If you’ve never seen one in person, the QM is about a foot longer than the already too long Gladiator. Way too long for me

Eh, water under the bridge. The good news is by not correcting tire size it bought me an extra 8k miles on the 60k bumper to bumper warranty 😂

Just rolled over the 60k mark on my 22 JTOD, although I never corrected my tire size so I’m probably closer to 68k actual mileage.

The workaround for me was telling my dealership that I could not register my vehicle due to an open recall. They had it in and done in 72 hours.

I’m lazy. I went for the simplest wheels to clean. Level 8 Punch 17x8.5 -6

We can all agree on that one, hands down the best.

Jump on YT and look up how to chalk test your tires. Not every wheel and tire combo will be the same.

https://a.co/d/0j1ZQcG I run these and I like them. The convex lens gives me a good view of everything around me.

Bump stops??? What are those??? Mine have been shoved up in the bump stop tube for as long as I can remember. At most there’s half an inch of foam hanging out that obviously doesn’t do any bumping or stopping.

I think the biggest impact on larger tires these days is the size of the vehicle has changed, as well as the transmission and gearing. Think about wheel size, what it took to put 20s on an OBS Chevy. Now they come with 22s factory and they look rather small in the wheel wells. 6, 8, and 10 speed...

For reference, this is 4.5” up front, 4” rear on 37s. I don’t think 3-3.5” will be too tall for 37s if I’m honest

The bolt being used goes on the driver’s side, not the passenger side. You can just remove the bolt and flip it so the bolt head is closer to the spring and you won’t rub anything.

I’ve been lucky so far and haven’t had to use them. Tonneau cover is super easy to remove, it generally self removes itself on most trails 😂

Yeah both of my corners are scratched up lol. I have a Westin steel bumper to put on but I need to finish the metal work on it before powder coating. The hitch slider will actually save the bumper more than you’d expect. There are used single 37” spares out there for cheap. I had one mounted...

Most of the Wranglers that I go with are 4 doors, and there are 3 or 4 of us with JTs that go in that group on a regular basis. You’ll drag your hitch a lot, so find something to protect it if you want to. Skid plates will come in handy at some point if you start getting more serious about off...

I have come to find that it’s rather quiet in the SoCal section, which I don’t understand considering JTs are everywhere out here. I can say however that the guys on the wrangler forums are doing trails ALL the time. Might be worth it to check some of those out. Good people, active, and not...

Anything you get will enhance the sound in your JT because you’re adding more power and more speakers. I cannot vouch for MB Quartet in this instance, but I really liked their stuff in the early 2000s.

17x8.5 -6 on 37s with 2” leveling up front and nothing in the back.
