Can the diffs handle the torque?
They already handle 450 ft lbs of torque now from the diesel, a 5.7 would be less than that and a 6.4 would barely make more. Pretty sure they’ll be fine

Diesel has ZF8HP75 transmission
3.6 has 850RE ( ZF8HP50 equivalent)

The question wasn’t about transmissions, it was about differentials.

I quit following them when she started doing OF. Their relationship already seemed weird. That was the final straw and suspicions confirmed.
Thats funny, goes to prove Jeeps are a addiction and we do all sorts of things to pay for them...

A girl needs 40's you know

It's the shock load that snaps things.

80k isn't bad for a starting price for a new vehicle. I wonder how well it will hold value? lol I buy everything used.

She’s pretty hot, I’m sure she makes good money doing it. It’s just weird to watch their channel now. I can’t take her seriously.

She's a bit weird anyway, and like I said, don't even ask a question - you'll get shot down really fast as if she doesn't want to bother. I've watched some of their responses to comments on YT and wow, what a pair.
She's there as click-bait, he uses her as such.

Hot without brains.... that would get old pretty fast. Wait until they are 65 and see how conversations go in their home.

Yeah she's the eye candy to attract all the simps and they both know it. The relationship has lasted a lot longer than I expected it to ever last, but they both have no goals and aspirations beyond the youtube channel so it might work out for them. Good for them if that's what they want out of life.


I used to watch them in their early days before they got all the high end sponsorship deals. Somewhere along the lines, the content changed and I didn't vibe with it anymore.

I met them at an Off Road show and they were real nice. She is better looking in person than pictures. Sad that she does OF with his ok. They could be such a positive influence . But they are life in the Fast Lane.

Ok, I'm clueless, who are we talking about?
