    No problem! If you don't know you ask and then learn. It's always preferable when the outcome is that there isn't any issue that has to be rectified!

    Re-gearing Help

    Not odd at all really, it's a factor of the connected mechanical components. The smaller the tire diameter, the faster the engine has to turn to maintain any given linear speed, all other things held equal. Since you verified the vehicle speed is accurate via GPS, a 35.25" actual diameter...

    Re-gearing Help

    Have you measured the actual wheel diameter as installed on the vehicle? Most (not all) tires are smaller than the listed diameter. If, for instance, your nominal 37" tire measures out to be 36" that could explain some of it... The calculated 2576rpm from the fear ratio chart would...

    I'm partial to e-lockers myself but that is what I have had in past (and current) trucks. I've never had a true-trac in a truck, but have in a street/track car and it performed nicely in both environments...

    P1644 - U0100 - U110B - Where to start?

    Since you will become our subject matter expert, I will be interested to see what "improvement" they have on the JL. 😛

    Oh gotcha, like an improved golf swing to reduce his score from bogeys?

    Camshafts

    I think there is also a sensor "relearn" process that has to be performed. Was that or the ECM reset done?

    Camshafts

    Yeah more basic info would be helpful. I deduced that it was a 3.6 based on statements of six cylinders, overhead cam. Left bank cam sensor is a good thought since the misfires are on cylinders 2/4/6. That would be a common cause... However, this issue seems to be common with both exhaust...

    Camshafts

    I'll state the obvious, but based on the data you provided I would say whoever installed the exhaust cams was off on the sprocket by a tooth.

    Make sure they are pushed down as far as they will go. One of mine was 1/16" or so too high on the post and that was enough to cause occasional issues...

    What all should be replaced when you do a head gasket

    It should have some form of fail safe cooling strategy for loss of coolant. Ford vehicles do but I'm not as familiar with how Jeep does it. Point being that you may be ok having driven only a short distance. Replacing head gaskets is a much larger task than replacing the radiator and...

    Undiagnosed overheating problem

    Have you checked the upper and lower hoses to ensure they aren't getting pinched closed? This happens sometimes either due to old age as the rubber degrades, a blockage somewhere increasing pressure on the flow side (resulting in vacuum on the feed side), or a combination of the two. Since...

    Suggestions needed for trailer hitch

    I have a 16 Sahara 2Dr as well... This hitch was on it when I purchased the vehicle but I like that it extends a bit further back. It's a Pro Series, which I know nothing about but it looks no different in construction than any other:

    Have you replaced the OEM battery clamps? Many have had an issue with those, including yours truly.

    2015 OEM 4-pin to 7-pin tow connector

    You didn't say what you are towing... if it's a camper I would get a small 20-30W solar charger and permanently mount it.
