a bit of a hard shift at times before it warms up (needs a bit more rpm before it shifts) but no codes

no, haven't touched anything with the speedo previously, or the tranny... closest was installing the rubicrawler

auto 42rle

So weird issue with my 06 LJR Saturday... started it up in the morning, ran fine, no codes... got on the highway and noticed the speedometer was swinging up and down by like 10-20mph, and reading way higher than I was going. Confirmed from others on radio that I was doing about 50 and the guage...

Yeah... we got dumped on working on the trails at Walker Sunday... but just that one day. Saturday was upper 70's, Tuesday was 80+ lol. Me running the rock hopper in the downpour :) fun times!

Well, if you ever want to run around Walker, it's about an hour north of me so happy to go!

If any of you are thinking of visiting Walker Valley soon, check out upper Timber Tamer trail... we just spent the last two days rebuilding the top half (rock section). Should be much more fun now, a variety of difficulty (a couple spots are probably buggy or seriously well built big tire rigs)...

Quick reminder if anyone is thinking of going... today is last day for early bird signup :)...

Would love to, but will be working on the Jeep this weekend, some fixes from Trail Jam and working through clearances for new tires.

A little self promotion... event my club is running at Walker Valley. https://timbertamers.org/halloween2025/

for what it's worth, it's easier the other direction :)

I was about to say "on those first rocks you have to climb the peak on the left then bear driver a bit to grab the rock behind it" when crash got out and gave you the same advice lol. Those rocks catch a lot of people... I barely get over it and need just the right line, but I still scrape/bang...

Rubbing on something?

OK, no prob, thanks for letting me know... we can reschedule... not like I don't have anything else to do around the house lol.

My wife loves it so much she wants to drive 50% of the time

So, since Crash is showing you around Tomorrow @Wildman I guess that means you're leading on Saturday right? :D

Don't need to read it again, my statement stands.... forget about how, (dropping psi), the root of his question was ... is it harder on the vehicle if you crawl with maximized traction or to bump it. the whole conversation about what psi is best to achieve that maximum traction is the side topic.

Actually, what the OP asked for has nothing to do with tire psi itself, he asked about crawling with high traction vs bumping. This whole tire pressure conversation is just a bit off topic :)

and don't forget altitude, and terrain type. On Snow runs where we expect to gain 3-4000 feet of elevation, I typically air down to like 3 or 4 psi to start with, sometimes airing down again after 2-3k feet of elevation gain if I'm breaking trail. And to stay on topic, even when breaking trail...

All the comments about what air pressure they run on what tire size are meaningless imo without more information like the brand/model of tire, thickness of sidewall/load rating, weight of the rig, width of the rim etc. I could run the same exact tire/size as someone 1500lbs heavier and we'd need...
