    Aftermarket Backup Camera for 2015 JK (2025 version)

    I think there would have to be key on power to the tail lights . Hazard Lights , turn signal , brakes , running lights etc

    BF Goodrich K03

    Well that blows about your bonus . That’s a lot of money to lose out on . I considered for about 30 seconds to try the TOYO as would have saved significant $. But a lot of unkowns about that tire In all honesty I will always swear by the K02 . Had them in sorts of rugged terrain, super...

    Code P0302

    The CEL came back on a day or two after coil pack replacement . Drove it a couple weeks and didn’t have power loss . Just at idle felt a bit rough . Picked up an injector and brought it to a shop to get diagnosed and figured it was injector . Shop called me back about 30 mins later ...

    Synthetic oil

    This is good intel . I use Mobil 1 synthetic in my 2008 JK . 305 000 KM / 189 518 miles . Runs really good . Am interested in your thoughts . I was under the impression from what I have read in the past non synthetic differential fluid is the way to go . As it sticks to gears better than...

    Scared to drive ol' Red: another death wobble story

    Bang on comment . Solid front axles were used in quite a few trucks & the original SUV’s like Bromcos & Blazers back in the day . Knew a few who owned them.. Wobble was never an issue . Seems the Wrangler is highly sensitive if geometry is out . Also prone to wearing out components like...
