Summer of 2018, my 2012 JKU’s automatic transmission oil pan was leaking. I thought getting a fluid pan with a drain plug was the way to go, to make future servicing easier. I bought the Dorman 265-866 for the W5A580 5 speed automatic transmission. About 4 years later, it started to leak through the corroding pan. When we bought a second JKU in 2019, that one had what looks like a galvanized st...

Turns out the supplied bolt was too long, bottomed out and snapped while being tightened. Here’s a few attempts to figure out how to weld to the broken bolt and remove it from the aluminum bracket.

Our Jeep Wrangler JKU had intermittent horn, steering audio controls, EVIC controls and steering lighting. The cruise worked, even if the lighting didn’t. Found info on the X68 Bulletin Clockspring Replacement which applies to 2011-2016 Jeep Wranglers. We took it in to the dealership and our Jeep was covered by this 15 year extended warranty.

This video includes a recap of how the spider gears were damaged, and the subsequent shake down runs. Chucky 3.0 includes upgraded TJ Rubicon axles, and a bunch of other goodies. We get to learn about someone's definition of "taking it easy". For more info on how Chucky blew some spider gears, check out this video: ua-cam.com/video/c7ki6flp9W4/v-deo.html Team 4.0 included a Jeep Cherokee XJ, Je...

OF4WD has a yearly event known as CampNL (Northern Lights). This is a great yearly event (Friday to Sunday) with camping at Kinmount Fair Grounds, and organized runs in the Minden area. The Ottawa Jeep Club had multiple people and Jeeps at the event, participating in different trail runs (mild to wild) over three days. This is a mash up of footage from The Rock, Scotch Line and Anson South, wit...

Ottawa Jeep Club were out on Quinn Loop, catching up with old friends and doing some tree clean up. We decided to ply at Hard Top Hill, and things didn’t end as planned. There was a heavily modified Jeep Cherokee XJ, a stockish Jeep Cherokee XJ, Jeep TJ, Jeep JL, and multiple Rubicons (TJ, JKU, JL). Chucky (Jeep TJ) blew a spider gear and mangled the other three after attempting the climb. Upda...

Here’s two outings merged into one with a Jeep Cherokee XJ, Jeep TJ Rubicon, Jeep CJ7 and a JLUR and another TJ joining in the second run. The second half of Quinn Loop hadn’t been run in almost 2 years, so more fallen tree clearing was needed and lots of overgrowth on some of the fun climbs. The Quinn Loop is a great trail for those looking for a more challenging terrain than Quinn trail.

Four generations of Jeeps were out on the trail (Jeep CJ7, Jeep YJ, Jeep TJ Rubicon and Jeep JK Rubicon), to do a shakedown run of the green YJ with CJ front clip. A few items added to the "to do" list to get it fully operational, and the other rigs learned a few things along the way. Most important, don't pivot your Jeep on the driveshaft.

Over a week, we went out 3 times with different groups of friends. The ridiculous TJ Rubicon had fun everywhere it went. The Wrangler JKU smoked tires going up a tricky climb and got caught on some hidden logs. The Cherokee XJ was having fun in the mud. It got out, so that’s what counts!

Depending on your tires and fenders, you may end up with lots of mud getting thrown on the windows. We will start bringing along a 7.6L (2 gallon) pressurized sprayer to speed up the window clean up before leaving the trails. Will help get most of the mud & sand off so we can see out the windows.

Our 2003 Jeep TJ originally came with the upgraded 7 speaker stereo with center console mounted 6-3/4” subwoofer. Our TJ’s subwoofer and enclosure was removed, so simply replacing the woofer was not an option. In this video, I show how I installed a Pioneer TS-WX130DA 160-Watt Class D self-powered subwoofer into the armrest. It pairs really well with the Polk Audio DB522 and DB652 speakers. 00:...
