Orchards Supply Hardware was like that. Everything was on a peg hook in a sealed baggy.

A long time ago I used to work at a car wash. You're going around the truck drying the truck off. When you get to the back of the truck, your shin finds the trailer hitch. The pain is no joke.

Just for giggles, I ran a Google search for 2018 Wrangler LS swap kits. There seems to be plenty available.

That's the middle of the road price. Prices on RockAuto range from $165 to $550.

They seem to be a point A to B car. If you have unintentional consequences happen and need to add in a point C and D, you may not have enough battery charge to cover point C and D.

It could be a fix for the first possibility, but it's not going to prevent the second possibility of the needle bearings falling out. That's a design issue with the cam followers.

There's two different possibilities from what I gather watching YouTube. Either the camshaft lobes wear out by themselves, or the needle bearings fall out of the cam followers consequently wiping out the cam lobes. This has been going on for years and years.

That's typical for a Chrysler Pentastar V6. Their camshafts are always wearing out and the needle bearings in the cam followers fall out. The engine has four camshafts that are about $300 a piece just for the cost of each camshaft themselves.

So that means the manifold valves don't prevent the refrigerant from entering the manifold from the canister, but only prevent the refrigerant from leaving the manifold; correct?

Are the manifold valves open as you're cracking the hoses at the gauges? Refrigerant canister valve open too?

I don't like the looks of a square drive on a chrome socket after it's been used on an impact for so long.

Whenever my plumber comes out to clear my sewer line, he always uses the Spartan model 300. The hyrdoblast machine he uses for grease in the drains at restaurants.

Good Heavens. You gotta ask ZeeOSix that question. 😁

I run Maxlife 10W-30 in both the mower and the car.

Yes but simple is always far more reliable than complexity.

Replace that plastic tube with a section of rubber hose and you'll be good to go.

All of those items you mentioned are way more reliable than a complicated car that can leave you stranded at the worst possible time.

No. Because plastic is a few pennies cheaper than rubber and saves the manufacturer $5.00 over a production run of 100,000 vehicles.

Looks like one of those plastic tubes GM uses because they're cheaper than a rubber hose.

That's the whole point. If you can't maintain them yourself, why have them?
