Crank windows are a KISS theory thing, just to help the OP understand. Same for manual locks.
I'm all for replicating whatever side airbags they used on the front occupants to the back, sounds like it's in/by the seat as opposed to actual side curtain. That's a reasonable ask I feel like...
Thanks sounds like a number of good options. I was able to roll it up width-wise and fit it under the back seat. I think it should be able to roll back out without damage but will check back if I see any issues.
Honestly I had really good luck with Plastidip on my last truck, painted the stock wheels matte black. I had to touch it up after a couple years but really held up well and easy to take off if you don't like it.
Ah thanks, hadn't thought of any of those. I could see rigging something up to hold it against the front seat without the bag even.
Do you put yours up against the front inside of the bed? I could see strapping it like that too.
I might be overthinking it but wasn't sure if it would be bad for the soft top back window to fold it for storing under the back seat or somewhere else in the truck? I enjoy keeping it off unless it's pretty cold or raining hard, but wouldn't mind keeping it with me if I run into an unexpected...
I wish there was a ratio between 4.10 and 4.56, maybe like a 4.30. ideally I'd like 6th to be geared where 5th is on 3.73s, which is about 4.20.
So 4.56 it is. Never fear the gear.
The jeep doesnt turn off at every stop light oir sign either. It may even be considered as part of the drivetrain since it is an active part of the stop and go function of the system. It is what it is and it isn't going away. It's ugly but tolerable.
Increased maintenance and complexity is...
