Jeep is already planning on a hybrid version this year. I doubt they would invest in a V8 version when things are already more compact and efficient. Listen, I wished they did a V8 with a 6 speed, that would be amazing. The reality is that it's a mid-size pickup, the mpg of a V8 would not meet...

exactly, and i have not been able to find any iterature on what is the minimum pressure for the high lift mechinism to activate/deactive is.

man, I'd love an LS! I do wonder if the activation is more of a feedback and contral function. That is, there is an initial target based on engine load, pedal position, etc. then within a range of criteria it activates. For example, at WOT in 1st it knows the driver wants to rip, so itturns on...

so yes and no, pressure starts increasing at 2800, its a setting in the software to activate the solenoid). However it takes a few rpms to get up to full pressure. There is also a slow pressure decay once under 2800 (once it turns off). My initial intent was to say stay away from 2800 with...

I'd suspect something more like the ramcharger 1500, but probably not as much electric range: https://www.ramtrucks.com/electric/ram-1500-ramcharger.html

The challenge with the 3.6 is the damn cam followers since they can prematurely wearout. I've dealt with this 3 times (once at 57k before the supercharger, and 2 mote times after). What i've concluded, so far, is that you need to be over 3k rpm's or at 2500 and below. at 2800 is when the oil...

I have been interested in building a 4600 class JT, but they limit y to 2.65in shocks. This is a bummer because I've developmed 3.0's for both the gladiator and Raptor (raptor technically has 3.1s, but because it's internal bypass the piston is still equalivalent to a 2.5in shock). I have been...

Magnuson supercharger helps remedy high altitude struggles

I have over 100k on my manual with the OEM style clutch, still holds great even with the Magnuson SC, and have raced it in Baja. I have a hard time calling it Junk. I do laugh at how light it feels, but there's a reason for a dual mass set up with respect to engine vibration loads. I am...

i do have limit straps on the rear, I welded a tab to the inside of the frame and connected the strap to one of the upper control arm tabs. i dont have straps in the front yet, the suspension locks itself out when you hit about 30in of shock extended length, however, I dont recommend relying on...

which 4.5in lift did she have installed? You can always gift them or sell them at a discount

Good morning gang, I finally stopped at a dealership to take measurements of stock JT's in comparison to my JT with the production springs. Here's what I measured: Spot S will see a 3.5in Front and 3.5in Rear lift Mojave will see a 2.7in Front and 3in Rear lift I took into account the tires...

RK did an awesome job getting their lengths correct which minimizes pinion movement through the full suspension cycle. If someone kept the RK triangulated uppers and switched to long lowers then at full droop the pinion will want to point down which would put some serious stress on it. The...

Evo makes a nice one, but you have to remove the gas tank and purcahse a separate one to put where the spare tire mounts. The Rock Krawler Pro-x upgrade for the rear is perfect for my use. I actually have 18in of rear wheel travel when paired with Fox's longest 2.5 DSC shock (32.3in ext)...

ah, I'm not as worried about that as I'm smashing whoops at 60+ mph, so the longer front arms help allow for better wheel travel and ride when at full droop. The rear I don't run a long arm kit because I would have to go back to using a track bar vs. my triangulated rear set up.

What are the cons?....

I can help you put together a suspension set up that will get you 18in of rear wheel travel. I've helped a few others here and have also developed my own set of springs I'm now selling, and am in the middle of developing 3.0 bypass shocks. It works great with 37's which is what I run, and I...

Prior to developing my own 3.0 bypass shocks I ran fox 2.5 DSC with their 2.0 bump stops on all 4 corners and those worked great. Then I upgraded to fox 3.0 internal bypass for the front , and custom fit 3.0 external bypass in the rear. I have a massive tech article on that along with springs...

Hey Rob, when you say max wheel travel, how much are you getting? I ask because I just launched my company and am prducing springs that allow for 18in of rear wheel travel, the closest competion resulted in 13.5-14in which is a hell of a difference. shoot me a PM with any questions on suspension...
