Yep I remember when the manufacturers used to sue the EPA for the consumers. Sadly Wall Street bought into planned obsolescence and now work hand in hand doing whatever the EPA says no matter how much it goes against physics, efficiency, durability, life cycle, or the engineering of all of the...

Government is deputizing and forcing the free market to do their dirty work. It's the USSSR blueprint for controlling the means of production. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

How is the ride and handling on the streets with the ORI's vs factory vs Kings? Just picked up a stock one just like it last week at auction for $36k. Trying to figure out my plans.

If you look at the RPM band Torque drops off at 3k RPM. Over 3k RPM you're just creating more heat under load. Everything over 3k is really only useful for romping around town empty. Same with my 3.0L Dmax.

Button? You slap the gear shifter to the side and toggle it forward and backwards to select gears. For shits and giggles Jeep engineers designed it ass backwards. Up is down and down is up. The M stands for Manual to the left of the shifter.

Controlling the means of production by using Nox to handicap, cut diesel efficiency. Who is going to buy a $60k Model 3 with a fraction of the range of a $30k TDi Jetta getting 70-80 mpg? Many countries in Europe had 7x or more diesel vehicles in operation despite having zero difference in...

FYI diesels doesn't create brown smog. And the largest contributor of Nox is marshland, which environmental agencies in California are reintroducing million of acres of throughout the Bay Area, highly populated area btw. Actually London experienced the greatest threat of smog ever during the...

They are not very hard to make or have made. If you want one made you just have to make a template of what you need and have any machine shop cut you a plate. Machined it the way to go because you can have them integrate the groove for the gasket, should it need one.

Anything yet?????? I don't care what anyone's personal opinion is. Don't want more power then move along. They need to stay in their yard and I'll stay in mine. World has too many Karen's, Hitlers, and narcs.

More! I haven't done personal testing in a place I know with no traffic yet that I test all my kits on but I've done 55 there with my other daughters diesel Canyon on 35"s and they absolutely soak them up way better than a Majave. As long as you're getting a kit with the 2.5 remote res shocks...

Backed off to take the picture, but 40 PSI.

How I'd want it. I'm running a cooler with 3x the volume of the Bulletproof Engineer one. I've never seen more than 212 oil temps fully loaded, on a grade, in the hottest SW US conditions on a 500 rwhp truck.

90-99% of the time it'll be on the road. As so we absolutely LOVE our Icon. We have the top end stage 7 though cause the 10% we off road it's either on our ranch in NorCal outside of Redding or having a fun family weekend at Hollister Hills. Not a hard core rock crawler system but to us ICON...

Loving our Icon Stage 7. Road driving is an absolute blast while still having top level off road capability.

Oil temps should never be more than coolant temps if the cooling system is engineered properly. I run 37"s on all my SD with 3.31 - 3.73. Older trans with less gear sets have a harder time carrying loads. As the newer designs have multiple gearsets carrying the load, displacing the energy...

I too have both. I felt that the GM LM2 feels more like an American industrial design diesel than the EcoDiesel does. The 3rd Gen EcoDiesel feels way better than it did in my nephew's RAM 1500. The GM is my daily driver and the Gladiator is our lifestyle rig. I haven't had a chance to tow...

I'd rather drop a trans really quick to swap it out than tear the entire front assembly apart. I can do it in a fraction of the time. I have a EcoDiesel Glad, two LM2 Sierra, and a LM2 Yukon showing up for the wife here in a couple weeks. We need to be grateful we still have diesel options in...

I went the high end with a Stage 7 Icon. I was thinking about it the other day and Jeep should make a max tow package with rear Leaf Springs for those overlanding and wanting to really tow. Coils are great for ride quality, desert, and sand. But it's 2020 and leaf springs can flex almost as...

Oh you are referring to me. lol I never changed my location back to Cali. I'm only 30 minutes from Hollister Hills.

How's Katemcy and Wolf Cave? I've got some property in Fredericksburg but never had a chance to go out to either and check out the trails.
