Me, either, I guess. ;)
My regular favorite independent neighborhood shop lost their tech, so I went with the closest big-box place.
Unless they can make good on it for free after I put some miles on those new bushings, the hunt continues.
I had the LCA done under recall a while back. Before then, it was a bucking bull with every change in throttle!
Replacing *all* the front stuff triggered this alignment. I figured it would be near perfect after all those new parts and 7 hours at the neighborhood Firestone. Not so much. I'll...
Got an alignment after replacing a pile of suspension & steering components. Still pulls slightly to the left. Firestone said there's an adjustment that has to be performed at a dealer. Whatever could it be?
It's better now than it was before, and they gave a massive discount for as much...
I swear I saw this horse move. It requires further beating:
Which school of thought do you belong to? I'm gearing up for Option 2, but I'm on the wrong side of Experience to have an opinion.
^^ What kind of spray setup are you using, and are you happy with it? I've been casually considering dabbling, but it's a big buy-in just to make a mess with cheap equipment. ;)
Ooh! Good idea. Shop rate for that stuff, plus shop-price parts, has gotta near two grand! (?)
Thanks for the support and kudos. ❤️
Up next, but not necessarily soon, might be the heater core.
I'm pretty bad at this wrenching stuff, but I enjoy it and I'm stretching my abilities.
It started with a persistent PS fluid leak and some "uncertain" steering.

The 2021 Nicholas Cage "History of Swear Words" is pretty entertaining, if not a bit cringe-inducing from time to time. There's some highly quotable lines in there. :cool:
For context, I plan to tie a ribbon on the t3rd of a Jeep that sits in my alley. It needs a heap of work to remain roadworthy -- or to at least restore roadworthiness.
I suppose it's hard to solicit acceptable alternatives when the first pass is censored. "Bird" is the word, but it starts with a "T". (And hits the fan) t0rd? ****?
Um, Happy Memorial Day.
Pardon my juvenile effort to determine if the word **** will be censored. I'm considering a write-up of my pending adventures in the garage in an effort to give back just a little of what this forum has given me. Establishing the permissible lexicon seems like a good first step. :cool...
That's crazy. It ***** when you try to make something better and it just gets worse. Been there.
I'm stumped. Hopefully smarter kids that I will chime in.
I wonder if doing a quick ECU reset is worth it. It's *almost always* harmless. I would say "always", but I'm shy on universal...
Are Junction Block C1 pins 28 & 29 hot with key in RUN position? (Ref page 883)
Is Fuse 25 at Junction Block C1 happy? (Ref page 883)
If it were my car, I might swap the A/C Control with a junkyard part. They cost $25 from the yard and $60 if you can find it on eBay? I know it's throwing...
I'm no computer **** kid, but it looks like maybe both A/C Control and Rear Wiper Control are routed through Body Control Module at Connector C1.
Maybe disconnect that bad boy, clean it up, and see if everything looks kosher?
