I believe so. by deep enough you mean the thread depth/length of the threaded passage in the lug nut? (For lack of a better way to describe it). I’m assuming the acorn/conical taper is standard. These (below) are what I’m using. I’ve also tried the stock Willys (JT) lugnuts for a short time and...

I’ve been using acorn style JT lug nuts (gorilla) on a set of stock JK rims (2018) for winter. The lug nuts keep loosening after a few hundred miles. I always torque wrench them and have checked against two different wrenches. Since the hub bore is the same does anyone know if there’s something...

yeah so I’ve seen. Was there FAD delete involved?

no issue at all. It’s in their charts isn’t it?

I don’t disagree with you, I’m just saying that it’s not an uncommon thing with RCV half shaft with FAD delete kits. You can find the posts on here, that’s where I read them (or the JL forum, can’t remember) regardless, either their (rcv) QC sucks or it’s an issue in general with them at high...

I’m pretty certain that driveline vibrations aren’t uncommon when a FAD is deleted requiring balancing of the half shafts. It’s seems likely then that with a locked FAD a perfectly normal half shaft would also have vibrations at high speed. Whether or not it’s normal or actually outta spec I’m...

same here. I average about 17mpg with summer fuel blends and shedding my winter rack, gear and hard top with liner and butyl sound insulation. I’m at 14.5mpg with my winter gear and fuel blends. I am lifted with 12.5x35s and heavy duty rock rails steel bumper lightweight winch etc.

Nope, they are useless after a few miles of sticky snow. My fog lamps and off-road lamps are hot enough if I remember to uncap them otherwise my indoor light bar helps but does scatter light a bit from being up so high and snow…

By “hum” do you mean gear whine? Mine hums quite a bit since my re-gear (I’d call it a hollow whine without the high pitched end). It hasn’t gotten worse at all but does it in those exact ranges of speed when letting off the gas and coasting for a bit. It’s not annoying but is the prominent...

Awesome! However, since it’s me who drives It most and I’ve lost over 25lbs in the last few months (and I’m a hairy dude), well, that bouncing ain’t pretty. Lol!

seems you and I might have warranty claims but I’m certain that most dealers and Jeep will say we off-roaded. My response will be, well no shit I went off-roaring! What the hell else do you get a lift for? Speed bumps?

Drag link works, I don't generally have a lot of lateral movement with bumps (some bump steer but it's more diagonal or in the trajectory of the Jeep at that very moment due to the bounciness I'm dealing with.). Honestly, I have had zero issues with wobble or lateral/camber stability so I'm...

Have about 17,000 miles on my Mopar lift steel bumper and lighter weight Warn Evo up front. Yeti track bar and drag link with attenuator and front control arms dialed in to 6ish caster. Willy’s so my lift gave significantly more than two inches. Anyhow, over the last few months I’ve noticed the...

It sounds like the advisory is to open it up look for corrosion and if it’s corroded get a new one. Anyone and everyone on here can do this “recall”. I don’t see in the advisory that they are recommending replacing them all, I believe it’s just inspect them all and don’t use them until they are...

Sadly they took the old one and sent it back to Falken...

Isn't that why we should touch things with an elbow or something not crucial if burned?--The temptation to do so is irresistible so...

Yeah, I'm pretty happy about it. They do confiscate the original tire (sadly) but that makes sense. I'm a very happy camper. I'm sure I could have found someone to plug it and it would have probably been perfectly fine considering where it was but at least this way there are no concerns either...

This post exactly. Thank you for the suggestion! Unfortunately they won't let me plug and keep the old one (for obvious reasons), LOL. As of this afternoon I'll be driving on a brand new tire since I was only at 1/32nd wear.

Lol never hurts to ask. Falken actually is replacing it after I sent them pics. Discount Tire just grunted when I told them to call Falken. They were so set on me buying a new one and the DT warranty guilt trip.

Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws. Because I'm only at 1/16 wear they (Falken) are replacing the tire.
