Yeah, Atlanta rush hour is a constant 0-90-0. Can’t really do that when pulling a trailer so I just stay over in the right lanes to help some.

That bothers me less than the people who pull out in front of me when pulling a trailer or cut in front of me and then slam on the brakes. I can’t stand pulling heavy trailers in rush hour traffic because it happens way too often.

I kinda went overboard with waterproof connectors with heat shrink over them and it all inside wire loom with like half a roll of electrical tape. lol

It takes willpower to not do it.

It’s a pain running the back up lights to the aux switches, but I’m glad I did. Mine are really bright and I didn’t want to be blinding people in parking lots. I also did most of the wiring on my work bench. I just spent forever with zip ties running it with the factory wiring to look more OEM...

Looks great. I really like the look of gladiators with shells that match the non painted hard tops.

285/70/18s are hard to find. I know because that’s what I run. I’ve never seen 285/75/18s. Mine are 33.7”. What are those? 34.2 or so?

Vehicles with ESS used to be like that. Then they changed to where they had to be disabled every time you start it.

There was never a time when anyone liked the 3.7l. The only thing it wasn’t terrible in was 6 speed KJs. It’s not like it was good 20 yrs ago or in different applications. The Toyota 3.5l V6 is pretty great in Camrys, but it was awful in the Tacoma. It never even had that.

That’s a good question. I’ve thought about it before but never done it because it’s expensive and I don’t want to waste several hundred dollars on something with marginal results.

I had a dream last night that I bought my 2004 4.7l WJ back. I was so happy. Somehow it just sat for 17 yrs after I traded it in on my 2008 JKU Rubicon and was in the same shape I left it. I loved that Jeep, but I definitely blame this thread. 😂 I hadn’t thought much about it in years. If I...

I love dogs, mine is spoiled, but I wouldn’t sweat it. My dog is never cold in the back seat. Maybe it’s more of a problem with football sized dogs.

They did good in the minivans.

The 3.8l was a proven, long lasting engine well before it went into the JK. The problem was power to weight ratio. Even on the stock 32s, 4.10s and a 6 speed manual, my JKU Rubicon was a dog. The 2 door base model manuals with 3.73s on the stock tiny tires were actually surprisingly fun to drive.

On the subject of the 3.7l, why would anyone want it? It was a bad engine back in the day and even underpowered on lighter vehicles. I remember driving a KK from Atlanta to Asheville and it was struggling to maintain interstate speed with a headwind. The 3.7l sounded bad and idled rough and was...

It’s louder as far as other vehicles, like loud exhaust, etc. The wind noise over 65 is about the same with both.

I honestly wasn’t sure if it was a typo or not. lol

With as loud as mine is with my hard top and the fact that I can’t tell any difference in hwy wind noise with the soft tops I’ve driven, I often wish I’d purchased a soft top. I’ll buy a soft top eventually. I need to pay more attention to deals near me when they pop up. The soft tops are...

I loved my 4.7l WJ. They get a bad rep because of the people who own them now. They buy from buyer pay here and don’t change the oil. There were tons of them with 300k+ miles on them. Just change the oil regularly. Preferably with synthetic. Good sounding engine too.

My bumper lights have that feature. I used the aux switches and didn’t hook that wire up. My headlights have halos. That’s enough. Plus my lights are “for offroad use only”.
