Could go with Premier Power Welder. Their alternators are Hot rated. Most alternators are cold rated. As Alternators heat up their power output goes down. Meaning Premier Power Welder alternators are very powerful. Have a Premier on my YJ...
Search out of town. Plan on flying to non rust belt states. Drive the vehicle back. I don't bother even looking at Michigan, New York, New England, etc states. I live near Seattle. Zero undercarriage rust on all my vehicles.
Check a wiring diagram. What do the circuits have in common?
Also try wiggling every wire while at idle. What changes? If this was an old Straight 6 4l it would likely be the Crank Position Sensor.
Its the EV part that's the problem. Have rented a few JL 4xe. Works great. How long will Samsung continue to make the hybrid battery? Some units have a fire problem when plugged in. Catching my house on fire negates any savings. Supposedly they have a 10yr hybrid battery warranty. The early...
Jeep could use better seats. Jeep could also increase reliability. Competition is good. Hopefully Jeep avoids the problems I've read about with the newer Ram 1/2 tons with Hurricane engine. Electrical problems seem to be bad.
Flew to the next state over for my Dodge Cummins. Saved at least $15k. Traffic dictated the speed variance. I like to do an oil change at first 1k miles to make sure any leftover material is flushed .
If the Jeep is rated for 3500 and its loaded at 3200, sounds like you are beyond the limits of the vehicle. The 3500 is for stock empty vehicle. Have you added bigger tires, armor, bumpers, winch? Also include weight of the driver, passenger, fuel, food, clothes and anything else.
There is a company that makes TJ frame repair kits. Saw it on a mechanic youtube video. I have a YJ. Enjoy the smaller size for the trail. However, the JL is beyond superior on the road.
If the TJ is a 6 cylinder get an estimate for frame repair. If 4 cylinder, set a budget and wants versus...
$8500 all in for engine replacement? Or $8500 plus labor for engine replacement? If $8500 all in and the Jeep is setup to your liking sounds like a possibility. Different used vehicle will have its own issues.
The rental 4xe's I've driven have been great. Considered buying one until they were discontinued. Noticed prices are lower now on 4xe. I usually hold onto vehicles for the long term. Fire danger during plug in alert is enough for me to avoid. Per earlier post, the 8yr warranty on 2021 models...
Anyone know if its possible to remove the 4xe battery. Jeep would become a 4cyl turbo vehicle. With 4xe discontinued. Prices on 4xe locally are lower than non 4xe rigs. The battery cell at some point will be unobtainable. Many 4xe will deemed non repairable due to no spare battey. Wonder if...
The YJ received a brake upgrade late in life. TJ received the ignition updates for last two years. JK interior and brake updates in 2011 despite drive train updates in 2012. This could be a rolling update to the next generation.
We did simple bulb replacement from halogen to led. Plug and play. No computer update. No relays or adapters. Much brighter than stock. With led replacement bulb, be sure the lights are pointed at 3 and 9 o'clock. Also replaced the fogs. Fog lights take a few minutes on Sport bumper.
Swapped our 21' JL headlight and fog bulbs. Might have used Auxito for the JL Fogs? Did a similar bulb conversion on our 4runners too. The Toyota bulb conversion for low beam and fog was much easier.
