    18" to 17" wheels

    The ones I have now are actually e rated, but I most likely won’t get e rated again.

    I would, but some of the finish chipped off in the center of the rim and I’m not skilled enough to smooth it to be honest.

    18" to 17" wheels

    2012 JKU Sahara No lift (i don't think), aftermarket bumpers, stock fenders. Currently have 275/65/18 BFG KO2 on the silver sahara wheels. I'm looking to change them to black wheels, but the selection for 18in is slim and couldn't find one I liked. Can I go down to 17in wheels (and new tires...

    Driving issues possibley brakes

    Update: Wheel bearings were fine. We end up taking it to our local shop because we were just fishing at this point. They had an abs scanner, code for right rear sensor came up. Turns out I have a small rear axle leak which went into that sensor. The leak isn’t strong enough where there was any...

    Driving issues possibley brakes

    So unfortunately the issue happened again the next morning, but this time my dad was able to experience it too. It was more of a crunch/grinding noise with a nose dive jolt and I couldn’t go forward more than 3mph, I was able to freely reverse back into my parking spot though. He came to the...

    Driving issues possibley brakes

    My dad helped replace the brakes. It took us a few good hours, hardest part was getting the rotor off. We replaced the rear brake pads and rotors, and the rear driver side caliper bracket, one of the long pins was stuck and ended up snapping while trying to remove. Inside brake pads were worn...

    No, I doubled checked that it was down. I can’t remember the last time I had it up. And it’s still in 2wd as well, I haven’t had in 4w for some time.

    Would this be more of just replacing the pads, or would that include rotors too? I won’t be looking at my brakes until tomorrow morning when it’s cooler out.

    Driving issues possibley brakes

    As someone from NJ I don’t disagree with you lol! Yes, after applying the brakes so the sound and halt will stop, if I accelerate again as soon as I hit about 10mph it jerk/ halts and makes a weird almost grinding sound. I didn’t want to push is past the 10mph so I don’t know if it’ll happen...

    I can’t really get it to go past 10mph-ish so I don’t know it it’ll happen going into 3rd gear I’m not sure where the sound is coming from. We’ll be checking the brakes tomorrow but I will check the battery today! Thank you!

    I did just get my oil changed at jeep a week ago, and I previously had conventional oil but they put in full synthetic. My rotors are pretty rusty, especially the rear ones. Since I’ve had it I haven't had to replace my brakes yet.

    Hard shift automatic trans

    So it my transmission fluid was a little low, so I added some. The issue getting into second gear still persists, the abs traction and downhill lights went off. However, if I drive out of my parking spot the issue happens. If I reverse out of my parking spot then drive it does not happen. I...

    Hard shift automatic trans

    Now this morning it did it again, but this time the abs, traction, and downhill lights came on. I didn’t wanna further risk the issue so I parked and turned it off.
