    We have the AEV lift on one JK and two JKU’s and have been very happy with it. Ride is better than the stock setup. My daughter’s JK is all stock except for the lift and the 35” tires.

    Thoughts about Gladiator towing capacity

    Long story short we are sort of keeping the JKUR, our 18 year old daughter is buying it from us. No we aren’t making a profit or anything just feel they need to earn and work for these types of things. There is no way she would be able to get something like the JK for what we are doing...

    Thoughts about Gladiator towing capacity

    Didn’t think I’d go this route. After talking to a few people and one guy who mods and works on 4’s we ended up getting a Gladiator yesterday. It’s a 2021 with 31K miles. It has the tow package, it’s clean. Outside of the tow package it’s pretty basic down to manual windows and door locks...

    Soft top downsides?

    I switched my hard top to a soft top and love it! With the tradional soft top there are some downsides. In my opinion the plastic windows become faded and more difficult to see out of. The zipping and unzipping the rear to access the “trunk” is inconvenient. I ended up going with the...

    What did you do to your JK today?

    I cut allen key down to fit in the little opening. It would be nice if it screwed in on the other side.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Yesterday picked up the wife’s Jeep finally from the clockspring being replaced. First dealer wanted us to authorize up to $800 for diagnostic said forget it. Second dealer said $235 for diagnostic but if clockspring no charge. They covered it all under the extended warranty. But they did...

    Throwing ABS codes

    To help confirm an issue you can use JScan and monitor each wheel speed sensor and see if any drop to “0” and if they do it confirms an issue with the sensor, wiring, etc.

    GPS, whats cool or new?

    I used to use Gaia but switch to OnX and very happy with it. User friendly, some trails are already shown and by difficultly rating etc. Maps can be viewed on CarPlay and works well.

    AEV 2.5” DualSport Review

    You should be fine with the stock driveshafts. We do not have any issues. Since I wrote this I’ve installed the same loft on my daughter’s JK. They each have been dependable, nice ride and just overall a good setup. I don’t have any complaints and would not hesitate to install it on another...

    What did you do to your JK today?

    It runs on the stock power / wires? I’ve heard some horns require a larger wire and more power.

    Thoughts about Gladiator towing capacity

    Thanks for the input. Some good thoughts on it. Not knowing much about the Gladiator I’d guess it would be slow towing that much. But maybe the 8 speed makes the difference.

    Thoughts about Gladiator towing capacity

    This year we bought an A-Frame pop up trailer to tow behind the JK or LJR. Recently been toying with the idea of getting an older truck to tow it instead. Nether the JK or LJR has a ton of power, one reason @Dirty Dog got the 392. No desire to get a Gladiator, one that isn’t an older truck...

    Rancho RS5000x Dilemma

    I am thinking the same as @RubiRecon the washers and bushing looks off. What air pressure are you using? For 35” might want to try around 30psi.

    5 quarts of oil?

    Did you check before or after you started it? The new filter will will hold some oil so need to start her up for a couple if minutes then let it sit for a couple of minutes and recheck it.

    B1B02 is this due to clockspring?

    Actually after second look the OEM are only for right hand drives.

    B1B02 is this due to clockspring?

    The airbag recalls were done already. So I am hoping that is not the issue. I am probably going just going to move forward a replace the clockspring. Probably will go the OEM, but the cost differences are a fair amount compared to aftermarket.

    B1B02 is this due to clockspring?

    Does anyone know if code B1B02 indicates a bad clockspring? All the code description states is “driver open circuit”. I know there is an extended warranty on the clockspring. Problem is I made an appointment at the dealer to have it looked at. My wife takes it in the next thing I know she...

    Slop between bell housing and starter

    It has been a while but I think on my YJ the starter only had holes the bolts went through. Then treaded to the engine block.
