  1. I have a new fuel pump!

    I notice step 1. of the procedure is Battery Disconnect. I removed my AUX battery, pulled fuse 42, disabled hood switch some time ago. I guess I better restore it all to OEM specs before I take it in. The dealer will likely give me a ration of crap over "non-approved modifications" or void my...
  2. No more tent for me!

    Nice! I'm picking up a Timberleaf Pika teardrop trailer the end of the month. Been waiting almost a year! All these little trailers are very popular.
  3. Removal of Aux battery and auto start stop question

    I did everything exactly per your plan. No issues. I like not having the aux battery ticking timebomb just waiting to blow up at the worst possible time.
  4. "Attic" storage solutions?

    Thanks for your post. I was thinking about attic storage but I had not found Blue Ridge Overland Gear. I just placed an order.
  5. GMRS Antenna Install Question

    A good ground plane is definitely required. Your light bracket idea may work fine if you remove all paint/powder coating at contact points and use a conductive paste. I mounted my antenna as shown and ensured a good frame ground via the mounting bolt. I also grounded the hood via a ground...
  6. Oil change drama

    He saw white smoke in the rear view mirrors. Most likely from oil on the exhaust header pipes.
  7. Severe corrosion on exhaust front pipe/manifold

    That's some pretty severe corrosion on a '21 model. I would think a heavy dose of road salt did it. Don't have that problem here in So Cal High Desert. We do get snow, and they do salt the bridges and mountain passes, but I rarely drive in it. If I do, I make sure to spray the underside when...
  8. Service Electronic Stability Control

    Here's my experience with the ESC in my 2021 JLURD. I was driving on a 2-lane highway with a rumble strip on the right hand side of the road. So, I'm going about 70-75 mph and taking a long, gradual curve to the left. I drift a little too far to the right and the right side tires ride on the...
  9. JLUR owners with GMRS radios - looking for handset mounting options

    I used this mount from Quadratec for my GMRS: https://www.quadratec.com/p/quadratec/quick-disconnect-cb-radio-mount-jeep-wrangler-jl. I used the Grab Bar Mike Mount from Bulletpoint. I also have a CB installed and use the Bulletpoint mike mount that mounts on the tray up on the dash. The CB is...
  10. Brake controller

    I just finished installing the Mopar hitch and wiring harness. The hitch install is pretty simple. The harness was a bit of work. The instructions were drawn up by sombody that never did the install. Anyway, the brake sense wire , or brake light trigger, is indeed in the passenger side...

  12. Help. Harness? Brake Controller? Tow Package? The dealer said...

  13. Must do customization

    The dead pedal is an absolute must have for me! Prior to getting one, there was no where I could place my left leg and be comfortable. With the dead pedal I can cruise along for hours!
  14. Next Gen (JM?) Wrangler 2-Door - Think it'll be longer?

    I like my 4 dr. I did remove the rear seats, though. The extra cargo space is used on every off-road trip.
  15. Must do customization

    I actually like the factory antenna. But then, I never take it through a car wash. I'm a bucket, sponge, hose in the driveway kinda guy.
  16. Am I Special Needs? 🤟🤪🤙

    I'm 69 years old. Not a mechanic, but I can turn a wrench. I installed a new front bumper and winch, auxiliary front lights with harness and dash switch, Mopar hitch and trailer wiring harness and brake controller, Mopar 2" lift kit, CB and GMRS radios. Each one of these projects took me a lot...
  17. Which Mopar 2" lift kit part #?

    I installed Mopar #77072399AG on my Rubicon Diesel. I am seeing an honest 3" of lift. I expected about 1.5" to 2". I have 100 lbs of winch and aluminum bumper and camping/prospecting stuff on board.
  18. Which Lift Kit to Choose?

    I just finished installing the Mopar 2"" lift on my 2021 JLUR diesel. Did the job myself. I am 69 years old and I'm not a mechanic, I'm just an old, retired telephone guy. It took me about a week to get it done. Some of that time was spent chasing down some required tools and waiting on UPS...
  19. Damn that's Cold! Windshield washer line (I suspect) burst

    53F here in the Great Mojave Desert in So. California. I'm from Michigan, though, so I know about the cold! Hoping the best for you all, that the power stays on and that you don't suffer any damage to the house or toys!!
