Rubicon, 8 speed auto, LEDs, 8.4” U Connect Radio, try to find a used Launch Edition, they’re loaded.
Seriously though, when buying used go for the most expensive options, the depreciation helps to swallow a bit.
I ran full articulation joints on our JKR, I’ll Never do that again! Street ability just isn’t there. A friend with a V8 JKU with all the goodies runs Teraflex Alpines, rubber joints. Whatever control arms I go with will have rubber joints. Just an FYI!
As a lifelong Huge fan of the early Bronco, I’m impressed with the offerings from the Blue Oval team. That said, no Broncos were on the beach in Normandy France! It’s Mustang vs Camero. Fords wanting a piece of the Jeep Market and there going to get it, it’s going to have problems, what new...
Yes, me too, I ordered KMC’ (great offset) and they only had 3, so he looked to find something in stock, this was my 3rd option. Tires too, wanted Maxxis AT’s but had to go with General ATX’s. We have been waiting Months to buy wheels. With all this crap going on we may be stuck with the 35” BFGs.
Nope, they were out of stock on 1 wheel and all the tires. I decided to go with Rhino Primm in Candy Red with 37/12.5/17 General ATX’s.
we spent over an hour texting back and forth till I found something I liked. Offset is only 0, really wanted +10 or more. We’ll see.
Most of my family is enjoying the snow in Texas around San Antonio and North West, we’re enjoying the mid 60’s and rising here in AZ. It’s just weather, changes all the time. Like AZJT said. Ask me in June or July, double what it was today.
Dodge bought back my 2001 2500 diesel in 1999. It was an Early 2001 with turbo issues and brake/steering issues (brakes and steering used the same pump). I screwed myself and got out with nothing. I bought another in 2005 and put 235,000 miles on it with oil changes, 2 clutches and a water pump...
With a 12.5” width, 8-11 is most likely the recommended. 10 is ideal most of us put them on 9’s cause they’re what’s out there. If your running bead locks you might find some 10”
Not what the wife wanted, those were out of stock, along with the tires. So ordered a set of Black Rhino Primm in Candy Red 0 offset and 17/12.5/37 General ATX’s. Should look something like this on the wife’s Black Launch with 1 1/2” leveling spacers
Added a catch can. If I had to do it again, I would have bought a mishimoto, I have some changes to make to clean it up but it works. I was getting mild spark knock due to oil vapor, it’s now gone.
My 150K mile JK upper manifold looked Horrible when I pulled it for plugs and packs at 110K, cleaned the upper. Then I replaced the oil cooler at 150k, the lower was 10x as bad as the upper, I cleaned the crap out and replaced the PCV valve. I’m putting catch cans in my JK and JT. The cleaner I...
BFG KO2 Load Range C. In 130,000 miles, we went through 1 set and the second set, still in great shape, are on the JTR now. Lots of wheeling in rocks sand and snow Zero issues. You will Not be dissatisfied with them 35/12.5/17 first set were E rated yuck, this set is C and the ride is smooth...
After much debate and searching, my wife and I have decided on wheels and tires for our 2020 Launch. When we bought her, we had our JKU’s BFG KO2 and black worn out wheels swapped on. Due to the pandemic, none of the red wheels we wanted have been available. So, she decided on XD’s with the red...
Great mods and details. Good looking Gladiator. A friend put a 5.3 in his JKU, when we traded our JKU for the JTR I swore I’d supercharge it immediately. It’s been almost 4 months on 35’s and about to 37 it. We wheel (in my 13 JKR) around Payson-Sedona all the time, I’ll keep my eyes on here and...
We went and played in the snow, just North of Pine, AZ. The 4WD was flawless, it was near white out conditions on the road back and she was sure footed as a goat.
Well, they wanted to give me a few dollars back for the ill-fitting tube steps. I didn’t accept the offer and requested a refund. Haven’t heard anything, complete radio silence! Don’t recommend doing business with them at all.
