  2. Opened door won't drive

    Buckle you belt . It thinks the doors are off . You can then drive with the door open .
  3. Front Axle Disconnect.

    I used a quality red wheel bearing grease , and tossed some diff lube in the bearing and over shaft and moving parts for good measure ( think cam lube levels of lubricant) . I wasn't shy. Still no issues , working properly.
  4. just purchased

    Sometimes getting a good deal is more about getting what you want than how much you save in the process .. Obviously there are limitations , but walking away 1/2 satisfied while getting the cheapest price will quickly wear away . I just faced this decision and went all in . I am happy I didn't...
  5. Who else is happy with the Pentastar?

    It's just alright . Does the job no complaints there . A diesel would be better in my current state of build for fuel mileage. However entry cost, fuel cost ,and maintenance would probably average out ... Maybe . I will say the 2.0T in our JLU absolutely seals the show between it and the 3.6.
  6. No Rubicon Red Dash

    I have a gecko Rubicon with black cloth heated seats and dark grey dash . All from the factory .
  7. Your Jeep's name

    It's either the green jeep (as apposed to our yellow JL) , the truck , the green one . Officially it's name is Martin because it's gecko. Our JL is Rakkit because all or noises it makes while off-road .
  8. For those of you running 37s

    Remember Rubicon's have wider axles ( unless you have a max tow) . Also Rubicon fenders are slightly wider I believe . I honestly haven't compared fender coverage in relation to axle width between the narrow and wide setups tho.
  9. For those of you running 37s

    Zero offset is fine , but if you want to maximize back side clearance and tuck the tire as much as possible zero offset 8.5" wheel width is where it's at . Gives you the best blend of wheel width , front , and backside clearance. Remember a zero offset 9" wheel has a different backspace than a...
  10. How many of you guys run 37s on stock 4.10 gears?

    4.10s and 37s are livable if you're flat and at lower elevation . However it's less than ideal for sure , and you are knee capping the capabilities for your truck. Not to mention it's easier on the upstream components . I ran stock gears for a short time , and it only took one highway trip to...
  11. 6-Speed 4.10s with 37s Need Some Help

    I'd go 5.13 . It's like having 4.88s with a bit of reserve for hills, windy days , towing , or hauling . Your clutch will thank you also .
  12. Sport S, 3.73, 35s with 2” Mopar Lift

    Manual or auto trans ? Where do you live ? Elevation / terrain Normal highway speed ( 55?65?75+?) Do you plan to tow or haul ? Often? The short answer is with the gas engine a regear is the rite way to go for 35s/3.73. Will the truck operate with 35s and 3.73s daily , yes . But I would...
  13. For those of you running 37s

    If you want to tuck inside the stock fenders and still have a bit of poke I suggest a (your choice) x9 wheel and +12-+18 offset . It will tuck and clear a 12.50 on a stock arm or aftermarket arms with a clearance bend. You can clear bigger rubber 13.50 or 38s but it gets tight at the lca on...
  14. The Glady you have always wanted

    I think they are screwing with people that lack self control... I actually have their budget stubby on mine and it's pretty damn nice .
  15. Just wondering if it’s just me?

    Definitely not just you . Guilty over here also . If you honestly can't say you ever turn back to admire your ride , you are probably driving the wrong vehicle. Just sayin ..
  16. Thinking of buying a Gladiator

    I'll play . Let me preface first. I've owned and driven over 100 vehicles to date , and I'm 41. Take that for something, or not.?. My last 5 2018 Tacoma TRD 6spd 33s 2018 jeep JL Rubicon 2dr 6spd 34s 2019 Chevy Colorado zr2 gas auto 34s 2021 jeep JLU W 2.0t 8spd auto 35s still have it! 2021...
  17. Commuter Tire for 21 Willy's

    takeoff rubi JL or JT tires and wheels would cheap and effective. Even use the same lugnuts , and factory wrench .
  18. Tires, Gears, and MPG

    I live in Michigan, fall temps , pretty flat , low elevation . 37x12.50 stt pro ,4.10s drove great , but maybe saw 16-17mpg on road trips at 70mph. 8th was barely used , 7th pretty much always . 2" front and 1.5" rear . Stubby bumper and fender chop , tazer speedo corrected . 5.13 ...
  19. Front Axle Disconnect.

    I going to chime in here on my own personal findings . My JTR started making the intermittent rumble strip sound which became more and more frequent. I couldn't get an appointment for service for 4 weeks min anywhere in my area. I decided to look at an exploded view of the fad/ axle shafts ...
  20. 40 Coopers STT tire pressure

    I would say if chalking , once you hit the max psi with proper contact patch for your tire any lower would yield diminishing returns . And on a light loaded glad 1 psi in a 40x13.50 is more like several in a 33/35 due to volume . Personally I would think 22 cold is low . 24-26 maybe in range tho...
