I don't recall. I had been installing a part onto the bed rack with the back end in the garage, so I think I had just pulled forward and parked like that--so in the "ready to drive away" position, goddammit.
Exactly correct. I did not have such an add-on. At least I had the “depreciation clause delete”.
I have every receipt and photos of everything installed—as I did them or just afterward. If that doesn’t help me this time, well… it will be done as you described, next time—frequent updates to my...
In the early hours of Jan 3, my much-loved 2022 JT Rubicon Diesel was stolen from my driveway here in Ottawa. It was locked and alarmed (factory) and all that, but the perps very likely had cloned my key fob. I had no idea that this was a thing that, now having read all about it, is extremely...
Very good points. I actually do challenging stuff but definitely take my time and pick the lines well. But I’m going to save myself the trouble and cancel the 5” kit and 40s. I can always upgrade someday.
Hmm. Now rethinking this build! Talked with some wheeling buddies after I posted, and they also think it’s pretty iffy with 40s. Not keen to spend so much more for an axle swap, so might just lower my sights and stick with the setup I know that works—37s and 4” lift. Sadly the drive shaft is...
Question about wheeling 40s with stock Rubi axles:
I do a fair amount of rock crawling (as opposed to overlanding or mud-bogging). My last rig was a 2020 JLUR (2L) on 37s and never had even a hint of an issue.
I’ve got a 2022 JTRD coming to me in just over a week. I’ve ordered a Fabtech 5”...
I had the red one. Nicely compact but pain in the butt when you wanted to lock/unlock the console or glove box. And how many times did I drop it and the key fell out? Many. Think I’ll stick with the factory fob when I get my JT in a few weeks.
That’s one thing I’m looking forward to—everything was easy in my 2020 JLUR after I did all the mods—not a brag, just a sad fact. Can’t wait to feel that thrill of the challenge in finding the best line and trying not to destroy my tail end! Picking up my 2022 JTRD in a few weeks.
