  1. How Many Miles on Your Manual Transmission/Clutch?

    I'm at about 34,000 on my 2018 JLU Sport S. My Jeep is pretty much stock except for some wheels and 255/75 BFG AT tires. My clutch seems fine but I am still a little nervous do to the horror stories I've read on several forums. Mine works pretty smoothly other than some strange...
  2. Does anyone have a Yakima HangOver Vertical Hanging Mountain Bike Rack?

    I just sold my Lolo and went with a Velocirax. The Lolo was good but didn't work well with the bar width on a few of our bikes.
  3. Squeaky clutch pedal?

    Any updates? Mine seems to be coming from the clutch pedal spring. I squirted some dry lube on it but it's still squeaking. Mine sounds like an old rusty car door, really loud and annoying
  4. Getting ready to buy a new bike rack and I have a few questions that I couldn't find in the 35 page thread

    I have looked at all kinds of set ups and haven't come across anyone having any issues yet. I'm leaning towards something cheaper though because we really only use it a few times a year now
  5. Getting ready to buy a new bike rack and I have a few questions that I couldn't find in the 35 page thread

    The tongue weight is 10% of the towing capacity so I wonder how strong the crossmember actually is. There really isn't a good solution for carrying multiple bikes at the suggested tongue capacity aside from maybe a trailer but that brings a whole new set of problems.
  6. Getting ready to buy a new bike rack and I have a few questions that I couldn't find in the 35 page thread

    When you go over bumps and the bikes and rack are bouncing the weight is multiplied, I'm guessing that's where the 500lbs comes from. I'm between the VelociRAX and the 1UP and this concern may be causing me to lean toward the VelociRAX. I think I could strap or bungee the rack to the spare...
  7. Getting ready to buy a new bike rack and I have a few questions that I couldn't find in the 35 page thread

    I'm looking at the Velocirax 412 to replace the Lolo rack I just sold. I liked the Lolo I just didn't like the way it held my bike. I thought about going with something like the 1UP to save weight but after looking into it it really doesn't save that much weight and by the time I get it set...
  8. JLUR Manual clutch slipping at certain RPMs

    That sounds a lot worse than mine. Someone suggested mine may actually be something to do with the electronic throttle.
  9. JLUR Manual clutch slipping at certain RPMs

    When you guys say slipping does that mean the rpms are raising but the Jeeps not moving as if the clutch is completely worn out? Most of the time my Jeep 2018 with a little over 32,000 miles feels really smooth but in 3rd gear driving through town it doesn't. The best way to describe it is it...
  10. 255/75/17 or 265/70/17 on stock sport wheels (steel).

    OI went with 255/75's also and mine was either set up a little optimistic from the factory or it didn't change. My MPG's didn't drop much either but from past experince the wider tires seem to hurt MPG's more.
  11. When my cell phone rings through my stereo it sounds like the world is coming to an end

    I've about jumped out a few times, its pretty loud and always seems to happen when I'm zoned out
  12. Cant get my wiper blades off

    Thanks guys, I'll go try again *edit* There is an outer cover that seemed to be keeping the wiper blades from coming off
  13. Cant get my wiper blades off

    I have the original wiper blades on my Jeep and can't seem to remove them. I've pressed in the tab and when I try to get them out it feels like I am going to break something. Is there a trick to this?
  14. When my cell phone rings through my stereo it sounds like the world is coming to an end

    How do I adjust my ring volume on my stereo. I have the cheap 5" unit and have looked in the settings and under the phone menu.
  15. 6-speed feels strange in third gear, would this be a bad throw out bearing?

    I'm not sure there would be any way show it on a video. There is no change in sound, it just feels like I'm pulsating the gas pedal. It kind of give the feeling It's going to stall but it's not. In high school my friend had a 5seed Nissan sentra that he was learning to drive and it never...
  16. 6-speed feels strange in third gear, would this be a bad throw out bearing?

    The electronic throttle control seems more like what I'm feeling. Ive had/driven a lot of manual transmission equipped vehicles and this feels nothing like lugging in any of them. Not saying that's a bad suggestion but I've had 2 4cyl vehicles with larger tires that lugged all the time. When...
  17. 6-speed feels strange in third gear, would this be a bad throw out bearing?

    I think I ruled that out tonight, when it started I up shifted to 4th and the bumpyness went away but it then started lugging. Felt completely different.
  18. 6-speed feels strange in third gear, would this be a bad throw out bearing?

    It's always had the issue, I just downshifted before to avoid it but the probelm is still there and I don't want to be out of warranty and out of luck down the road. I don't notice it once down sifted but its a pretty big jump in rpms. I really don't notice it in any other gears at 1500 rpms...
  19. 6-speed feels strange in third gear, would this be a bad throw out bearing?

    I haven't really considered anything like that but it definetly feels more drive train related. It's almost like I lose and gain power rapidly.
  20. 6-speed feels strange in third gear, would this be a bad throw out bearing?

    At around 1500 RPM's especially in 3rd gear my JL feels kind of bouncy. Not really sure how else to explain it other than bouncy or as if the drive-train was connected through a spring. I don't know if its my discription or just a really uncommon problem but no one on any of the forums has...
