Been super busy out here in Oregon as well. Older ya get the less hours in the day it seems....LBR

I would disconnect the plug from the new dimmer switch and, with good light, check the spade terminals in that plug. Chances are that, after 30 years of moisture, there is so much rust/corrosion on the hi beam terminal that it is not making contact on the dimmer switch terminal at all. If you...

I've used spray can lemon Pledge or Favor for years with great results. Then I use it on the inside and outside of the plastic windows, all interior plastics and metals (everything except the windshield), dash, gauges, knobs, seat brackets etc. Cheap. Not oily like Armor-All. Doesn't attract...

Hi JTHM - I noticed that you didn't mention replacement of the lower radiator hose. Anytime that you are at wits end with an overheating problem and have tried everything (EVERYTHING) in the book to correct and are sure all components are functioning properly, replace the possible...

Robo983 - Can't speak for Jackal or BakedAlaskan hangin' here, but I make my rounds occasionally. It blew me away reading this old, old post and seeing my replys to it. Hopefully they will respond 'cause I'm curious as to their outcome as well. If you don't get a reply from them here, check...

Hi TC - I'm assuming that my '06 4.0 Wrangler has the same 6-speed as yours - it has a minor issue from 1st to 2nd as well - generally speaking it feels like the syncro is going bad and "clips" 2nd gear ever so slightly on a normal shift - a little slower shift and it is OK - have 10K on the...

Would have been worst if the front hubs were locked in LBR

double check and verify that the oil pressure is indeed that low....I've been driving a 79 CJ-5 w/ the AMC 360 and it has had 10 PSI when cold to 0 PSI when hot on the factory pressure gauge for over 2 years......LBR

Did you replace the lower radiator hose? LBR

We did, Matt.... cut work a little early Thursday and set up camp @ Discovery Point Resort, then motored around in the sand Thursday PM., all day Friday and Saturday on our 1 quad as a spectator. Looked for you at the XXX trailer when we visited the midway, but you were probably out have a...

I've got the 60CSx and 2 additional software add-ons with a 12 volt plug-in and it rocks!! LBR

I used DAS for a CJ-5 from Georgia to Oregon, doorstep to doorstep, with no problems of any type as well (it was a Mother/Daughter driving team!) LBR

Hi guys - Tuned up my 79 CJ-5 with an unknown year of AMC 360 in it yesterday for the first time - my usual low-buck M.O. includes beadblasted the cap, rotor, plugs. I did replace the plug wires as they were really old and 2 of them failed the ohm-meter test. Got in a hurry and made the rookie...

I agree...can you swap the tires front to back and test drive to isolate the problem?? LBR

Hi redrooster - I have used a primer-surfacer in the past for this type of minor filling. This surfacer is sprayed on with a paint gun exactly like regular primer. What sets it aside from primer is it is a "thick" layer instead of a "thin" layer like primer. Lay on 2-3 layers of this exactly...

Sounds like a hoot, NCjeeper.....but we'll have to pass on this one..........LBR
