at the rear plug on the passenger side and just decided to leave it. I am...

I installed the LED with Halo lights today - pretty straightforward. I did use the CANBUS anti flicker modules, and have not played around with the JScan app yet. I did not get as far as installing the LED fogs, but I will get there. Wondering if it's easier just to remove the bumper. I...

good luck and let us know - take a photo if you can! I might have to do this someday...

one other thing to check - do both sides do it? If not, this is probably not it...but if you have a bad connection in the wiring somewhere - a cheap connector instead of spliced and soldered, for ex - that can cause a low voltage/high resistance connection and cause the issue. Similarly, if...

did you fix it?

you can easily add foam and batting to the stock seat and recover/reupholster it. I got simulated leather covers from Iggee which worked great. you could also take the seat to a local auto upholstery shop and have them rebuild and recover it for less than buying a whole new seat. or you could...

yes, you can also cut off the h13 connector and wire in the H4 - be sure to use soldered connections with heat shrink over them or some other very solid connection to make the splice. If you are adding LED's though, you might need to add anti-flicker capacitor/diode filters which you can buy...

I don't know who actually makes "Mopar" plugs and they don't sell them at the auto parts store...only dealer or online. I usually buy NGK or Champion. Anyone know the correct OEM type part no.'s for those?

I am using a permanently mounted unit from Panavise - works great. www.panavise.com I have a bracketron phone cradle attached to the Panavise.

I just bought an 08 with no real idea of service history and 150K. plan to replace the air filter, plugs, wires and serpentine belt - also check all fluids and probably change/renew the coolant. Other than that, tire pressure and regular oil/filter changes. Someone suggested replacing the O2...

failed shifter bushing at the stick end, or failed connection at the transmission end is my guess. The shifter bushing at the stick shift end seems to be a common issue just searching online...no personal experience (yet).

My LED's arrived today. Tested them on the bench - hoo boy - very bright! I now have weekend plans!

I got this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H852D49/?tag=jkforum-20 I mounted it underneath the bumber (drilled a hole in the bracket for the trailer hitch). It worked very well.

No worries - we are all here to learn. I have been looking into all my options, including Halogen and HID. I think with Halogen, you might really want to run a straight to the battery harness - better voltage to bulbs = brighter bulbs. The reflectors in the stock lights with the H13 will be...

So my 2008 probably does not have this feature I am guessing - but I will check. I just ordered the JSCAN app as well.

That's interesting. There are so many posts about flickering LED's and how to resolve it, but I had not ever seen this. I will certainly test it.

Brakes look very good - done by the PO right after he got the jeep about a year ago. I pulled a wheel off (changing the rear shocks) and brakes all looked new. One down.
