I thought this was a good advertisement for flush mount taillights. These are the flush mount Oracle taillights for a JT, but pretty much the same as a JL. My wife and I have them on both of our Jeeps, and really like them. I told my wife she can thank me when we do rock crawling like this...
I thought it would be interesting to start a thread where people post a picture of where they were at with their Jeep recently. Include a picture from the Jeep, or of the Jeep. But also include a picture of either your GPS screen or a point on a map so the rest of us can see where you are at...
I bought new wheels last September after the Rubicon Trail, and I told the tire dealer to leave the TPMS sensors out. I have been running just plain old valve stems with no sensors and no TPMS readings for the last 5 months. Then today I suddenly get tire pressure readings out of the blue...
My 392 and my wife's Mojave are both Sting Gray colored. But just yesterday I noticed they are not the same color. Different shades of gray, so to speak. Does anyone know if they changed the shade of gray for Sting Gray between 2022 and 2023?
I searched a year back and didn't see this directly answered.
I'm buying new wheels. I currently only have 2 of 5 TPMS sensors working, and personally I think they are more of a nuisance than a benefit. I typically air down and air up my tires as much as once a week for 4-wheeling, so I...
Late this summer I took my 392 XR on a trip from UT to the Rubicon Trail and home again. The trip was mostly on 65 mph two lane black top and included two days in low range on the Rubicon Trail. Average fuel economy for the whole trip according to the dash computer was 14.6 mpg.
Last week I...
In 1973, when I was 13 years old, my dad bought a 1973 CJ5 with the 304 V8 in it. As a young man of 13 years of age it was an impressionable time for me, and I loved that Jeep. When we took the Jeep on dirt roads my father would let me drive, and I learned to drive with that Jeep. You might...
I just traded in my 2019 Ram 3500 crew cab short bed 4x4 on a 2023 Ram 3500 crew cab long bed 4x4. The new one has the HO engine, so makes 200 ft lbs more torque, and a few other functional options like a spray in bed liner and the fifth wheel and gooseneck trail tow prep package that I did not...
After changing to 37" tires my 392 XR has picked up a tailgate rattle. If I watch in the rear-view mirror, I can see when I hit bumps that the spare tire bounces at the same frequency as the rattle. If I remove the spare tire the rattle goes away. I have tried several times to adjust the gate...
Does anyone know if these Daystar extended tailgate spare tire bumpstops (for a JK) will fit a JL? The bumpstops for an XR model JL are different than the bumpstops for a non-XR JL. And I need bumpstops that are 3/4" longer than the stock bumpstops on my XR. These can be trimmed to the length...
We all know that JL's tend to lean to the right with aftermarket suspensions. What have you done about it? My last JLUR had Eibach springs and King shocks, and after installing MetalCloak skids it leaned to the right badly enough that the right side fenders were 1 1/8" lower than the left side...
I've been looking for a set of 17x10 or 17x9.5 wheels for my 392 XR, but haven't been able to find exactly what I want. Any chance you can post a list of wheels that are available in this size? I think I am only looking at hal what is available.
Thanks.
I have a 1" lift and 37s on my 392 XR, and still scrub the belly occaisionally. I have a MetalCloak Gamechanger 2 1/2" lift on order, and will swap out the suspension when it gets here, but that will only give me anonther 1/2" of clearance. So I want to protect the low hanging fruit under my...
I want to change to 37x12.50R-17 tires on my 392 XR. Which of these tires is going to work better in the southern Rocky Mountains? Let me preface this with the fact that I own a few UTVs that tend to get used in good weather, so if I am using my Jeep there is a good chance it is either going...
I would like to see how a Dirty Life DT1 in the satin gold color looks on a 392 with the gold hood lettering and tow hooks. How good is the color match, and how well does the satin gold look on a Sting Grey Jeep?
Thanks.
The first two are pretty much given. 1. Power 2. Sound
So what is your third favorite thing about your 392?
I'm thinking that not having that annoying auto stop/start feature has got to be right up there.
Or maybe the fact that it is a Rubicon, but doesn't have the hideous red dash.
What...
