Hey everyone, as the title suggests I'm having some problems with the Jeep. This just started today (June 7th) on a drive back home from Orlando. Edit: Transmission fluid was just above the Hot marker on the dipstick just over an hour after it had been parked when it first started happening...

Yes, thankfully I didn't misplace the washer. I went out and bought a new bolt and brought it to the shop, it worked thankfully!

Very very late reply but it was the harmonic balancer like I posted before. I got halfway through replacing it and realized I didn't have all the right tools to get it done properly so I took it to a local shop. In and out for $100 I ended up going out to start up the Jeep with the hood up to...

Thank you! I had to make sure before I went bolt hunting at the hardware store.

I've been searching and searching and can't find the bolt size for the Harmonic Balancer/Crankshaft damper. Does anyone know? It's for a 2004 Wrangler Tj. I found that it's 1/2-20-1.25 for a 1998 Wrangler but I want to make sure that it hasn't changed for newer years. I have no idea what...

Happeed while moving and neutral/stationary. This mornining I went out to poke and prod at it/get a recording. I started it up and lightly revved it, threw the belt - looks like the harmonic balancer is bad. It's walked off toward the fan a good ways and caused it to throw the belt off. Just...

Edit: It's a 2004 4.0 automatic I've got a loud squealing sound that just started today when accelerating, I did some research but I'm not really sure on the culprit. Many posts said drive shaft if it doesn't make the sound when in neutral, but my Jeep definitely does. If the revs are up past...

Still been tinkering with the Jeep doing little odds and ends here and there now that it's running properly and one of those things was getting the A/C blowing cold, which I did. But, a few days ago it quit - won't turn on anymore, period. So I figure now's as good a time as any to think about...

Thanks Jerry! That diagram is a huge help.

I lost the longer of the two bolts somehow and need to track down a replacement. I know they're both 5/16"-18, but I'm lost for length. I've read both 1-3/4 and 2-1/4 for the length (From Cherokee with the 4.0L, figured it would be the same bolt length). And haven't found a ton on forum posts...

Sorry for the (extremely!) late response but the brakes are sorted, the mushy pedal and what not came down to 2 things, one of the bleeders seemed to have been ever so slightly leaking regardless of how tight it was and one of the calipers was bad. I went ahead and replaced both front calipers...

Cleaned the hose to the check valve/the ends of the check valve itself and the grommet in the brake booster, reseated it in the grommet and hose, and vacuum leak is gone. Tested the brake booster and it seems to be working well. Spongey brake issue persisted though, even after I just re-bled the...

Thanks! I think I'll try a smoke test tomorrow and if I can't find it I'll check the O ring at the booster/master. I'll report back with what ends up being the fix

I posted a while ago about a Jeep that I'd been working on after it having sat for many, many years. It's a 2004 wrangler 4.0. Thanks to a previous post I made earlier this year and a bunch of info I found just searching the forums, she's alive and running well! But, there's still one issue...

Hi all, I'm new to Jeeps and the forums here. I've read quite a bit since getting this Jeep from a family member and it's helped in figuring out the best parts etc to pick up as need be for it. But, there's a couple things here I'm looking for some insight on, thanks in advance for any...
