Is it possible there is a vacuum leak? Maybe a line or hose did not get properly connected after maintenance. Or maybe a line or hose is cracked/leaking.

Awesome!! Thanks for the pic. I’ll attack it in the morning.

Where is this plate located? Can I see it without pulling any skins?

Hey, on my 2007 JKU/Rubicon, the driver side doors, both front and back do not trigger the dome light or the door ajar light. My particuar JKU does not have power windows or power locks. It has two sets of doors though, half and full. The passenger front, rear and tailgate functions are all...

I am not sure if I am just not used to the limo sized wheelbase of the JKU or the pats are to blame LOL. My TJ on 35's could get more places, well at least it feels that way. What is the buzz on the BFG durability? I have had good luck and never ripped or cut a sidewall. Had a few punctures...

Which would you run an a rig that is not a daily driver, but does get driven to the trails. 40" 13.5w x 17 beadlock wheels. We do some "overlanding" but my thing is rocks. I am running patagonia milestars at the moment. I am not going to bash the pattys, they must fill a use for someone I am...

Today, I unloaded it. Had way too much gear for three day trip that we had to bail on 21 miles into. We (three rigs) were set to do the Mojave road from Friday to Sunday. We picked a "record temp" weekend to do it. Was supposed to be mid 80's typically but by the time we pulled the plug, it was...

A few small things this last few days. Finished my rotopax mounts for my cobbled together roof rack and built a heat shield to protect the reservoir hose going from coilover to reservoir. I t crossed too close to the exhaust tube.

Love the motobilt vent frame. I get it when things don't line up and match.

We should start a "fire suppression" thread. It is a skill we should all know. My training is nil.

I have two elements on the front doors, a 2.5lb kiddie in rear seat and a 2.5lb extinguisher mounted on a quick release attached to the rear tire swing out. What is the drawback with the elements?

Being prepared is cost saving as you saw. LOL. Has anyone tried or carry the "element" extinguishers?

Get a small electric pressure washer for $300, keep it nice and clean. That way the shop does not notice the leaks. :unsure:

I think your wear and tear is typical of trail use. Carry a good plug kit and maybe one of the newish sidewall patches. When you notice you can't get up obstacles as easy as the last trip, consider a new set. If you are able to get the tires to "minimum tread depth", that is a good time to get...

I have an older (2009ish) teraflex dana 60 and teraflex track bar installed on my JKU. I just installed a Rebel Recon coil over kit and found the teraflex track bar mount was going to bind the coils and I had to cut a large piece of the track bar mount off to make room for the coil over on the...
