    What's the biggest wheel and tire I can fit on a stock TJ?

    All TJs can run 30s without a problem. Depending on the wheels you use, and depending upon whether they are aggressive tires with some tread on the top of the sidewall, you may experience a little bit of rubbing at ful turn. I have this with my 30" KO2s on stock "Ravine" wheels on a SE...

    CB radio locations

    At the time, I think I slapped some Fluid Film on it. But I just keep an eye on it whenever I'm cleaning. So far no problems.

    You also lose easy access to your 12v plug, so I put in a 90-degree adapter for my phone cable.

    No, it does not hit. But it comes very close.

    Any Reviews for B&G Tuning?

    It sounds like they only offer email support after doing the tune. So, in addition to being without your PCM for a while, it sounds like your only method for any potential corrections or improvements would be to send in again? But I do have a spare I could send in, so that makes it relatively...

    Any Reviews for B&G Tuning?

    Has anyone used B&G's mail-in PCM tuning service? Whether for a stock tune or with forced air, any experiences, positive or negative?

    Rancho Fail

    Yes, the Ranchos do run long. @TJim calculated here and here that the "stock height" set are actually ideal for 1–1.5" of lift in front and 0.5–1" in back. In case it helps, some other notes on stock-length shocks are here. But yes, cycling your suspension is the best way to know exactly what...

    97-06 Jeep Wrangler TJ ECM / PCM Tuning Options

    And based on some of what I've read here, plus a look at their site, B&G should also be on the list.

    Shock recommendations

    @grabeb. FWIW, my notes on a few stock-height shocks are here. I run the Ranchos, and would like to try the BlackMax sometime. I've read that these cheaper shocks can be inconsistent in their quality. I recently replaced my rear shocks with a matching set I bought from @AZBRAM, and it's...

    97-06 Jeep Wrangler TJ ECM / PCM Tuning Options

    Just came across this for the first time. Wondering if there have been any updates over the past few years. Are these still our best three options for software and only two options for tuners? FWIW, I'm told by a tech rep at FRP that 97 owners should go with SCT, not HP. But I haven't looked...

    Toggling a Supercharger

    Thanks. That's what I was wondering. Somehow the YouTuber I linked above has made it work on a YJ. So, was wondering if the same would be easier or harder with a TJ. Again, mostly out of curiosity, not for some supposed reason or purpose. In speaking with Isaiah at RFP, that's what he...

    Toggling a Supercharger

    Honestly no good reason. Just interested and curious. Seems like a supercharger's version of a turbocharger's waste-gate, if I even understand that correctly.

    Toggling a Supercharger

    Had another quick chat today. Isaiah and Ryan weren't clear on how to toggle the supercharger itself, so I shared the same video as above. But if that can be done well, they seem confident that the PCM can be tuned to accommodate both stock performance and the occasionally-engaged...

    Toggling a Supercharger

    I spoke with Isaiah at FRP. He explained that it wouldn't be possible to toggle the PCM from one tune to another. Instead, one would want a tune that works as usual when the engine when running normally, and yet also accommodates changes when the supercharger is switched on. I asked whether...

    4.0 air intake tube on 2.5?

    Thanks. So why does the 2.5 need this while the 4.0 doesn't? Also curious what's going on in that big box. Is it just an expansion chamber or what would I find if I opened it up? Edit: @Blackjack, I see you answered this a year ago here, where you said that the larger box was also a...

    4.0 air intake tube on 2.5?

    Reviving an old thread. Looking at Chris's post above that shows the 2.5 vs the 4.0. I'm wondering: I learned about the 'resonator' here. But now I wonder why the 4.0 doesn't have one? Now I'm also wondering about the large (expansion?) box over the throttle body. What purpose does that...

    I'm looking for a set of these. Seems they are on back-order everywhere. Anyone have a set lying around?
