    So when are one of you guys gonna drop one of these in a KJ?

    Go over on LOST and poke around the CRD section. You'd need the 45RFE/545RFE trans at minimum set up for a diesel,$2000-$3000 right there. Different driveshafts and suspension to hold the extra weight,another $2000-$3000 right there. You'd need to mod the cradle to fit the Diesel,may...

    So when are one of you guys gonna drop one of these in a KJ?

    The Italian boat anchor that came in a KJ is not worth the effort. $5000-$7000 for one of those and then you will need another $5000 in mods to make it live much past 100,000 miles without self destructing.

    Confused

    "Legal" is not a set thing. My KJ was 100% legal in Colorado but Illegal in say Missouri. Just because you can buy it does not make it legal every where or at all.Many things are legally sold that are illegal to actually use on public roads.Wheel spacers and HID retrofit kits are the 2...

    45RFE slamming characteristic help..

    Did they do a trans re-learn procedure? A must after fluid/filter change on the 45RFE. Your looking at big $$$$ to turbo a 4.7 since they suffer from the same problems with boost as the 3.7.They do make custom forged pistons and heads but that is hit or miss nowdays to finding them and they...

    Snorkel

    X2.......................... Without doing the rest of the "deep water" fording mods you will damage many other items. I have many years of experience with actual deep water fording kits that allowed the vehicle to traverse 60" of water,stop,turn off the engine,wait 10mins,re-start engine...

    Part time/4hi

    Does not matter as the 242 t-case has the same shift pattern regardless of vehicle it's in. It's the same shift pattern in military HMMWV's besides missing the 2wd selection.

    Extreme oil consumption

    With high mileage it's very common for leaks to occur after fluid replacement of the diffs and trans. Synthetic gear oil likes to leak even in a diff that never leaked before,conventional gear oil usually takes care of that. For the trans ATF has a very high concentration of cleaners which...

    They have a updated fan relay(located about 10" under the battery),get the one from MOPAR only,like $80 and has a huge heat sink on it.Also check the connector,common to melt when the relay starts going. The KJ's temp guage is a "dummy" guage.At halfway point your engine temp is between 178...

    CKS Question. '02 3.7L V6

    No need to remove any tire but it's a super tight fit if not doing it up in the air on a lift. Have some drywall screws handy if it's the normal stubborn CPS and it breaks.

    2003 Jeep Liberty Concerns

    If you disconnect the battery or clear codes(or "keep alive" memory like in Ford's) it takes 1 drive cycle but not always since many "monitors" need to run and most need specific conditions to run.The TCM is constantly "re-learning".Some vehicles have a actual "drive cycle" and sometimes you can...

    Differential Gear Oil- Synth or Dino

    Easy way to test yourself,little costly and time consuming but if you want hard facts for yourself worth it. Works best on a hot day,90+ degrees. Drain rear diff and put in new dino gear oil(80w-90 or 85w-140,doesn't matter),hook up a 2500lbs trailer and blast down the highway at 75mph for...
