    Pinion Bearing is out. Salvaged or Rebuild?

    Thanks for all the help everyone. I went with the higher mileage axle. The other one had heavy damage to the driver side rear, not sure if it would've affected it or not. Removing the old axle and putting the new one in wasn't too bad. I've changed fuel injectors in my LB7 Duramax so...

    Okay, what do you guys think? Used axle with 127k miles for $250 or 81k miles for $350. My jeep has 198k on it.

    Pinion Bearing is out. Salvaged or Rebuild?

    My pinion bearing has gone out. The jeep has 198k on it. I've looked into rebuilding the Chrysler 8.25 and it seems a little daunting, I haven't totally ruled it out. I took the rear cover off, everything seems fine except for the fact that the pinion has some up and down play. I found a...

    Loose Steering. Which Parts?

    Thanks for the info, I haven't done any serious maintenance to a rack and pinion system. Only my 2003 silverado. I was not aware that I needed to check the bushings on the steering rack, they looked fine though. I had some time to crawl under it and look at things while my wife turned the...

    Loose Steering. Which Parts?

    Wife's daily driver (a 2006) has 197k on it. We've owned it since 125k. It's time for tires again, steering has loosened up a bit. I plan on getting it aligned but I'd like to replace whatever needs replacing first. What steering parts usually allow the most play? What's the best way to go...

    New Tires on my 07 KJ Limited

    I have 60,000 on 4 of them. Was considering a strictly highway tire this time but I may go ahead and get another set of the dynapro AT/M. I am on my second set of them on my silverado 2500HD and like them.

    How bad is this? Moisture in oil.

    Been using mobile 1 conventional as long as I've had it. Checked the PCV valve and all the lines. Everything seems to be clear and working. The sponge in the air box was in pretty bad shape though. Here ya go:

    How bad is this? Moisture in oil.

    It's cold by my standard. About 20 degrees fahrenheit in that picture. Saw 7 on the thermometer last night and 12 this afternoon.

    How bad is this? Moisture in oil.

    My wife commutes in this jeep. 65 miles a day 5 days a week. All highway. I wouldn't really call it a short tripper. I guess I will look into the service bulletin or eliminating the PCV system. Thanks for the responses, I have been worrying about this.

    How bad is this? Moisture in oil.

    The last oil change was on the first cold day of the year. At that time I noticed quite a bit of moisture coming from the exhaust and some buildup on the filler cap. I went to the auto parts store and loaned some tools. I checked compression, pressurized the coolant system, and checked the...

    Anyone ran Cooper Discoverer H/T?

    I have the 10 ply Hankook Dynapro ATM on my Silverado, its a diesel 3/4 ton, I really like them. My main concern for these tires is dry pavement performance and ice. I'll keep the Hankooks in mind, that may be what I use since I've got some experience with them. What about Firestone LE2s? Edit...

    Anyone ran Cooper Discoverer H/T?

    I'm thinking about buying these tires. Mostly my wife drives the jeep to school about 60 miles a day 5 days a week. I would like to put something more aggressive on it but I feel like these may be a smarter choice in case she gets caught on a little ice. Has anyone ran these? Is there any...

    Limited slip or not?

    Ok, based on everything I've seen I do not believe I have trac loc. I is not listed on the build sheet or the axle sticker and the tires rotate in opposite directions when its lifted up. Thanks for your help.

    Limited slip or not?

    Hey, I bought a 2006 sport about 2 months ago with 127,000 miles on it. The jeep has been great and so has this forum. I am trying to change the rear diff oil but I don't know if it is limited slip or not. I have the build sheet but that didn't really help. There was no sticker on the driver...
