  1. Can I exercise the 4WD?

    Gotta embarass myself here but need confirmation. I have access to a quiet, quarter-mile straightaway. If I stick to the owner's manual and return to 2WD before I turn around, can I exercise my 4wd 4HI and 4LO on dry pavement just to keep the drivetrain loosened up? The 4wd shift is harder...
  2. Retirees...a ride question.

    I am asking retirees since we most often worry about ride quality and I need an opinion. My wife's 2 door 2018 S (see avatar) is now in darn near showroom shape after all the repairs. She's going to trade it in in 2 years for her new car. When I retire in 2 years, I thought with 2 years more...
  3. After they replaced the axle...

    Hi everyone. Axle clicking noise. 2018 2dr Sport 3.6 auto After the first dealer botched a right-rear backing plate replacement, causing the axle seal leak, the second dealer put in a loaded axle and now it doesn't leak. But when I go forward, a very slight click-click-click... can be heard...

  5. OEM tire iron question.

  6. Well, my Toledo Jeep Fest trip got grenaded.

  8. Choosing a ball mount drop?

    I need a 7" drop for the Wrangler 2 dr. But not sure to go 6" or 8" that are available. My utility trailers are 2000 max weight and 200# tongue weight. I'll rarely pull that. So I can go 6" and have some elevation of the tongue empty or go 8" with some downward tongue when trailer loaded...

  10. EGR Repair uses which warranty?

    Hi. 2018 JL 3.6 at 75K miles. Throwing a P0401 code (EGR Insufficiency). Should that be covered under a factory Emissions warranty (up to 80K miles?) with $0 deduct -or- would that fall under my 7yr/125 Mopar extended warranty with $100 deduct? Just want to be prepped for dealer shenanegans...
  11. Just ordered a torque plate.

    I'm bored. So I'm posting. I just ordered a torque plate for my Subaru EJ 2.0L 204D NA build. Been stalled on this build for a year now and the few shops that will condescend to do just a little bore and hone work on a EJ20 only have 2.5L plates. So I have a shop I trust, soon to have the...
  12. She smacks the mailbox into tomorrow.

    Wife is a nurse and left home this morning at 6AM, in the dark, with her JL aptly named "Fiona". See my avatar. She claimed she "didn't see it in the backup camera", but she backed into the black blow-molded mailbox and cue-balled that thing it into the street along with any caution or care...
  13. How to make 4-way mount better?

    Hi. I think this a Mopar hitch but I have a Curt 4-way connector and mount. Before I go crazy customizing a nice looking mount that won’t fall out, please recommend a great way to use this Mopar mount with a Curt sized 4-way connector. Thanks!
  14. Confirmation please on wiring kit.

    Can I get a confirmation on this is the easiest/best kit to get wiring for the hitch? I'm towing a 400# 4x6 garden trailer with minimum incandescent lighting. My 2 door Sport Wrangler has Incandescent bulbs. No brake kit. I can get this for $70 sooooo...... Curt CUSTOM WIRING HARNESS...

  20. Cloud Storage.

    My work's perk of unlimited cloud storage (Google) is being reduced to 15GB. Yea. So I'm getting my own. 500GB will do. But even at $120/yr, ($10/mo) that's my entire year's raise. Anyone have a favorite cloud backup/storage?
