    Magnaflow cats don't fit so good.

    Left side hits front drive shaft... Ground down excess metal on cat to clear, almost but not quite. I had to leave my Jeep at my friends house, going back today to rework it. I thought that maybe it was for 2WD only but Magnaflow's website shows 2 part numbers with no distinction for 2WD or...

    Walker SoundFX muffler - anybody have it?

    Loud or quiet? It's fairly new for the KJ but they have had them for other Jeeps.

    High mileage oils

    I didn't want to hijack a thread (2.4 burning oil) but here's a question I have... So the same weight high mileage oils are thicker? I thought they just had additives to condition seals or bearings, etc. Possibly higher detergent too.

    Jeep Sales Numbers

    I found this interesting, not only Jeep's numbers weren't that far down this time last year but look at how many other brands they out sell. Of course it's not much market share. http://spreadsheets.latimes.com/auto-sales-feb-2011/

    Radiator Install

    I am getting ready to replace my radiator in my 2006 KJ. Do I really have to remove the bumper & radiator grill? Some of you have referred to the battery tray. I am not sure that mine is in the way but the relay/fuse box in front of it might be? Also I may hook up the radiator trans...

    Best way or place to get a spare key?

    I am down to 1 now, I just lost a set of keys over the weekend. I believe I have the original numbered key tag somewhere.

    Why do they call them Soft 8s?

    KJ owner gets the "Jeep wave"!

    Happened to me tonight, driving in the snow. Other Jeep was a Cherokee. Sort of by default. LOL! Or maybe it was just a friendly wave? We were the only 2 vehicles on the road other than snow clearing equipment. It's a snow emergency phase III, we were not even supposed to be driving. We...

    Finally changed my plugs...

    73K miles and they are toast. I expected them to be burnt wide and they were. Not that I have seen this for myself, I'll be quicker about it next time, LOL. 52 minutes start to finish with hand tools. Yeah cylinders 4 & 6 slowed me down some, still pretty easy...

    KJ vs. KK comfort

    I know the seats are nicer in the KK but is there any more space to move your feet around in a KK?

    BCM for my friend's new KK?

    Just delivered KK Limited built 7/09. He is having intermittent problems with keyless entry and remote start. Also the TPMS has an error code. (I don't know the code.) The dealer ordered a BCM. Sound right? I can believe it if those functions were on the same IC chip, otherwise I am suspicious.

    Cloth Seats TSB

    Did you know there was a TSB for this? 23-015-06 Judging by the warning, Chrysler must have bought a few seat covers for the problem... SUBJECT: White Color Water Mark-Like Discoloration On Cloth Seat Surfaces OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves cleaning the cloth seat surfaces. MODELS: 2002 -...

    I am in the club now...

    My left rear window regulator just blew out today. I have already pulled the panel and inspected it. I can pull or push the window up and down with my hand. Window is in track, motor turns, nothing happens so it must have blown a cable or gear. I just did a search and I can see the problem...

    oil change interval

    Since I already know everything... ;) I just got around to reading all of the oil change interval section in my owner's manual. (Skimmed it before, my mistake.) I was surprised to see that they say not to leave oil in more than 6,000 miles or 6 months under any circumstances. I agree with...

    06 fog lights

    I just installed the Mopar kit in the grill, it all went well. One minor detail... the supplied 20 amp fuse is no longer needed as there are no terminals in specified fuse slot. I was happy to see the lights work without it. BTW - My Liberty's build date, 06/06.

    RBQ radio with Sirius

    Does it display channel name, artist, song, etc. when in satellite mode? My RBK does not. I am thinking about picking up a RBQ with Sirius. I will have to see what the protocol is with Sirius for changing radios.

    Bigger oil filter? in a 3.7

    I haven't actually been under my Jeep yet but it is oil change time. In my Neon I run an older Dodge V8 filter for a little more capacity and possibly better cooling. This is at the expense of some ground clearance but it still does not protrude below the oil pan. Is there a similiar trick...
