  1. TPMS not working but not sender in tire

    That’s wild. That’s seems like a correlation/causation that would take most ppl a long time to put together. What’s the test for that remote start antenna?
  2. Some Basic Tire Physics

    And losses in energy to go back to shape. Seems like there would be something to explain why a laden wheel barrel pushes easier with more tire pressure. I like your formulas, I really do. All other things equal, I would expect a softer sidewall to get lower mpgs, and to your point, I agree that...
  3. Jeepin with Judd in Florida

    Will there be any drinking, fighting, or ducking?
  4. Some Basic Tire Physics

    Alright, I’ll bite. Mr @Flanders, your formulas don’t account for the changes in the contact patch, correct? Is there a website/reference that would include that, and/or something to give the common driver a way to tell how much their mileage may change from one tire to the next? ( these silly...
  5. Stock Mojave - Will Geo brackets be too much correction?

    Check alignment as well? I’m assuming that you’re not running any kind of cap on the bed?
  6. Adding locker(s) to a Sport! Should I keep the factory LSD and add only a front locker, or full lockers all the way around?

    For the front : Air locker would be stronger, E-locker might be more convenient. tires might be a good starting point, depending on whether you want flotation, or to cut through for traction below. Looks like you might be running 35ā€ MT? Are they digging too quickly for your needs?
  7. Missouri JT GLadiator Owners - We are also Midwest

    Thank you; weā€˜ll add that to the future trail list!
  8. Mirrors for doors off - recommendations?

    Jpeggz or kikbax to include a footrest. You can do mirrors only, but you’ll likely add footpegs after that.
  9. Should I switch from a JL 4xe to a JT Mojave?

    Does anyone ever put bigger/heavIer tires on a 4xe?
  10. Should I switch from a JL 4xe to a JT Mojave?

    We have a JTM, and love doing some mild off roading. We also have a gas getter for local runs ( mainly being an Uber for our kids ). When shopping around, we briefly looked at some 4xe, and I kind of regret not test driving one. I would imagine that a 4xe with doors off would be quite nice...
  11. Should I switch from a JL 4xe to a JT Mojave?

    Is that just the way it is, or is it something that a tazer/mod could help with in 2hi?
  12. Basics for keeping in my wife's JLU

    That’s what she said? ;-) This caught my eye ( no pun intended ), for that very reason, and and it looks like almost any soft shackle would fit through that eyelet. It just looks like a 1-trick pony to me.
  13. So this happened now need replacement grill

    Sounds like she’s one of the good ones.
  14. Basics for keeping in my wife's JLU

    Understood, and that’s how I read your original post. I was just trying to add some further concerns, and think outside the box. It would be my luck, that I plan for the slow & steady pull, and then if that didn’t work, someone would quickly escalate to a full kinetic recovery. I’m super...
  15. O

    Only if you let some know about your efficiencies.
  16. So this happened now need replacement grill

    Wow. Hope no one was hurt, sorry for the truck, good luck on the fixes. Maybe encourage/remind the wife to give more room between her and the vehicles in front? If not, I see a lot of window replacements in your future.
  17. Basics for keeping in my wife's JLU

    @ShadowsPapa the only other thing that I can think of, is to look at the system as a whole, as a set of links, and carefully select the weak point in the recovery system. i know we want something that’ll work, and not fail, but in the event that something does fail, what would you want it to...
  18. Basics for keeping in my wife's JLU

    Well, they come in different sizes; would a soft shackle that’s strong enough for a vehicle recovery go through that hole, or would you have to put a hard shackle in the system?
  19. Basics for keeping in my wife's JLU

    I wish more ppl were neighborly like this; in todays state of litigation, I would also urge you to be familiar with legal risks. You’re in Iowa, and I’m in MO. From my latest finds in MO, if a vehicle recovery goes bad, and I attached equipment to their vehicle, they can sue me ( it’s dumb )...
