What did you do to your JK today?

Yeah I was originally going to go with a Yukon kit that included new covers as well but I've read their QC has gone downhill a lot over the years. Weird, since I am under the impression Motive, Yukon, and Revolution all come out of the same factory in South Korea.

A lot of gear companies used to get their forgings from “Circle K”, but even then they were responsible for matching, finish work, etc. Nowadays, it seems to be a crapshoot (thanks Covid!)…

The last two sets from Yukon I got were either from India or Pakistan, and looked nothing like they used to. Historically the Yukons had nicely polished teeth, polished bearing journals, etc. The last three sets I’ve use (2 full sets and 1 rear-only) have been awful. I think I have a post on the TJ forum about the D30/8.8 I built for my old landscaper - they were complete garbage and thankfully he only drove it around in the desert, otherwise we would have swapped them out for a different set.

I go Revo now when I can, but would have no issues getting a set of Motives (and I had to for the 14B).

Installed a hood decal and a temporary/permanent front license plate.

If you're burning up resistors, it's likely that your fan motor is going, causing excessive amperage through the resistor pack...

Great photos btw!

Thanks .
Replaced blower motor a couple years ago when I did resistor .
Was fine till recently . So figured would switch out resistor first .
If blower motor runs fine and not turn off in about 30 mins than resistor . If problem persists will do blower motor again .
