    Brake behavior when hot?

    The kits I'm seeing aren't in the range of $20 - more like $50-60. I also like the idea of one piece that monitors a lot of stuff rather than finding places for a bunch of analog gauges.

    Brake behavior when hot?

    *bump* - one last try before I just let the thread die. Guess I don't even know if anyone here has one of these things. Let me know if running both of the following XGauges (at the same time) on your Scangauge 2 gives transmission temp: Wake Up ECU TXD: 07E01092 RXF: 045025920000 RXD: 3808...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Today used some JB Weld to reattach one of the little plastic inset pieces of my grille - hit a bird on the freeway that did an impressive amount of damage considering its size. But now the grille looks great again!

    Brake behavior when hot?

    Thanks, I'll look into that cooler... I would still appreciate it if someone could test those XGauge codes for me, since the autozones around here are being their usual unhelpful selves and not letting me demo one to test the code on my own Jeep, all the while pointing out that their return...

    Brake behavior when hot?

    I do want to monitor transmission temperature more closely in the future - can anyone with a Scangauge II see if the XGauge codes for the JK 42RLE work on the KJ 42RLE? Maybe a longshot, but I want a bunch of the features on the scangauge anyway - if it keeps me from needing to weld stuff to my...

    Nah, it came with the trac-lok, hoping to get a better one some day.

    Brake behavior when hot?

    I acknowledge bad driving in both cases, I was not being careful at all and was slipping too much on the way up. I do want to know how hot the trans got to turn the light on so I can know of any effect on fluid life. I did park and idle in neutral when the light came on, and the manual seems to...

    Brake behavior when hot?

    On a side note to the main answer I got on this thread, at what temperature does the TRANS TEMP light come on?

    Brake behavior when hot?

    Good to know. Hoping to do a thorough fluid flushing soon anyway. I'm not used to this whole automatic transmission thing - was much easier to use compression braking in my old stick shift XJ.

    Brake behavior when hot?

    So I went up/down a little nearby mountain today. On the way up I wasn't doing a very good job and managed to get my "TRANS TEMP" light on due to excessive slipping (I assume), but other than that had no problems. But--- On the way down, my brakes were behaving a bit oddly. I rode them too...

    Installing Cruise on 05 3.7

    I'd like to install cruise on my 05 Liberty. I know the MOPAR kit has been discontinued, but jeepsareus is selling it still - whether they are putting the individual parts in a pack or selling old surplus parts I don't know. I know others have had success installing the pack from them, but I'd...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Didn't exactly do this today, but over the past few days. Back from my Wyoming trip, giving the 'new' KJ a good workout on desert roads. Highlight pics here (link)

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    @Tinkrr - I'm looking to do the same on my 05, have any wisdom you may have learned in your install? @seabass1858 - got those tires on this last week. Loving them so far, good ride and great grip. Today I took my Jeep to Wyoming. Heading out for the desert tomorrow.

    What does everybody pay for their fuel

    Here in SLC area, I've been driving to Riverton whenever I need to fill up because the stations there were in a price war keeping the fuel down to around $3.47 - unfortunately it seems to have just broken and the price went up 30 cents overnight. Eww. $3.69 about the best you can find around...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Hi all, first time poster after getting my first KJ late last week - an 05 Sport with the offroad and towing groups. It replaces a wonderful but very old XJ I've driven for the last forever. Today, got some decent tires to replace the street-rated ones the car lot had put on it. I celebrated...
