Everything is pretty much straight forward. It's the ETC and actual VIN
checks that were something to get around on the Wranglers...that's easy now.
Since the PCM's for the Hemi's are mainly Ram/Durango/LX platform and the
Wranglers don't use 1/2 of the modules those others do, we used a blank PCM
and a junkyard VIN and programed the SKIM and PCM that way. The '07
Wranglers use the SKIM now but since they only come with a 3.8L V6, using
that PCM is out of the question. The Dakota "Hemi" PCM swap is definitely
easier since they use the same systems as the Durango/Ram's.

Yeah,I believe I read about that. The guy was working
on it,and then he dropped off the radar for months or
a year and didn't update or anything (if he's the guy
I'm thinking about.)
