What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[Bricazo]

There's a noticeable difference over the stock shocks, but the largest bump I rolled over was a large neighborhood speed bump on a test drive. They're a little more bouncy at the slower speed, but still smooth. I'm waiting to get the rear shocks on next weekend to get a better feel for them altogether. So far, I like the way the fronts feel.

The stabilizer is making a difference. The ATS gives you the flexibility of adjusting the firmness of the steering. The factory setting was pretty reasonable, but I like it just a little bit softer for now.

What setting u have the stabilizer on? I set it to 12( half way).. it drives like a dream on the highway now!

I left it at the factory setting & took it around the block. I won't get a chance to take it on a real test drive until this weekend when I can get the rear shocks on & experiment with it to get a feel for the right setting. I'll certainly try half-way. Thank you for sharing that.

Installed the Rough Country relocation bracket. Gonna drop her off at the shop to get lifted with new shoes while I’m off to NYC to eat a bunch of food. Still need to figure out what to do for the spare tire bump stop extension. Any recommendations?

I saw a YouTube video that used these rubber leg tips from Home Depot. I'm going to try these out in 2 weeks when I get my install done.

Oh sweet. Maybe I’ll try this with the garbage disposal hose spot above and combine the two!

I was looking @brazos pic thinking “I’m pretty sure he resembles a surgeon general”, but I couldn’t put my finger on which one. Thanks for clearing that up. Lol

And @brazos at least he didn’t say you looked like Janet Reno.

Hello All! Its been awhile since I posted my jeep's changes. I swapped out the oil and filter (bought clearanced Mobil One filters. 8 of them for $3 each at Walmart), rotated the tires, added the UPR catch can, Installed the topsy hard top lift brackets, cut the hood vents bottoms out, installed a soft top.(got it from a local ad on CL for $550), swapped the the lower front spring pads with Rockwrawler ones (straighten out the mopar lift springs) installed the Teraflex trackbar relocation brackets.(front and rear)( The jeeps axles were off to the left 1/2 inch after the Mopar lift, now it's to the right .25 inch.)(If I had to do it over again, I would skip the relocation brackets, it rode better before) Added the RR third brake light ring and cancelled my RR HD Spartacus tire carrier. Ordered the EVO one. (RR wasn't going to ship until September)

Hey Guys,

I don't know who needs to hear this but ...I just checked out the Infotainment website and they are selling the HVAC Control panel kits with a jumper to get the volume and ac controls back after upgrading from the 5in radio.

Absolutely nothing. Held up waiting on parts from Northridge. Going on 4 weeks.

 

[Martindfletcher]

Those look great. Are you going to run limiting straps?

I think it’s on the edge as to whether it’s optional or not. To be clear these shocks are 3/4 inch longer than RK’s spec. In the real world it seems ok, in the garage I can get the spring loose, but don’t think it can come out.

Also should note the front AAL inner fenders required some modification, it cut easy with Dremel, and I have a slight interference fit with elbow from shock to reservoir line. I got them on. I assume they will conform after the 37 smacks them a few times

These will work fine. Many of us have used this, or something similar, along with pvc.

 

[melendez69]

I need to do this..... haven’t been in hurry because my spare rests on my plasticrap bumper. The one and only good thing about it...... Is that 1” pvc? Irrigation pipe or schedule 40?

I used pvc risers... smaller, and easier to cut down to the nubby sizes I needed. Took me about 4 pieces to get it right.
