Ykydaxjw you leave a note in your jeep informing the guys at the shop you bring it to about some of its minor problems to avoid. Mine were
- if it grinds going into first, go into second and then back into first
- don't roll the windows all the way down, they will jump off the track
- red switch on the dash is for the electric fan
And I should've added, no neutral safety switch!

I mostly do my own work, but I'm getting a shop to put my new 4.56 gears in!!

Technically, "jeeping" would be a verb in that sentence.

i feel your pain for the neutral safety switch, ive seen so many people jump in mine and try to start it in gear, sure gives them a good scare!

You dont for a reason.... You will never need to know that in your life, unless your an English teacher/ professor/ major/ or you for some reason love grammar.
