    Transmission Issues

    Limp mode and black oil. How screwed am I? I already overheated the transmission once 2.5 years ago and had the oil changed soon after. Now I have a P1745 and stuck in limp mode waiting for a time that I can get it to a transmission shop.

    Pandemic Series - Engine Swap

    I figured it's going to be too much work just to claim a V8 that not much more powerful than what is stock. A lot of the info I have come across has been for the 2002-2007 KJ and similar PCI bus models. Less computer headaches, but still an involved process.

    Pandemic Series - Engine Swap

    Shorter post than the axle swap, but still a bit of information to be processed. It’s been stated several times that the 4.7 is the 3.7 with an extra pair of cylinders. And that it uses the same motor mount location. So it should be a straightforward swap right? Get a 4.7 from a 2012 Ram...

    Pandemic Series - Solid Axle Swap

    Ok, hear me out. I've gone back to beat on the dead horse that is solid swapping the front of the KK. Why might you ask? I had nothing better to do during this pandemic. The biggest hurdle specifically for the KK that I have read about over and over on the forums has been how to make the...

    7-Pin Trailer Tow Wiring - park lamp

    Could ayone with the MOPAR 7-pin accessory kit take a look at your color codes on the wires to the 7-pin and possible meter read on your pins? This is specifically for the accessory kit post delivery, not factory installed. Wiring diagrams are different and the accessory kit is not included in...

    NVG241OR guts in an MP1522 case

    As the title suggests, would it be possible to put the guts of a JKR Rock Trac transfer case into the KK's MP1522 case? Having a hard time trying to find info on the internals for both to see what common parts they share.

    New Keys

    I've bought a set of flip keys off of ebay for $50. Had a hard time getting them cut until I went to a locksmith who would grind the keys, no computer. Reason being that the one computerized cutter I finally a local hardware store to try would not accept the aftermarket key. It needed some...

    Driver Side Running Lights not Illuminating

    There is power to the park lamp circuit. The white halo is lit. So I checked the grounds. There is good continuity with an oddity, the ground is going through cavity 2 not 1. No continuity through cavity 1 which is supposed to be the ground. I didn't touch anything with the electric so I'm at a...

    Driver Side Running Lights not Illuminating

    As the title states, the driver side park lamp circuit is not energizing. This all started after I reinstalled the everything from the radiator change. So far I have swapped the Driver and Passenger fuses, bulbs, and sockets and all work on the passenger side to rule those out. When I have...

    Bad radiator?

    Finally got around to test drive the Jeep. All systems normal with the new pump, clutch fan, thermostat, and radiator.

    Power steering pump options

    Took a while, but found the Ram 1500 3.7 power steering pump spec. Using that pump gains upwards of 1 gpm at 1500 rpm as well as 100 psi for the operating pressure. Theory is now that the pump should bolt into the same mounts since the 1500 pump I referred to is from the same 3.7 engine. I...

    Bad radiator?

    Was able to reinsert the e-fan with the clutch fan already installed.

    Bad radiator?

    Radiator update. New one is in with a new water pump, thermostat, and added HD cooling fan. Still have to put the headlights back in and put the skids back on after a fresh coat of paint. Also added in the radiator skid. What a pain in the ass to get the nutzerts installed... But looking...

    Power steering pump options

    That turned out to be 10" of lift, custom RCV shafts, clocked t-case, ORI struts in the corners, custom cradle drop, 9" center section, repositioned gas tank, shaved WK knuckles... A lot more work and money than what I want to put in. Plus it was a one off build that Marlin does not want to do...

    Power steering pump options

    Recently had it replaced under warranty. But when I had the radiator and fan shroud out, I got a good look at the front end. I'm setting up a phased plan approach to solid axle swapping my front end. This is just another proof of concept to perform because I don't think the KK spec pump would be...

    WAM Bumper

    Looks a lot cleaner than what is shown on the website. I'm a fan of the Hi-Lift location.

    Power steering pump options

    As the title suggests, would there be any pros in changing the Liberty 3.7 power steering pump with one from a heavier vehicle like the RAM 1500 with the 3.7? Got this idea from XJ guys using WJ steering pumps.
