You can play dumb but you can't play smart.....

No noises. I've put it in 4H and 4L and nothing noisy at all. No leaks on the transfer case.

all i see is a chain, no rubber belt in the diagrams? No leather belts either.

Thanks for breaking it to me gently! So dont use 4WD until I rebuild the transfer case??

Hi All. Just changed fluid in my transfer case. 2005 Rubicon with the six speed manual. When I pulled the drain plug it looked like there were worms inside. I pulled them out with needle nose pliers. Strips of rubber. I'm guessing it has been rebuilt or replaced at some time and this is...

I'm afraid of magnets causing rust. I've seen it with the magnet signs on work trucks.

So I changed out the radiator and installed a OEM Mopar unit. What a difference. The temperature sits at 208 at 70 mph on the highway with AC on. No more creaping up. I have an auto transmission and that looks to stay cooler as well although the B&M temperature guage doesn't give me exact...

Got it. Rad and the fan clutch were on the list a while back when I changed everything else out. When I work my way through those two the entire cooling system will be new with the exception of the heater core. Probably should have just done it all when I bought the jeep two years ago like I...

Fan clutch causing overheating at highway speeds? Why, because it is staying engaged? I was wondering about that as a possiblility.....

My jeep is doing similar. It started a few months back. Last year I replaced water pump, thermostat and all hoses, flused the rad and heater core. I run using the OBD II and torque app on my phone. AC on around town it seems ok. 60 MPH on the highway it creeps up around 215. 70 MPH it...

Well, I made the move but didn't go with Bullripper or ATS although I apreciate everyones feedback. I went with street smart. My decision was swayed by two things. Street smart had a very good warranty. Street Smart had an office in the Central FL area so if I have issues I can walk in the...

Thanks for the info Reich. I'll likely go with the Bullripper as well.

Hey reich and drc....my tranny is starting to get worse with the shudder. How are the Bullripper and ATC transmissions holding up over few months they have been in? Still O.K.? If there are any other options I should look at let me know. AAMCO?

I came accross a 1x3 inch piece of aluminum on Friday so I cut and test mounted it as an overhead mount for CB and Ham radios......seems like it will work well. Next I'll paint it clean up the wires....all while watching Miami beat the Patriots! Strange day indeed. Oh, and added an antenna...

Thanks for all the input. I ran AWG 10 and it's about 18 FT for power round trip to the mounting location above the rearview mirror. The planned radio is a Kenwood TM-V71a. Needs about 13 amps max. Right or wrong, better or worse, it's just what I did..... KK4EJH
