Not to brag, but I get 13.5 MPG between my house and town (50-55mph busy suburban road with stop lights every 0.5-1 mile, 75% chance of red light), and 15.5 MPG if freeway driving (75-80mph). For those that want to achieve this excellence: 3" lift, 37" load range E tires, front bumper wings delete

Windshield. Definitely the windshield. Honestly I think about my windshield every single day. I wake up in a cold sweat worrying about my windshield. My wife left me because I wouldn't stop talking about my windshield. If only there were some kind of product, perhaps a film of some sort, that...

I hope it does the trick for you too. Same with me - I didn't order them for the longest time because I also read in multiple threads/forums that it doesn't work. This video pushed me to do it because that's the exact noise I have:

I've had this issue on all four doors. It was driving me nuts - the driver door is the worst of them, I tried the tape trick, lubing, and several other things over the last year or so. Disconnected the check for a while which removed the noise problem but it's pretty annoying to have the door...

I'm sorry to hear about your experience here. It's so fun to help random people out, connect with people that have shared interests of off-roading (of any form!), and get helped out too. A spot, a winch, a trail-side repair - man those are the best memories and the best stories, too. This...

Sounds great! He’s right about the track bar approach. You’ll probably end up doing a front - it’s noticeable enough. Rear not as likely.

Thanks for the additional knowledge, @chr15m . Also worth saying: None of this should really dissuade someone from putting Mojave suspension on a Rubicon or any other trim. It's not much of a headache. The complete solution with the right bolt size isn't a big task - just requires a drill bit...

It might not be a big deal, but it might suddenly become one. The load is no longer being carried correctly because even though the shock eye is clamped tightly between the mounts, the bolt doesn't carry the load like it normally would. Bolt fatigue, shock eye and bolt hammer each other, double...

Man I want those sliders

Are you in the CA version of Woodland Hills?

Your Jeep looks awesome. I love the wheels+tires+lift you chose - looks perfect. I think if I were to do it again I'd probably copy you.

I haven't heard this before about Teraflex - do you have a source?

Many manufacturers use a special "factory fill" oil that may contain higher levels of additives like molybdenum or zinc/phosphorus (ZDDP) to provide extra protection during the initial wear-in period. For modern engines, manufacturers usually recommend not changing the oil too early (e.g., at...

A valid point for sure, however, additional ground clearance is valuable in its own rite. Compromising possible articulation gained from longer springs in favor of keeping the 8"-travel Mojave shock qualities can be desirable because you still get increased ground clearance from both the...

This is what I use as well for my 3.5" of lift with my Mojave shocks.

With 1" of lift you're still well within the bypass zone, so you're fine. Here's a graphic I made a while back of the shock zone specs. See my post history for more if you're interested.

The front shocks are 20.25" long at ride height (eye to eye). They are 15.75" when compressed, 23.75" when extended. That 8" of total travel is divided between 4.5" of compression and 3.5" of extension when traveling away from the ride height length. The rear shocks are 22.25" at ride height...

Desert Speed Shock Tuning in Utah will revalve and tune factory Mojave shocks. @Huhnowwhat got his done there and speaks highly of the shop.

Ah, I don't have a diesel, so I just had the non-diesel Clayton springs. They gave me 4" in the front. The 4" Synergy springs gave me 3.5" in the front, for what it's worth even though it's not apples to apples compared to your diesel.

I originally had the 3.5" Clayton springs all around and felt the same way. I switched to Synergy springs - much softer. I went with their 4" springs in the front and 3" springs in the rear to be level (I'm not pulling trailers).
