I once realized a hose had become disconnected. Reconnected it and code went away. Maybe it's something simple like that

Re: Smart Chip?

I've been under the understanding (possibly incorrect) that you can't tune naturally aspirated engines to get much more power or economy. Turbo or supercharged engines are different though.

Re: New from Berkley

Welcome! That sounds like a good plan for the JK! I have the grabber at2s and they do well enough, but are lacking in mud and quickly become slicks. They do well everywhere else though. Protection is a good plan, protect your investment!

One of the nastier trails at F&F :-o
Let me get the skids installed, bigger tires, engine skid, and paid off, then I'll take a look.

Re: Belly up options

I made the purchase! Novak shifter, undercover fab skid and transmission mount, rough country body and motor mount lift. Next up, paint. The skid is coming in bare steel, and if like to coat it in something that'll last. I was thinking POR-15 would do the trick. It applies to bare metal and creates ...

Re: Belly up options

This is the skid in question. (http://undercoverfab.com/transfer-case- ... rance.html) I'll be going with the 1/4" Steel.

Where would these gussets need to go? I don't have a welder or experience with welding.

Belly up options

The next big thing for my little jeep is a (are) skid(s). I've got a gas tank skid, so the transfer case skid (aka mud shovel, belly pan) and engine skids are next. I've decided to go with Belly up options: 1. 1" deep transmission skid, low profile transmission mount, body lift, motor mount lif...

Re: Stablility Control acting up & steering play

No I don't, but tires are tires. Pressures and sidewalls are all the same game. This isn't my first jeep and I've been in the game long enough to know some chit.

Re: Stablility Control acting up & steering play

I've got E rated tires and run 24 psi on the street in my TJ. I'm guessing you'd be around 26 given the increased weight of the JKU. Best thing to do is a chalk test to make sure the tire is conforming to the road properly to provide proper wear.

Re: Stablility Control acting up & steering play

Perhaps the wandering is an alignment issue? If it's toe-d out more then spec, it'll have a wandering feel to it. Toe-d in will "dart" around more.
