    Very Confused... kinda

    The body plate on my TJ has the code DDQ (= AX5 transmission), but as I'm looking at the transmission, it looks like an AX15... no cast iron section. I'm satisfied with the visual conclusion that I do in fact have an AX15, but the thing that befuddles me is why/how a stock TJ w/ 4.0 in it...

    42RLE shifts hard

    I've got a 2004 TJ with a 4.0 & 42RLE. About a month ago I replaced the original 42rle at 125k with a reman unit from Powertrain Solutions. I also added a Derale TJ transmission cooler to keep things cool and bypassed the radiator cooler as per the reman companies request. Most of the time the...

    Savvy skid plate trans mount

    Has anyone lowered their trans with the Savvy tummy tuck skid and cross member? It's the only fix left possible to cure my drive shaft angle for vibes at higher speeds under a load.

    Have not had her long but she just turned 124,500 miles on her, a 2005 Wrangler X. New wheels, tires, soft top, changed All fluids, and now the dang Tranny is going out. Just my luck.. Spent all my money, and cannot find anybody that will rebuild it. New reman tranny is 2100.00 and a new from...

    Manual transmission shifter wobble while stopping

    2.4l 5 speed... When coming to a stop, from maybe 10-0 mph, my shifter wobbles left to right if I'm not in gear. Doesn't matter if I'm braking or not. Its not a violent movement, but just some feedback every half second until im stopped. I'm thinking either driveshaft u joints, or trans/motor...

    I wanted to post a review for those of you in OR and around the Portland area. To make a long story short, last Friday my wife was driving my truck and through no fault of her, burned up the tranny. I was 250 miles away and she was about 100 miles from home. I called the chevy dealership in...

    Aux Trans Cooler Install Question

    I just ordered my trans cooler the other day, and I'm hoping to install this weekend. The problem is I am reading conflicting information on if I should install before entering the stock/radiator cooler, or after. It seems to me like installing it before the stock one wouldn't work because...

    With a recent series of serious overheating incidents while offroading and towing my little pop-up trailer, I decided to hasten my plans to install an auxiliary transmission cooler for my 42RLE automatic transmission. I had added one to my previous TJ that had the more robust 32RH, but Jeep’s...
