Im really starting to think that the black coloring is how its supposed to look. After see that thread, and changing mine and my wifes JLUs…they all seem to look the same

There are two Mopar replacements. One is white and the other is black right out of the box.

When I pulled mine it was not dirty at all, but was black like this. Wondering if Toledo is using them interchangeably.

Installed a Fox ATS 2.0 steering stabilizer.

Notice a difference?

Nice! How do you like those vertex coil overs?…not many real reviews on those from what I searched.

I can tell you this, Yesterday I took her out on a trail down the street form my house, and the adjustments to the Vertex are very noticeable. I am very happy with everything. I think I will have to re-gear, as I noticed a big hit so far in MPG.

That’s good to hear. Hopefully they hold up well over time too.

Added GoRhino RB 20 Running Boards in the Bedliner finish option

Added KC's daylighters to the sport bar

Brings me back to the early 80's. Love the look.

Overall, pretty happy with it. In retrospect, I'm running the adjustable one close enough to center (9 from stiffest) that I'd probably be just as happy with the cheaper non-adjustable one. I guess if I change tires or add a lift in the future I can see myself re-adjusting it.

For me, I was expecting a larger difference from fully soft and fully stiff. The bigger difference (which is the reason that its worth it to me) was how much it reduced the center play in the steering wheel while driving. Mine wasn't bad before (felt better than all the ones I test drove before purchasing) but it did make a noticeable difference to where minor adjustments in the ~ -5 to +5 degree range on the steering wheel feel more immediate.

Also, when I say play, it's hard to describe. I don't really want to call it a dead spot because it isn't. With everything stock, if you make a minor adjustment, even small, the vehicle will slowly slightly drift towards that direction. It's so minor though that I think many times it is mistaken for a dead spot when it isn't. What the stabilizer seemed to do for me was reduced that "play" area so that those minute changes are felt more immediately/significantly. My wife, who typically doesn't notice these changes as much, also commented that it seemed to be easier to drive on the highway this last windy weekend.

Sooo, obligatory didn't do this today, but the other day: swapped tires to 37 KO2s!

Planning a lift later this weekend.

I'm debating on getting what you have or the other thru shaft with out adjustment. Thanks for your insight.
