Help please
Let me start out thanking everyone for the help.
We have a 07 JKU auto. It is driven by my wife mostly. It has 52k on it when the problem started. We had it in for a leaking exhaust manifold at Jeep. They at the same time did a couple of recalls, while they had it. One of those recalls was for the trans hot oil warning. When we picked up the jeep it seemed to have a issue shifting from 1-2 gear. It would lunge and then shift really hard into gear. We took it back and they have no idea why. They reflashed the computer and said it was fixed. Well it wasn't. It was better for about a week. In the mean time we bought another New JKUR from a different dealer( a recommendation from a friend). We started talking with the service writer at the new dealer and he said bring him the 07 to look at it. Well fast forward 3 1/2 months 10 trips to the dealer and it still has an issue. They have had the jeep more than i have in the last few months. They have replaced a part in the old trans, reflashed the ECM 3 tomes, replaced the ECM and now a new trans. They have blamed the 37" tires. They installed some stock rims and tires on it( after a reflash) and it did it ti them on the test drive. they have blamed the 2 different programmers i have had. I told them, I haven't had a programmer installed since they have had it. I called the GM of the dealership( who I go wheelin with) to get him involved. They called me today, saying it still has the same issue. It has a hard shift from 1-2 and 3-4. They are now scratching their heads and are calling a jeep service adviser to come out.
Does anyone have any ideas on what is wrong? I'm lost, the dealer is lost. WTF.
Looks kinda funny with the stockers on it.
This is the normal look.

Thanks Wolf. It does look really funny with the stockers. I tried to put LED's on it and the wife insisted on the Hella's. it does look good with them.

I'm actually making the jump to LEDs within the next few months. Currently I have a 2.5" lift with 285/70/17 tires but now making the jump to 3" lift and 35s! I have cheap warn lighting that I got half for free with the winch but gotta start somewhere. I got a great deal from visionx on some great lighting. Hopefully I can show you all how it goes! I want 37s but I can't justify them hahaha. It's my daily driver, I'm a college student, and I go to school 500 miles from my home hahaha, your rig looks great with those meats though!

I installed the Cobra 75 with the cool tech mount. It's the nicest mount I could find. I used the teraflex antenna mount out back. It took about 1 1/2 hours to run all the wires and hook it up. No big deal. Hardest part was running the antenna cable under the carpet. Use the rubber grommet on the tail gait to get into the cab. Adler that, run it under the black molding in the tail gate. Then under the carpet.
