  1. A Primer on JL Suspension and Steering

    I’ve spent a lot of time over the last few years learning about the details of the Jeep JL(U) suspension and intricacies of lifting and articulation. I thought it may be helpful for us to have a single thread with an “intro” course to help with misinformation and to have a one stop shop for...
  2. 4xe - Accurate 12V Battery Testing

    My wife has the Jeep out of town, or I'd test this myself. We've got the standard battery tell-tale, a dash lit up like a Christmas tree, and fifteen DTCs. Only five months ago, I replaced the battery with Autozone's best available replacement. When the OEM battery failed, it passed the...
  3. Show Off your Underhood Wiring Organization

    Like many, I've tried and failed to keep my underhood wiring nice and neat as I've added items. I've got another stack of things to install, and I want to spend some time redoing everything under the hood. I'd appreciate if those of you who have put time into getting it right would share some...
  4. New Aftermarket Driveshaft Alternative - Teraflex RZeppa

    I noticed @TeraFlex released a new product that may be an option for some on here, and didn't see it discussed. When looking at driveshafts a couple years back, I noticed that TF offered a high angle RZeppa for the JK front driveshaft, but not the JL. Well, look what just got listed in their...
  5. SOS - "Service Hybrid Charging System" NO START after 12V battery replacement (SOLVED)

    Well, we almost made it home from Montana. Jeep is currently stranded 400 miles from home. The 12V battery died over the course of the trip, finallly giving up Sunday. Experienced the standard Christmas Tree and all system freak-out when it finally gave up. I replaced the battery with a new...
  6. Discussing the 4xe with the Jeep Talk Show

    Thought some of you guys may get a kick out of this, or at least find it interesting. Since we ordered the Jeep, I've been listening to a podcast called The Jeep Talk Show as well as interacting with the JTS team via Discord, weekly Zoom round tables, and even wheeling with the guys out in Moab...
  7. Wheel Center Cap Extensions

    Kind of off topic, but hoping someone has run across this. I'm running Raceline Clutch 17x8.5 5x5 +18mm on both the Jeep and the camper trailer I'm building. We've had them on the Jeep for a year and a half, and I bought more for the trailer. Here's the issue, the Raceline center caps are too...
  8. Utah Metalcloak CS Kudos

    Everything can break, especially when you go on a 7k miles plus trip and hit all the trails you can on the way. I want to give some Kudos to Chris at Metalcloak. I’ve had some email correspondence before with him on some fitment confirmations. But the other night I shot him a request for help...

  11. SxS Shopping Recommendations

    Considering picking up a side by side. The Jeep is my wife’s DD, so she’s concerned about getting the interior filthy on trips, and has some weird aversion to flipping it. Considering picking up a SxS to abuse. I love the mod process, and doing the work myself. Cost isn’t a huge issue, but...
  12. Aftermarket full coverage/high clearance flares plastic/poly

    Hey Guys, The last two wheeling trips I’ve either ripped off or broken the OEM flares, and they are mud stained at this point. I’d like to replace the set with a a high clearance set, without screwing with chopping since I’d like to replace them anyways. I need full coverage (similar to...
  13. 4xe Parking/Emergency Brake Extension for Lift/Droop

    This has come up from myself and a couple others within other threads, and I figured it deserves it's own so we can get some visibility and (hopefully) a solution. The rear parking brake on the 4xe has a slightly different configuration than the standard JL. As in the JL, the parking brake...
  14. 4xe Aftermarket Driveshafts - Discussion

    Now that lifts are coming out, let's talk aftermarket front driveshafts for our rigs. Looks like there may be a couple changes that may require custom/specific lengths/options compared to most of the "off the shelf" options. I'm concentrating on the front since that's my limiting factor on...

  17. Clearancing Aftermarket Front Bumper for Tire Contact

    Well, I've managed to create a tire cleaner with the Rugged Ridge HD Full Width front bumper, the "high clearance ends" are rubbing even without turn at full stuff on the ramp. So on the ramp, I'm currently bumper limited and it looks like I've got a decent amount to go before lifting a tire...
