  1. Hella Valuefit 500 LEDs

    The aux switches are so nice. I have them, too and it took me longer to install the lights than it did to run the wires.
  2. Hella Valuefit 500 LEDs

    I have the same ones. They are very nice. I used a fusetap to connect the accent lights to be on all the time. Mine are mounted on the cowl and I'm thinking about connecting them to their corresponding turn signals. How did you wire yours?
  3. No battery issue!

    I have a 2020 6-speed, so ESS is turned off 99% of the time. It's an early build (6/2019) and I've owned it since 7/2019. 53k miles with the main battery replaced under warranty (probably 20k-ish mile, IIRC). 8.4 in. radio and a winch with a disconnect wired in. Its my daily driver and just this...
  4. Do we need to occasionally run the Pentastar at wide open throttle for lubrication purposes?

    I've subscribed to the saying, "a red line a day keeps carbon buildup away". I've been driving for almost 35 years. That along with buying fuel from only the big refiners (Phillips, BP, etc.), and 5k-7k oil changes with name-brand synthetic oil. So far, so good. 🤞
  5. Cover that winch, or let the elements have their way with it?

    I measured mine before I researched it on Amazon, typed in the length when I was searching, and went from there. Mine is a little wider than the winch because I wanted it to fit loosely (above the elastic) to try and encourage drying any condensation. With my bumper, it fits pretty tight to the...
  6. Cover that winch, or let the elements have their way with it?

    I have the same UV concerns about my synthetic line-equipped Warn winch. I bought a $12 waterproof cover from Amazon. I've only been using it since this past June, but there is no fading and it's remained waterproof. If it ever fails, at $12, I'll just buy another one. I also have a Warn Epic...
  7. Front mud flaps for Rubicon - show me what you have

    I have a Rubicon I've owned since July 2019. I've had the standard size RokBlokz on it since new. They've been fantastic! This pic is after about 4 hours of wheeling including a couple of Badge of Honor trails. There is almost no mud on the Jeep. I do have a couple of complaints about the...
  8. The clutch recall was recalled?

    Thanks for the follow-up.
  9. The clutch recall was recalled?

    Did you ask for the recall to be fixed or did you get a letter saying the parts are in? I only ask because I have a 2020 That I bought in July of 2019, so I should be pretty early on the list if they're going by purchase date.
  10. Soft top storage

    I have a hardtop hoist in my garage and I just hang the folded top on it after I put the hardtop back on the Jeep. I use some webbing to strap the disassembled frame to the soft top so none of it gets separated. I highly recommend you buy a soft window storage bag, too. It'll keep the window...
  11. Soft top Question...

    The soft top on my last Wrangler was the lower cost vinyl one. I had it for five years, but only used it from April to December (dual tops). I had no problems with age-related deterioration, but it was definitely fragile (I had to "patch" two tiny holes with RTV). My JT came with the premium...
  12. The clutch recall was recalled?

    Jeep may have a fix forthcoming. My neighbor just took delivery of a 6-speed JLU that she'd been waiting 7 mos. for, so fingers crossed.🤞
  13. The clutch recall was recalled?

    I have 4.10s and I rarely use 1st in 4L (I'm assuming you're in 4L when shifting to 2nd at 10 mph). I have an early JTR (bought in 7/19) and I've had all the recalls done. Even on the trails, I've NEVER had the overheat warning. From my understanding, if there is no weight of any kind on the...
  14. Mud flaps that fit Extreme Recon flares w/ picts .

    I have a Rubicon with regular flares, but I third the Rokblokz. I've had mine on since July of 2019. My only complaints are the tool-less hardware freezes itself with road grime despite being slathered with anti-seize compound (I swapped it with stainless hex hardware and I keep a matching...
  15. Learning to use a winch, safely, suggestions?

    I just bought my first winch, too. I'm also a "Mr. Safety" and have been collecting accessories. So far, I have a damper, extra shackles (2 in my winch bag and the two that live on my front bumper), mechanics gloves, and a snatch strap. I just ordered a 10 ft. ARB tree strap and I'm shopping for...
  16. The clutch recall was recalled?

    I'm just happy to see that Jeep is delivering new 6-speed JTs again. Maybe this means they'll finally have a permanent fix for my 2020.
  17. What did Santa bring your JT???

    Got a Warn Epic Sidewinder to add to my winch.
  18. Rust on my Nerf bars, remove and paint or start shopping?

    I have a pair of N-Fab rock rails with removable steps. They've been on my Jeep since September 2019. The rails started rusting at the welds fairly early on but haven't gotten noticeably worse since. The steps were clearly finished by a different powdercoater. The rust on them was much worse. My...
  19. oil filter housing breakage

    I do the same thing bd100 does. I hand thread it on until the rim of the cap meets the rim of the housing (the seam between the two pretty much disappears). I then tighten it with a ratchet just a tad over hand tight (maybe, one millimeter clockwise). I use the ratchet because I have more...
  20. Question about tonneau's and utility rails

    I bought this one from Tyger back in 2019 knowing it would be stored in my basement most of the time. I have it for long trips to keep luggage dry. It's well built for the price and has worked great for me. The aluminum Trail Rail brackets are sturdy and have remained installed for almost five...
