Thank you for posting this sir. My 2017 wrangler started doing the same thing a couple days ago. Same wheel and all. It’s’ fine going to work when it’s cooler but coming home in the heat it starts seizing up about 3/4 of the way home. Pulling to the right, smelling the burning smell and super hot rotor when I get home. Good job. Hope it held out for you!

God your a fool !!! seized calipers ALWAYS RE SEIZE and you never never never make contact with the piston in the caliper with the bear metal of the C clamp you use an old pad or a caliper tool. You got so lucky I can only see you doing harm to your self and you jeep in the future. GO TO A MECHANIC BECAUSE YOUR NOT ONE!!!!

You didn’t cover tire size

Im learning alot from this video, and especially the comments!!! thanks everyone!!!

Just happened to me literally yesterday. Jeep barely wanted to move. I was only a block away and limped home. No messing around. Ordered new one. They only last so long, and 100,000 miles...that's good enuf. Don't want future issues

Can you send outgoing APRS messages from within APRSDroid with this config? Or is the radio one-way with RX data packets only?

*When you pressed on the brakes to see if that caliper would move did you replace the cap on the brake fluid reservoir first?*

Did you have to send them your Jeeps ECM to them do anything with it for the Traildash?

taking the cap off is irrelevant lol.

always compress piston at the center or put a pad againt it and compress, pressing at edge wil causr piston to get jammed or tear the seal on piston, always go straight inwards!!

Mines doing the exact same thing. It works fine when it's cooled down. About 15 minutes of driving its dragging again.

For those still watching. A simpler way is to use an 8 pin to 6 pin converter cable and a 6 pin cable for and with a mobilnkd tnc. This will send it via Bluetooth to your device. Works great. Thanks for showing the settings.

Outstanding! Thank you for showing this can be done!

I tried to use aprs Droid via Bluetooth snd hardwire but the aprsdroid software doesn't recognize the USB and will stop running as soon as I start it. Similar with the Bluetooth. How dud you get aprsdroid yo work with the ftm400? Thanks KQ4ELY. Mike

No grey tank? Where does the sink water go?

Do I need to buy the Yaesu BU2 Bluetooth chip for the Yaesu FT 400XDR?

Thanks for this! I don’t suppose you’d know whether this is also doable with the FTM-300? Surely it is.

Absolutely fabulous camper, I hope you have many years of enjoyable camping experiences that hopefully you will shares with us all on KZbin …. Love it 😊 thanks 😊 for sharing

If the caliper is that hard to push in with a C-clamp, it's obviously seized. Time to replace it. Also, you should push in on the center of the piston, not the edge. Get on the highwas for a while. It will seize up again.

You're in SA? I know those runways! RAFB! #KI5RAB

Inherit with the Jks. Jeep cut corners and use plastic pistons. Slightest amount of debris in the system causes the calipers the bind. You’ll need to replace them.

Not !!! I stopped watching when he placed a C clamp directly on the piston cup. High possibility Cup will get distorted and hang up even more

make sure the c clamp is in the center of the piston

Can't get CT-165 anymore. Any replacements?

I’ve got a RR on a 2004 Liberty Renegade that’s stuck, going to try your method, thanks!

You need to open the bleeder screw while doing this. You really don't want to push that old fluid back through your master cylinder. I made that mistake and had to replace the master cylinder before.

What was that antenna on the front driver side for?

Great video. Bought a 04 WJ with this installed and had no clue how to operate it. This is so much better than trying to make sense of the pdf download. Thanks so much

Pretty video, wish you would talk more about the trailer, for example pros and cons?

I just turned 69 and that was the worst winter weather I have ever seen in Texas! In fact, it tied records set in the late 1800's for the lowest temperature ever seen in the Brazos Valley. Wonderful views of my favorite park. Hope you hiked Dog Canyon and Devils Den from the 9 point draw site. Do you still like the TetonX?

🤣👎

Just a couple of things. I just bought my FTM 400 with an internal Bluetooth card. You used a BT serial adapter. Was there a reason why you didn’t use an internal card? Second, APRS droid website says it’s no longer supporting the software, and someone in the comments said it doesn’t work past Android 9. What version of Android are you using? Thanks.

Any updates on this set up? is it still working well? thank you

I’m curious how well your jeep tows the trailer. My wife and I just bought our first wrangler, and I wouldn’t think the 3500 lbs tow rating would be enough. Perhaps your tow rating is higher?

It's not fixed. But on the trail or you just need time to replace it this is how you do it. But this is a sign it's time to replace your caliper. And always replace them both. But I'm glad you made the video, it will help someone out in a bind. But they aren't fixed, they're dying. It's it's just easier to buy new than rebuild a caliper. 👍🏻👍🏻

I'm wondering what was the purpose of this Vid? A vid of you on a test drive from the cockpit. What a waste of time. I skipped forward, you showed nothing worth learning.Hey but you got a view, Truth.

Intech rip off

What is the tongue weight and weight with the fridge and battery. No water as i don’t need to fill the tank. But i need the burner frodge and one lithium battery. I have cfx3 45 already.

I'm late to the show, but what kind of boon docking longevity do you get on the refridgerator/freezer system? Does solar keep you up and running very long? Can you add batteries if needed (based on the space they allot for that)?. Looks like a great rig. Did you need to "comfy up" the bedding?

whats your liquid asset to debt ratio?

The adapter you have linked is unavailable. They have another one but its not specifically listed as SPP. Do you know if that is critical?

Wood lol

If you put a thin piece of would or metal b4 the cclamp.You will compress the piston even and easy w out marring the metal or rubber ring

I have been looking at this kind of trailer and would like to know how warm it keeps you at night. With that ice storm and all how did it stand up?

Anyone ever use the 12 volt AC in the South ? How's it do in real summer temps ??

I did the same but didnt you backcountry....I just downloaded the OSM version of aprsdroid.....downloaded the map for the area I wanted and done !

You should put a flat piece of metal between the caliper and the c clamp instead of putting pressure in one spot...

Oh please what type/ brand is the 12v aircon unit. Does it work really well

Need this in Australia
