The ECRI does all the same stuff and costs half as much.

Stellantis announced their Hurricane 6 yesterday, including an HO version with over 500hp. I think the I6 was the real reason the front axle moved forward 2" in the JL vs the JK.

Yeah, its basically a 6cyl version of the 2L I4 that Fiat engineered. Too bad there isn't a 3.3L multijet 6 coming, too.

What don't you like about the L3B? Its faster than the 5.3 and I got 22mpg average with one.

You spelled 5.0 Coyote wrong.

I find that highly suspect.

5deg is spec, so there's not much to complain about what the shop did there. Did I miss where the OP talked about how the adjusters were set? Sure, more caster will have more on-center feel, but I'm not sure if I'd go throwing parts at 1deg of caster before the camber is fixed. Until then...

What's wrong with the caster? The only thing that's jacked is the camber, and the only way to get that is camber bushings.

... for Willys Sport w/ 6spd/4.88 option.

So, they just changed the toe to zero. The caster around 5deg is good for highway. Camber is way out. Was this alignment from a separate shop, or just part of the lift install? They corrected the steering being off-center. I doubt they touched the caster. The camber issue isn't from the lift...

It would appear, that the 5" radio is history. Base Sport models now come w/ the 7" unit. With good, full function aftermarket kits available now, at fairly reasonable cost, there's no way I'd spend more than $400 on a 7" upgrade.

That's what I suspected. Probably a non-issue for all but those who plan on using the full capabilities of a Rubicon.

To me it isn't understanding, its about how much damn work it is in constantly changing conditions, usually not during, but after a weather event. Having had a stack of part time (S10, Bronco, Sidekick, JKU) and a couple of AWD and auto vehicles- its night and day for convenience. Fuel economy...

The 4xe in the WL is rated to tow 6000lb, so it should be able to do the same in a JT. Electrified Hurricane will be a full-size thing.

Diesel will stick around longer, as heavy trucks will still have purpose long after passenger cars.

It all depends on your location and usage. In my case, With EV counterparts, we’d need about 25kwh a day. This time of year our cars are only home for about 2 hours of daylight. We would need to charge from battery. With a power factor of 3.5 in this zone, we would need about 7kw of panels, just...

You can get cut/drilled L-track kits for the JT for less than the OE stuff. Then you can use any number of standard anchors and even mounting nuts and studs for permanent equipment. Jeep Gladiator VersaTie Track Bed Kit | macscustomtiedowns

I definitely agree most kits aren't the best value. I would add: Friends A shovel and wood cutting device of some kind; A shorter strap for potential flat towing- the cheap kind (these get messed up) Some transport chain with griper and slider hooks (for rigging the snatch block) Water and...

Part of me wants to see this hack job for myself, but I'll refrain from adding any clicks.

When we were doing NASA racing, teams were using 440, not GMRS at the track. Consider getting your Amateur radio license. There are some cool, inexpensive dual band rigs that can also run GMRS (license still technically required).
