Well I agree. Arby's can F right off with their prices.
But that's not the point I'm trying to make. I'm not talking about the worth of the product of these two (definitely not comparing them head to head). I'm saying that the importance put on the people involved in coal is overblown when...
I'll be the jackass that puts in my countering two cents. What annoys me to no end is that we've been hearing this "but what about the coal miners?!" talk for years, but in the USA, more people work for Arby's (80k) than in the coal industry (43k).
Now I'd certainly be disappointed if Arby's...
Should be fine. The weirdness is that Jeep uses a pissload of different springs (i.e.: not all Rubicons have the exact same springs at all four corners). That said, any set of Rubicon springs should raise your Sport at least 3/4" but probably no more than 1.25".
Gas Rubicon springs/shocks...
I agree. Same thing as full-size trucks. Be it Ford, Chevy, or Ram, their max tow possible is always some weird configuration no one ever buys anyway. Buyers of the Raptor/Trail Boss/Rebel know they're not getting that maximum tow rating.
You've titled your post "lemon law junk," but it seems you haven't looked up what your state's lemon law is.
To the average person, a "lemon" is a vehicle that has more problems than the owner thinks it ought to have. But in the legal world, which is where you go to get the manufacturer to act...
I agree with others that this doesn't really seem like THE tick that I've seen others post on here. As stated, that tick doesn't go away when the engine is up to full operating temperature.
I showed up and played dumb, saying "I dunno, the auto start/stop has quit working." Both batteries replaced under warranty (about 24k miles).
Auto start/stop has since quit working again, but I'm not under warranty anymore. ?
Yes, the a/c in the JT is as good as any modern car a/c ought to be. My only complaint is that on full auto in the heat of the summer, I wish it'd keep the fan speed up higher. No biggie, just turn it up manually. Most people don't run it in full auto anyway.
And correct, zero axle whine. The...
I traded in an '04 WJ Limited 4.7L HO Quadradrive (pretty much every option possible except the rock rails of the Overland and the navigation) for my Gladiator. I still consider it the perfect Jeep: V8 engine, four doors, and solid axles. Too bad the 4.7L engine doesn't last.
Mine did it once a couple of years ago; hasn't happened since.
I posted about it in a thread then, and there seemed to be a common thread in the ...thread... of it happening in cold temps. For me it happened immediately after flooring it to make it through a changing yellow light.
I agree. Do this and get everything calibrated correctly before even thinking about gears. I have Rubicon-spec tires (32.8") on mine w/ 3.73 gears, and it'll hold 8th no problem over about 51mph.
Just went through the same with mine.
Since trade-in values are down, interest rates are up, and my Glad has been problem-free, I bought it (financed w/ credit union).
Sure there are some options mine doesn't have that I'd like to have, but the juice ain't worth the squeeze at 6% interest on...
I did it almost exactly a year ago. Netted about 3/4" of lift. Ride is a tad more firm. I agree with others' takes that the Fox shocks aren't very amazing, but they're fine.
The deal is, that within a given trim level, there's like 3 or 4 combos of spring rates a JT can have based on options...
Sure, it's ultimately the engine working against compression to slow the vehicle, but the transmission is being engaged to do this. And due to friction, this generates heat in the transmission. I think it is a bad idea to intentionally and routinely perform an unnecessary action that results in...
