  1. Jumperless Aux Battery Bypass

    SSS and/or Tazer are fine. (I have both, and currently running with the Tazer.) You should not have any error messages. Something else is at play. Iā€™d start by charging your main battery with a *good* charger (must be 10a or better for the main battery).

  3. Soft Top window storage recommendation

    My first hand experience: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/mopar-soft-top-window-storage-bag-review.13235/ Still love it after nearly 5 years of use.

  4. Who has 30K miles or more on their JL and hasn't had any problems?

    2018 2dr, 6sp Rubi. 52,000 miles. I had the head unit replaced under warranty after it bricked itself doing an update. Also replaced the main battery. (My AUX is bypassed.) That's it!

  5. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    Whatā€™s your gear ratio? I have no issues doing this with my stock clutch and I have a very steep driveway. I have a 2dr Rubi (4.10).

  6. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    No, it just says letters will go out in April. I wouldnā€™t expect to see recalls getting done until late summer/fall based on timing of previous ones.

  7. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    Not really. Itā€™s to reduce emissions.

  8. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    Great info. This is what we need to hear about the offering from @Actman (I do like his comment that "the best way to describe our clutch is that you won't think about our clutch.") What I, and I suspect many, don't want is to install a "performance" clutch and then ruin our daily driving...

  9. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    Please, please, please post a review if you go that route. @Actman, do you have any review videos? Saw the install one and it is absolutely fantastic.

  11. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    Can you also compare with Centerforceā€™s offerings? Youā€™re at the same price point, but their kit also replaces hydraulics. People here sing the praises of CFā€™s heavy flywheel, but the fact is that most of us DD their Jeeps. Iā€™m not looking to add rev hang and a leg workout to mine, and am eager...

  12. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    I really hope I get to eat some crow, but am very doubtful that weā€™re getting new clutches.

  13. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    I donā€™t think the letter will indicate what the fix is. Itā€™s just going to be a hard copy of what is in the Jeep app and NHTSA website. My $0.02.

  14. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    Thatā€™s actually a good point given that Southbend is about the same price.

  15. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    Serious question: why do we only hear about Centerforce on this forum? Iā€™ve yet to see a single review of Southbend, for example. Edit: even YouTube has nothing for Southbend. I did find this for ACT, though.

  16. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    The ā€œfixā€ for the first recall (W12) was not available until fall of 2020ā€¦ the NHTSA announced the recall was coming in March 2020. I see from my records I had it done in October. That fix was just a plastic sleeve. Iā€™m an admitted pessimist, but Iā€™ll eat my shorts if they have a fix for a...

  17. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    I donā€™t see how they could just replace the pressure plate. If the fix is hardware, and wouldnā€™t we all be tickled if thatā€™s the case, they will have to replace the whole clutch. I just donā€™t see it happening. For the first recall they had a parts shortage for the stupid plastic sleeve. I have...

  18. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    Considering there is a stop sale on new ones, no. You still have to do this recall. šŸ˜‚ Thereā€™s no chance. They will slap on another bandage.

  19. 2-door back seat use

    Need another option: always in and tipped forward. Thatā€™s how I roll 95% of the time.

  20. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    You should install the Jeep app. (Also handy to record maintenance you do on your own. e.g. I log all the oild changes, tire rotations, etc.)
