    LED low beam headlights too bright for oncoming traffic

    I have a 2.5" lift and have done the wall exercise and reaimed. I've noticed the lower riding cars are generally the ones to flash. I do have an aftermarket bumper and moved my LED fogs further out. I often wonder if they're causing people to flash.

    Overheating, no heat (new parts thrown at it)

    I would perform a block test to rule out head gasket and/or an issue with the heads before throwing any additional parts at it. I had a similar issue not being able to purge all of the air and, ended up being warped heads. The blinking light for the rear defroster occurs at start-up, I assume...

    Aftermarket lights and switches

    I have a similar set up as 1o1Proof from Xprite. Super clean install and easy to add additional accessories.

    Possible Head Gasket Issue

    Both heads were warped due to over heating. I had a bad head gasket that only got worse over time. Heads and valves were replaced along with every gasket from the upper intake down to the heads. I had been fighting air in the cooling system since late January 2024. The temperature gauge never...

    Possible Head Gasket Issue

    I've had the Jeep back for a few weeks and it runs great. Suspect this has been an issue for quite some time as it has more low end power and, accelerates much easier at speed.

    Possible Head Gasket Issue

    Finally have a diagnosis, both heads need replaced or, so they say. Frankly, with air continuously getting into the radiator after burping with a funnel and, using vacuum pressure, it's not hard to believe. Thankfully, it's under warranty and the warranty company agrees it needs repaired. It's a...

    Possible Head Gasket Issue

    Yeah, I could've been more descriptive. It's still under warranty so, it should be covered if it's a head or a head gasket. Appreciate the response.

    Possible Head Gasket Issue

    I don't have any of the symptoms of the core failing inside the Jeep. Heat blows hot, no coolant inside the vehicle, and the coolant smell I get is up by the overflow bottle. I've confirmed the overflow has gotten high enough to push coolant out of the spout. Good suggestion, I'll do some...

    Possible Head Gasket Issue

    I've been chasing air in the cooling system most of the year. Replaced thermostat, water pump, coolant temp sensor, and the overflow bottle and hose. I've burped the system each time and, ran within spec temps after each repair. But, after a while I'd get the same erratic temperature , would...

    What did you do to your JK today?

    I ran 26 PSI in the tires I replaced and that worked well. The 40 PSI the shop put in the KO2s was no bueno, I pulled off and aired down first chance I had.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Put new tires on today. First time using BFG K02s, can already feel the difference vs the hybrid AT/MTs. Smoother and significant reduction in road noise.
