  1. Winch buying advice needed

    I have a 12K Warn Platinum and although a great winch it is stupid expensive and the remote is truly a joke - the battery constantly drains itself to 0% in a month with no usage and Warn has been zero help. Lots of YouTube stories on this. This is mounted on my Sprinter. I have the 12K Alex...
  2. How much do some of you spend on your jeeps

    Did I spend too much on my 2019 Sport to turn it into a Rubicon on steroids - yep. Do I regret it - nope. Now also I have yanked more stock jeeps and Toyotas out than have yanked me out - just saying
  3. Self-Inflicted Damage?

    I have been to MOAB, done the Rubicon and wheeled all over California. Lots of pin strips on paint and gouges on bumpers front and back but those were upgraded from stock early on - bumpers just got rattle can black to fix. Now the after market skid plates have been pounded - they are aluminum...
  4. Federal law - purchase Jeep for CA in CA

    Total BS. Total BS from the dealer sales individual. I bought my Wrangler in Nevada and live in CA. It will have to be a 50 state emission vehicle which pretty much everything is these days and you will have to register as a new vehicle in your state within a defined period to capture correct...
  5. JL Cargo Area Lighting Upgrade

    No I added a switch and that turns power on and off to the cargo light. My point was if you turned on the switch I added and then turned on the cargo light and then turned off the switch I added the setting of the cargo light is not remembered (latched). So if you turn your switch back on then...
  6. JL Cargo Area Lighting Upgrade

    Ok I just completed the Oracle cargo light install and hard wiring into the rear cargo area lighter/12V plug. Most/all items I mention are covered in the various posts to this thread but I thought I would add my thoughts and observations. First off the Oracle Cargo light is awesome and I only...

    Here you go. They are on Amazon: AZUTO Cup Holder for Jeep Wrangler (JL) / Gladiator (JT) Right-Side 2018-2023 (Cup Holder Right) Wrangler
  8. Anyone tried both KO2s and Baja Boss A/Ts?

    I have had K02s and now drive Mickey Thomas Baja Boss. I have had zero issue with noise or loudness on the Mickeys. Now on my K02s they started out quiet but two things will stop me from buying them ever again - as they wore down they got unbearably loud and in hard pack snow or icy conditions...
  9. ARB Dual Air Mounting - Underseat?

    Nope and mine is a home brew Kraken under pass seat my local 4X4 shop did for considerably less than the cost of the Kraken
  10. Mpg

    I have a heavily mod’d 2 door Sport with Lockers, 37s, Dana front and rear, 4.88 gears, roof rack for skis/Kayaks/overlanding gear etc and get 15-17mpg depending on driving conditions . I live in Tahoe at 6500 ft so mostly mountainous terrain which hurts mileage
  11. ARB Dual Air Mounting - Underseat?

    I have mine under the passenger seat and also use ARB air lockers. I really like it there and have an air chuck for both the passenger side and drivers side,. The power switch is in my auxiliary switches under the radio. For the air lockers it literally runs for a second or two and it does not...
  12. How Screwed Did I Just Get On My First Service Appointment? $4.5k Bill

    I can get a full synthetic oil change for $100 gI’ve or take or do it yourself. Rotation I don’t think I have ever paid for rotation and have done it myself many times - my tire shop will do it and balance for free. As for alignment my Jeep upgrade shop did mine for free as I spent lots of...
  13. Going to 4.88 or 5.13 for 37s?

    I have 37s and 4:88s on my 2 door. I previously had 35s with the 4:88s. Mine was a sport originally and the stock gears were terrible - barely saw 7th never mind 8th. I love the 37s over the 35s for rolling over rocks but I can’t see or feel any Eng/trans performance difference between when I...
  14. GMRS Antenna Install Question

    Exactly. The Ghost antenna gives plenty of range for trial runs. Running around to hit repeaters etc the 6db is the jam. I will be mounting a HAM radio as well so need to sort that antenna setup
  15. GMRS Antenna Install Question

    I use two antennas for my Wouxun KG-1000. When running normally I use a 6db dual band VHF/UHF antenna as the KG-1000 can receive VHF. I also have a ghost antenna similar to what you have to put on when running on treed trails to avoid the antenna pounding on the A-pillars etc. I mount both...
  16. Damage danger???

    Probably fine on road and mild no rock crawling off road. Ball joints etc as mentioned above will wear faster but when they go upgrade them. As for the axle I would be very cautious if on 5+ trail offroading as it will bend eventually if you do it regular or semi regularly - I have seen it...
  17. GPS and Coms Advice Needed

    Weird I have not really had position update issues wrt my iPhone 13 and CarPlay into the Jeep head unit. I have heard of people having Issues with an aftermarket head unit with its own GPS conflicting with the phone mapping and its GPS. The one issue I have with CarPly is if I scroll around...
  18. Midland and Jeep Collaborate on Midland T77VP5J JEEP X-TALKER Walkie Talkies

    FRS radios seriously. All my friends use GMRS exclusively. A few also carrier either HAM or CB, but not bubble pack FRS radios
  19. Keep and upgrade my Sahara or trade it in for a Rubicon?

    I have a Sport and sort of went nuts on the build and am still going. It is more than a Rubicon now with the exception of the 4:1 transfer case. My Jeep sees a fair amount of dirt and we did 5 trails this year at EJS from a 5->7. I ended up with a Teraflex long arm setup, new Dynatrac...
