Make sure to take adequate water, food, good recovery kit, first aid kit, and most importantly a properly tuned CB. Last time my wife and I went we wound up helping with a search and rescue for an older gentleman who "wandered" off and had been lost for several hours. His wife was pretty...
Love my soft top! I wound up getting the premium and so far is living up to being the best designed st to date especially when you compare it to the TJ and JK soft tops. I can take it down and put it put it up in just a few minutes without screaming at it or lubing it up every time I use it...
9,500 miles so far and the only visit I've made to the dealership is for my oil change. I've been clear for all the recalls so far and I tend to check every couple of weeks to make sure too. My biggest complaint is that I haven't taken it off road enough...
Y'all do realize BleepinJeep has been around for like 8 years or so now? They tend to focus on older Jeep's (with a lighthearted jest) but as new Jeep's roll out they create content for those Jeep's. I've used quite a few of their video's in the past with issues I've had with previous Jeep's and...
I guess it's all a matter of perspective when it comes to the hard top, I had one on my '12 and it wasn't bad, but like I said it's a matter of perspective. A buddy in high school owned a K5 Blazer with removable hardtop, that thing weighed close to 200lbs and he was rocking a 4in lift. It took...
Love the build so far, but to address your question about comms I would highly highly suggest getting something whether it's a ham radio, cb, or a race radio anything will be better than nothing.
To give you an idea of how important it is, my wife and I went down to Big Bend one Spring Break to...
Hey can you take a picture of the rear window spreader bar in place with the gate brackets and how it's fitted into the rear window seal? On the JK's you could flip the spreader bar over and if so would cause the same issue as what you're pictures show.
This has become two different topics it would seem, the first being the LSD as an option, which like everyone else has alluded to it's a money issue. Overall, having LSD is a nice feature that can contribute to a slightly higher resale value when you do sell it, but it's not necessary if that's...
IF you're military, former military, or your mother or father is (and already has USAA) I strongly suggest USAA. I've had them for years and they have been absolutely the best company and have taken care of every issue I've had with various Jeeps including picking up a $2500 tow tab to get me...
As far as side windows popping off, this is definitely not limited to the JL's, even on TJ's and JK's I've owned I had this issue. I have to travel through a mountain pass to go to work each day and it's the equivalent to the Palm Springs area in California and whenever I ran without doors or...
So, I'm at almost 5000 miles on mine with only the premium soft top and I have yet to see any of these issues arise. So far from all the Jeep's I've owned in the past, this is by far the best soft top I've had. It seems that many of the issues that are popping up are user related, i.e. making...
So as far as places to go, the big one is www.chilechallenge.org which is coming up in October 9-14, it’s got trails rated easy to buggy only and is an extremely well run event in the Caballo Lake area south of TorC. There is also the old chile challenge area just west of Las Cruces, I’ve got...
Hey! When your lift gets here just put a shout out on the El Paso Jeepers FB page and there’s quite a few guys who’ll be down to help. For trails check out the NM Chile challenge which happens in October, they’ve got a FB page with details.
