The winch plate is made in the US, it's the Maximus-3 plate and it's very stout. I know Superwinch has winches made in the US but I'm not sure the one I bought is. I've had Superwinches on previous jeeps and I've never had any issues with them.
well as expected...road side assist weren't much help...but that wasn't the point of getting them really, i just wanted it documented on Jeeps database that a mechanic has looked at the car and photographed that its cooling system reservoir is clearly empty.
Road side assist got out of their...
Oh wow...and i thought i was having problems!
What you have described above, i recognise many of those same symptoms in my car...its uncanny.
What really saddens me about all of this, i really love my car...i just want to be able to drive it, to wash it, do all the stuff those who care about...
Maximus-3, Grimm, Warn all have winch plates for the factory steel bumper that are robust and work with the APEX 12000 without drilling new holes in the plate. Make sure you get the right one for your Jeep.
Edit to add, Metalcloak also has one for the JT but I do not know if it works with the...
Looking to flat tow our JTRD and prefer to use a flat tow rated winch bumper. (Preferred over a baseplate or the Maximus 3 tow loops.) The only tow rated bumpers (vs those that are strong enough but not rated) I have found are the LOD and the Rock Hard.
So, am I lucky enough to posted this on...
Installed the MAXIMUS-3 XLP bumper hoop and Rock Ridge Euro (aluminum) headlamp guards at 4am. Also shortened my steel bumper. Just back from deployment. Good therapy.

This is in reference to Post # 28 in this thread, from Maximus Gladius (Nov 30, 2024).
Those are the wrong pages (pp. 6-7). Right document, wrong pages. Lubricant class 11A (shown above) does not apply to ZF 8HP50 / Chrysler 850RE 8-speed automatic transmissions.

Thanks, yeah I have the 3 inch Diesel Adventure-X "No Limits" Long Arm System installed. You can check out my build thread for more stuff I have done to it. I have a lot more stuff for it but just haven't had time to get it installed. Hopefully in the next few weeks I will have time to get it...
I know that’s gonna take forever believe me, but I was just quoting what Lakes Speed junior typically says lol. Optimally every 15,000 miles you should change it and anytime you’ve been through water. So going off of that you’re talking about 45,000 miles on each oil so that’s a combined of...
