Golly
Golly Vern, compared to Porsche and Land Rover we look Good! (And given Jeepâs history of âqualityâ thatâs scaryđł. Imagine how bad Rovers must beđ
As noted sounds like the shifter is ânewâ. Towing shouldnât cause an issue (I drug mine 500 miles behind the MH Today.). My 20 has been drug many thousands of miles with no issues. Try this trick. When you pull out of the drive and get pointed straight pull it back into 4H for a second...
Very good advice. You are on a Jeep forum, and most here are Jeep nuts (include myself). That said, a âYota will be a better DD than a Jeep, plus Toyota quality is legendary, Jeep LACK of quality Is equally legendary. you stated that light off road is what you do. Iâve got a Jeep (and...
Iâve got a Smittybilt thatâs worked just fine. Iâd shop for the best deal I could find on a known brand. Thereâs some funky stuff coming out of China, but most of the winches just work-heck even the base Warns are Chinese these days.
I know that at least half mine were loose as delivered-some almost to the point of coming out. I checked and seated before leaving the dealership. Certainly not a healthy condition.
Well, live and learn. I thought they were just worried about whatâs coming out of the pipe. If lights,brakes And exhaust were good you were set.. sure am glad. I donât have to mess with that stuffđ
Ok, Iâll bite. ( bear in mind Iâm an old fart, and the 5 states Iâve lived in never had an inspection requirement) but why/how would changing a battery effect vehicle emissions? Engine mods ok, but changing a battery?
This. A stock Rubicon is very capable. Youâve stated itâll not be used seriously off road? Why would you want to spend big $$ to create potential problems, knowing up front that you are decreasing both longevity AND on road performance. The more âoff roadâ you make it (for either function...
Just remember, immediately after WW2 LA had THE most sophisticated light rail system (public transportation) in the country. A certain very large corporation with two initials that manufactures motor vehicles bought this system and then promptly dismantled it-immediately creating a huge new...
LJ. At 120k the JL is reaching the point where work WiLL be required. LJparts are cheaper, it will be easier to work on and keep running, and itâll be going long after the electronics on the JL have gone TU and itâs been junked because of lack of parts availability. Those old Jeeps are...
Yup, those old Jeeps were running the same trails decades ago and did just fine thank you. A LOT less complexity,and weight andFAR more maneuverable. Basic 2 seater, rubber floors, basic gauges, manual trans, 140 ponies or so and 30 mpgâsâ-Take my moneyđ
Iâve driven both, went with the 2.0 and no regrets. Would go that route again. That said, if youâve not previously owned a Jeep do yourself a HUGE favor and rent one first. Live with it for a week. If you still think itâs the berries then âmaybeâ itâll be a good match for you. Jeeps...
