    07 JK Rubi locker problem

    Well, I finally got the "Actuator Bracket" (as Mopar calls it, but it's just the anti rotation tab) in Thursday evening, and got out there and went to work Friday. First, I cleaned the area around the wiring with brake cleaner, and then I got to inspecting it a bit. The larger square piece that...

    07 JK Rubi locker problem

    Actually, the problem is that it WON'T lock. And yeah, it's electronic, and I'm sure that wire's the suspect, I just don't know if it's part of the whole carrier, or if it's replaceable.

    07 JK Rubi locker problem

    Lately my rear locker hasn't been locking, so after checking a few things like relays, plugs, etc...I pulled the diff cover and found a broken wire. I don't know what this piece where the wire goes is called. Can anybody tell me what it is, and if the harness or sensor, whatever it is, is...

    '07 Rubicon rear diff wont lock

    Hi. Recently I put front and rear ARB differential covers on my '07 Rubicon Unlimited. I'm not gonna swear to it, but I THOUGHT that I had used the lockers since I installed the covers, and had no problems, but at any rate, today I went playing around, and when I engaged the lockers, the light...

    AMC V-8 Oil dipstick AND tube problems

    I haven't seen any stainless ones, but then I've sold the old Chief and went with a JK Unlimited Rubicon, so I haven't been looking around as much lately either. I'd say since the original one lasted 23-24 years though, I wouldn't worry too much about it. If anything, hit it with a coats of high...

    New jeep

    Heck, I know some people do, but *I* don't buy a vehicle based on what's it's going to bring in 2 years, or how much it doesn't lose when I drive it off the lot. I'm a "car crazy" person, as Barry McGuire calls it on his show...LOL. I buy what I like, what works good, and what I want...mostly...

    07 JK Rubi EATING oil

    Well, the oil has been changed right on time at the dealership every time I have had it changed. There are NO leaks on it that I can see anywhere, and it doesn't smoke, or not that I can see out the mirror while driving or taking off. I KNOW it doesn't smoke when it's cranked up, I have watched...

    07 JK Rubi EATING oil

    Hi all, my 07 3.8 has 86,000 miles, and I have added FIVE quarts of oil in about 1,200 miles. Have seen posts on other forums, etc...about rings installed wrong, gaps lined up, control ring upside down, etc... Has anyone else had this problem on their JK? I'm out of warranty, but if Chrysler...

    37" tires 4" lift 2007 JK unlimited???

    I personally like lots of wheel travel room, so if people are losing flares with 37's on a 4", I'd stay with 35's, or maybe consider trying a 1" body lift. Also, I'm trashing the AT's on mine and going with muds...I've had too many spots the AT's just wouldn't bite. I'm in a 07 Rubi Unlimited.

    AMC V-8 Oil dipstick AND tube problems

    OK...you're saying your tube is 12 1/4" from the top to the crimp at the block. Hmmm...that kinda has me worried. I'm at work at the moment, so I can't check it, but I'm almost positive mine is longer than that. I don't suppose the year would make a difference, would it? Mines a 75. Anyway, from...

    AMC V-8 Oil dipstick AND tube problems

    OK, thanks, I'll go do some measuring on mine. When you say "tube stop" do you mean the bracket that holds it in place? Mine is attached to one of the valve cover bolts, is that where yours is?

    AMC V-8 Oil dipstick AND tube problems

    Hi, I have an AMC 304, and when I purchased the Cherokee Chief, someone had replaced the factory dipstick with an aftermarket, adjustable one, apparently one of the "Help" items from a local parts store. Anyway, as I was ordering parts for my engine, I ordered a new dipstick tube from BJ's...

    wanting headers for my 75 Cherokee Chief, what models work??

    Hello all. I have a 75 Cherokee Chief with a 304 in it ( I thought it was a 360, but I got the manifolds off yesterday and checked under the mounts), and Summit has a set of full length headers listed for 1980 through 1983 Cherokees and Wagoneers, 304/360/401. I can't find anything specifically...

    75 Cherokee Chief rear window

    Well, I do appreciate the input and tips from both of you, and I guess I'll be crawling over the back seat in the next day or two, seeing what I can get figured out. Thanks again.

    75 Cherokee Chief rear window

    Anybody here know anything about the rear window on an old chief? I cant get mine to roll down more than 2 or 3 inches, then it stops dead in its tracks, and it won't roll up either. I haven't gotten inside the vehicle yet to look and see if there is a removable panel on the inside that I can...

    TFI ignition upgrade

    Well, I would like some feedback here on this if I can get some. I unboxed my HEI "clone" cheap Dragon Fire distributor today and proceeded to check it out, gear hardness, length, cap for brass terminals and flaking electrode, etc...and found out a couple of things. First off, the gear was...
