If you have a cel still on see what code was thrown. If you don’t have a code reader yet you should definitely get one.
@mrblaine any tips on rabiting the aluminum? First attempt on some scrap only made it about a half inch before rendering the bit useless.
Diablo Straight cut 1/2in carbide but
Do you do multiple passes at 1/16 or one pass at 3/16?

Driving to work this morning and the jeep started idling very rough at the stop light and then the cel started flashing.
If I could just have one week where something doesn’t go wrong I would be a happier man.
Went through a period like this on my '04 LJ. Every time I fixed one thing, something else would pop up. I was convinced that the Jeep simply didn't want to reside at my residence. With a little encouragement, and a lot of determination, it was all sorted out and the Jeep is a pleasure to drive now. You'll get there as well!
I remember, there were a good few times I thought you’d sell the Lj instead of the Tj.

Borrowed a skill saw and used it to roughly notch one end, battery ran out before I could finish the other side, so in the meantime I’m gonna finish drilling.




I used a cheap router table plate squared up a straight edge and clamped to the table , 1/4 end mill on my router, applied cutting wax after each pass . View attachment 582739View attachment 582740View attachment 582741

Turned out pretty good , for the first attempt
Basically tried to copy Blaine’s design View attachment 582743
