I just checked the modern muscle performance website on that throttle body is $359.00, if so return it and get this part # 53032837ab. It's a mopar part number for a dodge viper throttle body. It will bolt on and plug in with no check engine light. It's a 72mm bore and you will feel and see the performance. By the way I payed 149.00 new

Was planning on ordering a new winch and then this happened today... went to close the garage door and $415 later I have a new spring mechanism, new rollers, and a tune up. I'll have to wait for that new winch now, but damn my garage door sure runs nice!

I just got the Jeep rust treated at Ziebart. It cost $400 after coupon. Since I have a lifetime warranty, I don't want it rusting out from under me. They under coated and drilled the body in the door jams to apply the rust treatment. Around here in Chicago, it seems like most Jeeps I see that are >10 years old are rusting. Ziebart will touch up every year for $40.
Next project will be tub line-x. I'm very nervous about stripping out the entire interior though...

Have an 09 jku Sahara. Burned oil....blew the engine at about 60k miles. Jeep replaced ad fully covered the long block replacement. Had a 100 dollar deductible. Now I haven had any problems yet bu noticed yesterday stepped on gas and kinda puttered for a sec and then caught an went.
I had a hell of a week. Long story short the 3.8 L's are prone to burning oil. I blew a motor just under 60 K miles and had a short block rebuilt at the end of 2011. Currently I have 78K miles, Since then I have had to replace my spark plugs 4 times as cylinder 3 keeps cracking my plugs. Every shop/dealer I've taken it to has no idea what is going on. I just wanted to post something to see if anyone else has had the same problem? Right now I'm replacing the coil pack, new plugs, new wiring and hoping for the best this is now the 2nd time I'm doing this in the past 8 months. Any suggestions? thanks.
