The things I do for this TJ
Picked up this supposedly 130k mile 42RLE for $350 yesterday. Had to drive 2 hours each way for it though. Will be rebuilding this and keep mine as a spare. My research/reading says ATS diesel is a decent choice but still thinking through and talking to people. This is for the winter though.
After talking to local shops and pricing out a replacement valve body and torque converter parts+ labor costs, rebuilding is not that much out and I get warranty. I'm just frustrated that all this is happening with only 65k miles. I really seem to have drawn the short straw with this transmission.
