    Jeep CJ's YJ thread

    I posted them privately on facebook then linked them to RME. I'm fairly computer-stupid so that might not have been the best way to do it.

    Who's an expert on 4L60E's?

    Need some help here. I swapped a drive by wire 5.3 with a 4L60E in to my YJ.... It runs and drives well under half throttle. If you give it much more than that it will hold on to the gear to about 5k RPMs and then you get a very slow, hesitant shift. If you just give it just easy throttle...

    5.3 Swap into YJ...what should I know?

    I had a 4:1 Tera low in my 231 so I kept it but I'm starting to wish I had an Atlas. It's starting to whine and complain and I'm thinking my planetary gears are going out. Anyway.... as MBryson stated.... now's the time if you're going to do one. Hit me up when you get going and I'll get...

    5.3 Swap into YJ...what should I know?

    Oh man. I just finished my swap. Here's my advice. Make sure you grab the computer, harness, both O2 sensors, MAF sensor and gas pedal. Also, keep your temp sensor and oil pressure sensor from the old engine before you chuck it. Read the Novak guide, it it immensely helpful. A few...

    EcoBoost mpg

    I'm a huge fan of the ecoboost. My 2012 never really saw over 16 mpg but put a smile on my face the whole time. Honestly, unless the load was over about 8k lbs I would say it tows as good or better than the Duramax I have now. Only issue I had with it in over 100k miles was plugs and coils...

    Jeep CJ's YJ thread

    Update: It's alive! It's running and driving and I've had it out to Moab for a couple test runs already. The first trip we just hit Hell's Revenge and all went well. Second trip we ran Metal Masher and the Gold Spike/Gold Bar/Poison Spider loop.... wasn't planning on going that far but oh...

    LS Experts tell me what sensor this is?

    I would do that but it is leaking up through the center of the unit so it's not leaking around the threads. It looks like a lot of people tap it for a 1/8 NPT and put their sensor in it. I've already installed my new sensor so I could just tap it and put a plug in it and see if that works.

    LS Experts tell me what sensor this is?

    Ahhhhhh......That would make sense why it's not in use.

    LS Experts tell me what sensor this is?
