Ok cool, seems easy enough. I don't hear a leak, but maybe it's just small enough to be causing my issue.

No I haven't had it checked for leaks, but I don't hear anything. How sensitive is it?

'06 LJ, 4.0, 109k miles. I've owned the Jeep for about 5 years and I've always gotten a random P0431. It seemed to trigger most often when the Jeep would be at or near idle for extended periods. I finally got a code for a bad bank 2 downstream O2 sensor so I replaced ALL the O2 sensors with...

I'm working on the Dana 44 in my '06 LJ. I need a new "master shim" (that's what ARB calls it in their installation manual) for the driver side of my carrier. It's a thick shim that fits between the case and the actual thin shims that are up against the bearing race. It measures .119" thick...

I live in the Northeast. Finding a clean rust free LJ took me a year and a half and I had to travel 300 miles southwest to get it

First, if/when you see smoke, immediately pull over, shut the thing off, and investigate the source. Also, get a fire extinguisher and mount it in the Jeep. I have one in every vehicle I own. That said, check the left front brake. It's very possible that the caliper is hung up causing that...

Here's a simple question... What diameter are the body mount bolts on a TJ/LJ? I'd just go measure myself, but I'm on my ship and not near my Jeep. Thanks in advance!!

I much prefer steelies as well, but I went with 3.75" backspace aftermarket... IMO they make much more sense on something that actually gets offroaded. They're relatively cheap to replace if one gets destroyed and it's possible to beat the bead back into shape with a hammer if need be

Check out Core4x4. All 10 of my arms/bars are from them. With the track bar you'll get a Johnny Joint on one end a lifetime warranty. There are also multiple color options if that's important. They're seriously heavy duty and I've been very happy with them

My '06 LJ at Rausch Creek, PA

Perfect!! Thanks!!

Really? What's wrong or bad about the SS? That's what we always ran on the racecar.... Maybe I'm missing something? I'll look for those other lines. I'll invariably forget to put the flare nut on the line first....

My '06 LJ has the rear disc brakes. There are short rubber brake hoses that connect the caliper to the steel lines that run to the rear center brake hose on the driver side axle tube. It looks like the hose is crimped right to the steel line. Do I have to replace the entire thing? Where do I...

Why not just run the mechanical fan?

I'm running Core 4x4.. All 8 arms and both track bars. High quality and priced right with zero complaints
