Anyone know of a fuse that can be pulled to prevent the Jeep from starting? Fuel pump? Ignition etc? Leaving it outside for a couple weeks in my driveway and want it to be here when I get back.

If they bring a flatbed they can have it.

Take the battery out and put it on a trickle charger. It keeps your battery fresh and makes it harder for them to steal. Also back into the driveway all the way up to the garage door and put the emergency brake on. If you have a soft top, that might not help much...

It only takes about 10 minutes to remove the paneling that the start button is attached to. Just remove that paneling and unplug the start button and put it on your kitchen counter before you leave. Can't steal a vehicle with no start button. ;)

(Photos from last fall when I was seeing if I could move my push button start somewhere else in the vehicle.)

Pop a couple relays out. Fuses can be replaced and some of the better thieves carry them in their packs anyway. pull K02 and K08 for example.

Keep the FOB away from outside walls/doors/windows, better yet, put it in a sealed container lined with foil or a sealed metal box. Prevents CLONING the fob.
It's not that hard to disable these things.

Go to the bank and take out a 50k loan and offer the Jeep as collateral. They will store it securely. When you get back go back and repay the loan and get your Jeep back. Parking and storage for $100
