I need to get to the back passenger side spark plugs on a 2009 Jeep Wrangler (3.8L). It's a tight back there - has anyone used this on a 07-10 Jeep?

Have not used on Jeep, have used on Hemi motor back plugs under brake booster etc.. Works good. I had to steel wool the chrome coating off of my socket because it was flaking off and I didnt want that in my motor.

I also have mine installed. I have a 2001 Jeep TJ bolted right up to my stock axles. I do have a lift and oversized tires in addition I've been off roading on several occasions with them on with no issues. Also, they looked fine the last time i changed my oil and rotated my tires. I looked for signs of cracking, poor wear, and anything else that may have any issue.

That is exactly what I did. The harness was slightly different than the stock plug. It came with directions that allowed me to wire it in with no problems. There were some specific instructions about specific years of Ford trucks and the brake wire, but I was able to figure it out with the instructions and a simple voltage meter.

I had mine cut - then followed the instructions. It worked perfectly. Maybe you got a defective key? My wrangler is a 2008.

You might have stretched the springs too far and they can't stretch anymore to release it. My Jeep has two different "depths" of vents. I must say though, the fasteners of this thing are weak. My wife accidentally bumped mine and it broke, breaking one of the spring arms and making it completely useless. Hopefully you have better luck than I did. I'm searching for something new. At least for the $12 I paid for this thing about a year ago, I got an iPhone/iPod/iPad USB cable, which alone will cost you about that much. If it weren't for that, I'd be pretty upset.

I put these on a 2002 and they were a little tight since the wiring harness on the jeep is short. I cut mine and rewired it and they work perfectly now

Depending on vehicle installing in. The NGK web sight and other info web sights do not recommend using anti-seize with this type of spark plug. My application was on a Honda and I did not use any anti-seize.

I can tell you that we installed them in a Chevy truck and a Jeep. We pulled the plugs after 1000 miles. Nothing but backfiring and missing. Put regular plugs back in with no problems.

It should fit on your front and rear axle, it's the same Dana 44 rear end I have on my 2013 Wrangler, but you may have to jack up the frame on one side to move the track bar and then you would be able to torque the rest of the bolts. The lube locker gasket is really good for this installation. My JK Wrangler requires a Dana 30 for the front, and that bolted up without any changes. Hope this helps you on your installation.

You might have to do some cutting. I took mine off because it blocks the headlights and makes the jeep do a nose dive(60 lbs). It doesn't leave room for winch or future bumper choices. Not trying to tell you what to do but I got sick of having to take mods off because they weren't compadable with future better mods. I loved it for a month, then hated the grill guard. Sorry to go off on a tangent! Good luck.

This quote comes directly from NGK's web site under Tech Support - number 3 - GAPPING.Quote "While it is a popular misconception that plugs are pre-gapped from the factory, the fact remains that the gap must be adjusted for the vehicle that the spark plug is intended for."Check your owners manual for the correct GAP for your bike.-v-

you need the front towing bar that mounts onto the car... I had one already installed from a previous owner... then I had the modify the mounts a bit... works great though, towed my jeep about 2000 miles with no problems, oh and I can disconnect my axles so the wheels don't turn the transmission.... I guess if you don't disconnect your drive shaft you'll blow up your trany... no oil flow... be carful with an old car like that, I'd get a full trailer if I were you... my cars not a classic... wouldn't want to hurt a beauty like a Stingray

Yes, to loose it, you might need a lot of force if you didn't apply anti-seize when you installed them. I did mine with ease. This Socket also come with magnet so it hold the spark plug when you take and put them back down. Remember when you install the spark plug back, just use this socket and your hand to manually and slowly alignment it in place and start tighten it with your hand too. then attach your wrench to this socket and tighten it with really little force. Hope this helps.

I put it on a Jk and I needed a harness. Can't say about the TJ, I'm sure you can find some info on the forums.

I drive a 2006 Jeep Wrangler. Have no idea. But if you do what I did and did just a little research you can find this out yourself. Instead of leaching or plain ass laziness on your part. You've got amazon so you've probably heard of a little site called Google. Wth is wrong with society when you want other ppl to figure out your problems. Now that being said if you owed a jeep and had question about the quality or how fast it shipped I'd be more than answer your question. But seeing how you drive a Korean made turd bucket you ought to make friends with Mr. Google cause you gonna need him.

Well you will break the plugs, what I find is this tool help to loosing the plugs, after you loosing them try to soak them overnight. Soaking works sometime. Trust me you will break some plugs, this is where you need the lisle spark plug extractor also. And please be very patient (do not use impact), I tried and this method almost cause me big money. Good luck ps I changed my plugs at 181km, they were do this job was a three year put off, but I got it done thank god!!!.

Mine was deep, I had no choice but to use a socket wrench. It seemed to follow the original threads, so getting it in straight wasn't really a problem I had to tackle. The grease is critical. It threads easy and helps grab the shavings very well. I've changed my plugs since the change and it was like normal. Came out as it should and the new plug screwed right back in. I now carry a spare kit in my 2 other vehicles. Good luck.
