  1. Winch decision …

    Once you make the decision which one to get, another important factor that keeps your winch to work when you need it is maintenance. Cover it when its not in use. Dry run it every once a while (especially before you go offroad). Make sure all electrical connections are good. Keep the synthetic...
  2. What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

    The dent isn't big enough to affect the piston inside. And I agree, I will wait until I finish my trip. What town/city are you in? I live in Elkhart, IN which is right by the boarder.
  3. What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

    Rotated the tires and an once over everything before windrocks this coming weekend. Noticed a dent on my steering stabilizer. I don't even know how it happened it is already tucked up out of the way. Who wants to giveaway their OE stabilizer that is in good condition? lol
  4. Overall build quality seem lacking

    Its funny to watch Honda officials talk about their new Prologue EV. They are so careful when asked about the quality. If you didnt know, its a product of Honda/Chevy co-development project. Its Honda on the outside but Chevy on the inside. They were like... yeah we (Honda) know what we do on...
  5. Overall build quality seem lacking

    I remember that takata airbag recall.
  6. Overall build quality seem lacking

    When I want to drill a hole, I use my drill gun. When I want to remove lug nuts, I use my impact gun. Different tools for different tasks. It has nothing to do with being fun or boring. If anything, my daily is more comfortable going thru potholes and quieter on the highway. Statistically, more...
  7. Overall build quality seem lacking

    When it comes to built quality and reliability, the bar seems to be so low among Jeep owners... I guess I have been lucky to only have had a bad heated steering wheel, which was covered by the bumper to bumper warranty. Other than a few recalls, no real reliability issue at 73K miles so far...
  8. Diff covers and Diff Skids?

    I would say no. You dont need new covers or skids for you intended purpose. The stock cover getting peeled off is a non-issue on newer Jeeps. But if you want to spend money on the Jeep and feel good (which we all do), they provide many benefits and very little drawbacks, which many already...
  9. U Joints for front Rubicon D44 / M210

    https://spicerparts.com/parts/driveshaft/automotive-performance/spicer-performance-u-joints-for-jeep-wrangler-jl https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DP6146U/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_image_o06_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I cant confirm it would fit or not. I got one before one trip just in case but never...
  10. Spacer lift vs springs, more flex/droop?

    well, I would say it depends on how much bumpstop you use. If you add 2" spring spacer and also 2" bumpstop extension, the coil is compressed the same amount at full bump as if its completely stock. And in your case... You are over thinking.
  11. Spacer lift vs springs, more flex/droop?

    I would replace the shocks first and see how you like it.. if you don't, you can always upgrade to teraflex springs later. To give you a rough idea... Here are some pics comparing stock springs and Mopar lift springs (most 2.5 to 3.5 lift springs are slightly longer than Mopar lift springs in...
  12. Spacer lift vs springs, more flex/droop?

    I had that set up.. you will be fine. The stock coil plus spacer is long enough for those shocks at full droop.
  13. Will adding a lift invalidate factory warranty?

    It really depends on the dealership and situation. If I run a Jeep dealership, you bring in a Jeep with a 3.5" lift and want to warranty the front drive shaft due to a torn rzeppa joint boot, I would probably argue the lift and longer suspension travel directly cause the issue. That put me in a...

  15. Mopar lift kit with Fox shocks on sale for $1068.86

    I remember back in 2019 when I pieced together my own "lift kit" using the part numbers. I only spent $200 for 4 springs, rear anti swaybar end links, and rear bump stop extensions. The springs that come in the Mopar lift are actually pretty good. I have been rocking them for over 4 years with...

  18. Mechanic's comprehensive tech review of Jeep Wrangler 4XE

    35,000 miles of problem free... I guess the reliability bar for Jeep is really that low, huh.
  19. Build Up vs. Swap Out - Rubicon Axles

    One thing hasn't been mentioned.. When you compare costs.. they might seem close, which making building up factory axles less cost effective. However, instead of putting 5 digit investment all at once, you can slowly upgrade the components on the factory D44s as you go. Sure, it would never...
