    RAM1500 is coming without Start/Stop system

    Same. FCA/Stellantis had to get aggressive on that after some actor didn't put his WK2 in park and got ran over. In my JLU, if I have the door open and start moving, it will slam HARD into park. I couldn't figure it out the first time it happened. But if I take the doors off, no problems! LOL

    RAM1500 is coming without Start/Stop system

    Same here. I've yet to fish mine out but it's bypassed and an H7 AGM replaced the stock main battery.

    Jeep Wrangler 4xe Recall

    That's actually hilarious. Jeep people are colorful that's for sure.

    Jeep Wrangler 4xe Recall

    The sky one touch roof is interesting. Originally didn't get mine with it since I have a ski rack and it wasn't compatible with one (50lb weight rating I think). My FIL got one with it and it is a cool feature, I'd probably use that more often than I take my freedom panels off. But I agree - it...

    2009 Cherokee General 3.7?

    I have the 3.7 in my 05 KJ with 233k on it. I had it in an 09 WK like what you're looking at too. Those cooling items are pretty common failure points. I wouldn't buy it though knowing it was overheating. They don't like that. Plus, speaking from experience, get a V8 one. Be it a 4.7 with a good...

    Torque Options for Wrangler transmission pan bolts

    Good tip - I tried it on one of my bumper end cap screws and the click is very subtle. Love the torque wrench. Worked great!

    Switching from 0w-20 to 0w-30 experience

    After reading almost every oil thread on the PUG 3.6, I have yet to see any evidence that oil can fix the camshaft/rocker arm issues. Mine made it to 120k before eating the bank 1 intake camshaft. Some do it at 5k, others never do, and can find examples of either situation running any kind of...

    2012 Liberty; coolant leak

    Likely the WP. Pretty common on these. Dead easy job if you don't have the mechanical fan. At 232k on mine and on my second, used a Napa reman. Just make sure you use HOAT coolant!

    Best quality open end wrench?

    I feel like the sweet spot is probably that Gear Wrench/Tekton/HF Icon zone.

    Best quality open end wrench?

    I haven't had to warranty it, but there's a few places around me that carry GW so I'm guessing I could warranty there.

    need some car wash soap recommendations?

    Meguire's D110, has been my favorite for years. Super concentrated, works great in a foam lance too. I've used other Maguire's soap (including gold class), rain-x, chemical guys, Duragloss etc and still prefer D110.

    Updated On-Road A/T - Continental Terrain Contact AT2

    Heavier tires don't have any upside to me, I like as light as possible. As long as the side walls are strong enough to handle rock crawling, don't need more weight for any reason.

    Best quality open end wrench?

    I like all my Gearwrench ones, no issues there.

    Torque Options for Wrangler transmission pan bolts

    Going to be doing a transmission pan drop on my Wrangler soon - thinking about getting a new torque wrench or torque adapter. Torque spec is 10-12nm or 88.5-106.2 in-lbs. The pan gasket is reusable (and has been reused once) so thought maybe a torque adapter could be nice so I could measure the...

    3.6 Pentastar purge valve/misfire issues

    I'm not quite sure what that sounds like. The only noise I'd have is a rattle under low load like 1200-2500 RPM. I thought it could maybe be spark knock and tried higher octane, but didn't change it. It's gone now. Never had it before the cam finally got bad enough.
