  1. How heavy is too heavy front bumper?

    Bumper, skid plate and winch totals 180 lbs. With a EVO 3-1/2" and Hydro bump stops, the front sagged 3/4" and the "bump stops" where always hitting just driving around town. Installed a 1/2" spacer on front coil springs and all is good now, much better. it's level and the stops aren't hitting
  2. 3.6 l Engine Oil Type

    Most Excellent, Thank You!
  3. 3.6 l Engine Oil Type

    Good up to 10,000 miles you say? I'm not going to take the time to search where and whom posted a convincing analysis that Synthetic oil is "belly up" by 7000 miles. It might have been in this thread.
  4. 3.6 l Engine Oil Type

    This always stirs the pot among our experts. Just did my second oil/filter change today at 980 miles, did the first one at 200. Every 5K from here on out. Just a few words regarding the Fumoto valve. I attached a 12”- 3/8” hose to it and drained it directly into the 5 gallon used oil container...
  5. 3.6 l Engine Oil Type

    Don't wait so long between oil changes Phil. 10,000 miles is really pushing it no matter what percentage your Jeep is telling you. Zero out your trip B mile counter when you do a oil change to keep track of mileage and change it more often, 8,000 max. The oil is your engine's life blood. I do...
  6. Wiring new Rigid LED's on existing circuit.

    Hey All! I replaced my factory bumpers with Poison Spyder Bruiser bumpers. The front/rear bumpers take cube lights so the factory upgraded "LED Package" for the front fog lights are round - won't work. Will the two "Rigid" lights I'm using that draw 6.28 amps (3.24 each) be ok on existing...
  7. 500 Mile Break in Oil change caused issues

    Sorry for the rant. By the time I finished reading 8 pages of the above, I was seeing "RED". To each his own, like the man said, peace of mind. It takes all kinds to make this world go 'round, hell, if we all thought the same, the whole population would be driving Jeeps and they'd all be the...
  8. 500 Mile Break in Oil change caused issues

    My jeep is somewhere between Toledo and Nampa Idaho right now. The dealer said Jeeps website was hacked and therefore has no idea where or WTF. I will drop the oil after 100 miles then at 500 miles and then at 4-5000 thereafter, I don't give a damn otherwise. I've been doing this to several...
  9. 22 wrangler order date, vin and actual deliveries.

    Ordered mid December, currently suppose to be in shipping status. My salesman said Jeeps system was hacked and who knows what the hell is going on now. It may still be in Toledo or in transit to Salt Lake City to where it will end up at Peterson's dealership in Nampa Idaho. What a...

    What's the world coming too
  11. The "Jeep Forgot about us and feeding us BS group"!

    I got an email saying mine was going into production the week of 04/04/2022. It was ordered 12/14.
  12. December 2021 Orderers Check In Here Please

    Ordered JLUXR on 12/14/2021. Tow package, cold weather group, gorilla glass, LED light package, 3.6L 8 speed, hardtop head liner, cloth seats, XR package. It was pulled out of D1 three weeks ago because of plastic door sill guards and cargo tub liner for the rear compartment, they are currently...
  13. It's Here.... And I Love It!

    Congratulations Dave! Lucky guy you are, I ordered mine mid December, still waiting..... Hey, how is the 4:56 gears and the 35" tires doing driving around there in CO? Do you see 8th gear a lot while driving? Are you planning to put on 37" tires?
  14. 3.6 l Engine Oil Type

    Back to just resetting the monitor without actually changing the oil. Years ago, I worked with a guy who insisted that oil didn't need to be changed and only the oil filter needed replacement on regular intervals. He claimed changing oil every 3000 miles was a scam and the oil didn't degrade. So...
  15. 3.6 l Engine Oil Type

    That sounds pretty good on paper Roan, but my devious mind see's that from a different angle after having a chat with the manager who insisted I'd be only saving $30 by doing the oil change myself, I didn't argue, I didn't want to burn any bridges, I may need his help for a future warranty...
  16. 3.6 l Engine Oil Type

    So, for some of us that change our own oil, what happens while under warranty the engine takes a dump. Beside having our receipts for oil and filter purchases, are we suppose to take a picture or video (that has a date), of the oil draining so it can be matched with the oil receipts? I asked the...
  17. Have you added up what you have spent on your JL

    Can't put a price on recreation..... Spyder Bruiser Bumpers, rear seat delete system from "Goose Gear", Tazer, Rigid lights for bumpers, suspension, Seat covers, Winch, tires. Geez, there is no end in sight. About $14K and counting. And still no Jeep yet, it was ordered mid December. I will be a...
  18. 37"tires with 4:56 gears

    All good input, thanks you guys!
  19. 37"tires with 4:56 gears

    Good stuff you guys, really appreciate your time and input..... I've got mine on order with the recon package with the 4:56's. Re gearing is not what I'd like to do just to run 37's. I've been down that road with too high of gears with oversize tires on a couple vehicles and it's left a bad...
