Jeep humor waiting room ( ** NO POLITICS ** )

[Steveo]

It was $160 before taxes for 4 hours. I was nowhere near the 4. Oh well.

Seems like $160 well spent to me! I woulda spent $40 on Home Depot "parking lot attendants"

I later got this answer when I asked for clarification on a) who exactly is an "accredited shop" and b) do I have a choice in different lift kits, or do I have to go with what they use (If I decide to even let them put their grubby hands on Beebe), which is BDS (still never heard of it). I got the following answer not too long ago.

kind of a vague answer. not one word about mopar lift which is a approved dealer installed product that would be covered under warranty. bds is not affiliated with jeep. also the answer "lift company has their own warranty" is raising a red flag.

i have a feeling that the dealership will use a local shop that installs lifts, etc. on a vehicle. then the dealership will put a insane markup on the price and sell it as a "custom vehicle". right there, the dealership will determine whats covered or not for warranty. usually its not covered.

the dealerships by me will do that. example: i looked at a ford f-350 crew cab short bed truck, that had add ons that was done outside the dealership. lift, tires, bumpers, lights. the dealership slapped on a $25k markup on top of a $75k msrp. i found out that the dealership can refuse any warranty word due to the custom work that was done to it.

heres my feeling about this. its a mopar lift and the dealer installs it = warranty coverage. anything else, your skating on thin ice. just dont want to see you get burned on lack of miss info.

Got a chuckle when I saw this - I dug all mine by hand during the summer (glutton for punishment and only 30 years old at the time) when we lived in the high desert up by Edwards AFB, nothing but caliche (they land airplanes and space craft on it so not soft).

Two guys who lived up the street saw me and stopped by for tips on installing a irrigation system - told them whatever you do save killing yourselves and rent a ditch witch. They did - two days later job was half dug but ditch witch was gone, when I asked what happen they said even with the ditch witch it was to hard and they had a professional coming by to install.

Worked construction one summer in Tucson. We were trenching for footings with a Ditch Witch, got caliche. Had to bring a jackhammer.

I have the Falcon 3.2s. Yes, I'm a cheapo and didnt get the 3.3s with the adjuster knobs for an extra $500.
I spun the shocks for a softer ride since the weather was getting colder and may be done wheeling for the year. It took me about 30mins. for all four.
I think I'm okay spinning them. LOL

That's a sweet mud and rock collector you've installed.
It would be a shame if the piston got scored.

A bit of Glenlivet, a campfire, and this sky. Not a bad night. I think once the fire goes out I'll climb in the teardrop and test the Fire Stick on the TV. Washington vs. UVLA is starting soon.

House #2 in Savannah got nothing overnight. I could have farted on a bush and stirred up more leaves. I don't think we got a drop of rain either.

The MIL had been watching the news and weather for three days before I got here and was convinced we were going to get hammered. I'll admit that at times things could have gone pear shaped, but I was prepared.

I understand that she lives here for free and also that she has every right to be worried, but this isn't my first time around the block with a hurricane.

I have to keep our house in Massachusetts ready for anything, and her's within a 4 to 6 month maintenance cycle when we come down.

She's not the best tenant.

Caliche sounds like something you might need to get a shot for from the doctor.

I bought a set of 3.3’s, used because I’m a cheap bastard too, they are great! Easy to adjust, no messing with tiny screws with vague detents. I liked them so much I bought another set for my sons Jeep. They were 3.1’s but I bought the adjusters and installed them. The hardest part was refilling them with nitrogen. I couldn’t find anyone here in town to do it so I just said fuck it and rented a cylinder and bought a regulator off Amazon and did it myself.

I need to find a stock ride height set for the Boss’s Jeep. Did I mention I like them? A lot?

Buy the adjusters, they are worth it.

Oh for sure, I am going to get it in writing about my factory warrenty being covered if I want a lift afterwards. I was also sketched out about the answer I got. Though the guy I was given at the dealership is a Jr salesman and couldn't tell you the difference between a Rubicon and a Sahara.

So I'll have to go in and ask that question again to someone who actually knows their ass from their face...,
