    Been chasing a CEL for a few months. Did all the usual tune-up items, replaced the thermostat and the engine coolant temperature sending unit. Still had CEL. Ordered a new MAF...replaced...still had CEL. Ordered new, factory O2 sensors, replaced and have had the CEL off for almost 100...

    After addressing the front axle grease issue (I hope it was only the clogged breather assembly?), we installed spidertrax 1 1/4" spacers, front and rear O2 sensors (factory Denso units), new MAF sensor (I used the factory P/N when I ordered off Amazon; however, I am 100% certain it's a Chinese...

    Got a little time this afternoon to tackle the transfer case shifter. As of this point, I had not been able to shift the transfer case into N(eutral) nor L(ow). Got underneath and sprayed PB Blaster all over the joint and the transfer case lever areas. I then went from the top by removing all...

    Also, went to Missouri to grab a LX rear hatch that had no rust, well a little around the nut-serts for the wind deflector, which I wire brushed, sanded, brushed and painted and swapped with the original. Reinstalled the wind deflector and third brake light, which now also works (did the diode...

    So, got all the lights in the dash working, including the 'D' for drive. Took two times of removing the actual cluster. The stereo is a lost cause for lights as the best I can guess after disassembling is the LED lights are soldiered to the circuit board, not going take the chance of screwing...

    I took off PO’s leather cover. Factory one stayed on as I felt the new cover wouldn’t be tight enough? Seems to be about right?!

    One more item to add the the “to do” list.. Dash lights (stereo and shifter) are out. While not a huge priority, it will need to be addressed. Is there a central bulb/fuse/relay?

    Appreciate the explanation! I bought the KBS package (wash, neutralizer and sealer) I also used the rustoleum rust converter on the front of the frame before I mounted ARB Bull Bar, seems to work pretty good, but I also brushed pretty heavily. I bought a used set of CO panhard bars (F/R) and...
