  1. Windshields - What's Your High Score?

    Yep, and they were nice enough to tell me I could wait on my warranty claim for the ore hit, and get it replaced later if more damage occurred. Offered to give me a substantial discount on a replacement later as well, if I didnt want to get it replaced under warranty before the 2 year mark...
  2. AccuAir Off-Road | JL Wrangler Forums Intro

    My AccuAir JL kit arrived today, and that is a lot of stuff. Will not be able to get to the install for a few weeks here, but I am trying to figure out where all I can start working on it to get some steps done before getting into the actual suspension parts that will need to be all done at...
  3. Windshields - What's Your High Score?

    Our first windshield made it just over a year, and we replaced it due to crack spreading across from a tiny chip. We installed the Jeep Hyperformance Tough windshield. Been 2.5 years with that now even though we had a near baseball sized chunk of ore from a rock hauler truck hit is and leave a...
  4. Steel vs. Aluminum Bumper

    Same here - aluminum Patriot full-width and synthetic rope winch setup. 3.5 years and that bumper lower skid section has taken a beating with no issues at all. Probably would go with the mid-width now if I did it over, but the full one has not gotten in the way of anything we have done so far.
  5. Xtreme Recon - Removing Steering Stabilizer fixes the right drift issue

    There really is not much they are going to align on a Wrangler, as the only adjustable component on stock components is toe. Toe would evenly apply to both wheels, as it is a single adjustment for the entire tie rod, so that doesn't really contribute to pulling to one side on its own. The...
  6. Is the Wrangler JL Reliable enough for a 10k road-trip?

    Our 2020 was towed 30,000 miles behind our RV and driven another 40,000 miles over a few years as our only means of transportation, while also being used on some of the most challenging trails in several locations around the country (see profile pic). We have had issues, but it never left us...
  7. Badge of Honor Program - Help Please

    They take various times to be sent. I think they do large batch production and then wait until they run out of enough of them to order replacements. We have then take anywhere from 2 weeks to a few months in the past, and it just took a full year to get ours from our Hidden Falls run in Texas...
  8. Going to 4.88 or 5.13 for 37s?

    All the talk about 8th gear on this is a bit silly really - the main point for me was that accelerating from a stop was noticeably sad with 37s on the 4.10s - regardless of engine the gearing was just not appropriate at that ratio, and with the 3.6 is even more apparent. 4.88s are plenty for 37s...
  9. 2.5” Lift and Driveshafts

    Very true - you point out something people might often ignore in these questions, which is that it is easy to incorrectly assume with lift height we would use an appropriately matched shock length for that lift, which would net just about the same max extension length overall - but you could...
  10. 2.5” Lift and Driveshafts

    I haven't needed a drive shaft change to have my 3ish inches of lift from the Mopar lift kit, and I have wheeled mine pretty hard for 3 years now. I think 3.5 - 4 inches is where it is a necessity, though I am sure the extra angle even with smaller lifts does add stress over time. You will need...
  11. Why Are People So Quick To Get Oversized Tires And A Lift?

    Ummmm - "Disregarding the obvious off-road performance advantages (better breakover angle, increased water fording capability, and better approach/departure angles)" Well ok then.
  12. Rubicon has gone up $5000 since 2021?

    Umm, well, the real inflation rate seems to be higher than the Jeep price increases, so not really a surprise. Luxury goods are the things that will increase most readily to match inflationary pressures on their costs to manufacture, and Jeeps are really not necessity items to just about anyone...
  13. Did Mopar just steal my warranty?

    I agree that it makes sense it was a mistake, and always be nice to folks when you can, but nothing is worse than immediately jumping to the "it will be hard to fix" crap. Cannot stand dealing with people that do not want to do anything "hard", especially when it is their responsibility. Proper...
  14. Mopar Hinge Gate Reinforcement max weight

    We have had 37" BFG KO2s on 17" Method 316 wheels on ours for about 14 months, with the prior 20 months being 35" KO2s on original 18inch Mopar wheels. We added the Teraflex HD adjustable carrier on there with the Mopar reinforcement when we got the 37s, just so we could set the height and depth...
  15. Jumperless Aux Battery Bypass

    Only valid way to see the battery condition would be when not being charged or drawn from... After driving a while and the battery has an opportunity to get fully charged (maybe for the first time in a long while if the aux was drawing off it all the time when it was bad) then you should see the...
  16. I find the lack of door options surprising.

    Yeah, he mentioned there are tube doors, but it seems pretty clear the point is that there is not much else... and there isn't. For instance, it is odd that Bestop still does not have their CORE doors for the JL still. Would not surprise me if Jeep isn't letting Bestop release other options...
  17. RockJock Tow Bar Mounting Kit for JL/JT - CONCERNS?

    We have had the Hard Rock 4x4 Patriot bumper with the tow bracket additions for 3 years, and it has worked great - no issues with any of the frame member or bumper components. We intentionally got our JLUR with the plastic bumpers, knowing we would immediately install the Patriot bumper to...
  18. 2019 JLUR 3.6 8speed, 4.88 gearing with 37/12.50/17 Getting 11.5 MPG

    From reading all of your responses, I would say you have something wrong with your Jeep. Drag in the drive train or braking systems, or serious engine efficiency issues. We have 37s and 4.88s with the 3.6, 2 inch lift, an offroad front bumper and fenders, and all of the other worst things for...
  19. Coverking Topliner

    No problems with ours so far. We did add additional adhesive at a couple of spots at install ourselves where we thought it was a it light, and it seems to have held up great. It all cleans up easily after hitting trails and getting dust and dirt all over, though we haven't managed to throw...
  20. Have you added up what you have spent on your JL

    I made that mistake a few months back, and we are up to about 17k including all costs for inside and out. And the only things we paid labor for was the Mopar lift kit (because we had it installed before we even picked up the Jeep) and the re-gear to 4.88s. It adds up so quick, and we have a...
