Watched that and the only thing that bothered me about it was pulling on the ball of the hitch. Those things have pulled out and killed people, very dangerous thing to do.
You can pull off the vacuum line from it and see if it pulses. If it’s clicking and opening and closing then it’s working. Might save ya $50 lol
Or a 1 1/4" body lift.
This stuff just showed up. Now to swap in the new radio and try to figure out how i am going to get 6x9s or 6.5s into the door. The pods make it look a lot less possible but we shall see. On the bright side my toyhauler is getting the jeep handme down bt radio. Next week i should have the 2nd underseat sub.

Mine was a bad coil,try changing it
I installed my cam bearings today. The FSM says very little about them and even though they show you how to rebuild an automatic transmission they pretty much say leave the cam bearings to the professionals unless you have proper equipment. That’s a crazy statement considering anything you do on these jeeps requires specific or specialized tools. Needless to say I was a little nervous going in but I had no issues whatsoever. I guess if you have a cam bearing tool it’s just as simple as lining up the oil hole and smacking it in straight. I put a coat of Red Line assembly lube on them for now. I also measured the ring gaps for the compression rings in each cylinder. Everything seems to be in spec so tomorrow I might start busting the old pistons off the rods to make way for the new pistons.

You’ll like that sub. I have the same one under my driver side seat. It really gives the sound some real depth
Thanks…. I love it here in NZ
The one that snapped and killed a man recently garnered national attention.
There was a metal hooked strap that went through a back hardtop back window, the passenger seat and front window once.
Deadly.
How far south are you headed? We really enjoyed our NZ trip several years back (2017). We Drove from Auckland to Dunedin. Some fun stuff along the way:
Tongariro National Park (”the hike to Mordor”)
