Last few weeks, I’ve been having issues with the e-brake releasing. The handle functions just fine. And the brake holds just fine. When I engage then disengage the Ebrake, then start off, I can tell the brake is engaged and dragging. The handle also has visible slop at the down position...

Just got done changing the oil in my wife’s Toyota van. Get the jack out. Chock the wheels. Remove several annoying 8mm bolts for the splash guard. Drain. Then use some proprietary oil filter removal tool. Put in 6.4 qts of oil. That’s a 5qt jug then 28% of another 5qt jug. So lots of putting a...

A few months ago, I noticed the transfer case lever becoming harder and harder to shift. Last time wheeling a month ago, it was about impossible to shift into 4lo. I also noticed the “2H” light was flickering and sometimes going completely off. A few days after, “Service 4x4” and “Sway Bar...

Just curious what some of you have done to make the JL more errand-friendly. I have a truck. But it’s not as fun to drive and it’s also stored so a hassle to get in and out. I also had a small trailer but it was more hassle storing it as well. Last weekend, I had a house project and needed to...

I’m looking into getting a sunshade (ie Spiderwebshade). I currently have a soft top (black, obviously). Some days, I take the top completely off. But I’d like to have some sort of sun shade with me. Does the white color feel more “open” than black or other colors? I’m assuming it’ll be more...

I did a dumb thing over the weekend. I closed the soft top and thought I’d remember to latch it before taking off. Got distracted with the kids. Then pulled onto the main road at 40mph. KaBOOOM!! The thing flies open, kids are screaming, I’m trying to figure out what happened….😖😫😆 After...

I’m looking for some better cargo management for my JLU. I’d really prefer a simple cargo shelf like the Tuffy cargo cover, but without all of the “features”. I don’t need a lift with struts or the part that covers the front (I have the Alpine system so won’t fit anyway). A simple shelf...

Anyone know how well the Peak Grey matches Sting Grey? If it’s not that close, I’ll just get black.

It was a little cold this morning. Around 15 deg. The Jeep was covered in salt so I decided to give it a quick rinse at a local car wash. I sprayed everything down, including the undercarriage, and got back in to start the Jeep. It started fine, but the clutch pedal stuck to the floor for...

I’ve been looking at ordering a new JLUR but running into one issue after another dealing with dealers. I found a nice 2018 with around 30k miles. Unlimited Rubicon, 6-speed. Looks to be in good shape. Would you have any reservations with buying a first production year?
