    2006 Rubicon 4.0: Codes P0171 and P0174

    That was your helpful advice? I've received lots of helpful advice from the 2004-2006 computer issues, and vibration issues due to lifts, on this site, but your's I wouldn't rate up there as much.

    2006 Rubicon 4.0: Codes P0171 and P0174

    I’m piggybacking on this thread instead of starting a new one. I have a 2005 Wrangler unlimited and very occasionally I would get a sputtering start after driving, shutting it off, going into a store and coming out within a few minutes. But it always corrected then ran properly. Normally it...

    Rear driveshaft vibrations improve with pinion 1 degree above the driveshaft angle

    Thanks. I'm still coming to terms with the vibration issues and why the Jeep Shop I used (Blackstone, Santa Clarita) which is highly recommended, wasn't able to solve the problem when the adjustable control arms (lower) were installed. In 3 attempts it went from vibrating at 5 MPH, to bad at...

    Rear driveshaft vibrations improve with pinion 1 degree above the driveshaft angle

    Thanks. So I'm guessing that instead of being just able to adjust to just half a turn one a single adjustable, that you can fine tune it down to a quarter turn with the double adjustable. Sorry. I didn't want it to be a math question. With that much adjustability a person should be able to...

    Rear driveshaft vibrations improve with pinion 1 degree above the driveshaft angle

    Pardon my ignorance but what is a double adjustable control arm. Is it both upper and lower rear or is it a loweradjustable with two adjustment points. When I raised my 2005 LJ to about 3 inches I started to get a lot of vibration and after putting on adjustable ones on the back lower, it was...

    Post pictures of your khaki / tan TJ

    LJ I bought it new in 2005. It's had a number of "looks" through the years probably due to boredom. 2 inch lift with 33 inch tires.

    Springs, and what's the consensus on "sagging"

    I want to thank everyone for their replies. I did buy the Old Man Emu 2933 and 2942 springs and they did the trick. Lifted it back up about and 1.25 inches.

    Springs, and what's the consensus on "sagging"

    I've heard people say that, but after 18 years with the same setup I've only recently had a bit of rubbing when hitting a dip in the road. The pocket flares have been on for 6 years at least. And this only happens when I have two bikes on the trailer hitch mounted bike rack. Some of this...

    Springs, and what's the consensus on "sagging"

    Thanks. What do you mean uprated rear springs?

    Springs, and what's the consensus on "sagging"

    Thanks for the reply. As I said, I only drive it on the street or freeway. It is an LJ. There is no winch, just the tube bumpers front and back. Rarely passengers, and nothing in the back. I have only the hardtop. So the question is, do you think the 933/941 is the best ride combo and if I went...

    Springs, and what's the consensus on "sagging"

    Thanks for the reply. This is the ad for the lift.....https://www.rocky-road.com/wrangler-lift-kit-budget.html As far as I can remember it just used the stock springs and shock extensions. I've since replaced the shocks a couple of times. Basically I'd like to get it up maybe another inch or...

    Springs, and what's the consensus on "sagging"

    I have a gently driven 2005 LJ that I bought new and within a week of buying it I put in a rather inexpensive Rocky Road Outfitters 2" budget lift kit which was basically just a 2 inch coil spacer. The stock springs were used, and I then put on 33 inch tires which lifted the Jeep about 3 inches...

    LIMP mode issue and P700 and P1776 codes after turning overdrive on

    I just wanted to check in on this thread that I was involved in and couldn't seem to find a solution to the problem. About a year ago I got the transmission shop that I'd been using to put in a transmission cooler and after all the issues I'd had, the problems went away. And have now for a year...

    LIMP mode issue and P700 and P1776 codes after turning overdrive on

    Thanks for your insight. Wiring/electrical has always been a freak out for me. I may just have a guy do what you suggest. As I said there is no obvious wear on the wrapping but that doesn't always mean much.

    LIMP mode issue and P700 and P1776 codes after turning overdrive on

    I believe the PCM did fix a couple of engine codes that happened and the hard shift from first to second, but the limp mode stuff it doesn't seem to have cured. The transmission place did "remove and replace the solenoid pack and remove and replace the valve body" from their invoice which was...

    LIMP mode issue and P700 and P1776 codes after turning overdrive on

    Thanks. I guessing you're talking about the wrapped wires running from the TCM/PCM down along the firewall. How does a person test these for a short without physically taking the wrapping off and inspecting them? Part of the reason I never believed that a short was the problem was how all this...

    LIMP mode issue and P700 and P1776 codes after turning overdrive on

    Forget about it. We've had a number of email, text and phone conversations discussing this annoying issue that won't seem to go away and you're always helpful. And you have suggested wiring in the past, in fact the very first conversation. The problem with wiring is looking at a pristine...

    LIMP mode issue and P700 and P1776 codes after turning overdrive on

    That sounded a bit aggressive. As you know from previous conversations that your new PCM did seem to cure the hard shifting and I stopped getting bizarre engine codes, so getting a refund has never been a concern. The battery voltage is sort of confusing to me as a problem as I have no 'battery...
