    Can Wrangler MT be changed without disassembling 2 piece wheel?

    No, there is a bead lock/run flat in the tire, you cannot change it with a machine, you MUST split the rim. Even if the run flat/bead lock was removed there is no "drop center" to allow the tire to be removed, no way around splitting the rim.

    My Dmax EGTs

    It is governed at 3450 under load and 4800 max braking, so at least valve float is not a problem at 4800. I have read several accounts where folks push them to 4500 with no apparent issues, but POWER/VS/RPM really starts to drop off at 3700 or so. I have not worked out the numbers but I have...

    My Dmax EGTs

    I was asked about the EGTs running a 475HP tune on another thread but did not want to hijack that thread so here is my answer. I could easily push them into the 1400s with the 475HP tune, With the 365HP tune and busting a 30-35mph head wind (20-30 is VERY common down here on the Coastal...

    Twin Turbo V12 M998

    With a .8314 5th gear it will be buzzing along, with my .61 6th I am turning about 2250@80MPH, a quick cal. says you should be turning a little over 3000RPM, it should sound real nice!! I ran a 475HP tune and was not able to break anything, but it was just too much fun and it was going to get...

    Twin Turbo V12 M998

    What are the specs on that engine? gear ratios of the trans? not like that V12 would have any issues with RPM ;)

    Serpentine Belt

    Not only not needed, they are notorious for leaking and should have been left off of the later trucks. I actually find it easier to reach in with a wrench and un-thread the original setup than trying to unplug the quick connect.

    Burning out directional flasher module?

    First things first, figure out why your brake lights are not working, then worry about the turn signals, again you are not likely going to fix the problems by swapping parts you need to actually troubleshoot the issues one by one, otherwise you will probably spend allot of money and still have a...

    PETLAS Has anyone tried these tires?

    Sorry, still need to check all the rims first, it is spring in S TX so ranch work takes president, that and my knees are only allowing a few hours a day to work.

    1097R1 with a 200A gen intermiten charging issue

    Figure out what the issue is first, if the only problem is the relay it can easily be replaced, if the EESS box has other problems (IE glow plug control issues) then a replacement manual box is one good alternative, Milcommoguy sells one

    Keyed Switch

    The issue there would be if you forget to turn off the keyed switch the relay/solenoid will drain the batteries, there is a cable to lock the steering wheel that is pretty effective in preventing folks from driving off with your truck.

    Burning out directional flasher module?

    No they are not marked, heck the gov gets sold chicom crap from time to time, they are very good at making the junk look legit, so yes the only way you can be reasonably sure you are buying the real deal is the dealer you buy it from. Study the schematics and troubleshoot each problem to the...

    1097R1 with a 200A gen intermiten charging issue

    When it is not charging turn on the heater fan and see if it is working, if not it is likely the EESS (protection) box not feeding exciter voltage to the alt. There is a relay in the box that does that and they can go bad. It is normal for the alt to delay after starting it is called soft start.

    Burning out directional flasher module?

    The problem to begin with is you are only paying $60 for the turn signal switch, a real one is several hundred dollars. The flasher is sealed but it can be replaced with a 24V civilian one pretty cheaply. But if your brake lights are not working it is likely the turn signal switch, the three...

    Keyed Switch

    The problem is the switch would have to be rated at quite a few amps and to be able to interrupt a 24V circuit, that is the issue with using a keyed switch for the start/run switch to begin with.
