Vehicle came in with a check engine light on and low compression on cylinder #3.  Sherman determined the problem is in the cylinder head.  He removed the cylinder head and now we are waiting on the machine shop to test the head and let us know its fate!

After removing the cylinder head and sending it to the machine shop for inspection we learned the head is cracked.  So Brad and Dan removed the engine and now it is ready for the Jasper unit to be assembled and installed along with a new clutch and flywheel.

Two TJ's, two driveshaft repairs

Both front driveshaft cardin joints are worn. One from playing in the snow and water allowing moisture into the cardin joint causing it to squeak and the other from off road driving causing excessive u-joint wear and a huge vibration. 

 

How much noise can one cardin joint make?

Squeak....Squeak....Squeak....Squeak.... constantly and it will drive you nuts!

Oil leaks and overheating problems....

2003 Grand Cherokee 4.7L dropped off for overheating.  Unusual and expensive failure. The hydra-fan has locked up and will not allow the cooling fan to turn.  The hydra-fan is run by power steering fluid and the flow is controlled by the pcm to maintain correct fan speed.

A little fine tuning.....

Dan is doing some adjustments to the Borla exhaust he installed on a new 2012 Dodge Challenger R/T.

Nothing a bench grinder won't take care of!

Exhaust outlets just about aligned.

Cabin Air Filter.....

This is a good example of why you should change your cabin air filter every year.  Without it this is what you are breathing in driving around town!
