Yes, Saturday, August 20th. Meet at 8:30 am at the Bush Hiway overpass on Hiway 87. Drive on to the trailhead (10 miles or so). Air down, lunch on trail, back in the Valley by around 2 or 3 pm. Sounds like 3 or 4 Jeeps so far. Anyone else?

Default Resetting "change oil" warning

Anyone know how to reset the "change oil" warning on the instrument panel? Manuel says change every 8k but warning goes off every 3k.

Per the manual page 209
To reset the oil change indicator system (after
performing the scheduled maintenance), refer to the
following procedure:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Do not
start the engine).
2. Fully depress the accelerator pedal slowly three
times within 10 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position.
NOTE: If the indicator message illuminates when you
start the vehicle, the oil change indicator system did not
reset. If necessary repeat this procedure.


The engine oil change indicator system is duty-cycle based, which
means the engine oil change interval may fluctuate
dependent upon your personal driving style
So that means it will be displayed depending on how you drive. i always change mine when the indicator light comes on and not at the 6k/8k interval

Jason: 7:15 at the pilot on 99th sounds good. I'll bring my swr meter so we can tune it if there is time.
Thanks Darren! As for 2morrow...im thinking i should get an alignment since I never got one after installing the lift. Especially now with new tires. Tim and I are talking about hitting the coves on Sunday.

Thanks Croce! Did u ever get a chance to work on ur jeep? I still have this clanking when i go over bumps or when i shake the jeep. Its comin from the driver side front wheel. Can an improperly seated spring cause this noise?

Ya Jason Installed my Springs/shocls for me last weekend...I still hear the sound when hitting speedbumps, Im starting to think its my trackbar hitting my front rockcrusher diff cover..
I dont think a improperly seated spring would cause the same sound im having, but its very easy to check if their seated correctly or not.
Just look at when the spring sits on the lower spring mount and see if its in the notch (ill see if i can find a pic to show you)
