Simple oil change. Then went to tackle new boots on the tie rods. One stripped castle nut and 3hrs later I got one of four boots replaced😠

This. Same thing happened to me. Dusty Trail = Clock Spring Failure. At 95k I think you can still fall under the recall.

I think you are close but I would expect some negotiations trying to get it into the teens with listing it at $22k. Just for a reference point. Bought my "new to me" 08' JKUR last year for just over $26k. 4DR, Auto, 65k miles, and close to $12k in upgrades (Lift, Armor, Axles, Lighting...

Finally got time to do plugs and wires on the 3.8l. Not too difficult but man that’s a tight engine bay. Used to my full sized GM with decent room. Made another quick attempt at the exhaust leak but that will be left for a mechanic. I don’t want to snap off the heads of some old rusty bolts. Scott

I think by him stating he has one wheel locked up front and rear means he has open diffs. So again the R&Ps are good just total bind in the TC, I believe.

Like @BLACKJKU said, transfer case. If it rolls in 2wd you can rule out binding in the ring and pinions. Also sounds like you can shift fine at speed? So the transmission is okay. Only thing left is the transfer case. Next step would be to pull the front drive shaft and put it in 4WD. If it...

Good to see you over here… These guys already got the gearing right. All that climbing up in the Sierras might be a consideration as well. I’m happy I got my 5.38s for my 37” tires. Although I need it with a weaker 3.8L. 5.13s and the 3.6L are a decent combo for 37s. For a 2015 and some flat...

From my experience most feedback in the stereo come from routing power and signal together. Is there any spots where the Aux cable runs with power associated to the headlights? Are these the standard head lights or the ones with the LED halo? It could be the location of the LED controller as...

It’s just electrical interference, common when wiring/routing new equipment. Few ways to solve it: Change routing Shielded cables Better grounding Car Audio Fix I still have this issue slightly with my rock lights, I just rarely run the rock lights and care about the radio at the same time...

Check the steering stops. Looks similar to a rub at full lock.

Really sounds like a grounding or possibly some parasitic drain? With everything you described I would check connections at the ECU for signs of degradation or animals as well. Could have a wiring harness(es) going bad. Man thats a lot all at once. Everything you show, short of the TPMS...

If you have a way to do so measure the Driver Rear pads accurately, pair of dial calipers? If its flat across the entire pad I would suggest a flush of the line. Possible contaminants in the soft brake line. Even moving a soft line during a pad change could cause some dislodged material. If...

Now Free. Want them come grab them.

One week now without the squeak. The hard line is replaced. The braided line for the driver front had some significant damage, like it made contact with the shock on full compression. Hard kink near the caliper. Possible culprit. New silicone coated brake clips are on as well. With all my luck...

Seems like snag after snag on this. While I was able to easily get the stripped bleed screw replaced, I ended up with a stripped thread on the hard line flare nut. Now I’m on the hunt for a replacement line for the driver front to finish the brake line replacement. As she sits now:

So. I’m 3/4 way through swapping in new brake lines. Snapped off bleed screw from the previous owner stalled the full install. I will say, no change with the new lines so far. Still a squeak. The pads I put on were ceramic/carbon Power Stop Extreme Pads. Next try while I change the last brake...

Looks like a lot of the NFs have opened back up and people are heading back out. I know Slick Rock, Rubicon and Sour Grass are gonna be packed. But I wanted to run something soon. Was looking at Niagara Rim or Corral Hollow OHV ( Bear Trap Cabin). Anyone heard any plans? Want to join along if I...

So I bought my 2008 JK used last December and loving it. Although there has been one thing I can’t get solved. After a wheeling trip I noticed I had a stuck caliper and a bad seal. I ended up replacing the pads, rotors, bearings and seals. Re-greasing the caliper slides and everything looked and...

@BLACKJKU Thanks. Warm two days then monsoons the other two. Lots of washed out roads and flash floods. @fishfam_log on Instagram for more trip pics and video.
