The clutch gang!

[AlamedaJeep]

I'll have to check this clutchless start thing in 4L next time I am on the trail. Thanks.

Starting without the clutch in 4L works, but it's not ideal.

First, it only works after a stall (accidental or on purpose). It doesn't work on a cold start.

Second, you only have about 20-30 seconds to restart without the clutch. The instrument panel display will show when it's possible. After that time you have to do a regular start.

The factory cross members are complete garbage anyway. 1 less thing to remove when I installed my Artec skids. For the record I've had the same issues with the button after stalling on an obstacle. It's not ideal.

My ASFIR skid bolts to the factory cross member. A kind forum member gifted one to me.

Been ages since I've been on

Are Manuals still not available to be ordered or is that over?

I believe that's over.

I believe that's over.

Thank God for that

I was thinking the same thing about the cross member. My Artecs arrive tomorrow. I had a little issue with the push to start if I panic. Just push the clutch in, foot on the brake, and push the button and I've had no other problem.

It's more than that. I've had it cough and sputter and not want to start as well as do nothing at all.

Just to add to the thread, I'm getting my Centerforce Dual Friction Clutch installed Monday.

did the stock cardboard one fail?

Manual transmission is life. I think all vehicles should go back to being manuals. Makes you pay attention to what your doing

Nah, not yet at least.

Jeep is going back in for service on a Rear Main Seal Leak. Dealership agreed to install new clutch for free so picked up the Centerforce. Couldn't pass up a free clutch install, lol.

Most Millennials dunno how to drive stick shift, I just don't wanna be that one. Besides, the stick shift saves you $2,750 if you want V6.

I'd pay extra for the stick shift if I had to.

How do you like the Centerforce clutch? How's it compare to stock? I've been thinking about upgrading.....

Save another 9% for 2021 as the 3.6/auto is now $3,000

It's awesome, clutch has a very clear engagement point, my shifts are a lot smoother now, at least for me rev hang has not been an issue so far, and off roading with 37s is now a pleasure in 4l. I have yet to stall offroading and I haven't re geared yet.

Hello friends. I'm keeping the dream alive. 2021 with a 6 speed manual because I don't know how to drive automatic.
