As a baseline, my May 19 2022 Rubicon build has Fox

The one time I tried one of those, a Coleman heater of some sort, the CO alarm went off immediately. That was the end of the experiment for me. Question re stoves - ”white gas” is just gasoline without all the additives that make gasoline engines happy. Is the objection to these additives...

I had a quadlock system on several long distance bicycle tours in Europe and the US. Worked great for that application, mounting a phone in a burly case on the bike stem for thousands of miles. Positive retention on the cleat, positive retention to the stem with zipties as well as VHB tape...

Probably should install these with the Hellwig. Cheap insurance, easy to install (except they ship the wrong thread on the included longer bolt, so add +$8 from the hardware store)

That's a good question, I'm curious about that too. If you unzip the outer mesh, there's easy access in between the two layers of tent canvas. Might be pretty straightforward to sew up some insulation pieces to slip in there for winter camping. I'd be curious to see if it affected folding up.

So is the “JL” application in the OP a typo? Or are you valving these for the JL and just figuring it’ll work for the JT

I didn't look into what suspension GFC is running, but I have seen a bent Glad frame repair video on youtube that was a King coilover conversion. So instead of suspension loads being split into spring force at the stock spring bucket, and shock force at the upper shock mount, 100% of force with...

(and now that $121 each price has gone to $261, at least for me)

I'm seeing Load Range D, Light Truck tires. looks like the real deal to me... https://www.walmart.com/ip/Milestar-Patagonia-A-TR-All-Terrain-Tire-37X12-50R17-LRD-6PLY-Rated/531764821

Does AEV publish their spring rates anywhere?

Update: since picking up the Alu-Cab on Thusday, I've been finding that I get better SXM reception driving south than driving north. I assume this is due to their geostationary satellite's location over the Equator, so there's a better line of sight southward to that sat than the other lower...

I can answear this firsthand now… Pretty bad. It receives sometimes, but mostly not. And when it is receiving, it drops out under every single freeway overpass. I don’t recall it ever doing that before the ACCC went on

Thanks very much for the detailed write-up

I’m also confused why anyone is talking about the MSRP as a relevant price. If you paid MSRP, I feel bad for you, but you got took. Invoice for the diesel alone is $3609. Lots of us here are paying 6-8% less than that. $3341 engine option vs $4010 vs lol $8000….One might start to think that...

I will just say that memory foam + winter = abject misery. Consider having a cold weather backup solution. No joke, it's terrible. I only had a 2" memory foam topper in my old truck but ffffff.... Imagine sleeping on plywood, frozen hard, pulling heat out of your body at a rate you didn't...

Anyone know if there’s any difference between Mopar 68436631AA and 68382328AB? Both seem to show the same Gladiator and Wrangler diesel fitments. The AA part number also seems to cover the Ram 3.0L and 6.7L trucks

I really like the Next Venture design that puts a wide flange all along the frame rails. All the others use the stock cross-members, or ones like them, that stick up proud of the frame rail. Every example I see like that that’s been well used, the cross-member mounts are mangled and flattened...

How bad is the reception with the camper? (Before relocation)

@LAJEEPR Did you use the Maximus-3 bracket for the JL? https://maximus-3.com/home/maximus-3-jl-satellite-antenna-relocation-bracket ?

I'll put in a word for the MP Concepts aluminum bumper. Cheap-ish all-aluminum copy of the Mopar steel bumper. It claims only to fit the JL Wrangler but obviously the JT has the same front end so it goes on without issue. Includes a steel winch plate (which for the record does need trimming...
