MT. That’s what has frozen my factory order Willys. 10-4 on the side steps. Going for the factory running boards as they flow from fender to fender really well.
Can you also compare with Centerforce’s offerings? You’re at the same price point, but their kit also replaces hydraulics.
Very nice. Sting-Grey?I fixed my “where the hell is my Willys” issue. And fixed my have to regear the 3:45 issue. Picked this up today 17345 miles. 2.5 years more warranty. $31,000. Cold Weather Tow package and a few more goodies!
Unfortunately the word is justified. Simply read this thread, which is about owners of manual transmissions, and count how many pages don't have someone talking shit about how an MT is the devil incarnate, ancient incapable technology long bereft of benefits, phased out of existence twenty years ago, blah blah blah.... This isn't even the right thread.Hey we all have choices. I can understand preferring a manual or an auto. But HATE for one with all caps is a bit much, no?
I like bolt actions and revolvers, but I don't hate the autoloaders
I've delayed this inevitable research on well. I understand the CF has three(?) variations but we usually only hear about the dump truck version. For the Southbend, I don't recall seeing comments on how it drives.
so I actually liked this clutch when it arrived, felt like the type of thing I could drive for 20yr until I start getting old. 
(Never mind that it's mechanically an automatic maybe with software that follows instructions)
Probably because most drivers unfortunately don’t want it so why spend money in r&d of something that sophisticated that statistically nobody wantsI've delayed this inevitable research on well.

The stock system can be very fast when you're in the mood. That was never true on my 94 YJ even though the AX15 was awesome. I've driven a friend's Dodge Cummins one tonne and that clutch gave you back pain, probably 20lb plus. I've had times outdoors where I've gotten so dehydrated that I couldn't keep my foot in place on the accelerator pedal without leg cramps
I wonder why no one has marketed a "fly by wire manual transmission": See you just set the desired pressure, the magnetic actuator ensures the proper force, and you control shifting!!
(ps yeah plenty of fluids back at the vehicle, but rehydration takes time)
If you like the stock clutch, then you should run the stock clutch. It is going to give you the lightest pedal feel and reduces the most transmission noise, etc.
Its a very specific process to be reimbursed for recall work. The customer service rep can’t do anything about it until there is an approved repair.
Yes. I ordered a Sarge Green for my MT Willys. This Rubi in Sting Gray was the only JL Wrangler 2 door manual new or used in Western Canada.. Dealers and every buy/sell checked. Turns out the colour is really growing on me. It gets lighter in the sun and almost dark grey/ carbon fibre colour in darker light. Pretty cool.
On good! Companies listen to customers!
That's why they put a dial gear selector in the automatic, so if someone is here griping how their auto is the schizzle just wait five years (ago) and the gear selection will all be pushbutton. Gotta make room for phones for four! (Customer requests are a competition. The winner is...)
