I was getting ready to see if you were in the covid obits - lol - glad you are back
Glad to be Back! Gonna try to upload more regularly 👍👍
Glad to see you back Dan
Thanks Ant!
Funny you post a ZJ video, just a week after I found my old 96 ZJ sitting in the pick a part yard near me :(. Was happy to see it and sad to see it at the same time. When I sold it back in 2010, it had 232k on it, the viscous coupler in the t-case was shot and the driver's and front passenger seats were torn up....They were totally trashed when I saw it last week, and oddly enough the key was sitting in it...I happened to have my jump pack, and just by chance thought hmm, wonder if I could get it to power up enough to read the odometer...it did, and the odometer reading was 561,016 miles...so it ran several more miles after I sold it. Sad to see the end of its life though. I see white 96 ZJ's all the time but mine had an odd front tow bar on it that was very easily noticeable, and an odd switch under the dash I never figured out what it went to...so those 2 things gave away that it was my old Jeep long before I checked the VIN. I miss that Jeep, it spent more time offroad in the mud than it did on the highway, and even at 232k I wasn't afraid to jump in it and drive it across several states...my boss at the time just kept after me about selling it to him...so I did, he didn't have it a year and sold it..the last owner drove 180 miles round trip to and from work pretty much daily with it, used to see it sitting behind the store he worked at all the time....then suddenly it was gone, guess now I know why....windshield had "BAD TRANS" marked on it...well I guess that old 42RE had enough LOL...honestly surprised it didn't fail on me given how I beat on it, and the stuff I towed with it, seemed pretty bulletproof while I owned it...wish I only knew back then how easy transfer case swaps were and how easy it was to replace the seat upholstery, I would have kept that Jeep. 4L I6 never let me down, only a bad starter left it dead in a parking lot...luckily never let me down in the middle of nowhere LOL. The starter and a leaking radiator were the only 2 issues it ever had...regular oil/filter changes, and transmission services every 45k, and diff fluid changes every time I got into deep mud/water with it, transfer case services every time I had the transmission serviced...if I knew about the transfer case swaps I would have went with the 242 Selec-Trac.
Oh and my copy of your 98 ZJ went to the crusher a few months ago...replaced it with a 2008 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer 4.6L V8 4x4. That poor Jeep just had every single electronic/electrical problem that's known to Jeep, as well as the dreaded 42RE problems :(....It had Selec-Trac and the rear limited slip too, when the transmission died I was pretty pissed off as I had put 4700 miles on it in the 3 years I had owned it, and all of them were highway miles and a couple trips on a gravel back road to a small town.
Thinking my next Jeep might be a WJ with Selec-Trac, or an XJ with Selec-Trac. Or...if I can find a Comanche with Selec-Trac...I've only seen 1 that was for sale, I've spotted a couple but they were no longer operational sitting in scrap yards, sadly the bodies on them were in pretty dang good condition given they were 30+ years old.
Thanks for sharing brother! Great story, great info

Thank you sir!
OMG changing from 24-hour to 12 hour on my Vic was so easy I have driven nothing but ZJ's since about 99 I've never had one that wasn't in 24-hour mode drives me crazy it was so easy to change but I would never have known to hold the set button while turning the ignition on absolutely the best information on Jeep Grand Cherokees ever. This year I was able to buy my dream Jeep 98 5.9 limited you are my hero thank you so much.
Thanks Mike! Always wanted a Niner myself.. if you ever need to part with it Ill take it off your hands. lol 😎
just bought one a couple months back myself! love it aside from the mpg and premium gas lol but you already know that
@@sparkie5571 LOL! Congrats!!
He's back!!!
😃
Good to see you back brother...I was starting to wonder about you.👍👍💪💪
Thanks DanO !!
OMG. Thank you. The VIC has been set to 6500 service mileage on my ZJ forever, never really thought about it! THANK YOU DanH!
Lol! I figured it was important info to get out to the ZJ community!
what a pleasure to have you back here Dan - I just wondered where you might have been ... ;-)
Thanks for the great vid again!
I have set my VIC at 7500 mls cos my Zj just has bit more than 82'000 mls since 1993. Got from my beloved father who bought her as new in spring 1994.
Greetings from Switzerland
Thanks for the support! I've been around, working hard and filming, but a new job left me with no free time to edit.
Hey Dan good to see you back. I know you had showed a video of that oil drain plug but could you remind me of where to get one? Thanks bro
hey buddy! reach out to Chris Watson at instagram.com/watson_synthetics/?hl=en
Good to see you, hope everyone is well. I have a very small leak in 2000 wj. I sure hope it's not a crack in the head, or heater core, will be doing a color die, hope to fine it , OMG I've never had such a hard time finding a leak must be very very small. I even changed the reservoir bottle.
man, im chasing a small issue in the zj. i think its a small pin hole in the top of the heater core
@@ProjectDanH results back, pressure test ok checked core also, on wj theres a drain tube where heater core is and that tank was dry so we ruled that out. Found out I was only loosing antifreeze when cooled down and dripped in the exhaust, so when it ran you couldn't tell. Ever so slight. It would just burn away. When its apart I'll try to get some pictures, what we find. So far I do believe head has a small crack.
Hi Dan, OK an update replace head with remanufactured one, replaced all the hoses, thermostat, fluids also. Been over a week and showed antifreeze still at the top. I'll keep checking it for a while. Keeping my fingers crossed... P.S. I need a sticker on back of my jeeps. Lol. How can I buy??
@@davidbhall1042 Awesome Dave! Send me a paypal donation - airvillan2000@aol.com. Remember to include a return address for the stickers.
Thankl you!
Woohooooo welcome back.
Thanks brother!
@@ProjectDanH
Your welcome hopefully you had a good vacation
Yeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeah stay up my boi fist bump from Cali Zj Fo Life 😎👊🙏
🙌💪💪💪
Keep the videos coming
You got it brother!
A common fault I noticed with VICs in mine and the salvage yards is the traces erode away then short out. What I did to fix mine was remove the remains of the traces, then soldiered wires in their places. My first try at soldering and it works great now!
Awesome! It's always a great day when you can fix your Jeep on your own!
Thank you for another great video)
Appreciate your work, greetings from Ukraine!
Thank you very much!
Good to see you again Dan!
Did you ever check out the drivers side rear bump stop for removal/replace? When you have time please! 👍
Hey, no have looked into it yet
Thanks pimp I appreciate the videos.
lol.. i appreciate your views
Greetings from Ukraine. I also have Grand Cherokee ZJ, 4.0 and love it so much. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching! Be safe
Hey hey welcome back Dan hope all is well

Thank you so much!
Glad to see you back Dan👍🏻🇺🇸
Thanks brother!

How bout them wiper blades
If you ever need to be Rob again for the day let me know👍
Dude you're the man! They're on the ZJ and I needed them very much! You came in handy thank you!
Thanks for that, very informative!
Thank you!
One more perfect video about fantastic ZJs
lol, Thanks brother!
zj yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
You love ZJs. Thank me for the content 🤣🤣🤣🤣
start makeing more video
Made em.. just didn't edit and post! Lol
Nice video 👍
Thanks for the visit
my zj only has the over head thing
The VIC was common in the Limited models, the Laredos tended to have the cheap useless thing down there, not exactly sure that it did anything at least the one in my 98 ZJ didn't do anything other than tell me if I was in full time or part time mode for 4WD LOL. I don't think anything on the Jeep outline lit up, at least nothing in mine ever did...but my 98 ZJ also had pretty much every electronic/electrical issue known to Jeeps as well as the normal failing 42RE, and lower engine knock from the 4L I6 weird, but it was terrible.
Yep
Hey Dan great tutorial, quick question, can a vic be installed on a 1998 cherokee sport? maybe a dumb question!!
Sure! you would probably need to wire in a ZJ BCM.. lots of work!
I changed the date on mine but when I hold set it just goes to where I can change am and pm not the time
do you still have the factory radio?
@@ProjectDanH yeah I do
@@natekevleighan5906 If a factory radio is still in the vehicle you set the time with that
I have a 1997 g cherokee limited 5.2 v8…. And i try several times and i can’t do the panel check…
How come?
@@ProjectDanH i dont nknow.... don´t do nothing
On my 97 ZJ i bought a Vic to replace the stick the useless display mofeulr for some reason it didn't work and the Vic is functional ..
does you ZJ have all the factory plugs in place?
@@ProjectDanH apologies for the typos lol but yes I bought a used VIC from ebay two of them as a matter of fact from two different sellers and they don't turn on , the old GDM powers on but flickers.. so I dunno I'm stumped with the VIc..appreciate ur respone BTW
@@killervito have you bench tested it with a power supply? If you know it works then you may have a wiring issue in your Jeep. test for 12v and ground
