    Vader - 2013 Oscar Mike JKU - Trail Rig Build

    Sorry, I have been absent for a while. Had an incredible vacation for 2.5 weeks at the end of July. Was having some health issues, but it never hindered vacation. Went to the doctor when we got back home and it has been a whirlwind ever since. Was diagnosed with non-hodgkin's lymphoma and...

    Thoughts and opinions on Apex Performance Autolynx sway bar disconnects?

    I remember looking at these. I would also be curious to someone's experience with them.

    Vader - 2013 Oscar Mike JKU - Trail Rig Build

    Honestly, I went into this with hesitation. While researching you read the good and the bad, but I was scared that it probably wouldn't drive that well and it would be a complete dog even with the 5.38 gears. I have to say I am completely in shock. It drives better than any of my other Jeeps...

    Vader - 2013 Oscar Mike JKU - Trail Rig Build

    Ultimately, I would like to put a newer LT with a 10 speed. We will see if that part of the dream comes true. Although, I'm surprised it has come as far as it has already!

    Vader - 2013 Oscar Mike JKU - Trail Rig Build

    I don't have a good answer to be honest. What minimal time I have behind the wheel so far, I think I will be fine without high steer. Time will tell.

    Vader - 2013 Oscar Mike JKU - Trail Rig Build

    Ok, the wait is over. I finally got my rig back this weekend. It had quite the makeover while it was gone. A lot of parts which I have been accumulating over the last year finally got installed. I'll start with the lift. I had an EVO High Clearance Long Arm Pro Suspension installed. That...

    JK high school build

    You are off to a great start. Genright has high quality parts. You will be fine with Teraflex, or Metalcloak as well. However, you can't put on a Teraflex suspension while sporting that Metalcloak windshield banner! lol

    Project Detonator - My 2016 JKUR Hard Rock Edition

    I'll be able to give you a better answer on the blind spot after I drive it a few more times. The obvious answer is I lost some viewing area. However, I got to thinking, when I am out on an excursion, the back is packed to the ceiling. I can't see out of them anyway. I realize it's not...

    Project Detonator - My 2016 JKUR Hard Rock Edition

    Two years ago I was lucky enough to make the trip to Moab, UT. While there, we ran the Elephant Hill trail (still my favorite trail to this date). However, I also was extremely close on running out of gas. Foolishly, we were by ourselves and didn't have any extra gas. It wasn't long after...

    What jack for oversize tires?

    This is the one that I have. Scroll down a couple pictures to see it. https://wranglerjkforum.net/threads/project-detonator-my-2016-jkur-hard-rock-edition.27458/post-439021

    overdrive questions

    Are you running around 2800 rpm @ 70 mph? If so, you are in overdrive according to the charts.

    Best Tire Carrier To Get?

    I don't have anything negative to say about my CavFab tire carrier. It doesn't make any noise and holds my 37" tire with beadlock wheels without sagging up to this point. So far, so good.

    Running boards came with no instructions

    I agree. They should be installed with the body mount bolts.

    Dave's 2012 JK Call of Duty Edition

    Looks like you own a Rubicon. The Sway Bar button when pushed will dis-engage the front sway bar. This will give the front end of your vehicle more articulation/flexing allowing your tires to remain planted on the ground when on uneven terrain. This will help to a certain degree. When you...

    What did you do to your JK today?

    I have only been there once, but I absolutely loved it. We did Top of the World, Fins & Things, and Elephant Hill. My favorite of those was easily Elephant Hill. I loved that trail. It had a little bit of everything. I loved the scenery in Moab, it's breathtaking. If you are looking for an...

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Have fun in Moab. I can't wait to get back. I'll be there towards the end of July.

    Vader - 2013 Oscar Mike JKU - Trail Rig Build

    It's at least half alive! lol I went with 5.38 gears. That was the lowest ratio they offered. I would say the u-joints will be my weakest link, but I did up the size of them as well. 1350 front / 1410 rear. It has the stock transfer case. I plan on riding it out until something goes bad...

    Vader - 2013 Oscar Mike JKU - Trail Rig Build

    I'm not sure what else I can say about this build. Impractical, illogical, irresponsible...but oh my...WOW. #DreamJeep. Curiosity got the best of me tonight. I got to take my daughter to soccer practice. It just happens to go past the town in where my rig is undergoing major surgery. lol...
