ROCK HARD 4X4™ DOUBLEWALL TRANSMISSION CROSSMEMBER FOR 3.6L JEEP WRANGLER JK 2/4DR 2012 - 2018 [RH-9061]

Rock Hard 4x4 is very proud to offer the Heaviest Duty Transmission Crossmember for the Jeep Wrangler JK 2/4DR 2012 - 2018 3.6L.

Upgrade your factory 14-gauge stamped steel transmission crossmember to our 3/16" + 3/16" MASSIVE 3/8" DoubleWall Crossmember!

Total Weight: 27 lbs.

Our top and bottom plate 3/16" thick design gives you a total of 3/8" plate steel strength! Designed to fit 2012-2018 3.6L engines.

Ease of Install
In under 1 hour - including removal of your factory crossmember - you can complete this critical upgrade. We designed this crossmember to be a drop in replacement for your factory transmission crossmember. Simple hand tools required - no drill cutting or welding!

Precision Made Strength
Each crossmember is laser cut from 3/16" thick steel and coated in our weather and debris resistant powder coat finish. Strength is proven on virtually all Jeep enthusiast forums with glowing reviews. Since 2007 our skid plate system has been the undisputed leader in undercarriage protection.

Components
RH4x4 crossmembers are very recognizable for two major reasons: beefy unmatched strength and laser precision fitment. What makes up a RH4x4 crossmember is what makes it so strong.

Powder Coated Finish
Other crossmembers on the market come bare steel adding an unexpected and unfortunate setback. Ours comes ready to install right out of the box.

Thermostat Housing Replace and Bleeding Air from Cooling System - 2015 Jeep Wrangler JK 3.6L

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4XEUc8fdRg&w=640&h=360]

It's time to take care of that leak! I wanted to do this before the Moab trip, and I'm running out of time. So, today was the day! In this video, I change out my thermostat and housing assembly. I didn't drain the radiator for this, and then I show how I bled the air out of the cooling system with help of a spillproof funnel.

Here are the parts I mentioned:

MOPAR 5184651AH - OEM Part - Thermostat and Housing:
https://amzn.to/2o28CbK

Here's what MY manual says about the coolant I need:

MS-12106 OAT (MS-90032)

The engine cooling system must be protected
with a high-quality antifreeze coolant to provide
proper corrosion protection and to protect
against engine overheating. A solution of 50%
OAT (Organic Additive Technology) coolant that
meets the requirements of Chrysler Material
Standard MS-12106 and 50% water is recommended.
Refer to “Maintenance Procedures” in
“Maintaining Your Vehicle” for proper coolant
selection.

MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHICH COOLANT YOUR SPECIFIC YEAR NEEDS. It's confusing I know. Check your owners manual!

Using Power Tank Nitrogen Shock Inflator and Regulator to Fill my King Piggyback Shocks

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwFKURYwfaM&w=640&h=360]

Here's a video showing my process for topping off the nitrogen on my King shocks. It's easy to forget that these higher end shocks require maintenance!

Shock Inflator with Gauge from Power Tank. Get a professional shock inflator tool at an affordable price. Our Shock Inflator has quickly become the industry favorite shock service tool. We designed it with features that others do not have like true USA made No Air Loss (NAL) chucks that do not leak because even the smallest leak can cause you to pull out your hair trying to get the exact shock pressure.

We attach this to a very supple high pressure air hose so getting the NAL chuck on that hidden schrader valve is easier. The hose is attached to an ergonomically shaped machined aluminum grip with our own micro adjust air valve. A durable and accurate gauge is mounted atop the grip.

Steve recommends you get the Power Wrench (CO2-Wren) to make installing and removing the NAL chuck easier. Just connect your N2 to the bottom of the grip, attach the NAL chuck on your shock, open the red micro valve adding just the amount of pressure, remove the NAL chuck and move on. Easy.

If you have IFP (internal floating piston) shocks that fill with a needle we have them (SIG-5000) and they work well with all of our shock inflators.

Details:

300 psi Digital Gauge or 500 psi Liquid Analog
No Air Loss chuck
3 foot HP line
Includes EVA protective case
