The programmed tire size won't matter. A change in differential gearing could. The computer only knows what's going from the engine through to the axle hubs (wheel speed sensors). Tire size is about speedometer/odometer accuracy and the mpg calculations. The number you program for tire size is...

I think the Colorado was nearly the same weight as the Gladiator and the others were hundreds of pounds lighter. One thing I always get out of TFL videos is how much time they have to spend pushing buttons and turning knobs to get into some mode or another or to activate/deactivate some feature...

Not wanting to be tracked and bothered by yet another company is not "tin foil hat" territory. We're talking unwanted data collection, not mind control.

I took a stab at opting out of their data collection entirely by disconnecting the two LTE antennas from the Uconnect. I did not get a monthly "Jeep Health Report" in my email this month so maybe it worked. I'll see if I get one next month. I don't use the app.

No, the privacy question is only about whether they can sell your data to others. Actually, if that screenshot is all there was to this "privacy" setting, it didn't actually say they wouldn't sell your data to others, it only said you wouldn't receive any offers from them. It is worded as opting...

Or cut it off, hope really hard for it to rattle really loudly for a really long time and it will almost definitely fall out on its own within a mile. Well, that's how things seem to work anyway.

I need to do a shout out to Bilstein of America, Inc.. I emailed them about how the bushings got crushed and they sent me two new bushings free of charge. They said they are not (yet?) available for sale. I pressed out the old ones and pressed in the new ones and now the shocks are as good as...

I wouldn't wish those on anyone. A spacer lets the entire spring work as intended, those things don't.

You're halfway to the goal. Show us all what the new one looks like on the inside.

Who is going to step up and be the first to disassemble their new pump on camera for YouTube? It should be someone who kept their old pump for a side-by-side comparison. We want to know what is different. The information we all seek is right there under your hood.

Makes sense. Many threads on this problem mention that regearing can cause it to happen if the new gears are not programmed into the computer. Tire size does not matter. This guy's long video mentions briefly what worked for him. And below is a screenshot from the video. This was was...

Two Dudes One Wrench? Those guys should change the name of their podcast. Do they really want to be associated in any way shape or form with "two girls one cup"? And that gets me to thinking about what exactly those two dudes might be doing together with that one wrench? I'm too grossed out to...

Great idea. It makes it a lot quicker to check than getting the torque wrench back out. I use whatever bright paint I have around and apply it with a toothpick. Maybe some day I'll get a pen

I don't see that in the service manual but it does say to use a new nut. I don't know if many people actually do use a new nut. Loctite is often the go-to solution.

That's scary. This basic design has been used for many years on many vehicles but it sure bothers me that there's nothing to keep the nut from backing all the way off and the pitman arm coming off. I'd be much happier if it had something like a keeper washer underneath of the nut where you...

If only it was less obnoxious/loud. I have a car that has the same thing but the sound is more like chime than a honk.

It is shameful that we outsource so much manufacturing to China but my issue with "Chinese" products is not the origin of manufacture, it is the bazillion no-name Chinese companies selling low quality products which are inferior ripoffs of someone else's products made with inferior and/or...

Straight 6 for me please.

I enjoy the discussion.

Okay, I'll state it another way. I bought a vehicle that has some features I did not want. To get all the features I did want, I had to get features I did not want. My choices were 1) not buy anything, 2) buy something else (something that did not have the features I wanted), or 3) buy the...
