Is custom fender flare extensions a fancy way of saying you duct taped some plastic to the top of your existing fenders?
Or cardboard?

Great job Ray. I'm a cyclist too and I know how hard it can be at times.

You have a bulb out on the right side of your jeep... easy and cheap fix. Put your blinker on, get out of the car and find the bulb not blinking. Ask your local AutoZone professional consultant which bulb you need.
If you wink, he might put it in for you.

I work for Johnson Controls in Middletown. We make lead acid batteries. There are a number of things that could end a batteries life early, most of them are warranty related issues (broken straps and +/- plates touching are the main ones). If it's not under warranty, you're SOL.
My company owns Optima Batteries. I've been using them for many more years than I've worked here. As far as I'm concerned, they are the best battery on the market. They are in my boat and all my cars. My deep cycle marina batteries are still going strong after 4 years and I've never been stranded in a car or boat because of a battery related homicide.
FYI... You guys are correct, the average battery life is 3 years before the lead plates start breaking down inside the battery. If you store the vehicle in a garage, the battery will probably last longer. If it's outside 24/7, probably shorter. The extreme hot and extreme cold is what makes the acid eat away at the lead plates faster. Remember, when you're wheeling and jarring an older battery around, the plates will disintegrate faster because of the contact with each other.

OK, so I fixed it temporarily. The bushing that holds the cable on the shifter level inside the cabin is crumbs. The dealer said they can't get just the bushing and the MOPAR OEM cable assembly is $126. I've been looking on-line and I can't quite nail down the exact bushing. Is this what I need for a 2010 JKU Sahara??? How do I find out the transfer case model? http://www.quadratec.com/products/52218_0014.htm
As always, THANKS!

Thanks for the advice. I fixed it. I was able to pry the level forward underneath the Jeep and pop it back into 2wd. Funny thing, the shifter level inside the cockpit now has tension again. I'm not going to mess with it now but I will get it looked at this month.
-
I think this is the bushing in question. It's currently in the forward position. My guess is I have to get it compressed as far back as possible to get it in 2wd using the normal procedure of putting the vehicle it in neutral.

Howdy gang, is there anyone in the Dover area that could help me out tomorrow or Monday. The differential shifter cable broke (or I broke the shifter) on my 2010 jku today while in Georgetown. Right now I'm stuck in 4wd low. I was told it can be switched to 2wd manually underneath but I'm challenged when it comes to working on vehicles. Any help would be greatly appreciate. Thankfully it was a nice day to drive home doing 40 mph at 4200 rpms. My cell is four four three - seven four five - eleven eighty nine.
PS: I tip well or can pay in beer.

I went with 17" wheels on my JK because I read the same about 15's not fitting around calipers. I didn't want the hassle of trying to find one that fit.

Congrats BOB! Make sure you get Jeep parts with the engagement party money!

[size=1em]The textbook definition is the person responsible for driving a herd of cattle. Our definition is not much unlike that. On a Jeep ride, the trail boss is your guide. He/she is a veteran wheeler who knows the trails which helps the group stay safe throughout the day and return to the gate safely. They have the experience to help spot you through hazards and they make sure, between all the Jeeps in the group, you guys have the resources to get out of most any situation (ie: winches, tow straps, medical equipment, high lift jack, fire extinguisher, etc...). Before you leave the parking lot, make sure your trail boss is not Stafford, he's been known to leave people on the trail and give bad advice... [/size]
