Diesel Sahara 40s No Wonton! Blasphemy

How many gallons of DEF did it take?

Each container is 2.5 gal and I used around 1.5 containers so around 4 gals I suppose. My warning wasn’t on yet but I was taking a road trip the next day so I filled it. I currently have a little over 8700 miles, I bought it with like 10 miles on it and I’ve used 4 of the 2.5 g containers to date. It’s no 10k miles but I’d say it gets the same range roughly as my 20 ram 2500 for def

I had to refill mine at 2400, 2.5 gal brought me up to 3/4 tank. I had just towed our m1102 trailer with its soft top on, which is a giant parachute, 500 miles on a very windy day. It drank through fuel and def on that drive!

Been a while since I posted here. Not much has been done, added Mopar passive entry.

just got back from San Diego and was swarmed by bees. Tops were off and we stopped to check out squeeze on pinyon mountain and over 100 bees inside the jeep. That was a fun day…. No pics. Averaged 23mpg throughout whole trip.

currently 11.5k miles and how it sits

In Arizona it’s finally topless season. Plus ordered some Lange mirrors. Nothing really that’s been new. Next upcoming order will most likely be RPM 2.5 ton steering and some balljoints. Just got 15k miles so will be changing out fuel filter this weekend.

Less than 10k miles on these shocks and my rocksports aren’t aging well.

was the MC lift built for the ED?

orginally setup was for a 3.6, when they released their diesel it’s just coil isolators that’s different however they sent me new coils with the diesel coil isolators and the part no. Is different on the new coils they sent me vs the old ones so idk. @Metalcloak @Matsonian would be better suited to answer those questions related to their suspension. I can say it rides great and flexes great

Did a shake down today at Elvis in AZ on road anti rocks feel interesting as there’s a little more body roll but not bad. I felt a little stiff offroad and was lifting rear wheel where I normally don’t lift. Did rip the boot off rear driveshaft today tho

curious about a couple of things on your build.

first (and perhaps easiest); why did you do the Fender liners? was there a problem they solved?

more importantly, which version of the Antirocks did you get (standard or heavy-duty) and what do you think of them now that you've had a little while longer to play with them?
