I was being a jackass with this comment. The Jeep WJ with the HO 4.7 is arguably the worst Jeep ever made.

I know it says 07, but you would think it would apply to 04 as well?

No. It's not the same engine.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Ok good

Yep. My comment for Dodge is if the engine size ends in 7 it's garbage.

2.7, 3.7, 4.7, and to a somewhat lesser extent 5.7 and 6.7

My neighbor has a 2 year old Ram with the 5.7 Hemi and it sounds like shit I can hear the ticking over his obnoxiously loud exhaust.

Chevy 5.3 has a tick they say is exhaust studs as well. Mine doesn’t have it yet but I’m sure if I keep it then it will.

Called up the local trans place I trust. They do recommend the corvette servo. Said with the past it would cost about 150-200 and take about an hour for them to put in.

Very tempted.

That’s going to be the first of another dozen parts that will need fixing before you are done.

Well what sucks is there are TONS of things I kind of wanna do. Like this.

I could put this thing in the garage and keep doing stuff to it. But the 2/3 shift on these things is lazy as balls.
