How about a CNG/gas engine for the JK? Or is the programming too difficult to justify?

BTW: thanks for taking time to chat with us.

Wheel with a V-8 buggy and tell me you wouldnt want a v-8 sometimes

No, we will not give modification advice.

You can decide what you want to do with your Jeep.

Thank you! Already printed this to take to the dealership tomorrow.

Earlier I asked if you had any follow-up to the questions you asked us during last year's session regarding the hard top headliner (I'm interested) and the factor half doors (link to thread item: http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f144/09-29-q-session-jeep-wrangler-wrangler-unlimited-868049/index9.html#post8016196)

Thanks,

It is very hard to answer this over the net - I would recommend that you have a good mechanic look at it - it could be a multitude of things. I can say there is no common problem known for the condition.

Our time with you is fun..

CNG ? No comments.. lots of implications....

Thanks again for being here and listening to owners. I forgot to say that earlier. This speaks volume of a company to do this.

Is it true that there is a TSB out there for factory axle seals (mostly in the front axle D30's) for those with a 2003-2006 TJ failing before the warranty runs out? I ask cause I've taken my rig off road once in the 32k miles I've had it and the front axle seal is leaking diff fluid around my wheel hubs.

The 1/2 doors are very close to being released. As you can imagne, there is a lot of small parts to the kit, but they are due out very soon. We are looking at the headliner for a dealer item. What features do you want in a headliner?

I heard they are NOT on the clock. That makes it even cooler.

i might have to x2 this. Somehow i got alot of water in my rear diff...i guess the D44 axle seal was bad.
