turns out I have a JL mini and it seems to work just fine. Given the last update was in August, I'm thinking it was put on by the shop that had to replace my front axle after a crash. Maybe they had to use it to reconfigure something? Guess I can return my other stuff I was going to use with...
So I was about to run JScan to fix my tire size after putting on 35s. So I look under the dash to install the hardware and violá! I find this little guy under there.
I’ve had this truck since mile 11, and over 2.5 years. I have no idea how this got there. But I would like to use it since I have...
Just mounted nitto ridge grapplers 35x12.5 on stock wheels on my Rubicon with stock suspension.
I do have some rubbing in front against the fender liner when fully turned on a bump or slightly off camber. Will be doing some cutting this weekend.
Do you need longer springs with the HD rear springs if you have a constant load on the bed? Right now I have stock suspension on my JTR, OEM steel front bumper and winch so it had a fair amount of rake pre camper. I recently added an Ovrlnd pop-up camper on the bed, so it's a constant 300lbs...
I have the same dilemma when I added a pop-up camper to mine recently. The camper is light, but once loaded for a trip there is sag, and I just added 35s and i'm getting some rubbing now.
Since you have a front leveling kit, why wouldn't just adding the HD rear springs be enough? Seems like it...
For sale is a used set of KB Voodoo Hi-Rise Crossbars. comes with hardware to mount using the Trail Rail bed mounting system. Shows signs of use but not abuse. Used it to carry a bike rack, traction boards, my Gazelle tent, a basket, and Hi-lift. Works with a roll up tonneau cover. The link...
This happened to me recently for the 2nd time in 2 years. CEL started flashing, but before I could pull into a safe spot, it stopped. It also didn't store, so it looks like nothing happened. I'm going to think it was a single misfire. Kind of like a single, out of sync heartbeat, that corrects...
So this is what my friend thought the half-rack over the freedom panels on his gladiator.
“Although I like the looks and versatility, I don’t think I’d do it again. Because it’s made for the rear 1/2 and the front 1/2 of the JT slightly tapers, I had to do a lot of cutting and notching to...
I was just on a trip with a guy who I think had that half-rack on his rig sitting in front of his Alu-Cab. I emailed him to see if that was the case. I'll let you know what he says when he gets back to me.
The only significant cons are probably cost and weight. Bigger tires cost more money, and weigh more. The Rubicon was designed to go up to 35s with little to no mods needed. Just don't get too wide of a tire for the OEM wheels or you might get some rubbing at full flex.
Not sure why, but then I see people put 40s on their jeeps that will never see dirt, or they aren't doing anything remotely challenging that stock 33s couldn't do. Not my jam, not my money.
Maybe it's where you live. I just bought out the lease for my JTR. I think they valued it around $52K, I payed $48K in 2020, MSRP was $56K, the residual was $36K, and it had all the options I wanted because I ordered it that way.
That said, I never bought it as a resale investment. As long as...
2.5 years, 27k miles, I just bought out the lease, so it’s like buying it again but now I can “personalize” it. About to drop a pop-up camper on it, so yeah I’m making the investment. I had my last truck 20 years, hoping to have this for as long if not longer.
