  1. Jeep Wave. Anyone feel like this?

    I don't wave for safety's sake. When you are posturing for attention then you sure aren't giving the road it's proper due. Just this weekend a jeep full of kids were coming down the road waving. Driver wasn't paying heed that the jeep was being steered across the centerline. Blew my horn and...
  2. Generally, at what angle will Jeep roll over?

    There are so many variables to get to that point; weight load, weight distribution, speed, how sharp you turn your wheels, etc. I was on an LHA in the US Navy in mid-76 in rough seas in the Pacific when we got caught in a trough. We rolled 35 degrees when the published maximum roll was 32...
  3. What’s in your Rear Cargo Space?

    Got a cache of gold, silver and diamonds in there. Also a ton of "BS" for the gullible.
  4. What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

    I got the GF to wash the Sport. Why not? She got it dirty!
  5. Some dirt bag rifled through my Jeep last night

    If you have a soft top be thankful whoever "they" are didn't use a knife to cut the top to get in. I made the mistake of rolling up the windows of my Samuri, in my driveway in Subic Bay, in '88. (Had 10 ft iron "security" fence with barbed wire on top) Doors were unlocked but the idiot cut...
  6. Car Wash with softtop?

    Sure do but it takes another 10 minutes to hand dry the jeep. Water here in Pamlico County is full of additives. So much that if I don 't hand dry pronto water will leave water stains.
  7. Car Wash with softtop?

    I live where bugs are the daily norm. That being said I wash my JL by hand for the simple reason it is good exercise and takes a quarter of the time a run through the carwash takes. Also, I don't have to worry about the side and rear windows getting screwed up. Speaking of windows I use some...
  8. Wind Stop and Tonneau Cover Stowage Solution

    My first purchase for my new-to-me 2018 2Dr JL Sport was the bag to stow my rear windows when enjoying the fine breezes down here on the NC Coast. Then I purchased the Quadratec Windstop/Tonneau Cover (WS/TC) set and immediately put them to the test during a 400 mile RT run up NAB Little Creek...
  9. JLU Soft Top

    I bought a used '18 JLU that, naturally, didn't have the straps. Found a set of 3 water hose retention Velcro straps ( 24" long) that does the job. Cost $3.97 at Home Depot.
  10. ‘20 Sport S Unlimited Build Recommendations

    Elliott, Have you checked out what's available at the Auto Hobby Shop at Dover AFB? I know my local base (MCAS CP NC) has a better equipped shop than most commercial shops. When you figure in the very low rental rate and the fact you are your own mechanic it is a win-win money-wise. Good luck...
  11. Has anybody ever regretted buying a Wrangler?

    I've had my "new to me" 2118 JL 2dr since last day of last year. Did have a "hick up" about 300 miles in but local dealer fixed it in no time at all. The No. 3 coil was bad and the dealer didn't hesitate to fix it on his dime. Other than above incident, the Jeep has been just fine...
