So, Jeep engineers were tasked with making the diesel possible with the highest tow retina possible. If functional hood vents did anything, they would have done them.
One thing the jalopnik article said was, the air had to be funneled/routed through the grill for there to be true cooling of...
If the extra tubing and external cooler are full with oil, additional oil added for the extra capacity, the pressure should remain the same, no?
This is a fantastic idea and someone/company could easily make a plug and play kit.
10 degrees will definitely prevent the derate. It’s like adding...
Get your Speedo corrected for tire size. This also affects the transmission shift points and probably other things.
Drive it a month after you do this.
Then report back. If still terrible, take it to the dealership before doing anything else. Don’t want to void your warranty with a tune, a...
Enjoy the trip! This is the first summer in a long time we won’t be in CO.
PS if you stop in Santa Rosa, take a quick dip at Blue Hole. I did my advanced open water certification there.
I haven’t towed, but no issues so far here in TX, 104+
I watched a video of a guy/YouTuber towing a heavy travel trailer from NC to Ouray, CO with gasser JT.
He had oil temps 240+. Had a range of ~100 miles per tank most of the trip, ouch!
Okay. I browsed Lux’s website. They want $299 for the 8 light set. You get 4 lights that have 20’ leads and 4 lights with 10’ leads.
They want $139 for the 4 light set.
You get 2 lights with 20’ leads and 2 lights with 10’ leads.
Why not buy two sets of the 4-pack for $278 and save $21?
What...
I could see that in the summer when it’s hotter. I believe the engine will pull timing ifmit detects any pinging; or perhaps, if certain heat parameters are met.
The ethanol will keep things as smidge cooler and allow the engine to keep timing at the best/optimal amount?
Just thinking out loud.
Okay, I’m slow, someone help me out.

What do I order? I don’t have anything yet.
I’d want:

I bet they do. AMSOIL is big in racing and most every Motorsport. It gets to be a very very small world.
I’m sure both AMSOIL and FCA sponsorships cross paths.
My $$ is this picks up speed and OP gets the problem resolved quietly.
Over/under is two weeks and a day.
You probably are “sending” it a bit too much. It’s up travel isn’t the greatest. It’s down travel is impressive.
My wife’s grand Cherokee could take speed bumps/humps faster than I. It’s the IFS suspension.
Before I lifted, it would bottom out on any road hump or dip, hard. Required two...
