I have 67K miles on my manual tranny JTR. I had some issues with an on and off check engine light - EGR error, Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P0401 stands for “Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Flow Insufficient Detected. I would run some injection system cleaner, reset the code, and it would...
lol., I have had that squeak since new... Now at 65K miles. Playing with the emergency brake usually makes it go away. I think it is coming from the drivers side rear.... I made a bunch of posts about it through the years....
Note: The most important thing is to get an air compressor and let air out of your tires when you 4wheel. 16 psi is safe for stock tires. With my 37" tires on 17" rims, I run 12-13 psi normally.
Also, it depends where you 4wheel, but, it is better to be in 4Low then bogging down in 4High...

I believe they have other ones for different winches. This one is for Warn.

Question - For the Clutch Recall, On my 2020 JTR, I have an engine/tranny/transfer case steel skid plate. Do I have to take it off at home first to avoid a skid plate labor charge from the dealership for the Clutch recall work ? Thanks in advance for any info.
Note: I enabled the hood alarm with my Tazer. It works. However, after many dirt miles, the hood plungers got clogged and stayed closed.... then, I notice the hood alarm not working... So, I replaced my plungers, however, if this happens to you, maybe you can clean them out.
just get a Tazer. It is double the money, but, worth every penny -- and you can do so much customization with it, that you will never regret it. In my opinion, it is one of the best upgrades for the money available.
Re-gearing will help you with acceleration. You will feel a difference going up the on-ramps. I also have a JTR, and I went to 5:13s, but, I run 37" tires. If you plan to stay with 34.5" tires, 4:88s should be enough for towing. If you plan to go bigger tires and still tow, you might want...
I have been running Clayton 3.5 inch kit and Falcon SP2 3.3 for 46K miles with a winch up front. A few points to help you with your decision based on my experience.
1. The Falcon shocks have been bullet proof. No issues whatsoever.
2. The Falcon shocks are still behaving like they did...
With the armor being so heavy, I just fabricate some scaffolding with floor jack stands, gorrilla tape and 2x4s. You can slide them off by yourself and work on them by yourself, test them with your electrical hookup close by, then, slide them back on by yourself.
Pressure Washers Direct has "truck mounted pressure washers with tanks" - hot or cold on a steel platform, but, it seems they all require a 6 foot bed or 6.6 foot bed. You could add a bed extender, like used for motorcycles and keep your tailgate down, and also buy an engine picker from harbor...
I can see why you say that with your torque converter, but, I do not have one... I should have mentioned that... My bad.. lol.
I have a stick shift (manual) JTR, so, I was crawling in tractor mode, 1st gear 4low, with the clutch out, and feathering the brake when needed. I used 2nd and...
Where I live (So Cal) and the moutainous, rocky, boulder trails here, Lockers are indispensible. Otherwise, you are always "sending it" to get over the big boulders, and I hate the lack of control with that approach. Articulation, disconnecting the front sway bar is also key... I also really...
Yes, check the Caster. I am running 6.5 - 6.8 deg. of caster and it is a great ride. Note: I have an Adams front drive shaft.
Also, it Might be too much toe in. Try going to zero toe in. Here is an easy way to measure with 2 straight 4x4s, 2 straps, 2 jack stands, level, & tape measure...
