They confirmed the axle cracked in half ouch. I’m trying to get it covered by insurance first. If that doesn’t happen, then yes, definitely upgrading.

Why not buy a dynatrac or ud 44 for that price youre right in that range

I love the thread what did you do TO your Jeep but I want to see what you did with your Jeep. Did you commute, mud, crawl, mall crawl?

OK, I have posted a few times regarding my diesel turbo blowout as well as my overlanding trailer. A few days ago, after being on order for 4 months, I finally received and installed the Mopar 2” lift for the Ecodiesel. It turned out great giving me a 2-1/4” change from stock Rubicon. I am also running 35” tires and not electing to run the more popular 37”. The new suspension is a little stiffer than the stock. The handling is as it was before the lift. IMO.. what you would expect with straight axles...very very good manners. I now have the old stock suspension to find a new home for.

I have a JL Dana 44 with a locker in it that has 8 miles on it in the crate. If you want to upgrade. The axle is a Factory take off from a test vehicle. You are close enough to me that we would not have to ship it.

Moab trip: Elephant Hill, Top of the World, Fins and Things, Poison Spider, and White Rim Trail among other fun stuff. I can't get enough Moab.

I also love Moab. I plan to spend 6 to 8 weeks there in the spring of 22.

I loaded it up with food for 100+ people for a trail run today. There are about 45 Jeeps going with me Jeeping today. We will stop and cook lunch along the trail and end at a scramble area at the end of the day. Light and easy trail, many new people to Jeeping. The best thing is the local Jeep Dealership sponsored the trail run and paid for my fuel and my tail Jeep's fuel and all of the food. It should be a great day.

well I just dropped it on today, and pulled all the rope out to test how it coils back up. The winch works great and I love the wireless remote.
