Was driving in the rain, yesterday, and several times my dash lit up with ABS, Parking brake, and Traction Control idiot lights (maybe more - the lights came on with a ding sound and then immediately disappear).
Each time I was in 3rd gear going just under 30MPH.
When it happens I feel the...
My trusted mechanic retired this month. His shop installed my ACT clutch almost 2 years ago, and now I'm seeking a new shop with experience dealing with the JL's very unfriendly manual transmission. Specifically, a shop that actually knows how to bleed these things and how to align the slave...
2018 2DR Rubicon with stock tires and no lift.
I put a 2x4 on the highest point of my soft top and measure 6' 1"
So I should have 3" to spare, but that is not much.
Anyone have experience with these garages?
Edit: you all convinced me there’s too big a pucker factor. Going to take the Yukon...
Weird one. Came as an email this morning, but says only 46 affected vehicles. Not sure how that’s possible.

Transmission on our 2016 Yukon XL failed at 108,000 miles. OEM replacement installed by my trusted mechanic for $5,500. Two weeks later it started leaking. These are sealed units, so my mechanic has no idea what failed. GMC took two days before even granting him permission to drop it to inspect...
Ugh. I’ve been purposefully not doing the 19a clutch recall because I have an ACT aftermarket clutch and don’t want the crappy new software. Now I have to skip this new recall, too, because law says they have to perform all open recalls. Oh, well...
Lost a wheel cap on my 2018 2dr Rubicon. I ordered and received 1LB77LSTAC, but it's shiny black and not matte black like the others.
Anyone have the right part number?

I really like the hammock suggested there, but I measured and it seems like it’d be too big.
Anyone using something similar in their two door...
For a couple of years, now, I intermittently (and rarely) get a “check axle locker system” idiot light. It displays, chimes and then immediately disappears.
For some time I thought it fixed itself because I went many months without a recurrence.
Recently, I think I’ve noticed a correlation...
On the way to the vet our dog pooped in the back of my two door. The back seat was folded forward and we couldn’t see what was going on (and were on the highway). The smell was not really strong and I assumed he stepped on the bagged “sample” that we had back there with him.
Well, the first...
Original two piece Tazer with OBDII extension included. This served me well for 5 years and works perfectly. The SGW bypass alone is useful for using BlueTooth scanners like the MX+ for JScan.
The grey tape on the bypass is foam to ensure no vibrations/rattles. I just zip tied it to the frame...
Well, this makes me nervous.
I recently had an ACT clutch installed, and it’s been great. That said, my clutch pedal started making a click noise at the very start of travel, but only after I’ve been driving around for a long while (like after thirty minutes of around town with lots of...
Just started this morning. I’ve logged about 1,000 miles on my new ACT clutch and it’s been phenomenal. I don’t think this has anything to do with the new clutch.
It’s absurdly humid, today, and I wonder if that is a factor.
Anyway, push clutch to floor and when it reaches the end of its...
Hi, @JAY. I notice that when I launch the app it gets stuck loading.
My workaround is to start swiping up from the bottom as if I’m going to kill it, but I don’t actually kill it. When I do that the app flashes white really fast like a camera flash and then loads.

UPDATE (4/14): FCA added a repair description
Repair Description
FCA US will conduct a voluntary safety recall on all affected vehicles to replace the clutch assembly and update software to provide escalating visual and audible warnings to the operator, ultimately resulting in the potential...
My 2018 2dr Rubi is about to flip 51,000 miles. No lift or any suspension mods. Tires are original. Never experienced this in 5 years, but twice tonight…
Traveling about 60-65mph and hit a very small bump and everything started shaking. I let go of the throttle and it smoothed out after about...
Over the past few months the “service axle locker” idiot light has been coming on when I am at crawling speed. For example, if I stop at a stop sign and then start creeping out. I think it may also coincide with turning the wheel right, but it’s happened when just stopping at a red light.
When...
I've decided to buy a Big Tex 30ES 5x10: https://www.bigtextrailers.com/30es-economy-single-axle-utility-trailer
I'm planning to pick it up with the Jeep on Saturday. It's 723lbs when empty, which is well below the 2,000lb tow rating for the 2dr.
Any concerns or tips? The dealer is 90 miles...
