LoL. It was well time and well worth it. I've made some bad mistakes in my life, but she was a doozy. Better times since then and I still have the car. All is right with the world.

Just for shits and giggles, I thought I would give one last update on this thread. I got rid of her. The wife, not the car. :happythumbs: :head3:

I just use the scissor jack that comes with the car to lift it high enough to get my Craftsman floor jack under. I took the rod off that you use to turn the threaded bolt and use a 3/4" socket on my impact to raise/lower the scissor jack. Takes all of 5 seconds to get it high enough to slide...

If you guys are close to one, Cabinets to Go is pretty awesome. We saved thousands on our kitchen cabinets and they are beautiful. We had gotten a quote to reface our cabinets from Home Depot. They came back with 18k! I bought all new Cherry cabinets from C2G and paid less than a third of...

Thanks. Now...the wife wants me to sell her...... haha. I am not sure I have it in me to get rid of her. The car I mean. lol

Well, to bring this to the top, here is an update. I just picked the car up from TSS this morning. Daniel and the guys got her fixed up and she runs great now. After all my hair pulling and troubleshooting mechanical issues, the problem ended up being in the tune. Throttle bottle was closing...

I have to agree with Marc. If those switches are aluminum then they have to be some sort of aluminum skinned plastic crap switches. Just lightly flicking the switch felt like it was going to break. AutoNation in Katy had one yesterday when I took the car and the F150 in for service. I...

Badass man! Those guys built it right and I am glad it went to a person that was going to use it for what its worth.

both are CJ throttle bodies, but only the mechanical linkage one is listed as "available" on Ford's site. I wonder if that will be/has been changed in a newer version of the rules.

Thanks for the feedback.

Let us know what you find. I have a similar problem. I can not figure out how the two are connected either. Prints definitely don't show them being on common power. My issue is that something is wrong with the wipers, and if I forget and try and turn them on, it blows a fuse in the SJB and I...

Shoot, thats only a couple hours man. Fill up there, put an emergency 5 gallon can in the trunk. That ought to make it to the Kroger on Fry Rd off I-10. They have E85 there. From there, you ought to have more than a few options around town.

Keep the 26" IMO. As you said, going to the taller tire will drop your final RPM. Not by much, a few hundred probably but you are already well below your redline. Going from 3.31s to 3.73s on the same 28" tire only netted me about 250rpm at the finish line, if I remember correctly (may have...

Congrats. Love my '14 too.
