Well, we set it centered at the #2 ride height, and it stays centered there at all times when using that setting, which is 90% of the time. At the lower position it moves a few degrees, barely perceptible when driving, and at higher settings it is off in the other direction by a few degrees. Not...

No, it does not. It does ride pretty great, but it still feels like a Jeep with a 3.5ish inch short arm lift and normal shocks on it. At the lower position 1 ride height, it has a firmer steering but slightly softer ride to it, which makes sense as the air springs have less pressure in them. I...

Yep, Smittybilt 12k on mine has been fine with multiple uses over the last 3.5 years. The bumper is pretty solid, and they provide steel plates to link the winch plate holes to make is stronger. My jeep is seldom rolling at over about 5200 lbs, but I cannot imagine the extra 1200 lbs would make...

I would at least get a trail cover from Smittybilt, Bestop, or even the Mopar one. Worth $100 - $200 for something that you can put on pretty quick and is fitted for the vehicle and keep most of the water out even in a serious storm. We have the Smittybilt that was just over $100 bucks and it...

Adjustable bump stops for the rubbing, and I ran all sorts of everything at Moab with Mopar lift and both 35s and 37s, so you will be fine. I would do the bump stops to keep the tires as clear as possible from hitting things when flexing out.

Yep, and they were nice enough to tell me I could wait on my warranty claim for the ore hit, and get it replaced later if more damage occurred. Offered to give me a substantial discount on a replacement later as well, if I didnt want to get it replaced under warranty before the 2 year mark...

My AccuAir JL kit arrived today, and that is a lot of stuff. Will not be able to get to the install for a few weeks here, but I am trying to figure out where all I can start working on it to get some steps done before getting into the actual suspension parts that will need to be all done at...

Our first windshield made it just over a year, and we replaced it due to crack spreading across from a tiny chip. We installed the Jeep Hyperformance Tough windshield. Been 2.5 years with that now even though we had a near baseball sized chunk of ore from a rock hauler truck hit is and leave a...

Same here - aluminum Patriot full-width and synthetic rope winch setup. 3.5 years and that bumper lower skid section has taken a beating with no issues at all. Probably would go with the mid-width now if I did it over, but the full one has not gotten in the way of anything we have done so far.

There really is not much they are going to align on a Wrangler, as the only adjustable component on stock components is toe. Toe would evenly apply to both wheels, as it is a single adjustment for the entire tie rod, so that doesn't really contribute to pulling to one side on its own. The...

Our 2020 was towed 30,000 miles behind our RV and driven another 40,000 miles over a few years as our only means of transportation, while also being used on some of the most challenging trails in several locations around the country (see profile pic). We have had issues, but it never left us...

They take various times to be sent. I think they do large batch production and then wait until they run out of enough of them to order replacements. We have then take anywhere from 2 weeks to a few months in the past, and it just took a full year to get ours from our Hidden Falls run in Texas...

All the talk about 8th gear on this is a bit silly really - the main point for me was that accelerating from a stop was noticeably sad with 37s on the 4.10s - regardless of engine the gearing was just not appropriate at that ratio, and with the 3.6 is even more apparent. 4.88s are plenty for 37s...

Very true - you point out something people might often ignore in these questions, which is that it is easy to incorrectly assume with lift height we would use an appropriately matched shock length for that lift, which would net just about the same max extension length overall - but you could...

I haven't needed a drive shaft change to have my 3ish inches of lift from the Mopar lift kit, and I have wheeled mine pretty hard for 3 years now. I think 3.5 - 4 inches is where it is a necessity, though I am sure the extra angle even with smaller lifts does add stress over time. You will need...

Ummmm - "Disregarding the obvious off-road performance advantages (better breakover angle, increased water fording capability, and better approach/departure angles)" Well ok then.

Umm, well, the real inflation rate seems to be higher than the Jeep price increases, so not really a surprise. Luxury goods are the things that will increase most readily to match inflationary pressures on their costs to manufacture, and Jeeps are really not necessity items to just about anyone...

I agree that it makes sense it was a mistake, and always be nice to folks when you can, but nothing is worse than immediately jumping to the "it will be hard to fix" crap. Cannot stand dealing with people that do not want to do anything "hard", especially when it is their responsibility. Proper...

We have had 37" BFG KO2s on 17" Method 316 wheels on ours for about 14 months, with the prior 20 months being 35" KO2s on original 18inch Mopar wheels. We added the Teraflex HD adjustable carrier on there with the Mopar reinforcement when we got the 37s, just so we could set the height and depth...

Only valid way to see the battery condition would be when not being charged or drawn from... After driving a while and the battery has an opportunity to get fully charged (maybe for the first time in a long while if the aux was drawing off it all the time when it was bad) then you should see the...
