If I have a bunch of heavy things (canopy, RTT) permanently mounted, how would you suggest I do the initial setup? I’m thinking jack the rear from the bumper so that the frame is level, then pump it up?
Just got a set delivered yesterday. Also ordered the daystar 3/4” spacers front and rear just for a tad more clearance on the trails. Should help with the tent, canopy, and other gear over the rear axle and future winch on the front axle.

CDJ + Fiat place in BOTTOM 8.
Ram is 14th (from the bottom). Here’s hoping the designs borrowed from the Ram 1500 will help the JT, although it’s a pretty low ceiling.
Awesome, thanks for the feedback! So I guess there is still a tiny bit of interference between the handle and the bumper and small shave to either one should do the trick. Out of curiosity, why did you decide to trim the bumper and not the handle?
Yep, full-size iKamper Skycamp 2.0. Love it.
Just finished five nights around Moab. Three of them on the White Rim in Canyonlands. Amazing trip. Crazy comfortable even as a side-sleeper.
I'm starting to look at the ASFIR products. Made in and shipped from Israel.
Huge thread on the JL forum on aftermarket skid plates, 95% of the discussion is on the ASFIR product and it seems pretty solid, no complaints. Lots of photos. Here's one powder coated red:
1/4" 5052 aluminum and...
@Donkey Fluffer, sorry if you posted this already, but can you confirm if you had any install issues with the Badland Apex and the Rugged Ridge Spartacus winch plate? Did you have to trim the engagement handle and/or use the Poison Spyder spacers to get it to clear?
I am a Tesla fanboy but will 100% admit they are deserve last place in the "initial quality" study ;)
My friend just took delivery of a Model Y and it's MISSING a cowl cover. :facepalm:
I have a Tesla Model 3. IMHO, it is the best product (not just vehicle) you can buy in any category at any price, but for reasons OTHER than initial quality.
I have had a several issues when I purchased it 2018 (panel alignment, charge port door) and a couple still come up every once in a...
IF the steering issue stems from a poor calibration and IF the reset trick forces a recalibration, it could absolutely work like this.
Keyword: IF.
I’m just hypothesizing based on the context and the recommends steps.
I’m speaking about EV 4x4s, SUVs, and trucks as a segment rather than just Jeeps. I’m also asserting that Jeep will want to participate in this new segment in some way. This is evident in Mark Allen’s comments, which is the basis of this thread.
What I’m NOT claiming is that these new products...
No, I’m well aware of rated vs actual range which is why I even bothered to use the term “rated” in the first place.
100 to 150 miles off road should be a piece of cake in my estimation, otherwise the engineers are not doing their job and designing in a large enough battery. Off-roading is...
But we gotta differentiate between electric off-road vehicle and electric “overlanding” vehicle, whatever your definition of overlanding is.
Not everyone is going to do multi-day 200+ mile trips away from civilization. Heck, most people don’t even take their Jeeps off-pavement!
I’m about to...
Anyone want to split this set of black lug nuts?

Good for three sets total, I only need one set of 20. We’ll split costs evenly as I don’t need to make...
Not yet. I’m going to use it for a couple trips, and see where I would like to put things, how I would like to organize things. I think I want to get the table mount that attaches to the ceiling of the canopy, but again, not yet.
