    Front end Qs re new KJ

    If you don't want to lift it you can just buy a set of quick struts from Monroe - it is the whole front spring/shock assembly ready to bolt it - no spring compressor required. https://www.amazon.ca/Monroe-171577R-Quick-Strut-Complete-Assembly/dp/B0035R3X68

    Going neutral while driving

    What does your scan tool have for live data pids for the transmission? Do you have an actual and desired pid for line pressure? Usually if the pcm sees a voltage from the pressure sensor that doesn't line up with the data tables it will put the transmission into limp mode so you will still be...
