    Leaking from the bellhousing

    Hey guys, the other day I noticed a leak on the bell housing where the transmission mounts to the engine. I read up and looked into it some more, suspected it was the upper oil pan gasket, I replaced it with a new gasket the other day, cleaned everything up, and it's still there! There doesn't...

    New transmission installed

    Hey guys, a couple of weeks back I asked about transmission replacement cost, ended up getting a manufactured transmission instead of rebuilding mine because the torque converter was caked into the housing and wouldn't come out. I have had the jeep for a couple of hundred miles now and I had a...

    How much is too much for a transmission rebuild

    Ran low on fluid, seems like I have to replace the whole thing now, trustworthy shop, been around for 25 years and has great reviews. I was quoted a full rebuild for 3100 total with a 3-year unlimited mile warranty. Am I paying too much? The jeep is a 2007 2dr auto with the 42RLE (I think) it's...

    Rancho Geo bracket?

    Its more like the notion of thinking i needed an alignment and that was going to fix my issue with steering and highway driving. Once i got my alignment done 4 times i ended up realizing its more than my alignment. Here are 2 of my alignment readings and im running 30psi in 35s appreciate the...

    Rancho Geo bracket?

    So i installed my lift about 5 months ago now. It is the 10a spring swap with bilstein 5160 shocks on my 07 2dr. Netted me about 2.5 inches of lift And up until now, I have not noticed how bad my jeep rides until i got my new tires and alignment. The jeep is bumpy, inconsistent, and floaty. I...

    Emergency. Random hose not connected.

    Today I started feeling really hot air in my cabin and decided to check it out in the engine bay. 2 seconds in I notice a disconnected hose. Think its my air intake hose. Sound right? Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Townfair has failed my alignment 4 times now

    I got new tires from town fair recently and I paid extra for the 4wd alignment. On the day I got my tires, they could not do the alignment because they could not get the tire rod bolt to budge. I ended up getting a crown replacement tie rod that I installed myself. I go again and they did my...

    Hey guys! I have a 2007 JK 2dr in the metallic green color. I did not like the color initially but its growing on me and the price was right that I did not care when I got it. I want to get a different, more vibrant green on and was thinking of plastidip. I read a couple of threads from a while...

    I'm able to rotate my shocks, is that okay?

    I'll attach photos to explain what I mean but I can rotate my shocks side to side, i know that's normal but should my upper shock be be tight enough where it does not allow that play? I couldn't torque the upper bolt when i installed my shocks so i tightened them where the rubber is compressed...
