On my JK, I have noticed a considerable difference in compressor speed with the engine off versus running at normal idle. Because the compressor is a relatively low current draw compared to a winch, I don't think you will see much of a difference running at an elevated idle speed. I never see...
Ask them what specific bushings they greased, and what specific cable & bracket they moved.
Chances are that the Service Manager is confusing FAD with sway bar disconnect.
It's hit or miss depending on tire size. I've been waiting over a year for BFG KM2 255/80R17 to come back into stock for my JK. Then I recently decided to go up in size to 255/85R17 Baja Boss ATs, only to find that they are on backorder as well. Oh well.
No, actually a little longer. There was a piece added to the center of the JKU frame.
If you google "AEV Brute", you can find a bunch more info on the Brutes.
I would take it a step further.
After the hammer & dolly work, here's what I would do for each side:
1) Clean everything thoroughly.
2) Use 2 hardened steel washers with a Grade 8 bolt & stover lock nut to clamp everything flat while covering the damage. This hardware will go in the...
They don't use axle straps because vehicles being shipped are often shipped with the suspension 'locked out' and the restraints holding the vehicle in place. They want the vehicle to stay in the exact place that they put it - no swaying side to side or bouncing up & down. This allows them to...
No way the OP will get a new Jeep just because they noticed some frame damage after purchase. The Dealer will almost certainly say that this is cosmetic damage that doesn't fall under the factory warranty. The best case would be that the Dealer will perform some half-assed fix, maybe pounding...
On the other hand, many dealers and states do not have any provision for a cooling-off period on a new car purchase Once you have purchased the new vehicle and it has been registered to you, it is a used car and the dealership wants nothing to do with taking it back. Lemon Laws are different...
Completely off topic, but I inherited some Nike Air Jordan socks from my basketball-playing son when he outgrew them. I can with 100% certainty tell you they are worth the money. Soooooooo much more comfortable than any socks I have ever worn in my 53 years on this planet. I'm convinced I can...
A slight condensation 'haze' is usually considered normal by most manufacturers as long as it goes away. However, as soon as the condensation turns into droplets it indicates a failure. Too bad these lights were purchased as take-offs, otherwise they should be covered under warranty.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you took delivery of it and drove it off the lot. It's no longer 'brand new', it's used. Once that happens, issues like this are likely not going to be covered by the dealer.
I crawled all over & under my Mojave with a flashlight before taking...
I bought the same AntennaX stubby that works great on my JK, but it was just horrible on my JT. I need it on my JK since I'm regularly in the woods and plowing through brush & branches. Luckily, my JT only sees dirt roads, so I only bought it for aesthetics. Painting the stock antenna black...
I ordered the optional Mojave black/polished wheels, which I think look great. If they weren't available, my first mod probably would have been new wheels.
But, my first mods on my JTM ended up being done within the first week or so of ownership:
Overland side steps
RB mud flaps
De-badged...
