  1. LoD Destroyer Sliders redesigned?

    I received a set of LoD Destroyers yesterday from Northridge4x4. I went to the LOD website to download the installation instructions and found... That I apparently have an old version, because the manual there now is dated April 2022 and the install is very different. The sliders have separate...
  2. Gas cap labeling

    The 392 requires premium gasoline. The gas cap looks like every other JL cap and makes no mention of octane. At least mine doesn't. I'm afraid if I let someone else drive it they'll refill it with regular to "do me a favor" since you can watch the gas gauge drop while you drive it. Are any...
  3. Washington Sold: Freedom panel storage bag, Free

    This is left-over from my now-totaled JLUR. The 392 I ordered has a sky one-touch top, so this bag isn't going to be useful anymore. Free for you, pickup in Snoqualmie WA, or South lake union in Seattle.
  4. Question about giant tires, changing flats, and not leaving a wheel in the woods

    I know that all I'm going to get is a sarcastic "lol, do u even lift, bro?", but this is a real question and concern I have. My old (RIP) rubicon with stock 33" tires was not the most pleasant thing to rotate tires on. I had a set of nokian winter tires that weighed noticeably more than the...
  5. My Rubicon was totaled by an uninsured/unlicensed driver. What to try next? (dashcam video included)

    Yesterday night while stopped at a red light on an exit ramp, someone hit me at about 50mph without even touching their brakes. They pushed me into two cars in front of me, and my jeep is almost certainly totaled. It turns out that the complete and utter waste of oxygen and protoplasm that hit...
  6. Washington SOLD: Black Premium JLU Soft Top, Seattle Area, $1000

    For sale is the premium OEM black soft top. I got both the hard top and soft top with my car, and it turns out that I prefer the hard top year round. It's in good condition, though it's been used. Stored in my basement, so it was only exposed to weather while it was installed. I live in West...
  7. Kenwood TM-D710GA ham radio install (lots of pics)

    I've managed to install a Kenwood TM-D710GA in my Jeep and figured pictures of the install might help others. My goals were: As little permanent modification as possible, ideally no drilling holes in places where if removed, it would still be visible Since I live in Seattle and it's crawling...
  8. Am I the only silly person running winter tires on a Rubicon?

    Why'd I do it? I wanted to try it. I bought an extra set of wheels and got 5 studless Nokian Hakkapeliitta LT2s in the stock 285/70R17 size. So far they're good - noticeably grippier than the KO2s on Seattle's wet 40 degree polished-to-a-shine-by-studs streets. I'm heading to Montana next week...
  9. Thought I had my first fluid leak!

    I swapped out my wheels yesterday, and afterwards I found some blue grease right by one of the axles: For a moment I thought this might be my first experience with this particular "it's a Jeep thing", but I couldn't figure out what seal was near the drip. A minute later I realized what had...
  10. Wheeling near Seattle this weekend?

    I finally got my Jeep last week, and this weekend I'm finally free to spend a day playing with it. Anyone in the Seattle area want to find some dirt? I don't really know what I'm doing, but I have a jeep and a desire to learn (and a recovery kit, no winch yet!)
  11. Wonderful downhill shifting behavior with 8 speed auto

    I finally got my Jeep today! I have a steep paved driveway and have to traverse some pretty steep hills to get around my neighborhood. I've read a lot of threads here but none have mentioned how the transmission seems to be programmed to behave on downhill stretches with your foot off the gas...
  12. "Informal Hold - Quality Audit Hold" *after* shipping?

    So my Jeep has been nearby for a couple weeks. I heard that it had made it to a rail yard in Washington, and so I was waiting for it to get trucked to a dealer. My ETAs have been pushed back from 4/18 all the way until now. Yesterday I found out that it's in "Informal Hold - Quality Audit Hold"...
  13. How many of us are moving from a Miata to a JL?

    Yesterday I placed an order for my first ever Jeep, a loaded JLUR. About 6 months ago I got the bug, and I couldn't help myself once I saw how awesome the JL is. I've been poring over this forum for the last week or so. I don't remember what thread it was, but I saw at least 3 other people...
