  1. Back up warning sensors going off.

    The Cavfab Elite definitely held my previous 38's higher than the Teraflex Alpha did. Both carriers set to the highest position. Here's comparison pics. Since I also changed the rear bumper at the same time as the carriers, note the relationship between the same exact spare and the bottom of...
  2. What have you delayed modding on your Wrangler until right after warranty expiration?

    I started the deep climb down the rabbits hole after successfully reaching the 10k mile shakedown point. By the time the aluminum steering box tsb swap came out, my 19 JLUR was pretty heavily modified and had about 33k on the odometer. I only had the factory 3 year/36k mile warranty, so I...
  3. Sexiest Jeep Alive... Round 2 voting... #11-#20

    Yeah, I should've done some campaigning and bribery myself. :CWL:
  4. So I committed the sin of buying it instead of building it.

    SpeedFlate for the win! Coiled hoses that don't drag in the mud...
  5. I stole it

    So... you made him an offer he couldn't refuse?
  6. Dodging bullets, but finally got hit

    I got busy with work this week, so it's put a pause on my hunting down a replacement cluster. I've been using the accessory Guage feature in the Off Road Pages app to keep an eye on engine temp and whatnot. I really miss having a fuel gage. I'm not at all concerned with the odometer matching...
  7. Stay 3.5” or go 4.5” lift on current setup?

    No thanks. I'm sitting at the perfect height for 40's with the 4.5" springs. Plus, my 4'10.5" wife would skin me alive if I made it higher. Climbing in and out has already earned her the right to add amateur acrobatics to her resume skills. When she jumps off of the slider, she can get the...
  8. Rubicon Factory Sway Bar Disconnect vs ORO Swayloc

    Edisconnect sway motor failures due to water intrusion were a common JK issue. The motor assembly has been improved for the JL. I've yet to hear of any issues that weren't user induced.

    Congratulations, GATORB8! And good luck in the upcoming rounds!
  10. Stay 3.5” or go 4.5” lift on current setup?

    Being the first to vote, I feel the need to explain. I built my JLUR up for rock crawling, but it also serves as my daily driver. I used to have the 3.5" Metalcloak Gamechanger and 38x13.5's, which was a great combination. I wanted to further increase the diff clearance and...
  11. Quake LED Fender Chop

    AAL revised their lenses a while back, to prevent yellowing. My 1st set started becoming yellowed after just a couple months. A few months in, and it became a light brownish. It didn't seem to get any worse over the total 2 years they were on my Jeep... After damaging one, I replaced them...
  12. CavFab Installation Experience

    The anchor locations on the body panel aren't the weak points. The factory hinges pins themselves are. For 40's and up, it's a plus to further reinforce the body panel. That's why the Cavfab Elite includes a 1-piece body panel reinforcement plate that encompasses both hinges and sits on the...
  13. spare wheel

    I spare that only ever gets used as a spare, due to 4 tire rotations, will inevitably need to be replaced from dry rot. A 5 tire rotation will get the most use out of the money spent on that spare. A default benefit of 5 tire rotations, is that the spare will always be of a known condition...
  14. Here’s my thoughts on a budget friendly lift to start off

    I'm a Metalcloak guy myself, so I am more familiar with their components. They are more akin to Rock Krawler than to aev, meaning more geared towards higher amounts of articulation that keeps the tires on the ground through deeper terrain. Metalcloak uses dual rate springs. The softer section...
  15. Here’s my thoughts on a budget friendly lift to start off

    One option is to install higher spring rate rear coils to maintain a near level Jeep when towing. Only downside is having a stiffer feeling rear when not trailering. The second option is air "helper" bags for the rear. They are simply cylindrical shaped bags with Schrader valves. When deflated...
  16. What (if any) add ons can be put on a factory JL steel bumper?

    All bolt on: -Warn winch and mounting plate -Factor55 Ultrahook and fairlead -Maximus-3 SLP bull bar (there bumper bars finish is a great match to the factory steel bumper) -Maximus-3 Stealth license plate bracket that utilizes the 3 center lower skid plate bolts -Maximus-3 pod light mount...
  17. Here’s my thoughts on a budget friendly lift to start off

    Fully agreed! A bit more money out of the gate for the Metalcloak True Dual Rate kit or the Rock Krawler equivalent, but they can both be completed in time a la carte as funds allow. In the end, it'll be less money spent because it keeps one moving in a forward direction vs doubling back and...
  18. Winch cover, leave-on or remove ?

    Yeah, the Stealth covers that they make specifically for the VR Evos and Zeon models. I didn't know that they were breathable. I actually bought one for my Zeon, but it wouldn't fit between the winch and mopar steel bumper. I then bought their Kydex spool cover, but couldn't even get that in...
