  1. What oil are you guys running?

    I have been using Wix and/or NAPA Gold oil filter for the past 10 years in 3.6 Penstars. I have also found WalMart sells Mopar filters and found some on clearance a while back. You may have luck checking your local store. KevinC
  2. Central Florida Dealer service department recommendations

    I haven't heard of any "bad" service departments in and around the CF area. The worst was Bob Dance back in the day, but I may be showing my age. I have been to Advantage in Mt. Dora for the steering TSB and they did me right. I bought my JTR from Autopark and when I did a recon of their...
  3. Florida Roll Call!

    Great picture of a great color. Congrats and welcome. KevinC
  4. Who else is happy with the Pentastar?

    What was the 1st Gen? My experience was the 3.8L mated to the 4sp auto found in the 2007-2011 (1st. Gen?) was a terrible combo. This same 4sp was also used in the 2003?-2006 TJ with the 4.0L and it was not without issues. The 2012-2018 3.6L was mated to a more reliable 5sp auto (2nd Gen?)...
  5. Hard top maintenance

    Yes. Then wipe with clean rag to smooth it out and wipe off any excess.
  6. Hard top maintenance

    A old boaters secret to restoring weather faded plastics and fiberglass. I have used this stuff on fenders and hard tops for the past 20 years. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Flood-Penetrol-1-Qt-Clear-Paint-Additive-FLD4-04/100130893#product-overview
  7. GPS mapping app for Uwharrie

    As stated above, just stop at ElDorado Outpost before venturing out. There you will find a paper map that will get you around. I personally prefer paper maps when offroading. Also get the chicken biscuit while there. You may find some other Jeepers staged that you can ride with. I wouldn't...
  8. Factory Alpine Premium sound system

    Kevin - Negative. None that I could see. I also did not put the capacitors on that came with the replacements. Infinity 3.5 or Kenwood 4 KevinC
  9. Factory Alpine Premium sound system

    I completely agree with this. I am not going to get into a debate over speakers. I try not to take offense to people telling me I am wrong. Sometimes it is hard. I don't have a video to prove my findings, so some here will still tell me I'm wrong. I have changed out the two 3.5" dash speakers...
  10. Factory Alpine Premium sound system

    The speakers are the same across all trim models. The Premium Alpine upgrade consists of the Amp and Subwoofer.
  11. Roll Bars

    Prototype one off from Bruiser Conversations out of Clearwater FL.
  12. Start/stop not active Battery Charging.

    There a numerous threads on this issues already going. You may be best reading some of them and finding the related solution to your issue. BLUF - Maybe Maybe Plenty Yes
  13. A case and use for a simple 2"-2.5" lift?

    I stand corrected, my bad. I was thinking about the body lifts and how they only raise the body off the frame. A suspension lift does in fact raise the frame. I admit when I error. KevinC
  14. Is anyone else’s steering worse after the steering box upgrade?

    The TSB calls for the vehicle to have an alignment done after install of new box. Even if you toe is not set correctly it can have negative effect during cornering. Was your steering wheel correctly centered? KevinC
  15. A case and use for a simple 2"-2.5" lift?

    I am incorrect in this post and stand corrected in my error. Not correct - How will a suspension lift raise the transfer case skid plate that is bolted to the frame? What about the gas tank skid? It won't. The breakover angle of a JT will not change with a suspension lift. The only way you are...
  16. So this just happened

    Congratulations. It looks like Granite, which goes well with the Mohave Orange accents. Well done. KevinC
  17. A case and use for a simple 2"-2.5" lift?

    Both of you need to understand a suspension lift kit, whether "budget" spacer lift or full blown spring, control arms and track bar kits, will net you ZERO extra ground clearance. For someone new reading this they may think suspension lifts are ground clearance saviors. The only thing that...
  18. Badges earned in Ocala Nat’l Forest

    Yes, Salt Spring Campground will be the closest one to the trail that will have electric and hook-ups. The summer rain is here in Central Florida and I would expect the trail to have a good amount of water from now till October. Good luck.
  19. Thoughts on Kenwood KFC replacement speakers?

    A good quality coaxial speaker to replace the dash is going to drown the lower kick speakers out. Most all of the sound you are hearing is coming from the dash. My advise, replace them first and see how it sounds. It may save you the frustration and expense of replacing the lower kicks.
  20. The one that got away...

    My first. I bought with my own hard worked money mowing grass and picking watermelons. Paid $900.00 69 Scout 800B
