    Transmission cooler questions

    And I'll also say, there's absolutely nothing wrong with doing a pan drop and filter change. Just dont do any power flush.

    Transmission cooler questions

    The factory cooler does a pretty good job. I would get a scanner or OBD2 app (like Torque) or something like a BullyDog/Edge to monitor trans temps. See what it's doing while your on the highway or wheeling. Then decide if your stock cooler isn't up to task. I have an 07 that has a factory...

    New O2 sensor bad???

    If you have access to a scanner, you can watch the 02s live. ALso your fuel trims. Torque app with an OBD2 dongle works well for this at not a high cost.

    Does anyone have both a tuner and iDrive installed?

    That's good to know about the iDrive. I have the old RockKrawler JK 4800 race car in the shop, was wondering what that was. I thought it was different trans tunes, because the shifting is wonky on this thing. LS3/4L80 in it though.

    How to fully disable traction control and other electronic nannies on your Jeep Wrangler JK

    My 2007 I got used came with Antirocks and aftermarket axles. It would apply the ESC/TC while braking along a long sweeper. I put a hemi in it, so I ended up doing to the Hemi PCM, but I was able to disable (from what I can tell) all of the stability and traction control. I can now peel out on...

    Un-Official word: '3.6 dropping like flies'

    The driver side head problem is so common that my local dealer stocks them. The warranty did get extended until 150k miles or ten years. Multiple misfire codes are the main symptom, with miss and low compression on the affected cylinder.

    Compatible engine swap

    Your 2011 should be the 3.8. Which, in my opinion, is a turd. Low power being the main issue. I swapped mine out and put in a 5.7 hemi. A ton more work and money when replacing the 3.8. But if you're going to swap a non-3 8 engine, it'll be the same work involved, if not more, to do a 4.0 than...

    Torque and bolt sequence for head bolts intake bolts and more

    For intakes, heads, oil pans, anything with a spread out patter, start in the middle, and work out like Duster said. I just google specs with I need them, it's faster.

    2007 JK project

    Installed an ORO SwayLoc yesterday. Too much sway with both Antirocks front and rear for how I want to drive it on the street. :D I've never driven a lifted JK with stock sway bars, but this thing is a slot car now. It's awesome.

    Offset stud in falcon shocks

    You must be talking about the piggyback ones? There's an alignment tab that sets into the coil bucket, it aligns the shock in the bucket.

    2007 JK project

    Swap went really well. JSS engine and trans mounts, Hotwire harness, custom CBR radiator for the LX style engine. I made my own intake, and passed on the JSS dual battery tray. I may get his tray and intake box in the future to clean it up. Also got the PSC big bore steering box, AC compressor...

    Rock Krawler long arm handling? Single upper...

    Anyone running the old Rock Krawler long arm with the single upper link? I think it was called the Pro Long Arm. I have a JK that I'm trying to dial in the suspension. I got this Jeep as a project and it came with this kit with 4 inch RE springs. Antirocks front and rear. It currently is...

    2007 JK project

    Also got a WK for a donor drivetrain. 2008 WK with a non-VVT 5.7 and 545rfe trans. Going to do the harness myself but probably buy Jeep Speed Shop's motor mounts to save time. He's also going to flash my VIN onto the Hemi VIN. It has bsd lifters and possible cam, but I'm going to delete the...

    2007 JK project

    Bought a well loved 2007 JK from a buddy, with no front axle. He kept his RockJock, but I also bought the rear Teraflex HP60. Built a front SD60 for it using Artec's new Apex swap truss, and tone rings (these were a bitch). Also removed the front RockCrawler long arm and made my own...
