What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

Finally got around to replacing lower intermediate steering shaft. What a chore that was lower bolt starting coming out what felt smooth then snap ugh! Luckily I was able to get a drill up in there and drill it out after that it was smooth sailing.

Replaced all the tranny fluid with Amsoil (do to an incident) and installed the Caulk bypass. Tranny definitely running cooler now in summer.

Got the Window regulator carrier plate installed today. YAY, I can roll my window up again! Broke the Latch Presenter, the plastic piece the connect the door latch to the carrier plate. If it's not one thing, it's another. Don't really need it once it is all buttoned up, but, if I don't get a new one it is going to bother me.

And now my auto up doesn't seem to function. Works going down, but, not up.

Glad it is fixed !
For auto open did you reset it by holding the window button down about 5 seconds ?
Or something like that ! If I am right do I win a cookie ? lol

No, haven't tried to reset it yet. Figure I'll mess with it when I take it back apart to replace the latch presenter. I'll have to look up the reset procedures (if yours don't work)

OK, just looked, you were half right. Roll window down and hold down for 5 seconds, then roll up and hold for 5 seconds.

I got it off eBay few years back. I don’t even remember the name I think I paid around 65$ for it. Works great throw a air mattress in the back and ready for a good night sleep up off the ground.

Pulled some quads up to NH.

 

[Chukbacca]

Installed KYB Monomax shocks. At 116k those OEM units were dooooone.
Three were easy, but man-o-man that driver rear was a pain in the butt, super grateful to be using my buddy’s lift!

Finally got my sliding back window closed after two days stuck open. Troubleshot all the way back to the switch. When I pinch the wires going into it, it works. Nada otherwise.

Was 4 wheeling on Sunday and it wouldn't close after.

Looking for a new switch now...

I hate those switches, i understand why they put them in the way they did, but when i push on it (to the left) the window should move to the left (close) and when i pull it to the right, the window should move to the right (open)

For some reason it has been installed backwards

That's the way mine worked. Maybe they installed yours backwards. It looks like it could easily be changed to work right.

I just may have to try and swap it, it's been 3 years and I'm still not used to it
