  1. "OLD SCHOOL" manual hubs

    I converted my '97 Ranger to Warn's manual hubs, the "automatic" hubs blew out twice in 33K miles. I drove thousands of miles with hubs locked and unlocked, there was no measurable difference in mileage. There was a measurable difference in performance when I stopped to pull a UPS truck out of...
  2. 35s and No Lift Thread

    Found signs of a little rub from 315/70R17 KO2's. Which, with 20K wear, now measure 34.4" tall mounted on the Jeep and adjusted for same with my Tazer.
  3. Parts ordered to make a 4 Tire Inflation system

    Makes me feel less bad about pushing the easy button, but I get the imperative to roll your own. I can never do without a 4 tire system, now.
  4. Bluetooth trailer brakes, fried wiring

    When will it be unreliable? AFTER the RV dealer fixes the short in the trailer? If you want to talk smack about tech you don't understand, a closer reading of posts would help you sound less uninformed.
  5. Jeep Wave Program Won't Rotate "Oversized" Tires (35ers)

    I learned that trick, but using my feet, when swapping between AT 35's and MT 37's on my ex's H2. Getting the spare on the rear rack was a helluva challenge, though!
  6. Updated Steering - Not so Updated

    Did they do an alignment after replacing the box? I went to my favorite suspension shop right after I bought my JTR in June of '20, because I don't trust dealers. My shop told me what the issue was (insufficient caster) and I was able to make my truck driveable until the TSB for the steering box...
  7. Ive officially joined the PC masrer race

    Considering how much they nerf some games on PC because controllers are so hard to use, you'll be better off in the long run. Get a really good hi DPI mouse and go for it!
  8. The Overland big lie!!

    Why on Earth would a comfort and street oriented trim level have off-road suspension and steel bumpers? You sound like you've never bought a vehicle before, and then you snivel about the amount of money you paid! Save it.
  9. Bronco is fullsize - no comparison

    Ummm, what? I agree the Bronco is big, but it is very capable off-road. The Tacoma is also VERY capable off-road, one of my wheeling group drives a 2019 TRD Offroad. It is in NO WAY a lifted car, sorry but you've completely lost me on that.
  10. Winch at lightest weight? 8k+

    That's a good CJ/YJ/TJ winch, I didn't even consider that for the JTR. The 12K Smitty XRC G3 was $700 at the retail store 4 Wheel Parts. The 46 lb for the 9.5 vs 66 lbs for the 12 is irrelevant. Huh, even cheaper now with 10% off $750 with store pickup...
  11. (Another) New Windshield

    Factory Gorilla glass? HGP has a 2 yr warranty, is why I ask. I've had hard hits on mine in the last 10 months, not a scratch.
  12. Asfir 4x4 Engine and Transmission skid plate

    I'm a bit torn about the transfer case plate, I decided to wait on installing mine. Your stock armor looks well used! I guess I've not talked myself into chopping a bit of ground clearance away there, when most of my scratches so far are on suspension skidplates (and my taildragger). If I...
  13. select speed control makes grunting sounds when engaged

    Jeep copied the sounds Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro's make when using Crawl Control. It's a spectacular system, but how often do you have to use it?
  14. Two naive tire questions 32 vs 33 inch tire

    It's kind of like display sizes for monitors and TV's, 65" "class" TV with a 64.3" actual viewing size. The 33x10.5R15's I ran on my YJ measured 32.5" when I put them on and 32. 2" when I took them off and replaced them with the 32.5" Falken AT's from my JTR. That's measured on the truck from...
  15. Uconnect settings to avoid Sirius XM

    I never have a problem with the headunit connecting back to Spotify on my Android. If I've killed Spotify or rebooted for some reason, it can take a minute to get going again, but XM doesn't interfere with the process. My biggest problem is my wife getting in first on the passenger side and her...
  16. Why so big?

    1968 911 L curb weight 2,381 lbs. 2018 911 Carrera 2 coupe curb weight 3,153 lbs. I know which car I'd rather be in if involved in a TC.
  17. Trailer Brake Controllers for the Gladiator

    I got the Curt Echo and then I got the button to stick on the dash for brakes. Totally worth it, makes setting up a new trailer brake profile easy. I borrow cargo trailers from work frequently, and it's whatever is left over from mobilization, so I've filled the profiles out in addition to our...
  18. The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

    There is a good reason to keep the doors light. My YJ doors are WAY heavier despite no window motors!
  19. Is it ok to leave the Selec-Trac Full Time 4WD System on?

    Don't forget the occasional burnout!
  20. Rampage *Trailview? Soft Top

    The no back windows is very attractive to me, I'm jealous of the JL's in town rolling that way. I'd dispense with my JTops mesh if the rear is covered and the top opens that quickly. Gotta love the Jeep aftermarket!
