Anyone test their bluetooth connectivity? I'm pretty disappointed. The 8.4" Uconnect still uses old Bluetooth technology. When streaming video from a phone or tablet for example, there is a 1 second lag/delay between the audio and video.

Newer Bluetooth protocol such as AptX would have solved the delay. $50K vehicle and it cant even get the tech right. SMH

Anyone getting rocks stuck between the rock sliders?? I know there is a fix for the fenders with the same issue but didn’t think about this too. I just ordered the trim to put in fenders May have to see it it works here as well

Installed front and rear track bars from Rusty’s off-road. Front axle was 1/4inch off center, the back was centered. Crazy how with just a 2” lift it shifts everything. Also had to re-center the steering wheel. Now it sits perfect.

Looks really nice!!! If mine wasn’t leased I’d lift it.. but my rims and tires go on tomorrow so I’m pumped

Picked her up today for my GF. Didn't wake up this morning thinking I would be buying my first Jeep ever, but I'd been researching for a few weeks. She was on Jeep.com indicating she was at the dealership, but wasn't on their website till this morning. I drove over, saw it and went to my bank and got pre-approved. Went back and the rest is history. She wasn't even prepped for sale yet and GF wanted to driver her home as is (it was late and would have taken a while to get her cleaned up). She'll get cleaned up and prepped by the dealership on Saturday when we turn in the GF's car. Lucky I went in when I did. There were apparently 4 other people looking to buy her today if my deal fell through.

The KM2's ARE loud. I'm thinking I will be switching to KO2's soon. I want to get 315/70's, but it doesn't sound as if I can do that in stock configuration? If I can, that would be awesome. I am planning to get an RK 3.5 Flex, but that's not right away. I do like the stock wheels (for now) and will keep them for a little bit. I'll post more after she's been cleaned up.

I just bought this tubing and put it between my front fenders and body. Keeps the small rocks out. Might work for the rails too.

Just noticed my rear bumper has sensors on it. Planning on replacing it with an AEV rear bumper once they come out later this year. Any idea if these sensors will prevent a rear bumper replacement?

Those sensors are required for your Rear Park Assist feature. If you want to retain that feature, any replacement bumper would need the appropriate sized holes to accommodate the sensors.

Thanks. Not sure how that will play out with after market bumpers

on another thread, anyone replace their black tow hooks with red ones? how hard is it to do that? Saw a white MOAB like mine in town but it had red two hooks and looked good.

I personally like the black accents on the MOAB, but if you want to change them out, you need to remove the bumpers to do so. So it's not super easy, but doable if you wanted the different look.

Agree! Love the black theme of the Moab!
