    What did you do to your jeep today?

    same as it was when I installed the "lift"? like 1.5" over stock. I'm thinking 265 would definitely cause me issues, so i'm staying away from that for now.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Ok quickie question. Getting ready to buy new tires. Currently running 245/70R16 on a set of OG MOABs. Still have the uncorrectable speedo error on the jeep. Switching to 245/75R16 would get most of the error removed. However am I in danger of rubbing, even with the "lift" on the jeep as in the sig?

    So, clearly something is going on with my left front wheel speed sensor. The question is, what. It works perfectly fine once driving, but a-periodically on start up its glitcihing. I'm hoping it's just the sensor.

    I tired to remove mine once. they're stuck in the chassis side mount. luckily they don't need to be changed yet, but that'll be a war when the time comes.

    i'm assuming by "let go" you mean the clamp physically broke. and for the record, don't use non-tension clamps on hoses that mate to plastic fittings. that's a guaranteed way to crack something that might not be easy to replace.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    it wasn't voltage drop issues to the switches. I put the 4 "parts" ones in, and they work perfectly. I even up-down'ed them a dozen times straight with no issues. On the old ones, 1 wouldn't work at all, 2 would fail after 2 moves, and 1 would fail after 3. I even put the "bad" ones back in...

    apparently the low pressure switch can be changed without discharging the system, so I might just fire the part's cannon at this thing. it's a small shot

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Evaporator freeze up. according to the book: freeze-up control is by the A/C low pressure switch. so if i'm freezing over, is it a bad switch? or a bad accumulator? my charge fine, and my pressure are all within spec on both sides.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I took the time to find the lock-to-lock based on the flex cable getting stiff, found the center point, and locked it down until I installed it. Got it right on the first try. :D If you take it apart there's alignment marks inside the clock spring for putting all the bits back in, so luckily...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    spent 3 hours, basically doing 8 door latch mechanisms. took the 4 good ones out of the parts jeep, and stuck them in the khaki jeep. khaki's were failing; multiple cycles they would slow down and stop. also, tested my "repaired" clock spring for the 65th... works like a charm. magnetic strip...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    How the hell is it that all four door lock motors are failing. Three of the four will cycle once or twice, before slowing down and failing to move the door lock indicator. If you wait a couple minutes and try again, they'll move again, and then slow down. I tried taking apart the passenger front...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Interesting. So one of the major problems with the khaki jeep, was neglected maintenance. Transmission especially was WAY over due when I got it (like 136k miles on the factory tran.ny fill!) I put new fluid and filter in it, and it was having trouble locking up the torque converter (P0740...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    in 2 weeks, I gotta get the khaki jeep through inspection. after that I can drop the pan, pull the solenoid pack, and see if it can be saved. otherwise I have to seriously consider yanking the trans from the 65th parts jeep. the bright side of that would be, I'd then also have the NP242 pulled...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    well that didn't work. apparently I either got it wrong or they changed it, but it's not 3 months ahead but 2 months for inspection. also, the jeep is now tossing a P1775 for the transmission, so i'm definitely going to have to pull the valve body and clean the solenoids, sooner rather than later.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I got some serious FL sun damage on the khaki jeep. I'm thinking a can of that eastwood 2k clear might be on the menu as an experiment.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    will I or won't I, "fix" this clockspring out of the 65th. found a magnet inside had fallen off the plastic bits it was attached to. just finished letting it glue and sit for 24 hours, and reassembled it. should get it back in the car in a day or 2. then I need to decide do I "fix" it up enough...
