Re: POLL: Transmissions - Wranglers
That is a good price for that large a tire. Cool. On the spare thing, if
these ever wear out one of them will become my spare. I did not bring
myself to spend that money for the tire that does nothing.

Re: Transmissions - Wranglers
Been a while since I looked at my Fords throttle bodies but I seriously
doubt with modern electronically-controlled transmissions there is any need
for a kickdown cable.
