  1. Rhino Pioneer Rack - Side Rails or Not?

    I will be moving forward and getting a Rhino Pioneer system rack for my JLUR to carry gear (not RTT). For those that do the same do you find value in the optional side rails or do you largely get by with just ratcheting down your gear without the rails?
  2. Wagoneer coming?

    Body on frame? If that the case they would probably use what is already in place for the Wrangler/Gladiator. Could this essentially be a Gladiator with an enclosed cabin in favor of the bed and 3rd row seating?
  3. JL Boot Boxes

    I am going through a similar thought exercise on how I can maximize the storage capabilities of my JL. One thing you may want to consider is identifying all the items you are carrying and then design your storage solution around that instead of starting with a storage solution and then seeing...
  4. Looking for a way to carry a couple gas cans on stock Rubicon

    Trailrax also provides a pricey but cool option for side mounting rotopax containers to the hardtop. https://www.trailrax.com/products/pak-rax-jl-2018-current
  5. Will we ever see factory half doors?

    Liability concerns would be one major reason why not but on the other hand they do sell Mopar tube doors so perhaps half doors could be a future performance parts option.
  6. is yellow harder to sell?

    If you do sell your Jeep in the future do you want to have your Grey Jeep listed alongside 50+ other Grey Jeeps many with sellers that might be listing their comparable vehicle for a price lower than you would like or would you like to have your Yellow Jeep one of the few or the only listing in...
  7. Thoughts on Buying a Used JLU??

    There are major differences in the Rubicon suspension, etc. vs. the Sahara and that's where a lot of the $12K cost difference is. There are a number of dealers that will sell you a factory built to order for 5% or so below invoice. You may want to configure the same new Jeep using that tool on...
  8. What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

    Finally got my plates and the went about cutting the hook off my Smittybilt winch line so I could mount a Factor 55 Flatlink in its place. Unfortunately my Tuffy flip-up license plate mount would not accommodate the additional thickness of the Flatlink resulting in my plate resting face-up at a...
  9. Broken Body Mount Bolt JL

    The body bolt snapping was probably due to the red Loctite that was applied to the bolt per factory specs and removal was attempted without heating up the bolts to loosen the Loctite. There have been other threads that have mentioned that bolt recoveries in these situations were successful by...
  10. What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

    Installed ACE rock sliders without breaking a frame bolt but learned you can set rubber bushings on fire if you heat them up too much when loosening up the factory applied Loctite.
  11. What did you do WITH your Jeep today.

    A good day getting out of the house and to the local mountains with family. Was supposed to be fairly easy dirt roads but one was quite rutted and rocky in several spots and had to use the lockers and sway release in actual need for the first time and got through no problem.
  12. Any engine with ESS

    I have no trouble with the concept of ESS and I even think when done right is beneficial. Unfortunately I find the ESS on my JLUR to be quite temperamental. I will be stopped at a light and ESS will properly shut down the engine but a few moments later the engine will start up again...
  13. What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

    Installed a X20 winch with the Maximus-3 plate and hoop along with the Tuffy license plate mount. Waiting for the Factor 55 Flatlink and an actual license plate.
  14. Post your 2020 JL build status

    Just received my Rubicon that was ordered on 2/4 and built on 3/4. Rail transport took almost a month including sitting in various rail yards but well worth the wait. Ordered through Rob Trachtman at Coastline Jeep in San Juan Capistrano at 5% below invoice with great service and no hassles.
  15. HELLA YELLA Wrangler JL Club

    Just got my Hella Yella Rubicon built right before the plant closures WITH red dash!
