    Would this work on a TJ wrangler? it has an issue with rough shifting, 1st to 2nd, and if you unplug it for the night it fixes it temporarily. I have done some digging and everyone else with the same problem says it IS NOT the PCM, but possibly the "transmission range sensor" which ive been told is the same thing as a neutral safety switch?????

  • @machinesinc
    @machinesinc3 күн бұрын

    I’ll be honest, I’m not sure what is causing your issue. The NSS is simply letting your vehicle know what gear you have selected, so this should not affect the shifting performance of the transmission itself. But also keep in mind that XJs have different transmissions than TJs

    Hey the Amazon bumper as an awesome first welding project. Just prep all your surfaces, don’t weld too much at once, and weld a good portion of it while bolted to the vehicle to avoid warping. Adding frame tie ins is HIGHLY recommended, weld them directly to the bumper if you can.

    I used Rustolium brush on hammered paint. It takes forever to brush on, and forever to dry. But once it’s dry it’s an incredibly hard and durable coating.

    I was removing rear shackle mounts for a no lift shackle mount relocation kit the other day. I had the three angle grinders, Sawzall, electric metal shears... I was able to nip it all off to a certain point, I was fed up at this point as I had spent about 20 min trying to figure out how to get the last bit out. Well, I pulled out my oscillating tool with a metal bit and surprisingly it cut pretty good. I was expecting it to flop. Anyways, that probably would have worked on that booger weld.
