    New tyres on today. Bighorns again but this time the 305/70/17. They still look small. But when against the 265 wow big difference. Heading up Yalwal this weekend for cleanup Australia day, looking forward to a little play aswell.

    Tyres only just touch the plastic lining on the rear. Need to add a 1 inch coil spacer in the front and sort out the elec. disconnect . Tyres have given me a 30-40 mm lift. And tyres are inside the flares. But all ok so far

    Electrical issues.... Spoilt our trip to Stockton beach. Tynans Wollongong have no idea what is the cause. They sent a report to head office and hopefully will get a response back tomorrow with issue.
    What shocked me was a comment from The mechanic " it looks like you use it 4wding.......Regards the electric swaybar, its been through water!!!!!!".. I was shocked... Really shocked. I told them yes it rained the other day. The whole car got wet....am I being un reasonable to expect a different response. I bought a 4wd to use as a 4wd

    Very annoyed. Can some one recommend me another jeep service department that deals with used 4wd's south Sydney'ish. Will try suttons in zetland (bought the car there)
    Cheers
    Jose.

    My mates JK dropped Uni Joint caps on the front axles with 6000 Ks on the clock and the dealers first question was do you take it off road..... No the front axle was put in there so we can drive it front wheel drive incase we lose the rear drive shaft.........

    Hi Jose,

    Not sure about dealers in south Sydney but SVM, either in Chatswood (now technically a Volvo dealership) or Mosman (where the Jeep franchise went after Chatswood) are both good. They have good customer service departments and know their stuff.

    I personally wouldn't trust Tynan Wollongong to change a light bulb. I bought my car from them and had no end of trouble with them. Customer service was lousy and Jeep/Chrysler product knowledge was none existent. Some of the rubbish they told me about the Wrangler spec's were comical. I wouldn't ever go back to them. I'm surprised they even recognised your car as a Jeep (they must have been having a good day!).

    Thanks Paul.
    Agree, jeep knowledge is none existent. Will keep mosman in mind for future visits
    Cheers

    The dealer at Chatswood (in reality Artarmon) is where I have taken my jeep off & on for 8 years) when specialised things come up. they are very good with their service and explain most things clearly. They even give you an upfront estimate (well on most things anyway).
    But don't expect cheap part prices!!

    I have found a USA Mopar dealer who will ship Jeep OEM items at incredibly cheap prices. most are 1/4 of the RRP here. That's right 1/4! shipped
