  1. Oil Capacity - This is Strange?

    Thank you for the quick and detailed response. I will keep er' at 5-quarts. Appreciate it.
  2. Oil Capacity - This is Strange?

    On the 3.6L V6, how much oil goes in a 2021 JT? On my 2018 Rubicon JLU, I always used 5.7 quarts. I assumed that this was the same on my 2021 JT with the 3.6L V6 however, the owner's manual says "5-quarts" (picture below). I just changed the oil/filter and added 5-quarts of oil, then started it...
  3. Floor Jack for Lifted Jeeps

    When installing my lift and other tires on/off adventures in my suburban, middle-class garage, I quickly realized that my low-profile Harbor Freight floor jack was not up for the task. I'm up to three pieces of 2x4 to shim enough to get any lift on the frame. OSHA compliant? Not even close! I...
  4. Lower Control Arm Rubbin'

    Gents - cool your guns! This was NOT meant to be yet another discussion (or..:punch:) on backspacing, offset, or any other of the witchcraft that comes with calculating wheels! Mostly I started this discussion to bring awareness to anyone who may be considering 35's on stock wheels and to...
  5. Lower Control Arm Rubbin'

    There is no argument here at all.
  6. Factory Rolling Tonneau - Water Pooling?

    Yep, same here. Even froze once so I had ice-frisbees that looked like throwing stars at the cars driving behind me! I'm sure they were happy.
  7. Anyone Running Quadratec Rubicon Xtreme Wheels?

    I'm looking at these 17x9 wheels with 4.75" of backspacing from Qtec. Just curious if anyone here has these and if so, do you like them?
  8. Lower Control Arm Rubbin'

    I thought a +12 would put the inner lip of the wheel closer to the inside and closer to the LCA? I was thinking a -12 to push the wheel lip away from the LCA. Am I incorrect on this (still trying to figure out offset things)?
  9. Lower Control Arm Rubbin'

    Gotta 21 Willys with a 2" spacer lift and 315/70-17 (almost 35's) tires. When I put it all together I had 1 3/4" wheel spacers and had no rubbing anywhere. But, I'm not a huge fan of spacers and worried that they may break, so I took them off just to see if I could drive without them. Mostly no...
  10. Anyone running 35s on stock wheels without issues?

    No, I had the wheel spacers on at the same time as the bigger tires. I doubt they would rub on street driving.
  11. Anyone running 35s on stock wheels without issues?

    With wheel spacers. But, I plan to get wider wheels and ditch the spacers.
  12. Anyone running 35s on stock wheels without issues?

    I have a lease too and was worried about crazy modifications. I went with the Iron Rock, 2" spacer lift, 35"s (well...actually like 34.5"), and some wheel spacers. All of these items will not void your warranty and are all easily taken off in 3-years when my lease is up. My thought was: half of...
  13. Anyone running 35s on stock wheels without issues?

    No, I did everything at the same time.
  14. Iron Rock lift kit

    I installed this kit. No problems, the instructions are a bit lacking, but it's a pretty easy lift to install so it wasn't a big deal. Some advice: make sure you loosen the upper/lower control arms on the frame and axle, especially in the rear axle. This will drop the axle enough to slide the...
  15. Anyone running 35s on stock wheels without issues?

    Zero rub issues. I have this same combination on my 21' Willys.
  16. Jeep sucks.... I have no idea how some of you have owned so many

    Jeeps are like your kids; yeah, there are some flaws, but you love them anyway. And just like kids have, I hope your temper tantrum is over and you were able to find some solace. Sounds like you are not Jeep-worthy anyway, so we (the collective Jeep owners) probably are glad you are leaving us...
  17. RockTrix Rims

    I too have been talking with their customer service and asking them some questions. So far they are very responsive and have answered all of my questions. On a Wrangler forum, I found some people saying that the Rock Trix RT105 wheels are not very strong. I asked Rock Trix about this and this...
  18. New JTRD, steering wheel off center and dead spot...

    Whoa - 29psi? I have Ridge Grapplers and with the E-rating, the max PSI is 65 so running at 29psi. seems way too low. Doesn't it bounce like Tigger at 29psi? Being that this is a hybrid tire, I thought you were supposed to run them a bit higher on the street to keep the contact patch in the...
  19. Only three pet peeves about my Gladiator Sport

    I have a few comments on this, and please don't take them as being a smart a$$: 1.) Is the "dirty streak" always happening, or just when your Jeep is dirty then it rains? 2.) Why are you opening your windows in the rain? :LOL: 3.) I just looked at mine (picture below - excuse the dirty Jeep, it...
