Project-JK Eastcoast JK Fest 2008

October 28th, 2008

On October 10, 2008, Eastcoast JK members finally got a chance to show the westcoast what wheeling really is at the Raush Creek Offroad Park in Tremont, PA. Sponsored by 4WD Hardware, the Project-JK's Eastcoast JKFest was the first of it's kind outside of California and without a doubt, it was clearly the biggest ever or anywhere!

Jeep JK Wrangler NSG-370
Manual Transmission Service

October 21st, 2008

As a part of good routine maintenance, it is highly recommended that you service your NSG 370 manual transmission once every 30,000 miles. Changing your Jeep JK Wrangler's transmission fluid will give you an opportunity to inspect the magnetic drain bolt for any signs of abnormal wear going on inside (i.e. large chunks of metal attached to it) and new fluid will help keep things operating smoothly.

Jeep JK Wrangler NV-241 / NV-241OR
Transfer Case Service

October 21st, 2008

As a good part of routine maintenance on your Jeep JK Wrangler, it is highly recommended that you service your NV241 or NV241OR transfer case once every 30,000 miles. Changing out the ATF+4 transfer case fluid will give you an opportunity to inspect it for any signs of abnormal wear going on inside (i.e. bits of metal coming out) and new fluid will help keep things operating smoothly.

This is a very simple task and can be done in minutes with the right tools. Also, any ATF+4 fluid can be used.

Reducing the amount of pressure you have in your tires or, as Jeepers like to call it, "airing down", is one of the easiest things you can do to improve the quality of your ride and significantly improve the amount of traction you'll have on the trail. With your tires sitting at about 8-12 PSI, your tires will do a wonderfull job of smoothing out your ride as you make your way over small rocks and ruts and on bigger obstacles, the tread of your tires will be able to wrap itself around jagged rock faces and boulders. Of course, the more surface area the tread of your tires can make contact with, the more traction you will have. Needless to say, airing down your tires is so effective that it, along with disconnecting your front sway bar links, has become standard practice before hitting the trails.
