    JK Radio Upgrade - Experience with Insane Audio?

    Thanks for the input. I have seen a lot of posts around ways to do the head unit upgrade, but wanted somethin that was truly plug and play with no gotchas. I hadnt seen Heigh10, I will have to give that a look as well.

    JK Radio Upgrade - Experience with Insane Audio?

    I am looking to upgrade my 2016 JK. I was looking at the Insane Audio as they are plug and play, have direct support for Apple Car Play, keeps your steering wheel controls intact and are waterproof/dustproof. I have always been a car audio guy, but have never seen this brand before. Perhaps...

    Cam shaft is broken and making ticking noise in engine

    Agree with the above. If a camshaft is broken, certain valves wont open. It would run incredibly rough if it runs at all. I would ask another mechanic to look.

    I had to top mine off recently, that is exactly what I bought. I am just not sure what was already in there.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Its not plug and play, but super easy install. Two wires, one ground and one switched power so no one can use it if your keys aren't in it. I bought mine on Amazon, a bit pricey but they look great and the self dimming is fantastic.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Yesterday I swapped out the stock mirror for a frameless Gentex with Homelink built in. We mostly roll with no top and doors, and I didn't want a clip on garage door opener in it. Plus I hate having to get out to manually open the door from outside with the keypad. It was a pretty easy install...

    HOAT vs OAT Coolant: Know Your Coolant and Save Your Engine

    I need to do a coolant flush soon, glad I saw this. Back in the day, you had antifreeze and water. Our BMW recently burned thru an electric water pump because I didn't use the right kind of antifreeze. I bought my JK used, probably wouldn't hurt to do a flush and refill with what I know should...

    Oil Cooler Continues to Leak

    I agree. I would rather spend extra money and do it all at once than to have to come back later and do some of it again. Mine is under 60K, but have heard of the leaking starting at different mileages.

    Oil Cooler Continues to Leak

    Mine isnt leaking yet but am tempted to do the proactive replacement with the metal cooler and do the plugs while everything is disassembled. It seems like if it isnt leaking yet, it eventually will.

    SOLD 2.25 inch Jeep JKU Spring Spacers

    Selling front and back spring spacers for Jeep JKU. I ended up buying full length springs, so I don't need the spacers anymore. Great way to lift your stock Jeep JKU. Simply add in above your current stock springs for a inexpensive lift.

    Finally picked a winch and got it installed. Getting close to being what I imagined when I bought it...
