Thanks but I don't want to do a gear swap at this time.

25th.
I was towing a friends 26ft boat up the boat ramp at a private boat ramp a few weeks ago and tires started spinning on ramp. Jeep slid sideways and rear tire slid off boat ramp.

I put a straight edfe on it again a few minutes ago and apparently it's not bent. Straight edge I was using earlier apparently wasn't that straight.

Still having driveline issues. I'm taking it to Oliver the week of the 27th to figure it out.

Just cause the axle tube is straight doesn't mean the shaft is...

Warm it up then hook up a mechanical gauge and test your oil pressure. Chances are its you sending unit. But the gauge will tell you for sure

Mine does this cause I've been too lazy to change the ospu

Mine does this.

You know why?

Common problem TJ's and XJ's post 96....the new gauge cluster's pins lose their mating surface...the dead giveaway is the check gauges....

If it is a 97+, you take out the gauge cluster...SLIGHTLY bend the pins, smother them in dielectric grease, and reinstall. Problem gone forever,

Their is a Service Bulletin regarding this...had to do it to mine...year later...no issues.

I'm taking the TJ in Tuesday to have it done. There is a new connector harness.
