The MOAB wheels on the stock TJR's were well known for their ability to hold a bead at low pressure, I ran as low as 10 psi, but usually were at 14 psi or so. Now, with our JKUR on 17's and 35's I usually run around 16 to 17 off-road. Same with our JTR on 17's. With 20" wheels you won't gain...
Wow, just finished reading through the 19 page transmission thread re fluid change. Lots of information in there. One thing that was mentioned is transmissios "hunting" gears at certain speeds. My Gladiator seems to not know exactly what gear to be in on certain stretchs of roads. Usually...
The idea of an onboard generator charging batteries is not new. The railroad industry has used this concept for decades, sans the batteries. It makes some sense to design a small engine that can operate at a constant speed at its optimal torque and fuel consumption/emission level that would...
Is that an oiled K&N air filter? If so, is there an option for a regular paper filter that stops more than just the big chunks? As you can surmise, I am not a K&N filter fan.
I am looking for sources of quality split loom wiring protection. We live in the desert and with temps here hitting well over 100 degrees during our summers the spilt loom material from Amazon or O'Reilley's last about a year or 2 and then crumbles. Is there any quality stuff out there that...
Thanks, this turned out to be quite fun, but more time consuming than I thought it would be. Still working on getting the "right" hardware for these. It looks like I will have $30 more or less (mostly more LOL ) in materials in a 39 inch diameter wheel. I don't know what the market is, but am...
I picked up a new hobby, building wooden wagon wheels. This necessitated getting a wood lathe, band saw and a few other tools to add to my table saw and other tools. Working on my 3rd one now, may be able to put it together with no glue, we shall see if I can get the spokes to all fit just...
Man, this is a looonnngg thread. Very interesting, just wondering if it might be better to install a new PCV valve on a regular basis. The Mopar part is available on Rock Auto for 25 bucks or so, seems we need to really be sure we have a properly functioning valve to maintain that vacuum in...
We bought the Lifetime MOPAR Warranty on our 2016 JKUR when new, it was just over 4 grand. We have all the service done at the dealership, and the warranty has more than paid for itself. No plans to sell or trade the rig, just over 115,000 miles, you never know with the 3.6, we might be on...
Those of you saying you had, or have, audio out on your U-connect, do you mean that you have no audio when you answer your cell phone? My iphone pairs nicely, I can answer calls or make calls, however no audio comes through, I have to pick up my phone and change it to speaker so I can hear the...
Yup, it dose get a little balmy in the summertime. We get out of town for part of July and all of August, we will be up in Silverton Colorado then. My sister lived on Wensley years ago. I am leading a run for our local group next Saturday out east, the Walker Lake Loop. We have had some rain...
Those are excellent prices. I could put one 3.5 cube spot forward, and 2 3.5 floods slightly to the side for less than what a pair of Ridgid Sideshooters cost. Might look into that....
Attached are several photos of my JT with the stock wheels and the Falken 11.5's This is with a 2 to 2.5 inch lift. No rubbing issues. The picture of the driver's front shows on of the several mechanical/electonic anti-theft devices I use. There is a cartel theft ring in our area using...
I kinow a lot of people like the oiled K&N filters...but...check out Project Farm on youtube. He does a pretty comprehensive test of air filtration and the K&N is not highly rated. If you do use one, check for contamination between the filter and the intake when you change it out. That will...
I really like the look of my Rough Country HD rock sliders, nice smooth exterior, no protruding tubes to catch on rocks. However, even with a small lift my wife stated she would really like a step on the passenger side. So I ordered the MORE Easy Step and figured with a little modification I...
I have them, I like the smooth look to them, they kind of work as a step, but as others have said, you will step up on them and then have to step down into the Jeep. Our Glad is a bit high for my wife (2.5 inches lift or so) so I ordered the MORE spring loaded step for her side. I will make a...
