Welcome!

I had to sync a new phone with the Uconnect yesterday. Is it a just a totally ridiculous system or am I a dumb user? The only way I could find to pair phone was though voice commands. I had forgotten that was the case back when I bought this vehicle and paired the phone I had at the time...

Great color! I don't think I have seen that before.

It's supposed to be a light bronze for the 75 Anniversary package but it does take on a khaki-ish hue at times. Grille, wheels, bumpers, and some interior trim. Here is a bit better pic:

This is the RockHard bar for a JK. It was ~$150 when I purchased it last year:

Sounds good!

I haven't seen this one before. I have a similar one called "Roll 'N Jack" and it works well. Give it a try. I'm sure you could sell it if you don't like it for some reason.

Unless he pulled the lower end apart and inspected the rod bearings there would really be no way of assessing their health completely. Unfortunately, those can tolerate some abuse throughout their life but can also let loose without warning. Your Jeep isn't what I would considet low mileage...

I'm no 3.8L expert but those pressure observations seem really low to me. What is your initial cold startup pressure? Should be 40psi or higher.

The more I stare at the pics that's the conclusion I come to as well!

I have always liked the look of the 392 wheels. The non-recon wheels are the same specs as our JK wheels (except for the lug holes). Recently a set popped up on Marketplace nearby with 285/70R17 BFG ATs. These seem like they would match the trim color on my 75th anniversary nicely. I'm...

Cool! Glad they were able to find it!!

It's not a matter of having taken care of your engine. That's why you are at 200k. Passenger car engines are engineered to a finite reasonable life - typically 150k. So you have already bought yourself an extra 50k with good maintenance. That's not to say that you couldn't go farther...

Thx, but does it shut off when you you turn the key back to "off" without having started the engine?

After you pull the fuse for the fuel pump and the engine stops what then? You put the fuse back in at some point. Does the fuel pump have power before you put the key in the ignition?? It shouldn't... There very well may be multiple things happening here, but I would start with...

I would love to hear some sound clips!

Facebook Marketplace. Price them fairly and they should go quickly.

Welcome. I currently have 255/75R17 BFG K03 A/Ts (~32") and they have been a good all around tire. When it comes time for new tires I'll probably look at Falken Wildpeaks, too ..

That last drive was probably the proverbial nail in the coffin... When you were driving the lugs were loaded and at a higher temp so you didn't notice anything abnormal. When you stopped you removed the dynamic load, and everything cooled a bit (relatively speaking). Start moving again and...

Welcome and congrats on the new ride!!
