Ha ha ha, crazy

Got it for cheap and put it on today. Better than the stock tin can bumper, thats for sure.

i noticed when i practiced seating the torque converter out of the jeep that its not flush with the bell housing fave when fully (3 clunks) seated. If you only have two clunks, the torque converter bolt holes are basically flush with the mating surface of the trans to the engine amd when the...

We found out that our 03 is a january build so we must have earlier lines than the later 03 this trans came from. The output shaft on the trans didnt come out on this new trans, where it came out on ours. And the cooler lines used different fittings on this trans. Last, of course, the exhaust...

And a longer flatt screw driver against the driver side bellhousing and ypu cam put the tip in the flywheel teeth to rotate the engine over and get the 4 bolts holding the torque converter to the flywheel. Ours is done. Jarrod took the jeep for a few test drives and after we changed the fluid...

Oh yeah, the top two bolts on the trans are t11 torx

We got the tcase and trans out this afternoon. Tomorrow the jeep should be driving again

maybe just change the fluid?

We are in the process of dropping our 42rle also. Finally, ha ha ha. I am letting my son do all of it and only help if its a clip or some dumb part, or when its a 2 man job. He is si anxious to be done, he took it around the neighborhood one last time before we started and said he cant wait...

No, put it under the pan. Also, support the engine in case it tries to tilt and pull any wires or put the fan into the radiator

It is heavy, the trans andnthe torque converter. When you reinstall the torque converter, make sure to read up on whether it has to "seat" a click or three. My son and i pulled his auto trans in his bmw and his torque converter had to click twice so it was seated on the pump spines properly...

No idea but i had to buy a replacement for my 42rle. It lost reverse

I dont ever look at the cure time of those things when i get them. I just get the one that says compatible with oil because by the time i finish putting stuff back together, it had some time to dry

Will do. I think the worst part about it will be the weight

Finally gor a low milage replacement transmission for the rhd. 97k miles and the guy said it shifted perfectly. He said he had been through the same trouble with 42rle trans on his lj

Looks like the jeep is back on daily deiver status. My son has returned our mazda3 to our driveway and the new tj is with him. And another positive note is i am going tonorrow to get a replacement transmission for the rhd tj and then it will be back to full use statistus once jarrod and i swap...

I feel like maybe your fuel pump check valve is getting clogged a little bit. Turn the key to run and kisten to the pump. Then turn it off and back to run and ket the pump run till it stops. Do it three or four times and then turn the key to crank the engine. If it starts up easily, your...

Well, found the real problem after pulling the harness and fuse box and checking everything. A pin is pulled from the plug

Dang, got some water in there sometime ago

Ok, swapped the original switch in and it gave no headlights and no cluster lights so that is bot the issue. I checked every relay i could find, even the one under the cluster that seems to be for the tailights. I also checked fuse, both boxes, like the relays, all good. Grounds also are good...
