    Stock wheels

    I got the spacers put on yesterday. I haven't had a chance to drive my Jeep yet. I have to put 50 to 100 miles on it and re-check the torque on the spacer lug nuts. It's hard to tell a big difference in the pics, but I like the result quite a bit. Before. After. I also washed and waxed it...

    Stock wheels

    @MacGuyver, thanks for the advice and for looking out for others (in this case, me). Similar to what you said, except that I'm being willing to run spacers while you're not - my biggest points of care with spacers are to buy quality ones. Follow the instructions on the install. Don't skip out on...

    Power drain on 08 Jk x

    Bummer of a problem. It sounds like you’ve been very thorough. I didn’t realize based on your first post that you had checked it out so well. Hopefully someone with some deeper experience can chime in here. At this point all that I can offer is moral support. Good luck, mate.

    Power drain on 08 Jk x

    This is not my area of expertise, but I always try to start with the simple things first. In the same line of thinking as your battery check, how old is your battery? Is it lead acid or Agm? I have had agm batteries that act up and seem to be good when they get drained and are going out. If you...

    Gas Mileage...don't laugh

    Good on removing the decals. They cause major drag for sure. On the other side of the coin - I don't know what this will do for gas mileage, but the HP gains are real.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Today I picked up a soft top from Facebook marketplace. I'm not a fan of FB, but there are good deals on there for sure. I think I might run the soft top for a month or two before winter settles in. @Largehit71 I'm in the market for a head unit too. Let us know if you find anything good. I'll...

    Just some old pics I thought you might like.

    @Runon4s, where did you pull these from? They are super cool. I might see if I can find some of these in quality high enough to print and frame a few for my garage.

    Anyone know what this little black box is?

    I was hoping this would be an ejection seat button or for rocket launchers, but an ESP kill switch is cool too.

    6X6 Jeep

    I wonder if there’s a hot tub under that tonneau cover.

    Remote starter question

    Hey @ErnDog, it's hard to tell about your current setup from your post. Do you have the factory keyless entry system on your JK? If you do, is your fob aftermarket, or do you not have a fob at all? Do you have power locks and windows?

    Spacers to full size spring

    If you haven't read it, check out this thread that started in August. https://wranglerjkforum.net/threads/new-lift.29157/ Maybe @BLACKJKU can give some extra advice here, but I wouldn't just put 3.5 coils on my jeep without making "sure it has everything needed, adjustable control arms front...

    Stock wheels

    Paint is always an option for wheels, but in most cases you have to take your time with prep, good coats, and not rushing things if you want the finish to look good and to last. Chris Fix gets a pretty good result with his steel wheels video on youtube. It's definitely worth a watch. I like...

    New JK

    Hey Tony, I just made the same switch, from a 98 TJ to a 2008 JK. So far the acceleration in the 3.8 has felt kind of normal to me, but I was used to the three-speed auto, mated to the 4.0 in my TJ. I keep my standards low so that I'm not disappointed. I'm liking the JK a lot so far. Good to see...

    Gas Mileage...don't laugh

    It doesn't sound like you're too far off the mark for gas mileage. I have a 2008, 3.8l, auto trans, 33 BFG all terrains. I run them around 33 psi cold. My average is just above 16 mpg with mostly city driving. That's based on what the dash gauge tells me. My Sahara has 3.73 gears, no armor, hard...

    Hello from Colorado.

    Hey There. My name is Ryan and I live in Colorado. I just sold my 1998 TJ yesterday. It was a sad moment, but I needed a bigger vehicle. My kids are getting older and my oldest will be driving soon. The bright spot for me is that I recently picked up a mostly stock, 2008 Saraha 4 door. I'm...

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Nothing major, but I set up a wireless Qi charger from Sam's club. The kit was only 35 dollars. It comes with the option to mount to your vent, windshield, or dash. When you set your phone in and it starts to charge it closes the clamps automatically to keep the phone in place. Just thought I'd...
