I'm reviving this thread from the dead, only because I feel what occurred in my situation could be of benefit to others.
My rig is lifted 3.75" in front, 4" in rear. 29" tires.
I've had DW for over a year...485 days to be exact.
Shimmy shimmy around 45-50 MPH, and extreme DW upon any road...
Does anyone know the correct name, and/or, manufacturer part number for the seal (looks like wiper style) between forward edge of each rear door and the body-side pillar?
They're both held on by adhesive, but now mine have ripped and fallen off leaving a gap.
I've turned up other searches...
As FYI, in the meantime I've ordered a walker 52304 pre-cat which should be here by Friday. I have the Walker mid-pipe, perhaps this will provide better fitment than the Catco. I'll have to judge on Friday.

The header (Doug Thorley) is correct, for my MY (2001, California emissions).
But I agree, the pre-cat fabrication quality isn't the greatest.
And I do remember that the stock exhaust was very close also to the yoke, but it never hit (I have a 3" lift).
Perhaps a Walker is my best bet then for...
Hello,
The background...
This past weekend I replaced my cracked head. Because it was off, I went ahead and replaced the exhaust manifold with Doug Thorley Header setup. My pre-cats were also bad, so I bought replacement Catco dual pre-cat setup.
Now the issue...
I doubted the way the...
So it's been a chilly one this fall/winter in Ohio. Since October, it's been cold enough to mask any overheating/hot running temperature issues. But, I know this problem will soon resurface again here in early spring.
Going through all of my shenanigans once more, I recognize that my exhaust...
Well, I can say that this case can be laid to rest. My dumba$$ put the sensor on the return line like so (even though this looks correct per the FSM).
For those who stumble upon this later, be sure to add your T-fitting to the feed line at the front of the tranny like so. Otherwise you'll be...
I think I found my issue....reading the FSM I thought the cooler exit line went into the top of the radiator. So this is where my sensor is installed. Reading through these forums again I think it's the return line I installed my sensor on......

My Cherokee is an '01. It doesn't come stock with any gauge nor does it have a port for one. I put a T-fitting in-line with the cooler OUT line going into the stock transmission cooler. The gauge was supplied with the B&M kit.
I actually think it's working. Over the past couple days, it's moved...
I checked it with the IR gun. The gun didn't read any hotter than 100 F on the T fitting or sender body, or any hotter than 110 F on the hard lines.
It still seems like the gauge has more resistance than it should, because the needle isn't even getting too 100 but maybe it's OK.
I'm going to...
I gave the tranny a bit of a workout today, driving > 30 minutes. The temp gauge rose more than it has in the past, but still didn't make it just yet to the 100 line. Perhaps it's accurate, and the ATF just isn't getting heated up in this cool weather.
Do the results of my resistance test on...
Once I turn my ignition on, it will move a slight bit (maybe 1/8"). So I know some power is getting to it. That same ignition source is also powering my gauge illumination.

Didn't work :( had it pretty hot with the heat gun from Harbor Freight.
So testing continuity/ground from the sender's tip where the wire connects, it's showing large resistance. 170 ohms. I measure anywhere else on the sender's body (threads by the coupler, T fitting itself) it's less than 1...
Nope, stock setup. Was thinking about adding a cooler based on how the tranny temps reported back.
I'm thinking the gauge is actually working, maybe the transmission just isn't getting warm enough in this single digit weather.
The longest commute I've had since the sensor was installed is 15...
Would it matter if I used a thicker gauge wire to connect the sender unit to the gauge? The wire that comes with the kit is about 18-20 ga. Too thin I thought. So I hooked up 14ga for all 3 posts. I don't think this matters, but I thought I would mention it.

I took the sender out.
Put it into a hot pot of water (just the sensor).
Then pulled out and tested resistance on my table. Less than an ohm resistance, but slowly climbing up in resistance as it cooled off.
I think the sensor is OK.
So I put it back in, and checked again for ground at the...
Ok, so I tested for ground (continuity between sender and chassis). Came back very close to 0. I believe grounding is not the issue.
I did accidentally touch the + post and sender gauge post while installing the gauge. It blew out two 25a fuses in my junction box. Perhaps I burnt the sensor...
I did that last night with just a bare wire and stuck it in the ground spot by auxiliary fan and radiator support bracket. It shot the temp gauge up to 350. Maybe it shorted.
I'll go through again here in a few to make proper ground is established for sender body. Hopefully it does the trick...
