Promising for sure if I can get low to mid teens pulling my 3600# camper, I will be ecstatic! Haven’t taken it on a long enough trip to even get an idea yet.

I have her back with a new transfer case but have not had an opportunity to try it out yet.

Well this is a very helpful thread. OP, I can't wait for a report when you've swapped. My JTRD with 37x13.50 STT pros does great with stock gears. It did lose3-5 mpg with the tires as expected. However, i took a really short trip with the new camper (23' 3700lbs) last weekend and it seemed to...

Yeah I’ve heard that it is tight when new and gets easier and I guess that’s why I kept going after the first trip. But when there were ZERO indicators of 2H, 4H N or 4 L and lockers wouldn’t engage. I got concerned it was a problem. Then I popped out on a cliff and that’s when I took it in...

I've had the EcoDiesel Rubicon for a month and a half. A couple weeks ago I went to PetersMill trail with the fam and it was the first time using 4WD. I thought it odd that I didn't see indicators of being in 4WD besides feeling it. At the end of the trail i couldn't get it out of 4 Low until...

I believe all the diesels have the wide HD axles with cast steel knuckles instead of aluminum like the gassers. 3.73 is just the gearing and has nothing to do with the rest of the axle. I haven't priced after market lockers, but I would assume that is a steep install price if not doing...

I understood the skid plate issues. But that was a great explanation, wish I had it a couple weeks ago.:LOL: Now I just need to figure out the fairlead space.

Ok So, I went with the Ebay mopar steelie. Install was fairly straight forward but the steel skid that came with the Rubi plastic doesn't work so I had to buy another (irritating but no biggie). Now I'm looking at a Smittybilt winch and wondering how the fairlead mounts up. Does it just bolt...

I have 37s but there is a sharp decrease in MPG above 60mph. At 75mph you are using a significant amount of fuel even going down hill. Pretty sure over 55, most of your power is used to overcome aerodynamics. Through the mountains of Western Maryland and WV I got 22+mpg going ~63mph average...

UPDATE: So I spoke with 3 different tire guys. None of them were excited about the beads for a few reasons, 1- they work best when tires are warmed up which may take 30-40 miles on a truck this light (esp with E rated tires) 2 - if the weight of the beads needs adjusting, there is no way to do...

Agreed, bolt-on bars are sacrificial and hopefully protect the winch, I'm actually thinking of having them welded on. But having the grill open is important as I will be pulling a camper with my ecodiesel and the only thing reducing the towing capacity is cooling, therefore I don't want to...

Thanks but not crazy about the design and it’s pretty expensive. But it is light AF.

Looking for the lightest, toughest winch bumper that keeps the winch below the grill. Between these 3... With the diesel engine and a 70-80lb winch, i'm really trying to keep bumper weight down. Leaning toward the RR HD for the bars, thicker steel and ability to mound shackles and highlift...

Will the Rubicon skid plate that came with the plastic bumper work with this bumper?

That's a great set up!! I had been waiting for the Maximus 3 Trifecta rack which was supposed to include a cover but they have been promising it for nearly 8-10 months.

Rear gate is available now. Does anyone know if these swing up gates interfere with awnings and if an Access toneau cover will work with the bed rack...

I also did the chalk test for tire inflation and have the E-rated tires at 31....might go up to 33, especially as it gets colder but don't think a couple psi is making this kind of vibration.

OK, I'm having the same issue. I have a 1.5" coild spacer up front and 3/4" in rear, the rest of suspension is stock. I have 37x13.5x17 cooper STT Pros and Dirty Life DT-2 wheels 17x9 -12offset. It definitely feels like a balancing issue but here's the thing, it has balancing beads. I...

Anyone have a link to the plastic buttons that fill the holes?
