Pull the plug wires one by one and see if you can isolate the miss at idle. The wire you pull, that doesn't change the idle/miss, is where you need to look.

It's late enough here in Arizona!! I'd pack it in if it were me.

Search Google about BG44K when you get a chance.

I have read the FSM and looked at the following video Axle seal and bearing 2002 Jeep Wrangler TJ DIY - YouTube on the replacement. It seems real simple to do.

My question is the following for anyone who has done this with the track loc. Is there something more I need to worry about in taking out the lock pin and the pinion shaft to get the C clips out. Is it any more complicated than with a open differential
That's a great question. I check my FSM and there is no different procedure. The clutches are buried between the side gears and where the axle enters the carrier, so the steps are otherwise identical.

Is it alright to run fuel injector cleaner through it already? It's only got 1057 miles on it haha.

I know we cover it a lot here, but... oil filters for a '94 4.0L. Between these two, is there a favorite? There's a $10 price difference.
Motorcraft: FL1A
Mobil 1: M1-301

EDIT:
I just found this. Don't know how accurate it is.
The standard filter is rated at 200-250PSI burst.

The M1-301 has a 500PSI burst rating.
You'd notice thicker metal throughout..once you cut it open.

It structurally is basically a racing version of the FL1A

Screw that, get the Motorcraft. It's a pretty good filter for being cellulose. Or pick up a WIX 51452 if you want bombproof.

Are you looking to put the LEDs in your Laredo or Classic?

We've done complete swap from stock to LED of all the lights in two different vehicles now, and they have been able to supply us with every bulb we needed to do it.

Great site, great vehicle-specific application guide, decent prices. I've heard customer service is outstanding, but I've never had a reason to contact them

Yes I've gone into a live chat with them before and had a resolution in maybe 10 min. Great place to buy!8

I checked, either they don't have it listed or their mobile site sucks on my phone.

I looked at them before but I have amazon prime and they have some good deals on there.
