Question for you Matt since you have 2 sweet Jeeps, which one do you prefer if you could only have one?? Love that last pic too, that perspective really looks awesome!
People are saying Pats are cheap tires, well maybe they used to be (way back when I bought mine), but they're priced pretty close to much higher quality tires now. So when you say cheap tires, yeah, they're cheap regarding overall performance and quality, but not that cheap regarding price :(
Ted, you should have Jeep sign you up to do their next commercial, would sell a bunch more, and probably campers too!
And on the side of the Jeep, rather than "Trail Rated" a "Wibornz Rated" badge would seem pretty balla!
I bet you could come up w/ some creepy corn field trail in the heart of Nebraska that would at least be better than Schnebly Hill BoH trail, have some of these kids to spot you, might be epic!
lol Ted :)
Got our Pats before the peak of their hype, got them for $124 per tire, for that price they were ok, but the $250 (or more) they go for now, no way! Got 25k out of them and they still has about 5k of usable life left, but I would only recommend them for dry rocks w/ good grip, and...
Nice setup!
I went from smaller Pats to larger Mickey Thompson ATZs (295/70/17 to 315/70/17) and the ride and overall stability on and off road is far better w/ the Mickeys. The Pats were E rated and the MTs are D rated, so that may have something to do with it as well. Plus the Pats are...
Thanks for that!
And why in the hell did they design that exhaust equalizing loop (in the V6) so it drops lower than most anything else under the chassis, there's plenty of room to equalize at a higher plane. MORONS!
Those aluminum boxes can be hit or miss, ours was fine day to day, but on a long road trip in 100+ degree temps the play in the steering increased to the point where it was a concern. Having the cast iron box combined w/ the longer Mopar lift LCAs made high speed cruising a breeze w/ no wander...
Do a caster check, if you can get caster in the 6 degree range it will be much less prone to wander.
And a simple $100 fix may be all you need.
