  1. 2023 JTRD Build Thread - "Blue Jeep"

    A bit of troubles in paradise to report on the wheel/tire setup, but mostly good. 1. The Method 709HD lip bolts were WAY over torqued from the factory. When trying to pull them off (to install the rock guard rings), I broke a few on 2 of the wheels. Method is aware of this problem and are...
  2. The Daylight Saving Time Poll

    They could split the difference and call it a day. Then everybody is happy. 😅
  3. Hit an object on the highway and blew the rear tire at 65

    Had this happen on my Audi with someone's 2" ball hitch. After running it over, the hitch shot out like a rocket, off the highway. (I watched it in my mirror)
  4. Vibration Issue - New Truck, Tires and Lift

    Do the tie rod/drag link check... Put someone in the driver seat with the vehicle running. Turn the steering wheel a 1/4 turn slowly in each direction and watch each ball joints for any uneven movement.
  5. Vibration Issue - New Truck, Tires and Lift

    Checked tire pressure in all 4? One tire at a different pressure could cause vibration that wouldn't show up during individual tire balancing.

    Appreciate it! Just ordered my next oil change + a few extra quarts.

    Sorry to be useless but do you have a link to the specific Amsoil AFL oil? When I search, I end up finding a few different results.

    38 x 13.5 R17 Trail Grapplers on Method 709HD
  9. Some links for similar TUNE M1

    Before you buy, make sure you visit the corresponding Facebook groups to see what the overall sentiment is on the product and customer service. Each brand has it's own facebook group for owners, and the best ones where you'll find honesty are not run by the company.
  10. Two Gladiators Destroyed in Moab Flash Flooding

    Watched that last night before bed... Tough to see, hard to imagine myself in that situation. I think I'd choose a high ground and spend a rough night with the wife complaining about how I got her into that situation. Maybe that's why he chose the water. 😅
  11. With great sadness I am leaving!

    Can confirm, my father tows his wrangler (or boat) and with a huge camper on his 3500 dually, gets 20MPG climbing up and down mountain passes with cruise control on.
  12. 2023 JTRD Build Thread - "Blue Jeep"

    Thanks! Not done yet. In the near future I still have bumpers, skid plates, and wheels/tires. I also still need to install my radio and rear view trailer camera, run electrical to the bed... the list goes on but I'm ahead of schedule now at least.

    It was team work. 💪 I paid the bill, CloakWorks 4x4 did the work. 😂 I've installed many suspensions... lowering, lifting, and everything in between and I didn't want to do it again. lol

    I wouldn't take that as an indicator. Not many places sell Liquimoly either but it's one of the best options for german cars.

    Where do you get the Amsoil? Direct from mfg? I've been hoping to stumble across a store that has it but no luck so far.
  17. airing up tires ?

    I use a twin piston compressor from a company that went out of business/was absorbed into another company. I also use the 4 tire inflation hoses from Speedflate. If I did it again today, I'd go with Morrflate's TenSix with the PSI monitoring system.
  18. Future Sibling: Ram Dakota Pickup First Look!

    I think it's safe to say that, even if it does come out of the same factory as a JL/JT, it won't have many similarities based on what we've been shown so far. Whoever wrote that it would in the PR dept was wrong.
  19. Future Sibling: Ram Dakota Pickup First Look!

    Turbos don't instantly mean failure anymore. Maybe in the 80s and early 90s but now days, they're just as reliable as any other mechanical engine part.
