Even years before the manufacturers added the cable mount for half way, I used to flip the cable over the latch bung used to hold the tailgate closed.
more trustworthy than shite house techs.
If that was me I would consider haggling over a new Sport S. Unless you absolutely need the Max Tow. I was able to get a $15k discount on an MSRP of $51,400. That has three nice packages but no Max Tow. Hardtop, automatic with comfort convenience, rear traffic assist and stop with LED...
You say you have a stock Sport S? If so then like mine look in the driver door jamb for the information sticker, that will tell you the legal payload amount. In mine that’s only 1,044. But the Dport S is available with the Max Tow and Payload package, that raises that to around 1,700lbs. So now...
I knew someone would think that. But I lived in New England for over 60 years, till 2018. Had LED’s in two different Colorados in snow/icy conditions for 7 years, since before I found MORIMOTO LED’s.
There are bulbs made by a couple different companies, MORIMOTO is one. That designed their bulbs with a reverse cooling fan, that sends the heated air forward through the blade of the bulb towards the front of the housing, in effect heating the outside lens from the inside. Mine worked great!
That all depends upon the aim and especially orientation of the “blade” mounted within. Everything I have read and personally experienced has been to have the led elements facing side to side, as stated in the MORIMOTO instillation guide. To prevent unwanted glare, plus correct coverage on low...
That’s the biggest gripe I have about new vehicles, to dam many Nannie’s built into the stability system. To the point you can’t make handbrake turns! In the past I’ve used handbrakes to help send power across an open differential, even an especially on fork lifts, that’s worked every time.
I have a subscription to a brand new car wash called Mr. Car Wash, a very soft touch with micro fiber in their spinning barrel cleaners, and top line washes include ceramic protectant just before rinse and blow/buff/exit. Unlimited at $38.00/mo. The only leaks we have are below the arm rests in...
Either stick with your full sized truck, or save the extra expense for high end trim and go with a nice Sport S, with Max Tow Package. That will give you the highest payload and lightest curb weight, with proper sized 17” alloy wheels and AT tires. That will be at least a 1,600 lbs payload...
First thing I would do Chief is find a new dealer, before I would give up. Then if the lack of security persists? Then I would consider trading in for a new Jeep, or whatever you prefer. Maybe even go vintage and simple? Whatever you choose good luck.
Back in 2009 my wife and I took a fly/rent driving trip from Denver Airport, in a rented H2, Wranglers were not available. We then drove to S Dakota to see Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Deadwood, then to Wyoming and Devils Tower. Then west to the East entrance of Yellowstone, mind you this was in...
Jeep has done a great job tuning the exhaust. However the parameters from the government are very strict about sound decibels in total. That being the overall sounds made at a certain drive by distance under certain throttle settings. Both exhaust, intake roar and mechanical noise effects that...
It’s kinda hard to tell in this picture, exactly how far from the wall are you? The two individual beams should meet in one notch at 25’. If not then block each one off at a time to see exactly where each has its peak in the cutoff. Do those light assemblies have a side to side adjustment? You...
You won’t get much advantage with low profile tires at all compared with high profile tires. Like 255/80-17 also at 33.1” tall. But yes you will risk breaking the bead!
I use manual mode on the highway most of the time with the ACC engaged, that has increased the life time average mileage over the last 2,000 miles to 20.1 mpg. I have noticed that when I’m in man mode in top gear, if I roll in the throttle or punch over 1/2 the transmission will drop to 6 th and...
Oh yea I know that. But that’s what I’m concerned about, all the extra damage caused to the inner structure, instead of folding up and popping out/off!
