  1. What did you do WITH your Jeep today.

    Hit some trails in Red Rock Canyon S.P. on my way home from skiing in Mammoth.
  2. DRL in fenders stopped working

    Are you in park? I don’t believe they come on if the transmission is in park.
  3. SOLVED: Pre-Death Wobble

    Both shops I brought it to said ball joints didn’t look bad. I wanted to upgrade anyway and had them replaced. Glad I did and it solved the issue.
  4. SOLVED: Pre-Death Wobble

    Same thing happened to me after I rotated the tires but it was full on death wobble. 2019 JLUR 2.5” lift and 35” KO2’s w/45K miles. Had the tires balanced, front end alignment, replaced drag link bushing, adjusted caster, and torqued everything. Still had death wobble on certain bumps. Finally...
  5. Finally got death wobble…

    The ball joints were about $600 and close to another $600 to install. I wasn’t confident doing it myself. I was looking to upgrade to the Dynatrac anyway. Since they’re rebuildable I’ll probably do that myself when the time comes.
  6. Finally got death wobble…

    I recently experienced death wobble at about 42K miles, 35” KO2’s, 2.5” Icon lift (30k miles on the lift and tires). I had an alignment, tires balanced, caster adjusted and replaced the drag link bushing. Still got DW. Both shops I took it to said ball joints looked ok. I decided to have them...
  7. Icon 2.5 in Lift

    This lift performs very well at high speeds and I hit 60+ in sand washes without bottoming out in bumps. Not Baja speeds but fast enough for me.
  8. Icon 2.5 in Lift

    The problem with this comparison is he compared the Stage 1 lift to much higher end lifts. Stage 1 is an entry level lift at a relatively low cost. The performance of these lifts increase substantially with the higher stages and I think this would have been reflected in a more accurate comparison.
  9. 2019 JLUR Icon Build

    I don’t think it will make much of a difference but there is a lot of discussion regarding this issue on the forum. I had the aluminum steering box replaced with the steel one and that helped more. Not sure if that’s the case with your recon.
  10. Beware the frozen key fob!

    Same thing happened to me after a cold day of skiing with the fob in an outer pocket. I used the fob to push the start button and turn the alarm off before starting. The fob worked fine for a couple more months in warm temperature before I finally replaced the battery. I now keep it in an inner...
  11. Super disappointed in tires

    I’ve been on KO2’s for years on both my Jeep and Tacoma with no issues in snow. Never used a dedicated snow tire so maybe I just don’t know any better but they seem to work for me.
  12. Icon 2.5 in Lift

    I have the Icon 2.5 Stage 5 lift with rebound wheels and 35’s. Very happy with it. Handles great both on and off road. I also like how well it performs going fast through the desert and sand washes.
  13. Jeeps parking next to Jeeps... post yours!

    When I parked I was the only Jeep there. It put a smile on my face when I returned and saw two others. I’m the one on the right.
  14. JLU Rubicon MPG comparison across engines (2.0T, 3.6, 392, 4XE, 3.0D)

    Anytime I see a post regarding mileage I wonder which way the wind is blowing. 2019 JLUR 3.6, 2.5” lift, 35” tires, steel bumpers, winch, etc., average about 18 mpg overall (highway/city mix). Better on the highway. Throw in a strong headwind and forget it.
  15. How do you cook out of your JL?

    Coleman 2 burner gas stove for me.
  16. Who are some Jeep content creators I should watch?

    Ronny Dahl 4 wheeling Australia. He’s not Jeep focused but is very informative for general four wheeling and over landing.
  17. fell into air vent

    It’s like a black hole. Not even light can escape.
  18. Tire Pressure: Who's Right?

    Well I’m glad I’m not alone on this. I use an ARB quick deflate to air down. Usually go to 13-15 psi. After some driving the TPMS usually reads 16-18 psi. Then I think damn, I should have deflated more. I know some of this is due heat generated while driving. I use an ARB digital gauge to air...
  19. Tire pressure for super rocky terrain

    Late response to this but I was in Death Valley in February and put a stick through the sidewall of the KO2. Was able to put a plug in so didn’t have to use the spare. If you don’t already have a plug kit then I highly recommend one. Much easier then changing a 35” tire.
