Hold up....so with a manual shift JT you can't do a pop-the-clutch rolling restart like any other manual shift vehicle? Even if the vehicle's ignition is in "run" mode?
Hi I'm Greg I'm pretty new here and new to Jeeps in general.
I like punk rock and Lone Star beer and breakfast any time of day.
Here's my '23 Willys Sport.
You're assuming these things are built perfectly gapped and square to begin with.
I really doubt that.
But still get it checked. An easy preliminary check is just to just have the alignment looked at. A frame problem will definitely show up with wonky alignment readings. With your kind of...
This is the delicate conundrum I face with mine. The Gladiator is a pickup truck. I want it lifted and able to do some burly Jeep things, but I also need to use the bed and if it's lifted too much that obviously is a problem for loading and unloading. The 3.5" F/2.5" R lift on mine gives it a...
Again I'm still very new at this but my own research agrees. The offerings from Clayton and MetalCloak seem to be a way better value currently for similar lifts.
....and my curiosity is....WHY?
Seems to me it's awfully expensive for what it is, what you get, and you could do much better and get way more value with other aftermarket kits.
So why do people even bother with this thing? No judgement, genuine curiosity. I'm new to this and don't understand...
I've been to and have had people to my house for various P2P internet deals and sales. Being an active musician I'm always buying and selling stuff. The absolute sketchiest deals I've ever done have always been in public spaces where you think it would be safer.
I sold a guitar one time at 6...
I've never hit a deer....knock on wood....but I really don't understand how an animal that flinches at the mere sound of a twig being stepped on would allow itself to be smashed by a huge lumbering vehicle that it can easily see and hear coming from far away.
I don't think it looks goofy. I love the fender delete. It was one of the first things I wanted to do. I put some small flat flares on the wife's JL and while I had it stripped down I was like...yeah I'm doing it to mine. It's a little "extreme" but it's unique. I don't care if I throw mud and...
Thanks. I keeps it clean. It really only sees the beach and filthy dive bars for now. I'm not in an off-roading kind of area. But it'll see some west Texas time this winter.
Hi I'm Greg, I drive a 2023 Willys JT. For the hellish backstory about my drama with Extreme Terrain/Teraflex, read here:

While all that was going on, Matson @Metalcloak sent me a PM and very unbelievably...
I know what it means. Since we're making up cute names for biased for-profit-news businesses that use initials I needed a pejorative "F" word for the F in "FOX" and "fascist" fit the bill in that case.
I could have gone with "fat" but I already had the O pegged for "overweight". Hey its just...
If misleading "news" leading to bad things on and from their audience is the point, then the Fascist Overweight Xenophobe network is even more guilty. I mean, let's be fair here. They're all the same. It's just which side of the seesaw do you sit on? "News" is a business and those businesses...
In my experience, howling from the gears will happen right away if there's a problem with their installation. Gear noise won't wait tens of thousands of miles later UNLESS something else has gone wrong to disrupt the gear meshing. You could have a bearing gone south that is making noise and/or...
Well I dig it. Like a fastback.......high speed camping!
I see others' concerns...the angled top looks slick but it costs space and you can't stick nuthin on top...but so what? It's your rig and it certainly looks unique. Cool!
Sure, but people bashing a specific news network (in this case CNN) as if they're not all two sides of the same stupid coin reeks of partisanship.
If you pre-determine "news" as not trustworthy because of political cult groupthink, well, that's silly. They're all biased and for-profit, but if...
