Without being familiar with your exact setup and what codes are actually being thrown by the module, it's kind of a shot in the dark. But any time the system is opened for any reason, it should be bled thoroughly. Especially on abs equipped vehicles. Air will slowly rise on it's own through the...

It seems low only because your tires are overkill. 18psi should be fine. 6 ply tires with a combined 1200lbs won't flinch. You can bump it up to 20 if you like but you may feel it wander a bit. The sidewall won't flex enough with that load to cause an overheating condition and running down...

Weight is the biggest factor in my book. As the weight of the vehicle goes up, the amount of power needed to move it from a stop begins to rival the amount of power that can be transferred by the tires to the traction surface. Example: My old 2wd ranger could get in and out of places that my...

The issue is going to be finding the right buyer. Sure it may be worth a small fortune to someone, but how hard are you willing to work to get that asking price? And for how long?

If you've got money burning a hole in your pocket and the time, sure. You do you, any way you gotta scratch the itch. For someone with limited time and budget, I wouldn't say its advisable. Cherokees are a dime a dozen and its exponentially cheaper to fix what you got or swap your suspension...

Full month without a reply. Ouch. Better late than never, I suppose. There are a lot of different systems out there. Each one with their own flavor. For slide lock style systems similar to Toyota/Nissan look up O-Track or L-Track. E-trailer carries a few brands all meant for cargo management...

I asked about the brand specifically for this reason. In the past, I've had customers upset we didn't use OE branded parts. But most manufacturers outsource their part production right from the start. Aisin, Delphi, Denso, and Bosch are all OE depending on the rig. I'm glad they were able to...

If I may ask, if it's not an OEM tstat, what brand is it?

While I don't have personal experience with Icon, many coilover companies use special high temperature seals. They're specifically designed to withstand the extreme heat and cycling frequency that comes with competition and heavy use (think baja). Most vehicles, however, never see this type of...

I can attest that aftermarket starter bolts for GM's are trash. Hopefully it didn't trash the flexplate.

No shade, but theres no one size fits all approach to lifts. Especially on something like a TJ. You'd be best served spending a couple hours (or more) looking through vehicle build threads. Find a look you like and adjust to fit your needs and budget. Lots of good write-ups and photos here and...

Agreed. Cable glands are the cleanest and safest install. You can use firewall grommets for floors and protected areas (like firewall pass through) to protect against splashes, but anything located where water can settle or wick down wires should be run through a gland

Higher pressure cap should have no negative effect.

Don't trust your gauge for minor temperature fluctuations. Additionally, the ECM will only throw codes for temp if A) The engine doesn't warm up fast enough or B) The ECT sensor reaches it's designed voltage range limit (normally about 250 degrees). While cheap caps with weak springs, hard...

I dislike airbags, personally. Many people swear by them so it tends to come down to preference. I chose to swap my stock 2+1 leaf packs for 2500HD 4+1 replacements. It adds an inch or so in a maintenance free package while resisting sag more effectively. Originally kept my factory block...

Makes no difference. Buy whichever you like. One is better quality and warranty which will be less likely to fail. The other is easier to come by and more affordable if you do need to replace it in a pinch. I'd personally save my money for an Odyssey when you go to duals. (You really should go...

There are charge controllers designed for both positive and negative ground. Be sure to confirm that you have a negative ground unit, and you should be fine. To my knowledge, there is no real advantage to running a dedicated line to the B- unless finding a good chassis connection is an issue...

The nature of Timbrens pretty much allows for a fixed load height (they only compress so much) Depending on the install specifics for your suspension design, it should be possible to shim/space them higher/lower. If you want to level the front, the rear will still squat that fixed amount (most...

There are so many bumper designs out there that youd be best served communicating directly with each manufacturer. Something to consider though, is that many aftermarket bumpers have a brush/grill guard as an optional add-on. If you don't have the resources or time/want-to to build some custom...

Another note: Some of those suburbans came with magna-ride/air-ride suspension. They ride super nice. Until it comes time to replace them, that is. The shocks are super spendy and many people convert them back to standard suspension after a failure. So keep a look out and factor that into your...
