🛠️ What did you do to your Jeep 392 today?

Clipped in the Z Locker oem plug to the back differential in hopes it fully resolves the locker flash issue
At 121,000 miles my 392 has developed the same problem. It only showed up shifting from 4low to 4high part time. Now at 122,000 miles I just ordered and received 2 Z Locker oem plugs. I will install the first one on the rear to see if that corrects the issue, if not, install the other one on the front and leave both of them on.

I only plugged in one as the rear was where the error was showing on the dash

Just finished installing Z locker oem on the rear and that solved the problem. I now have a spare in case the front acts up.
 
winter so far has been minor snow with freezing rain... so tracks the 392 AEV with 37's normally just cruises became a sneaky snare for the sleeping driver:

Last year with WildPeak W's we merrily cruised here in 18" of fresh. This year in 12-14" of crusty, I kept spinning - thinking are these tyres worn out??? Then we hiked our track.....

The heavy rains had frozen below the snow so we were driving on continuous ice, the crusty snow helped keep us straight but hardly any drive... very scary deceptive conditions.

Here kinda looks like 12" of snow:

But deep and dark a foot down was 3-4" of sheet ice visible here impossible to walk on.

Note to self-snowshoes hence forth.

This '24 has been excellent with 6 month winters, the boys just don't want to plant it before the '26 arrives.

sometimes you see snow pics and it makes you miss the snow fun, this is one of them
 
Pulled out the 4.5” MC rear springs due to serious sag and put in 5.5” Metal Cloak rears.

I pulled my 3.5s out and put in 4.5 just because of gear in the back..I wonder if yours sagged too much because long arms VRs mid arms. I really don’t see how the arms would make a difference .
I do know the long arms are a more plush ride .
 
Installed some engine bay/hood lights, used some left over Lux mini rock lights
Great! Now I have a new project. LOL!!
Did you add some type of plunger switch that turns them on when you open the hood?

There is an OEM switch already, and that bracket has a spare hole for adding another switch. IIRC, it's at the front edge of the engine bay. I bought a switch to do this, but I do not have the wire harness side plug and wire for it. Im thinking a universal switch would have been a better option, and should still fit in the OEM bracket just fine.

i thought about this but decided to just have an indepeandt switch off my pannel fo it.
 
My 26 was first and I do like that gun. I found the 19 a bit too large for a concealed gun and a bit small for a range gun. I also have 43 as well as 43x but recently went to Sig P365 and dont think I have shot my Glocks in 9 months.

After leaving the dealer for an oil change the other day, a "Hood open" dash light came on. I checked and confirmed that the hood was closed. After some research, I learned that a hood sensor exists and that they easily get dust inside and trip/ fail.

I removed the rubber grommet and sprayed it extensively with a soapy water and compressed the plunger for a good minute to clear any debris. Let the Jeep sit for an hour, and turned it back on, same light came on. Has anyone had to exchange their faulty hood sensor? I am outside of the 3 year/36k warranty and don't think this will be covered, unless someone knows otherwise?
Thanks!
