    Plow jeep!!

    I just need to be able to plow and be warm while doing it. The poor thing doesn't owe me anything at this point. I'm thinking once the motor does give up someone must want it for a 5 speed swap. I had to put an input shaft in it 20 some k ago(pilot bearing toasted it), everything in there...

    Plow jeep!!

    Haha, yeah that's the professional I'm going to make this vehicle last and plow with it for years route. I'm in the "the head gasket blew 20k miles ago, was stopped with blue devil coolant additive, and may go any second on a vehicle not worth fixing to me" route. I'd be ecstatic if it lasts me...

    Plow jeep!!

    It's for a utv and goes into a 2in front reciever. Bought the whole setup on Amazon for less than a grand I believe, plus once this dies, I just need a front receiver for whatever the next plow truck is. These are what I bought: 72 inch DENALI UTV Snow Plow Kit - for UTVs with a 2 inch Receiver...

    Plow jeep!!

    Sure do! Night and day difference. I'm running some sort of general grabber AT tires, so with snow tires I may not have needed chains, but with these tires I definitely did. KONIG XG-12 PRO are the chains of you were curious. Easy as hell to put on and they will start cutting through frozen...

    Plow jeep!!

    It actually works quite well once you get some weight and a set of chains in the back. Was pushing over a foot of snow without issue, even with it running on 5 cylinders half the time (haven't figured that one out yet). You cannot beat the turning radius of these things. I really don't want to...

    Plow jeep!!

    Figured some of you may get a kick out of this. 2003 with 215k miles. It was stuck in this photo, but that was my own fault (the other side is in a ditch). It pushed a lot of snow yesterday!

    Renegade light bar relay

    Yeah I'm back to square one. The site I ordered the switch from refunded me within 3 hours because they didn't have it. Ugh.. Looks like I'll be making my own switch & relay to turn them on. To anyone in the future who happens to stumble on this with the same issue, you're SOL & have to...

    Renegade light bar relay

    Anyone have any other ideas? I have started the process of getting my money back from the ebay link I posted, haven't heard from the seller in 16 days. Anyone happen to have a eq1-11111s relay laying around? EDIT: Scratch that folks. I was bored and decided to test the board to be sure it...

    Renegade light bar relay

    I guess now I know. Still waiting for that relay to come in. Looks as though the seller may be a dud. I may have to go with one of the lower rated relays and see how it lasts.

    Renegade light bar relay

    I actually have not tested the relay itself, but through my other trouble shooting, and the fact that there's a bulge on it, I confident that's what is bad. I haven't messed with desoldering it from the board, going to sweet talk a lady at work (who does just this for a living) into swapping...

    Renegade light bar relay

    Sorry for the confusion, yeah my post is full of hyperlinks. I didn't realize they wouldn't automatically be a different color and stand out. Every time I said "this" or the like, it was actually a link. So to gey back on track, I ended up ordering the one through eBay so I could solder it...

    Renegade light bar relay

    Here's what I'm looking at so far: 1, 2, 3. These are pictures of whats inside that momentary push button switch on the dash. A relays a relay, but this little guy is rated for 30 A, and I'd really rather not mess around with running lead wires off the board and out of the case for a relay...

    Renegade light bar relay

    Hello all, My light bar recently stopped working. Done some troubleshooting and I believe it's the switch/relay that has gone bad. Of course, this is an obsolete part (I did find one website that claimed to have it, but I've never heard of them). There is hope though, from some research...

    2003 Input shaft removal

    I thought I had read about someone doing that, but I ended up buying an input shaft instead. I've never been inside of a standard transmission before so I figured it'd be a good learning experience. I'll be popping it open here in the next couple hours. I probably should have ordered a...

    2003 Input shaft removal

    Hello all, I was wondering if anyone had experience either with removing the input shaft from the manual transmissions, or with repair sleeves for them. Rockauto lists the following for a repair sleeve: More Information for NATIONAL 99138 I also found the following for a replacement...

    Oil change without pulling drain plug?

    Hey you laugh but that's about what happned! I crawled back under and still didn't like how it felt pulling on it. 10 or so bangs with the impact though and she broke free! After that I had one of those "why didn't you just do this in the first place dumbass" moments as I scraped the rtv off...

    Oil change without pulling drain plug?

    Yeah I understand it sounds insane to cut the cross member. Normally I would be the first one to say that it's a terrible idea. I'm keeping it in the back on my head though if I get into a pinch. I did find the post I saw it in: 3.7L Oil pan replacement pictures - JeepForum.com It's in the...

    Oil change without pulling drain plug?

    Thank you for all of your replies. I did not get a chance to mess with it last night, but I think I'm going to try to get that drain plug out tonight. I'm going to pick away as much rtv as I can, warm it up some, and put my cordless impact on it. Worse comes to worse I will seal it back up...

    Oil change without pulling drain plug?

    Hello all, Been lurking here for a couple weeks since I bought an 03 liberty renegade. I could use some help though so I just made an account. As the title says, does anyone know of a way I can change most of the oil without pulling the drain plug? It may sound dumb, but I just crawled...
