  1. Help with purchase decisions

    I went with Sport S, and it sounds like you may be in the same boat. Don't quote me on this one but I believe the base sport might not even have power windows? The "S" upgrade definitely does though, plus I wanted to get the axles that came with the max tow package. I hate technology in cars...
  2. Halogen to led

    Dumb question....open to insults...bring it on. haha I have a tazer mini jl already and i'm getting ready to make some changes for the larger tires i just installed. I know the mini can flash for LED swaps.....but my question is-WHY!? haha. What exactly do we need to change in the computer...
  3. SHOW ME YOUR WHEELS!

    35x12.50-17. Wheel is KMC KM717 17x8.5 with +18 offset. I was actually expecting it to stick out further than this so I'm surprised after all the tire and wheel calculators i used to confirm positioning, plus factoring in the supposed "wider max tow axles"....i see no difference. Either way...
  4. STING GRAY Gladiator JT Club

    They do stick out, but only by maybe 0.5" at the most. +18 offset.
  5. STING GRAY Gladiator JT Club

    A few different angles before and after. Sport S with max tow, trimmed front fender flare extension. KMC Km717 wrapped in BFG KO2 in 35x12.50-17. Stock suspension(for now) in these pics.
  6. Pictures of 33s and 35s

    KMC wheels wrapped in 35x12.50-17. Otherwise stock Sport S with max tow axles.
  7. SHOW ME YOUR WHEELS!

    Brand: KMC. Wheel name: KM717 (at least thats the only name I saw when selecting it). 17x8.5 +18 offset.
  8. Recommended SERVICE dealers in NE area

    Radio shorted out and rebooted, got something going on under the hood, hoping it's just a noisy belt/pully somewhere, but put my ear closer to the valve covers while trying to track the location better. Have a clunk in the rear when rolling slow over speed bumps, hoping that's just an...
  9. Recommended SERVICE dealers in NE area

    Good morning all, I saw the thread for sales, figured since i'm currently battling HORRIBLE Jeep dealers regarding service, we could start a list for anyone looking. Post up if you have had positive experiences for service, be it warranty issues, or routine maintenance. I'll start off by...
  10. Let's talk about winter issues

    Agreed in most of your winter related issues that a lot of that will happen with any vehicle. I am curious however, with all the "hybrid" spray waxes and what not, would it help to spray all the weather stripping all over? Not so much an issue as little annoying things I've noticed, but when...
  11. Patagonia MTs or Interco TrXus MT?

    I have owned the Trxus on one of my XJs. Not sure where you heard it's quiet for the first 20k miles. It will sing on the highway from new. Traction wise it was amazing, but for a daily driver....never again. Lol. I can't speak for the Patagonia. Really depends on what kind of trails...
  12. JLR wheels on JTR

    The only time i've ever seen a wheel fail, is when someone slammed into a pot hole on the highway during a new england winter. The hole was about 2' in diameter and roughly 8" deep. The state ended up paying for the replacement rim. But yea, it cracked in three separate locations all the way...
  13. Specific pic request and wheel offset info...

    Thanks for the info everyone! Especially the pics provided for reference! That confirms my question. I found a reasonable looking wheel (ricey looking as it may be...at least it's black so it won't stand out that much-haha), plus i was about to wrap my stock sport rim in a 35 and even thought...
  14. Specific pic request and wheel offset info...

    Hi all. After days of searching and learning and reading, i'm throwing in the towel and turning here for some assistance. I've found online tire calculators to give me dimensions and differences regarding wheel offset and how much further out a tire will stick from the existing location, and...
  15. 35's, no lift?

    What backspace and offset when you had this set up? Happen to have a picture? Did you do anything with shocks, LCA's or end links with the 2" up front?
  16. 35's, no lift?

    I haven't seen a definite answer on this yet either....and I have been searching and reading for months. Some say yes, some say no. I think the people that say 35's don't rub while flexing on stock Sport suspension(and flares) just aren't wheeling hard enough. If 35's don't rub on stock sport...
  17. Anyone in here?

    I'm hoping to end up meeting some people that wheel in Mass, and NH areas so I can double my trips, some weekends to Rausch Creek, other weekends true north. haha. I'll keep updating, and if any of you get in touch with anyone else with a bit more trail experience, post up too. Anyone in...
  18. Interior Rattle help

    Do service depts actually work on interior rattles under warranty? (I.E. free of charge?) I have a similar rattle but only occurs when hitting a series of bumps, but more of a concern is what sounds like a friggin marble rolling around inside the dash. Can't wait to find out what nut or bolt...
  19. Anyone in here?

    I found a few local groups on FB, I'll post up there to see if there's any experienced people willing to guide a stock friendly run. Bacon, I'd recommend bringing it stock so you can see what it can and can't do as-is. I always had more fun seeing the huge differences during my builds by...
  20. Issues right out of the dealership parking lot

    Got my truck back tonight. Long story short after hearing a very sincere tone from the service dept whome i do not blame at all, absolutely nothing was accomplished. I'm too let down and disappointed to go into detail, especially since apparently the majority aren't even having any issues, so...
