    OPDA modification updates?

    Crap. Wrong Bill. It was the thread from Bill M. https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/interesting-opda-findings.32670/ So the supplied Crown sensor does the trick. That's good to know. I suspect that's our next step with mine then.

    OPDA modification updates?

    Yeah, those mods that I mentioned weren't something I ever looked forward to doing. Kudos to those guys who did go that extra mile though. Pretty crafty mods, no doubt. It seems a simple addition of a zerk fitting might work also, but idk. Was this with your original sensor or a new mopar...

    Man, that turned out great! Nice job. I've got nearly the same exact crack on my passenger door.

    OPDA modification updates?

    Same here. If installing the Crown unit is all it takes, I'll be content with that being the repair. It definitely could be worse.

    OPDA modification updates?

    I'll have to read through the link that Mr. Bills sent, but the modifications that I remember was the "Oil Cup Mod" and another where the OPDA is modified to have a bit of oil poured into it, having the oil level just below the tone wheel.

    OPDA modification updates?

    I'm nearly there myself, tbh. In 2013, two of the engine's driver side mounting points for the motor mount broke loose from the block. From 2017 and on, I've continued to have other issues. Definitely the most problematic vehicle that I have ever owned. But, from what I understand, GM had...

    OPDA modification updates?

    Oh okay. I suspected as much, since there isn't much talk of them anymore. I'm at a point with this issue now where I'm feeling desperate, so I figured I'd reconsider doing one of them if this comes to that point. The Dorman unit is what I have in there now. It did fairly well for the past year...

    OPDA modification updates?

    Back when I was frequently visiting JeepForum, over a year ago, I had seen a couple of folks who had modified their OPDA in various ways and reported back with positive results, but their modification was fairly new. Has anyone here modified or know anyone who modified their OPDA? How has it...

    Return of P0344

    Well, we've found a problem with the dealership's suggestion. The rev limiter issue happens with the transmission in neutral. No idea why I hadn't thought to try that beforehand, but the transmission tech at another shop knew right off-hand that the jeep doesn't have a transmission issue that's...

    Return of P0344

    So, I finally got it in to the dealership and they're telling me the transmission needs to be overhauled. They did say that the OPDA positioning was around 12 degrees or so off. They adjusted it and set the timing, but the remaining "limp mode", where it hits the 2,500 rev limiter is because of...

    Interior Maintenance Restoration and Repair

    Nice! That was a good price for the panel too. Back when I was looking around for one on ebay, I never saw one less than $65 +shipping. There are a couple panels in mine that have darkened like yours. Like yours, mine have more of a red tinting to the look of the khaki, but the 5545 matched...

    Restored my interior door panels

    Looks good! The whole interior looks great. I have contemplated on trying the same with my door panels before spraying them. The tops of mine look very similar to yours. This does help. Thanks!

    Good deal. I'm interested in seeing the comparison when you get a chance. I've just done a little more searching around on Miami Corps website and came across a page for downloading specific Detroit sample books via pdf file. I did that and I believe I have found both fabrics for mine, but of...

    No problem. Hopefully they still have what you/we need for our jeeps. If you will, let us know what you find out from them.

    Found it quicker than I had expected. The Miami Corporation https://www.miamicorp.com/ National Fabric Company (located in Kansas City) https://national-fabric-company-inc.business.site/?utm_source=gmb&utm_medium=referral I haven't dealt with either of them, yet, but these are the places that...

    Interior Maintenance Restoration and Repair

    I asked a similar question before about the khaki fabric in mine. I'll have to look back to see where the info is that someone sent me, but there is a place in Florida that they referred me to. When I find the info I'll send it over.

    Gulf coast wheeling options

    Oh okay. Just curious. I'm not far from that area. Never seen such a large area of sand like that. That's pretty cool

    Return of P0344

    You and me both. It seems to me that a specific "blueprint" would be used to continue production of parts like this. It would be interesting to know where the difference lies and just why they failed to maintain the same specs.
