There are several sites where you can input the V.I.N. and search for specific parts. This should nail down the filter for you. Not a recommendation, but here's one: https://www.moparpartsgiant.com/

The bolts that hold the cover on often get corroded and are hard to get out, or worse, snap off. I just bought new ones to be safe. They are expensive for what they are, but I was lucky to get the original ones off the first time and I don't like to take chances. Also a dab of anti-seize...

Firestone has a lifetime alignment plan. I paid $120 in 2007 and that's it. Alignment can be checked every 6 months or 6000 miles for life. I think I've had it done about 16 times (works out to $7.50 a time so far, less as time goes by). The 2022 cost is $200 but they often have coupons that can...

I have an after-market transmission pan with a drain plug and I change the transmission fluid at every oil change, which is every six months. Every six changes I drop the pan and put a new filter on.

I use the same plugs with the same results.

Hi - My simple answer is "I don't know", but seems like a better problem to have than "put it in drive but won't move". Better meaning it might be fixable without a transmission rebuild. My thought . . . . not sure about the 42RLE (which I have) but most traditional transmissions have a...

Great Idea !

I've used Dueler A/T Revo's since 2007. The original Revo's developed road noise after some time, but the latest tire, the Revo 3 seems to have that fixed. For me, they are terrific tire, just not cheap.

I bought a new front drive shaft from Drive Shaft World for $116.64 Matched the old one perfectly and installed without a problem.

Yes PIA I did my passenger rear O2 sensor over the summer. I have about 6 O2 sockets and specialty wrenches. Nothing worked. If I could get some- thing on it, not enough room to swing. So I came at it from the rear and used a recipricating saw to cut the head off. Then I used a long...

Hi Guys If this has been mentioned before, I missed it. Dorman has a Split-style backing plate, or as they call it, dust shield. The price for a pair is less than one side of the original style, with shoes etc. from Mopar. There are pros and cons to this style and I really don't...

Thanks Thanks everyone for your input. Early next summer I plan to replace the cats/pipes etc. I just hope it lasts until then and I'll do nothing right now. Brian

Just did mine . . . . I just did both front drive shafts. I know there's a lot of opinions about drive shafts, but I choose new ones from Autozone. With a discount they had, I got them for $60 each and no core charge. They match exactly and time will tell if I made the right...

Hi Guys On the passenger side, near the transmission, the exhaust pipe has a welded hanger attached (see attached pic). This hanger looks very corroded and I'm wondering if there is an aftermarket bolt-on hanger replacement. At some point I'll need to replace the cats and...

Hi Guys I've read many times that our KJ can be driven with the front driveshaft removed. By front driveshaft I mean the shaft from the transfer case to front differential. I just want to verify this is correct and there's no ill effects of driving with it removed. Thanks . ...
