    Armorlite carpeting

    Did you get an email from Armorlite? Looks like they're coming out with a kit (pre-orders start tomorrow) for the rear wheel section.

    2010 JK Sport won't start, won't crank, won't even click

    I think your only option is to buy the housing. https://www.mymoparparts.com/oem-parts/mopar-steering-column-lock-housing-68054822ab

    What improvements can I make to drive my JK on the beach sand?

    Sure, glad to help. Most sites make it pretty easy. You can just search by make/model/year. I think the D30 for all JK's are the same. If a shop is doing the install for you I'm sure they can figure out the parts you need.

    Rhino liner on running boards

    Have seen some Raptor liner used. Hell I've seen videos of the entire vehicle done in Raptor liner. It's popular for the fenders too.

    2009 jk leaking coolant

    That's your classic 4666044BB. If you get a non-OEM pump, get the good gasket. 4666068AC is the gasket. It's a classic.

    Leveling kit with new shocks

    If you just want a little lift and level without doing any offroad stuff, a spacer lift is the thing to do. Something like this where the front is lifted with spacers more than the rear: https://www.extremeterrain.com/teraflex-leveling-kit-jk-1155200.html

    What improvements can I make to drive my JK on the beach sand?

    I had Trutracs installed on my '07 front and rear D30/D44 just like you.....although mine is a 3.8 engine with automatic. They're great on snow/sand/gravel etc. They replace the existing carrier you have, and you could re-use your gears or get new ones. Shouldn't cost more in labor if a...

    Looking for opinions on a 2010 JK Sport

    Other than what you've posted so far, what have you heard? Most of the complaints I've seen are from people who aren't very mechanically inclined (no shame in that we can't know everything), put cheap and/or incomplete mods on, or their expectations are for a luxury vehicle. A good example...

    Looking for opinions on a 2010 JK Sport

    Are you sure that was an '09 that had engine recalls? I couldn't find anything on 3.8 recalls but might have missed something. Only recalls for 07-11's were mostly air bags. The 2012 pentastar 3.6 had a bunch of recalls due to valve seat problems requiring head replacement though. Most...

    Armorlite carpeting

    One of my favorite mods too. Love it. Only annoying thing is getting access to rear bolts for front seats.

    Armorlite carpeting

    When you add up the price of a replacement carpet and heavy duty floor liners, it's not much more. You don't need floor liners to protect the Armorlite flooring. In fact, they tell you not to use floor liners with it. Not to mention it's not going to get wet and stink, and the convenience...

    Brand New Vibration 2015 JKU Altitude

    Best thing to do is check the fluid after it's warmed up, and check it with it in drive (with someone who trusts you lol). Pump isn't engaged unless it's in gear. Another possibility to check into is the transmission mount. Just like a motor mount, they can go bad.

    Unofficial word: 3.6 dropping like flies

    Yup mine was a rescue Jeep. Even after replacing a ton of gaskets, seals, bumpers, random parts, suspension, regearing, entire steering system, flooring system etc I still paid less. I could put a new 3.8 and trans in it and still pay less than a newer model.....and I have brand new better...

    JK Radio Upgrade - Experience with Insane Audio?

    Exactly. One thing I do trust when deciding to buy something are Jeep video channels/forums that have a reputation to protect. That's usually the first place I go looking....so the OP is doin' it right. It's another reason I try to buy from US companies even though it costs a bit more...

    2.5” AEV Lift Install

    Yeah on stands is fine since it's the same thing really. The full weight of the vehicle on the axle is the point, which is the same as tires on. I usually put the tires back on though for stuff like that just to make sure it's more safe. Some of the suspension components are like 125...

    Hm I don't remember having any issues. If I don't get too large a honey-do list tomorrow I'll take a look.
