    Our family Adventure WJ "Dinosaur"

    i think it was a t-50... but do yourselve a favor and just get a little torx set like this: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Stanley-11-Piece-3-8-Torx-Bit-Set/14146076 as you tear into the WJ more, you'll find a few different torx sizes here and there

    semi-custom roof rack for my WJ

    this was done in 2009 and i had my first issue start to surface with it now (2012). one of the nutserts in the roof that it screws into started to come loose and so the rack was making a creaking sound when i would hit big potholes (because it could flex just a bit off the roofline). i just...

    2004 4.7L H.O. WJ transmission problem - P0988

    sent you an email with some diagnostic info... but for future people that might need this thread, turns out i was previously looking at the diesel tranny manual, the correct manual does have p0988 which is a problem with "4C pressure switch sense circuit", as you already knew. but it also...

    2004 4.7L H.O. WJ transmission problem - P0988

    ah good to know that key trick does not give the specific TCU codes, only regular DTCs. i don't know which scan tool you are using, perhaps it's interpreting the Chrysler TCU codes differently than an official DRB III tool would? maybe worth an hour or 2 of time at the dealership for...

    2004 4.7L H.O. WJ transmission problem - P0988

    does the key trick report the same thing? my FSM has a list of TCM 2-digit codes and the standard 4-digit DTC's as well, but no 988 in there.

    Hot water shower quick connects, what are you guys using?

    i first tried air lines that were advertised as brass, turns out some of the internals were steel and rusted up quite a bit, clogging the system.

    XJ, WJ, WK, JK which one do I build, I really like them all

    define what type of trail and difficulty level you intend to use the vehicle for. JK - XJ - WJ - WK: that's the order of off-road capability per dollar spent on aftermarket. i.e the JK has the most ability stock, the WK requires the most money to get it to perform at the level a JK can stock...

    The Triple Threat Grand Cherokee (2003 WJ)

    camped overnight at red creek last weekend. ran from needle rock to bartlett dam road on the way. then learned to do some basic welding over the past few days. fixed my front control arm axle-side brackets that had too large of holes in them by welding some 1/4" thick grade-8 washers to...
