Summer blend fuel, on three JL's, i got or now get 18.2-19.2 mpg on a round trip up and down 7% grades over hundreds of miles.
Current jeep gets the 18.2 summer blend, now two months into winter blend, I am getting 16.2mpg, tested over 400 miles. Using regular fuel.
That is an 11% drop in...
I was asked to pull around corner and wait for my BK order. With my Engine off, another old lady in a car comes around corner to park behind me, except she gets distracted by her POS labrasomemix, and hits me. I'm nice, get out ask if she is OK, I saw my tire bend in then out, terraflex tire...
Hi, since new, I have had what appears to be a fine misting on the outside surface of gorilla glass. It is really only visible with low sun angles and the photo is crappy, but if you ignore bug splatts you can see tiny circles, those circles are really tiny specs of something.
This jeep sat on...

So finishing paint on Cavfab bumpers, had to order rear bumper sensor housing from terraflex, hope they use same hole size as cavfab as theirs come with no mounting devices.
My question is, is there an orientation to the sensors other than stick each one in from position it came, up down makes...
So, with about 2,000 miles on a 2024 noted above, I have noticeable vibration in gas pedal, foot on floor and hand on steering wheel around 3,000 rpm accelerating. Does not vibrate in neutral. Is not the 35 wheels, no vibs with those up to 80mph. Never knew this but I cant spin motor above...
So I want to thank the folks that tried valiantly to get me into a 392, but it just wasn't going to work with my driving style.
So, I ended up trading in a 23 rubi 2dr, which is in my opinion a lemon, and I'm being paid to go away. It's gone.
I now have a 24 Rubi 4dr, and some thoughts.
23...
Poison spyder is MIA, broken up still retooling I guess after 3 years....
Who makes the closest to the poison spyder front bumper brawler mid?
Looking for plate welded not a smooth contour which looks to be a new thing?
Last in my life jeep decision, current 23JLR 3.6 is going to be traded, sold, bought back by jeep, TBD. Really wanted the JLUD, but, those days are numbered. Glad it works for those who have it.
That leaves the 392, my last jeep. I'm a big iron, v8 raised old guy. Would rather not drop a...
Went to a Beautiful lake 11,000 feet up in the Colorado Rockies to fish, did fish. Got back in to drive home, started jeep and selected offroad page to see what GPS said about altitude. It just gave the spinning wheel. It stayed that way for 30 minutes driving down the mountain until my phone...
Yes, sigh, just noticed at 900 miles on the Hulk, like fire (it's green) 2013 JLR, I find both doors (2dr) inner rear factory body seam sealer, putting a serious rub on the door frame paint.
Anyone else? My 4th Rubicon, never seen anything like this, but it does go with the noticeable sagging...
OK, I just added the mopar 2 inch lift LCAs and achieved dramatically better steering results.
I am thinking longer term, besides the crazy expensive ball joints from Dynatrac I want, what other best in class long term solid front end components do you use? Thinking long term.
I have used...
While JLUR was in for steering issues, I complained about a notchy feeling throttle at parking lot speeds, or hard down shifts on slowing in traffic. Seems there is a tranny reflash that fixes this, they did, and it now seems to shift buttery smooth, and throttle does not in one driving test...
Bought a low miles 2018 JLUR last year. Totally stock. I have had two other JK's, not new to the way solid axles run particularly since I have four decades of owning a 73 Bronco. I never heard of the steering issues on JL until, walla, I have them shortly after purchase. I am an expert on...
