Update.
So I read through some threads about other people with broken bolts and ran across one message where the person had the nut broken inside the frame but the bolt was fine. Pretty much same thing as me.
That person was able to use a dental pick to align the loose nut inside the frame and...
New issue. I tried using CalJLMetalead’s method but the bolt just came out completely. The bolt is still intact though.
I tried just putting the bolt back in but it doesn’t seem there’s anything for the bolt to screw into. What can I do now? Am I SOL now?
Seemed to just be free-spinning when I tried to thread it back into place and if I leave it then it just hangs. Doesn't come off or anything. Not sure what's holding it in place. It seems like there's a lot of play in there too when I push the bolt up.
I've posted a short clip.
I searched this forum and didn't find an answer.
I have a 2018 Wrangler JLU Rubicon. Was replacing my stock rock sliders with Rugged Ridge Spartan Nerf steps and noticed the rear most body mount bolt on driver's side was just loose and hanging a few inches lower (see pic).
I've never touched...

I’d like to add to this thread as another one that was using the two-piece Tazer JL (11.0.6) with depleted batteries.
Had not driven my Rubicon (3.6l, auto) for a little under 3 weeks and found that remote start didn’t work and battery was too weak to start the engine. After jumpstarting the...
ParthianShot, thanks for your pics!
I think you had said you were using a hardtop before this? If so, did you happen to notice the height difference with the Trektop and your hardtop?
Also, I’m assuming you got the twill version of the Trektop, right?
Thanks again for your help. Much appreciated.
Ditto on TTEChris' question.
I have height concerns as well and would be interested to know how much lower the height drops for the Trektop (both twill and non-twill versions) when compared with the factory premium soft top. Please also let us know if there is a difference in height between...
Maybe the people not getting daily reports should check if the TravelLink option in the Tazer JL menu is turned on. Not sure if that matters, but worth a shot.
I know, for me, I didn’t see the TravelLink app (or get traffic info on the nav) on my UConnect when that was turned off in Tazer JL.
