    Shifter won't drop cleanly into drive after transmission swap

    2001 TJ auto just got new 32RH transmission and transfer case. Drives fine but when I’m putting it drive it doesn’t always “click” in. It stays in neutral even though the indicator is at D. I need to go a little past, to 2, then back up and it’s fine. Sounds like a little fine tuning is...

    CEL P0743 after new transmission

    2001 TJ. I6 with a bad 32RH transmission. Had a transmission from a 2000 put in, now have CEL on with code P0743- Torque Converter Clutch electrical circuit. Comes back on as soon as I clear it. Fluid is new and topped off. Ideas? Thanks!

    Need help finding Mopar crank position sensor

    @Tstewart1 Hey sorry for not replying sooner...had missed your reply. I couldn't even find a Mopar when my sensor shit the bed, so NTK was 2nd choice, but so far so good. Try the NTK...save a few bucks and maybe fix your issue. Let me know. Thx

    Need help finding Mopar crank position sensor

    @Tstewart1 yes that was the issue for me. The new crank sensor took care of it.

    Can a phone charger designed for a motorcycle be connected to a car battery?

    @Viking Jeeper hey...sorry i was unclear...the holder has a USB port under the bracket where you can plug in an iPhone cord. The wiring is just straight black and red wires. Thanks for your reply. Will hook it up and let the group know how it goes...

    Can a phone charger designed for a motorcycle be connected to a car battery?

    I have a handy phone holder for my motorcycle that does a really good job of holding the phone and can easily be turned to landscape mode for map use. I’m thinking about putting one in my jeep and I’m certain I can figure out a way to mount it securely. This is not for off-road, just driving on...

    Need help finding Mopar crank position sensor

    Just a quick follow up. The NTK has been running great. Granted, only about 1000 miles so far but knock wood...

    Need subwoofer installation help

    @Clarythedrill in case you still need an answer, check this thread, and jump to the end. "The positive wires are red and brown, the negative are black and grey. It's a little odd because in the LJ, with the sub in the center console, the positive wires have the smaller female connectors on...

    2001 TJ 4.0 32RH automatic shudders after shifting into 2nd

    What’s the adjustment on the transfer case? The 4WD works great when I engage it. The strange thing is from inside the Jeep, at takeoff, it sounds like the front tires are spinning, but I’ve filmed it and nothing visible is happening. Yes. Drove with rear shaft out and also front shaft out...

    2001 TJ 4.0 32RH automatic shudders after shifting into 2nd

    @LittleTankTJ i took her out today. When I keep it in 1st there's no shudder. It revs up, but stays smooth. Then depending when I move it into 2nd, it shudders. It seems to do it when there's torque pressure on the driveline (for instance, when the jeep was on a lift they were not able to...

    Hi @Jerry Bransford...Yes, checked it the correct way, and level is good. On the high side of the hash marks.

    2001 TJ 4.0 32RH automatic shudders after shifting into 2nd

    I’ll try holding it in 1st, then 2nd. If that isolates it, does that then point me in the right direction of a fix? I don't believe I have a distributor. The 2001 has the ignition coil. I had been experiencing misfires (and associated codes) but a new crank sensor fixed that. No Check engine...

    WTB: Need top arch bar for Bestop NX

    I haven’t used the softtop yet. I only got my Jeep back in February and have had the hardtop on since. I just got the Bestop 2nd hand and it was missing pieces like the surrounds and arch. Figured it was good to have all the pieces.

    2001 TJ 4.0 32RH automatic shudders after shifting into 2nd

    Hey @LittleTankTJ...Thanks...I've replaced the U joints in the rear drive shaft already. So far I've done the following the eliminate the shudder (without success): Note: no lift on the jeep. Stock height on 31s Tried new trans mount (new one too rigid so back to original) ATF fluid flush...

    2001 TJ 4.0 32RH automatic shudders after shifting into 2nd

    Just closing the loop on my own thread: I went back to the original trans mount, vibration gone. Shudder is still there. I’ve adjusted the bands and no change, so it’s looking like a rebuild or repair at least for the trans
