Hi,
A buddy of mine has a 392-equipped Wrangler JK. He's an older fellow living a few doors down. We help each other on maintenance days.
His primary Jeep is a TJ that he loves. He also has an old CJ-8 Scrambler and a rock crawler CJ.
Still, he has this JK sitting in the carport with a...
Hi,
A few weeks ago a friend asked me how Trailer Weight Distribution Hitches work. I realized that I could explain the benefits, but I could not, in good conscience, explain how they actually work because the only explanations I have ever seen of how they work do not explain how they actually...
The forum has a great collection of wiring diagrams for the Wrangler JL:
https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/jeep-jl-wrangler-wiring-diagrams.19185/
However, the diagrams list the wire gauges using standards I am not familiar with.
For example;
The primary battery uses a wire...
Hi,
I have been studying up in anticipation of installing a MOPAR Trailer Wiring Harness and a Trailer Controller on my 2020 JLUR. The Jeep did not come equipped with a factory tow package.
This morning I removed some of the interior plastic trim in the front passenger foot well, and expected...
Hi,
Does anyone make a generic flat plate that fits where the aux switches or the aux switch cubby hole goes?
I don't have the aux switch option and would like to use that area of the dash to mount a trailer brake controller knob.
I hope to find something that will replace the Mopar 6FN18TX7AA...
Hi,
I own a 2020 Rubicon that did not come with the tow package.
I have a MOPAR 82216359AA hitch wiring harness on order, which should arrive soon.
I am having trouble locating an in-stock MOPAR 82215652AD trailer brake controller, so I anticipate some delay in receiving an example...
Hi,
I was installing an ARB Twin Compressor a few days ago and wondered why the switch loom connector has a 3-pin connector with two wires on one side and three on the other.
The wiring layout does not show the wires between the loom connectors and the Compressor, so I mocked up an...
Hi,
I have a small Backroads camp trailer on order. When fully loaded, I anticipate it weighing about 2500 lbs, with much of the weight attributed to the reinforced frame, extra-duty axle, and oversized tires.
I am considering the Lock and Roll hitch system for all-around use, which would be...
Is the ADH code really necessary to use an electric brake controller?
I have a 2020 JLU Rubicon that did not come with the tow package.
I live two hours from the nearest Jeep dealer and five hours from a Jeep dealer with an experienced service department, so I would like to DIY everything I...
Hi,
I recall having seen some fixes for windshield visors that were based upon aftermarket new-and-improved bracket parts.
At the time, my visors were fine, so I did not pay close attention, but I finally heard a snap on the driver-side visor, and now it hangs loosely when I rotate it...
Hi,
It had not occurred to me that the form-fitting heat shields supplied with the Group 48 / H6 batteries would not be a good fit for the longer Group 94 / H7 batteries.
Has anyone found out the part number for the heat shields that MOPAR uses on any of their vehicles ( perhaps some RAM...
Hi,
Batteries sized as Group 48 / H6 or Group 94 / H7 will both fit in the Wrangler battery bucket, but many parts vendor websites post a note that the Group 48 / H6 are for 2018+ Wranglers with Start/Stop while the Group 94 / H7 batteries are for 2018+ Wranglers without Start/Stop.
I...
Hi,
The DIY tutorial videos make it look easy to disconnect the wiring for the lights in the front fenders. You just pull the red tab back and slide the connector out.
Well, I pulled the red tab back, and the connector was still stuck firmly in place, so I pulled the red tab again, and the...
Hi,
Next week, I am going to pull a fender on my 2020 JLUR, and I am wondering what the worst-case, break-em-all fender clip count might be so I can prepare accordingly.
I searched and found a few threads with the same question that linked to a few 20-page TLDR threads that did not answer the...
Hi,
I am wondering why some manufacturers of skid plates suggest that there is a significant difference between the original M210 Rubicon axle with the differential fluid drain plug, and the newer M210 Rubicon axle without the differential fluid drain plug.
Is the shape of the differential...
Hi,
There are several brackets made to raise the axle mount of the rear track bar.
Are there any brackets made to lower the mount on the frame?
I have been looking at the clearance under the rear passenger quadrant and it seems like the nearest conflict might be the rear sway bar. I am...
Has anyone seen any real life reviews of Snatch Blocks?
Almost everything I have found is an affiliate link copy-paste of whatever the manufacturers' catalog did or did not describe.
