You'll like them. I have them in my JK and TJ. There isn't another that is comparable.

Then I highly recommend the TeraFlex hand throttle. That's what I have on my TJ. I installed it in about 30 minutes. 1 tip, remove the actual throttle cable and wrap the wire behind it. The throttle cable will help hold the hand throttle cable onto the throttle body.

It is very easy. They sort of work in tandem. Yes, you can use 1 at a time even though they are both connected to the throttle body, the hand throttle will have a dead spot until you reach the point the gas pedal is. Since the gas pedal wire is directly attached to the throttle body, it moves...

The hand throttle is great with a manual.

No turn in needed. My NV3550 is getting replaced with an automatic this winter. Even with the hand throttle, I still want an auto for the rocks. 😂 Love talking TJ's on a JK forum 😉

No matter the Wrangler, it is driving a brick. Aerodynamics was not a consideration. That and the tires would be shot by the end of the 6-hour road trip 😆

My TJ only gets driven on the road now between the cabin/hotel and the trail and occasionally to dinner after a day on the trail. I haul it from home to wherever we are going. It is still capable of road driving, but I don't want to take a chance on getting a ticket because of not having the...

Looks good John!

Changed the passenger front soft brake hose. It would pull to the driver side when softly hitting the brakes, but brake straight when hard on them. I changed the caliper and it didn't help, even to the point last weekend of almost locking the front passenger side. Changed the hose and it seems...

I have had good luck from Standard products.

It would be a great spot to mount a GoPro. I've got my phone mounted to the Bulletpoint on top of the dash.

Yes, it is a 1" ball mount. It will work with RAM or the Bulletpoint 1" to 20mm mounts.

Installed my CMM grab handles. Got tired of the wife and kids complaining about getting in a stock height JK with 33's🤦‍♂️

3.6? Probably either a bad oil cooler if it's original or the temp sensor. They are also known for damaged wiring under the oil cooler. Honestly, I'd replace it all if you're going to have the intake out already.

Got the Bestop Trektop on in place of the hard top. It's an older top that my brother had. It should be fun to see if it has any leaks tomorrow at the car wash. If it does, I'll get the replacement top, sides, and back from Bestop retop.
