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?

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

Lol you’re just imagining things. You know you only hear it while you’re sitting inside your Toyota.

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.

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.
