Took it to the dealership on Monday thinking I had a clock Spring warranty issue and was told it's actually the Vehicle Dynamics Module (or whatever the correct term is) (NOT under warranty). Great. :rolleyes: Told them to hold off until I'm prepared for a $450 repair and brought it home.

Then this morning I got the P0302 DTC. :mad: I have a call in to the dealer to see how they want to handle it, but I'm seeing a new cylinder head in my future. At least THAT will be warrantied. One of these days I'll finally get around to installing the Spyntec hubs, RCV shafts, and Racelines I've had sitting in my garage for over 6 months now. As Rosanne Rosanadana said, "it's always somethin'."

Will have to check compartability year wise but pretty sure I have one of those VDM in the garage....

Put a sticker on my brow. I've been decal free for quite awhile so this is a big deal to me lol. If anyone deserves a place on my jeep, it's RCO.

Marcus does it right🍺

i hate and fear them because of constrained energy is dangerous as hell but you could just rent for free at AutoZone,oreilys ,advanced auto a set of coil spring compressors and CAREFULLY compress each rear one at a time enough to slide the wedge under and up on the retaining hump. Be careful but that's likely what I'd do to make it faster..:jeep2:

Alpine X209-WRA NEW!

Hey guys, the new Alpine X209-WRA is out and when I looked it up, Sound of Tri-State came up with it. It looks like they have the cheapest option, so I called them and they said they'd give me $300 off and made up a coupon code for me. SOTS300 and I tried it multiple times and found out you can use it so I wanted to give everyone a heads-up so you can take advantage of the coupon while they have it up!!!!

Took off the winter tires and put on a set of BFG 35x12.5 KM2'S. Got rid of the Detroit Locker I put in last fall swapping it for another ARB Air locker and changed both driveshafts. Put a pair of Kicker speakers in the sound bar but they didn't help much. Still buzzed so looks like it's a new headunit next week. Bought a full length bimini top for when I pull the top off next week.

Dealer wanted $318 to fix the leaking tranny cooler lines, how about no...got some clamps and gates radiator hose and viola.

Still dealing with dash lights, which I think are a rear wheel speed sensor, but also got a code P3460, which I cannot find anywhere for this vehicle. Anybody have a clue on that one?

ok. This is almost 1/2 a year after the post but I notice no body else commented on it so I will ; isn’t your ATF+4 transmission fluid very , very burnt colored? Sadly, I know that sh*t intimately ( & have probably consumed small amounts involuntarily:nono: ) so I know it’s red,wine color when untainted. I just see what was in your catch pan when you were replacing those horrible designed weephole crimps & wonder if you changed fluid since then or if your 42RLE is still runnin brown tranny juice?
