I regeared my Jeep to 5.38 a year ago and it has been trouble free and quiet running at all speeds / conditions.
However, after the truck sat at the airport for a week, it started to have a loud whining sound on the drive home. I have an appointment with the shop next Monday but I wanted to see...
It is a 37x12.5 spare tire. I can squeeze it in there now but it rubs the track bar a bit. I had it there for a few thousand miles already but left it off after the tire rotation. I have a Metalcloak rear track bar, however, it is the straight version as they came out with the bent one shortly...
I am looking for an in bed spare tire solution that would work with a Softopper. I use my bed quite a bit so I was hoping to find a solution that holds the spare tire horizontally above the bed rails. The Motobilt cargo rack would work if it didn’t have rails on the rack. KBVoodoo crossbars...
Love seeing another tan Softopper with the tan Suntop. I almost did the same thing but I really wanted a year round soft top and stumbled on a great deal on a premium soft top. Looks great and certainly a different approach ;-)
Black or a dark grey closer in tone to the bumpers and black...
Quick correction:
Just confirmed…the color that I installed is actually quite a bit different from the 3M matte military green…as mentioned earlier PixelDecals had to send another brand of vinyl due to supply constraints. Here is a quick comparison between the sample and what I installed. 3M...
Question for you...does your upshift at full throttle sound like shit?
The BRRAAAAAP on full throttle upshifts sounds like total dogshit and I do not recall it being this bad when first installed. It is extremely loud BRAAAAP, very hollow, thin, and tinny. My wife, who has zero sense of...
Well there you go. It was supposed to be the 3M Matte Military Green but they had to send a different brand due to supplier issues...but extremely close.
Cheers
Appreciate it and yea, a cohesive and subtle Jeep version of a deuce and a half was my goal! Cool idea on the blackout drive lights I will have to think about that one. ;-)
Now for the tan soft top...I have been bugging Bestop for this for the last two years and was hoping for another company...
LOL appreciate it! The videos make it look so easy but oh well...at least you got yours done too! If mine ends up lifting more then I will redo it but lets see how long it lasts.
Cheers
Yea that is exactly what I attempted several times. I had a heat gun, foam roller, tiny pin to poke holes, and the plastic vinyl tool to really press into the creases. After researching a bit more it really came down to me making two mistakes:
1. I used soapy water everywhere to lay down the...
What tires are you considering? I wanted 38s but I couldn’t find the tires I wanted in a 38, with a normal width in a 17” wheel. If you are considering bfg and concerned about axles then don’t fret with a 38since they run so small and light.
Yea same...pretty sure I will go with the Cavfab Rampage now. I love my front bumper but I cannot fit in the garage with the stinger. Fingers crossed for a Labor Day sale ;-)
