    Good tuner choice

    Download the app. Use the in-app purchase for however many VIN licenses you want. Look at the list of OBDII dongles on the web site. Buy one. I got this one, which seems the most common choice: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XGB4873/?tag=jkforum-20

    JScan is ubiquitous amoung posters here.

    Time for an upgrade

    That assumes there's not a vehicle in front of you... If your air filter is good, the dust won't matter as much as the decreased air flow from the super long air tube. Or at least encourage them to get some pitons...

    Start paying for the gas, insurance, and maintenance.

    Time for an upgrade

    Well let's be honest. 99% of the snorkels on Jeeps are completely useless. And thanks to the Hagen–Poiseuille equation, we can show without a doubt that they rob your engine of power. But they do look cool.

    How do I remove the doors on a 2014 JK?

    You may have to break the hinge pins loose if they haven't been removed much (or at all). Maybe a rubber mallet, used cautiously.

    Hard Top Leaks

    One thing with leaky hardtops. The knobs used to tighten the bolts that hold the Freedom Panels in places are notoriously a cause. The instinct is to crank them down as tight as you can. But this seems to warp the panels a tiny bit and cause leaks. Snug them up, but don't over tighten them.

    Odd problem cooking oil all over the Jeep

    Toss them in the trash and install metal flares. :)

    35's tires with 15 inch wheels stick out too much

    The "normal" wheel for 35's has 4.25 or 4.5" of backspacing. You may find that 15" wheels hit your brake rotors if you move them inboard.

    P0420 & P0430

    No, sorry. I know what they are, but I don't use them.

    P0420 & P0430

    Gizmos that replace your O2 sensors and lie to the computer about what is in your exhaust.

    Towing

    Can you do it? Probably. At least for a little while. But things are going to break.

    2014 Overheating

    Great. And then test the coolant for combustion products to rule out things like a blown head gasket. The eyeball tests don't do that.

    2014 Overheating

    Jack up the nose. Burp the system. Test the coolant for combustion products to rule out things like a blown headgasket.

    Deleting daytime running lights

    Serious question. Why? It's a proven fact that DRLs reduce accident rates. And there isn't any downside to them.

    2017 JKU with 3.6 6-speed security bypass

    JScan will absolutely do it.

    Need advice with engine replacement options

    Fraser and Jasper are both good. I've also used Blueprint motors. I'm not a fan of used motors unless I'm planning to tear them down anyway.

    2012 Wrangler Unlimited Sport Tyre Help

    Get wheels with less backspacing, replace the junk plastic fender flares with high clearance metal ones, and grab your cutoff wheel and a hammer. It'll be fine. If it's going to be used for "aggressive off roading", you can't be super concerned about the bodywork.

    2014 jku Slow transformation

    They will. But how does it makes sense to upgrade to a D44 and then put the weak D30 knuckles on it? Especially since the D44 knuckles only cost around $100 new. Buy a salvage yard D44 and it will have... you guessed it...the D44 knuckles.
