JEEP is at the Dr.

Getting new rear springs installed and a new RMS, she started dripping a little at about 140k. I ran max life in it since 70k, I guess it may have helped but no telling.

Hopefully they'll pull the plug.

That's not nice.

I need valve cover and RMS.

I thought the same thing. All the drips stopped after I did the valve cover gasket.

You paid the dealership to put new rear springs on that? That probably cost you more than the thing is worth.

My god, those wheels and tires.

I'm getting mine back tonight from the Dr. Wouldn't pass inspection and I didn't have the time to work on it myself so I took it in. Needed a new taillight assembly, and to have the e-brake adjusted - all things I could do myself if I had the time to do it.

THAT OUGHTA LAST A GOOD SIX MONTHS

 

[miwico]

My garage is cold, if it was warm I would have done it myself. I got impatient.

I know.

Just go ~10 in reverse and yank the handle up and down a few times until they start working next time.

I don't think the Turdicon brakes work that way. They must be manually adjusted.

All disc and drum parking brakes work that way, but it can get stuck due to corrosion - since the shop is now breaking the adjusters loose do what I said every now and then and they'll keep adjusting themselves.

That is shockingly cheap. I would have expected that price for just the RMS.

Good to know. The parking brake in the LJ hasn't been holding all that great lately.
