Good suggestion, thanks.

For a minute you had me scratching my head. I was thinking, how the hell do I get antifreeze in the brake lines. Then I kept reading. I only have a flat bed car trailer. If I get the tires off the ground, could I cover each of them with a garbage bag for sun protection?

Going to leave my, new to me, car trailer in a grass lot next to my office. Should I put car jacks under the trailer to keep the wheels out of the grass all winter or maybe put a 2x8 under the tires so they aren't in contact with the ground. Not sure if the tires in the grass all winter would...

Was getting some creaking when pulling out of the driveway and when I would park. Thought it might be the brakes, had 50K miles on the original pads. Replaced the pads this past weekend. Only looked about half worn. Or the pad was half the size of the new pad (maybe that's more than half?)...

I was reading an article online, in the last 4 years, automobile prices across the board are up 30%

I was at the dealership yesterday picking up my JT. Saw a 24 JL Rubicon 4xe in the lot. Sticker was $70,000. I didn't think the prices were that high yet but I guess I was wrong.

I was hoping the X would come with 35's and 4:56 gearing

Finally bought a car trailer. Found a used aluminum at a good price. Never had a trailer before so everything is new. I was looking at the axle bearings, there is a lot of grease around them. Wiped some of it off and saw they are Dexter E-Z lube. Went to the Dexter site and found the...

I saw they were looking for a 46% raise over4 years. And a 32hr work week but paid for 40 hrs.

I wonder in the future, if the paint corrosion will be considered "patina"

Other than the paint starting to bubble on the hood at 48,000 miles, haven't had any other issues. Overall been happy with it and as a newbie to off-roading, I'm constantly impressed by how much abuse the jeep will handle.

Mine is in the shop right now getting fixed. Almost in the same exact spot as yours. Also starting to get a spot on the driver door hinge. Had 45,000 miles on it so dealership took care of it. My daughters 2020 JL had corrosion on all 4 doors and the tailgate. All at the hinges. She had...

Thanks for the heads up on potential problems. It's steel. Will probably stick with a standard trailer and ramps.

Thoughts on a Kwik Load tilt trailer? Found one locally.

Mine fit from my Rubicon. Had the plastic fender and bought a knock-off Rubicon steel fender. The steel fender came with lights and brackets but I switched out to the factory ones. Fit perfect in the brackets.

I'd like to go aluminum but for the amount of times I'm realistically going to use it and the added cost, I think I'm going to stick with steel. Although my other thought was to buy a used steel with wood platform and over time replace the wood with aluminum planking. I was looking at some...

Any difference between a car trailer with a steel bed vs one with wood? Looking at used trailer to tow a car and have seen full steel beds, some with steel rails on each side (where tires would go) and open in the middle and ones with full wood beds. Not sure if there is any difference...

Thanks, I'll check the pads this weekend.

When I first start the Jeep and let off the brake, either one or both of the rear wheels/brakes is making a grinding or crunching noise. Happens in reverse and forward and only happens when going really slow. Like a mile or two. Soon as I speed up and apply the brakes no noise. Jeep has...
