Juck Feep


a 3mph collision set off the airbags?

No. That's just what the girl said. 3mph won't do that damage to anything. Even a motorcycle could take a 3mph hit with next to no damage. That chick is lying her ass off.
 
buying a compass does help on directions ,but it wont help her look both ways:icon_rofl::icon_rofl:

Mybe so I didn't belive her when she said the jeep was totaled either but I've saw the papar work. As for the accident unless she runs a V12 with NOS she only drove 12 feet out of the ally before she got hit so maybe the civic was going moc 10 from it's driveway which was 50 some feet away. but think about it if she was going 3-5 mph the civic was going say 5-10 mph that would be 8-15 mph on impact. That will set the airbag off and total the jeep, you forgot to add the speed of the other car.
 
How many friends u have man? u have friends everywhere!!

Haaa, haaaa!! Yea....I've been a live for ever, Bro!!!! When you grow up in a military family that has been all over the world and then you serve and live all over the world...you got friends!!!!
 
So pennies blocking the drain is a common issue on these vehicles? Ask your buddies if there is a recall for that like there was for the drain dripping into the trans and flooding it on the 3.7Ls.

And no, I'm not sure that is the ONLY way to do it. If I'd known it was a hard obstruction and not a mouse nest I'd have taken the dash out instead.

No, not the pennies...that is a human stupid issue!!! There have been recalls for the automatic trans control module for several Mopar vehicles. They said they did not see a recall for the problem you mentioned about the drain dripping into the trans. But is only a handful of customer have an issues you think they will do a recall on it? I doubt it. Hopefully you fixed that customers Jeep!!!!
 
The penny might have fell down the defroster vent.

sorry, i don't agree... 3mph crash into a brick wall would be the same as a 3mph crash into a vehicle travelling 3mph... still only a 3mph crash... see mythbusters episode for further details



unrelated note: i want a corn dog... it's almost stampede season!
 
What about replacing a head on a 1999 5.4 F150 in which removing the cab is the best way to do it.:shok:

if you take most full size trucks in for any significant engine work, they will remove the cab...

walked into the shop at the ford dealership i used to work at, when my buddy started (i was a lot boy YEARS ago, buddy got a job there like 2 years ago) and in the shop there were atleast 3-5 full size cabs in the air above the frames, and people crowding around the engines
 
Ok, the Feep jucked me back today. Got the penny out, then I found a quarter. That will require removal an disassembly of the air box.:annoyed::annoyed:

Then as I was putting the trans back in the bell caught and slipped free before I even noticed (pneumatic trans jack). I noticed it when it let loose and caught my fingers between the t-case output flange and the gas tank.

This wasn't one of the "F-me" and done ones either. I was laughing it up for about 10 minutes while trying to get the bleeding to stop. Then the adrenaline wore off and it hurt. A lot. Got a little dizzy too.

So then... I got to waste a large chunk of my day at the local ER making sure I didn't do anything super serious. Got my hand's picture taken by a pretty girl. Got some stitches from a kinda creepy guy.

Got dang my hand hurts.

What should I have for dinner?

:icon_confused: Really don't know what to say. But really, was it necessary to actually remove the transmission? If it was me, I would have found a work around before having to remove such major components.

Hope your hand heals alright.
 
Dude, I would have loved to find another way to do it.

This drain is literally right on top of the trans. If I had known then what I know now, I would have taken the dash and air box out instead.

It really is a piss poor design, and from what I've gathered by talking to guys I work with who used to work for MOPAR, piss poor designs are par for the course there.
