I bought my JTR last August, and for much of the past year debated, re-debated, and re-re-debated with myself about lifting this thing and getting bigger tires. After all that was done, I reached the decision to get the DualSport kit, AEV Pintler 17" tires, and 37" Mickey Thompson Baja Boss...
Yeah, I bought those and use them for the same reason - protecting the leather seat from dog damange. I use them with another cheapo hammock style on top of them to keep the dogs from jumping into the front seat, and like @JEEPmonkey I got the Thinkskinz door protection.
Honestly, the fit of...
Hat tip to you sir, thank you for your service! Also, thank you for being a wonderul example of someone with a great attitude in the face of some really cruddy stuff happening to you. When I was in college in the 80's I was in multiple accidents over the span of six months that all weren't my...
Wow, reading through this thread helped me see the grass isn't greener. I use a service not even mentioned - Youtube Music - which is essentially the old Google Play Music service. As a very early subscriber to Google Play Music I've been grandfathered in to a super cheap rate, plus after the...
I can't comment on the Ceramic coating, but depending on the brand/type of window coating that price might not be too bad. I got all interior (including windshield) w/Llumar ceramic tint (windshield no tint, just UV) and it is immensely worth it heat wise, which was about $650 a year ago...
For me the Tazer Mini live function that automatically disables the license plate illumination lights while reversing is worth the $300, all the other features are gravy. :)
The 39 BFG I've found is the KM3, the dimensions listed are 38.5 inches... which from everything I've found on this site tells me it would NOT fit under the bed. The General Grabber ATX is true 37" and it has been listed as not fitting under the bed. I'm not certain if getting a Clayton...
I got 5 Pintlers sitting in the garage for 12 days now, they were delivered right before I got hit with the 'Rona... Am going to get 37's, and have been doing my own ton of analysis trying to decide. If you go 35's it will be cheaper, I'm looking at between 2k and 2.4k depending on which 37 I...
Exodus 4x4 --- range from ~32k to 70k+ --- all depends on how many pockets you have to empty I guess. Looks like can even empty one of those Michael Jackson Beat It video jacket's worth of pockets. ;) For me, on the list of "lottery money" things to do. But as noted, once you've opened this...
Exactly, and sadly find themselves deflated. Today's world gets crazier by the minute. But OP definitely makes a great point, spousal units may very well approve onboard air upgrades now. ?
Any other case, I'd say it's your rig do as you want. But since you already shy away from angry eyes, I'd say go with your reservations - if you already don't like angry eyes, they likely won't grow on you. More likely they'll stay an annoyance to you until you remove it. I personally don't...
It's not coming, it's all here. The garage is full of packages dropped off this week, but the dang Rona got me on Wednesday, still fighting fever today. Going to be another week before can start installing:
AEV DualSport RT kit
Apex power steering booster and tank
Teraflex Falcon Nexus EF 2.2...
Looking forward to seeing pics from your trip. Next summer, Lord willing, I'll have my rig built out to be able to more confidently hit trails I've never been to. Hot Springs looks like a great spot.
Done a ton of searching, haven't found specific confirmation of such. Am considering them because I like the brand, and the true 37 measurement, plus they're about ~$40 cheaper a tire. Wheels are AEV Pintlers. If the Generals won't fit, then plan B will be KO2's or perhaps Nitto Recon...
Howdy - I don't own one, but have many colleagues that do have them here in Austin. All with various flavors of Tesla. Their feedback has been very useful and insightful for me. First, they all love the fact that our employer provides charging stations for free, which they take full advantage...
Yup, battery based EV's are cool, but are not a completely viable alternative to ye olde gas and diesel vehicles. Based on all the skewed and spun data on environmental benefits/detriments, I'm not sure I trust anything reported until there is fully open kimono "here's our data, here's our...
