My gears where to high.....It caused the RPMs to go way up into 4000 range and I was barely moving. If I had a lower gear ratio (higher number) it would pull alot easier.

YES!!!! As long as you have the Factory Tow Pkg. I towed my YJ on a 1700 lbs car hauler from SWFL to Tellico and it worked great. Only problem was when I got close to Tellico with all the mountains, I ran out gear. (too high) I just unloaded and drove the YJ the rest of way. Temp Gauge never...
I'm not an expert but it looks like Someone hit a curb or similar object. There are scuff marks on the sidewall near the slice. If it's holding air I'd swap it out and use it as spare. Sidewalls are nothing to mess with, they can go at any time.

Oh yea....... My wife called me right after getting hers and asked the same thing. Without looking I called the dealer and they couldn't figure it out either and suggested I bring it in. When she got home I'm glad that I went and looked ](*,). Man, I would have been so embarassed #-o

That sounds great......wish I lived closer I'd be going for sure. I was in Toledo on work related stuff a couple of years ago but didn't get by and see the plant.

Thanks CableGuy.....That's pretty much what it looked like down there. I had a Large Square plug that went down into the pan and two smaller plugs near where the Tranny Lines are attached. I was also thinking that they could be wired in a series and by messing with one I colud create another...
I was unable to install the temp gauge, couldn't locate the sending unit with the crappy schematics given to me by local JEEP Dealer. So I guess I'll have to rely in the Idiot Light for now. [-o<

Thanks for the quick replies..... I'm a mechanical type of guy and located a trans temp that I will install tomorrow. It won't help if it over heats but at least I will be able to monitor the temps better than waiting on the Idiot light to come on #-o

What is the most anyone here has towed with their KJ? I have the towing Pkg and have towed some smaller trailers and like the way it does it, but I plan on towing a car trailer and YJ and will be pushing the envelope with the 5,000 lbs rating and would like to know if anyone else has done the...
Ditto on Log in
I came here to ask about the log on problem also. ](*,) But I am also having problems searching for post since last visit. I get a unable to search message (Aeh)

You are right about the "hole", it's a vent. Both of your diffs have them too, but they have a tube that extends up near the top of fenderwells. The best solution for the tranny is to do the same type of vent tube for it.

Just checking in, I've had my KJ since May and I love it. I belong to a Jeep Club and some naysayers had their doubts till i took off-road one afternoon. After I went places in 2WD that others were going they all agreed that it was in fact a real Jeep \:D/
