    Blown up JK rear brake

    Got this 2016 JK Rubicon Unlimited used a couple years ago from a dealer here in town. Had 35k miles on it, now has 68k on it. Been a good buy, and fun too! Never left us high and dry which makes me happy. This part is where I explain how dumb it is to ignore strange sounds coming from your...

    Lifted JK with no problems

    Our Jk is a daily driver and we've not experienced any problems with the 9550s. It's only been a few months they've been installed, so we'll see what happens.

    Lifted JK with no problems

    I bought a set of exhaust spacers thinking they might be required. Now I'm looking at the spacing between the cross member and the driveshaft thinking it's very unlikely they could touch. Do I really need to put them on?

    Lifted JK with no problems

    How have those 9550s held up for you? The 2.5 lift I got on top of the existing 1.5 is enough for me. My setup is perfect for booning, hunting, exploring, etc. You won't see me out flexing, pretty sure I'll leave that to those that wheel much more seriously than I. Glad to hear you like the lift.
