Torch would work. Or if there's an exhaust shop near you, they'd be able to bend it on a tube [user not found]. But yeah easiest would be vice, torch, and a pipe to bend it.

Bought a suoperchip programmer for the :doge:

Got it second hand for $200, dude bought it new and never used it. :iono:
Mainly need it to re-calibrate the speedo- it's off dude to the larger tars that are on the truck. If it works, I'll check out the performance modes.

I got a friend of mine who tunes :doge: and Jeep vehicles.

He was on DFD v1.0 - Flyinryan.
:ohdang:

Truck feels like it's a little down on power, or maybe it's just a heavy bitch
I got all the tune up items coming in, hopefully that puts a little more pep in her step.

What are you throwing on it?! Coils, plugs and an air filter ?
The fuel filter is a real bitch on these if it is anything like on my jgc

I bought a Bully :doge: tuner for my GC for that very reason. I didn't notice any performance increase with the tune.

Yup, those three things. I'm going to look into the fuel filter.

Jessi and I went to the store, with a little highway driving. One of the brakes are sticking on, not sure how I didn't notice, or if it's slowly gotten worse. Going to get it up in the air today and check the brakes at all corners.

Which plugs are you using? I would stick to Mopar/OEM parts but I am a OEM whore. I feel like they work best. The spec calls for copper plugs that are likely still the originals in the Derpkota because :derp: owners

Got it up in the air today. The front calipers were near seized. Replaced the calipers, front rotors and pads. She's 5/7 now. Changed the fluid in the diff too, no more rear end noise.

I have a feeling this truck sat up for a while, so I'll be changing out all the fluids, all that's remaining is power steering, cooling and transmission.

Definitely picked up some lost quickness.

Curious how much did the calipers run you and where did you purchase them?

Chrysler uses it's own PS fluid make sure not to use some POS store brand shit.
