    Catalytic Converter Recommendations for 2008 JKU - Code 420

    Was going to look more into that as well …I actually believe that is an issue I’m having with my 2006 Camry right now. 😒 How to go about trouble shooting on the JKU?

    JK Heater Hose Retainer clip - source???

    Thought about those and will likely go with something similar, but hoping for the replacements as they have much more structure and support to keep the hoses up and away form the exhaust manifolds while wheeling. ;) I was able to locate the Weld Stud mount zip tie type (Avery Dennison Weld...

    JK Heater Hose Retainer clip - source???

    While replacing the valve cover gaskets the Heater Hose Retainer Clip that pushes onto the valve cover stand off bolts broke, Brittle form heat over time, and I am trying to locate a replacement part. I haven't been able to locate the part or even a part number for reference...

    Catalytic Converter Recommendations for 2008 JKU - Code 420

    AJ Thanks for the additional info. I'm going to check in with a local exhaust shop to see they have any insights to work around the CA car but in AZ, although I'm not optimistic about it at this point. I have a feeling I'm going to have to pony up for some new (or maybe locate used) CARB...

    Catalytic Converter Recommendations for 2008 JKU - Code 420

    Interesting...they don't even look at anything, just plug in the OBD II and whatever it reads is what it reads. All areas (Cats / EVAP/ etc) must be "reporting" to/from ECU (sometimes it take 100 miles or so for the Cat Banks to be "reporting") and once they do if they trigger check engine...

    Catalytic Converter Recommendations for 2008 JKU - Code 420

    Did a precursory online search and I don't even see a Mopar CARB option, just the MagnaFlow at $5,800 -- that's crazy and not something I can afford. Per the guy I talked with there is no way to adjust/reprogram the ECU ( I am sure there is some car computer guru somewhere that could, but I...

    Catalytic Converter Recommendations for 2008 JKU - Code 420

    Saga Continues...was finally able to to get the ordered Cats in...preceded by new exhaust manifolds (OEMs multiple cracks), valve cover gaskets, and upper oil pan gasket replacements...anyway got these installed, took a little finesing and yes had to drop trans crossmember to remove OEM and get...

    Dorman exhaust manifold cracked in 3 months.

    Has anyone actually tried these (afE Blade Runner exhaust manifolds) -- I am considering these as replacements to my cracked OEMs. I like the idea of staying with iron as too many comments floating around about others cracking or so hot the melt plug wire etc. Thoughts/experience?

    Catalytic Converter Recommendations for 2008 JKU - Code 420

    Yup, planning on swapping the O2 sensors as new. We'll see how it goes.

    Catalytic Converter Recommendations for 2008 JKU - Code 420

    Ordered so we'll see what happens, Hopefully can get at it next week. I've also had a slight exhaust leak for years so going to inspect exhaust manifolds to try to pin down location and work that one first then Cat Replacement. 🤞

    Catalytic Converter Recommendations for 2008 JKU - Code 420

    That's interesting...fit right in without modifications? Might be an interesting solution to get the emissions done.

    Catalytic Converter Recommendations for 2008 JKU - Code 420

    Yep as Overlander said I’m in AZ (escaped CA a couple years ago). Will look into the Magna Flow as I have their exhaust and really like it. Still interested in low cost options if any recommendations as a possible short term solution.

    Catalytic Converter Recommendations for 2008 JKU - Code 420

    2008 JKU with 125,000 miles is throwing PO420 code (Right / Passenger side, yes?) and I need to get it pass emissions testing (in Arizona). Tried replacing both O2 sensors on that side and all seemed good after I cleared the code until about 90 miles later (when CMU started "reporting" again)...

    OBD-2 Mount Retainer and/or Splitter

    Closeout follow up mostly for anyone else that references this thread later: 1) "Retainer" clips are integrated on the side of the OBD-II port that simply click into the OND mount bracket, press them in to remove. On mine one of the press in side clips had broken off so no longer clicked into...

    OBD-2 Mount Retainer and/or Splitter

    I saw the splitters on Amazon figure I'd try one, just curious if anyone had any experience with them and could confirm that they work seamlessly or if any problems or things to be aware of.

    OBD-2 Mount Retainer and/or Splitter

    Yep, I must say that their emissions process is much better and cheaper than Cali, just this particular detail is a pain...I guess I get it they don't want one of their techs being blamed for damaging someone's OBD port, but jeez. I'll look more closely at it tomorrow to try to figure out a way...

    OBD-2 Mount Retainer and/or Splitter

    I still have the OEM metal bracket, it originally had a plastic retailer that clipped around the the OBB port to clip it into place. That plastic retainer is what I can't seem to locate... might have to try to find a salvage yard and scour a few CDJR vehicles for one. Just not what I have time...

    OBD-2 Mount Retainer and/or Splitter

    I did some searching and didn't see any specific threads on this/these topics (or maybe I was unsuccessful in locating) so here goes. Situation: The OBD-II in my 2008 JKU has been kicked enough times (I know I'm not the only one to accidentally kick that sucker) that the plastic retainer...
