XTREME RECON Edition JL Club Thread

2 more questions: 1. Did you tint the front driver/passenger windows? 2. Willys is LSD; therefore, can I drive it in 4H as much as I want? The Rubicon locks so I understand you can't dirve with wheels locked all the time.

No, you cannot drive your Jeep in Part Time 4H, even with LSD. LSD doesn't affect your ability to drive in 4WD on dry pavement. The danger comes from the front and rear tires rotating at different speeds during a turn, which your transfer case will not be able to do while it is in 4WD.

The exception to those rule is if you have the optional 4WD Full Time system, which shows you to select between 4WD Full Time and 4WD Part Time. It's safe to use 4WD Full Time on dry pavement.

Agree with the answer above in regards to question 2. For the first question, I did tint the front driver and passenger with 20% to match the back and on the windshield I put a brow at 5%. Turned out great.

Can I get my Xtreme Recon through an automatic carwash that puts your tire in a track, then you put in neutral? I'm not sure the tires will fit...for today, it warming up enough to go to a coin operated wash...

I took mine through one a couple days ago and went fine, of course I folded the mirrors back and removed the 13” antenna… the only complaints I’d have is it doesn’t clean the spare wheel at all, of course doesn’t shine the spare, and doesn’t shine the four tires completely… so I had to touch up a little afterwards. But not much more than I had to with my Expedition…

I have run my XR through a tracked auto car wash several times. No issues at all!

A little late posting. I picked it up last week. Wife snapped the pic when I was trying to take a look around.

Very nice JLULWXR or whatever...they are so much bigger in person...you are likely 6'. I measured mine at 6'2" and antenna at 6'6"...The bumper on front sticks out a long ways and wheel/tire on back so large, then add the wider Dana 44 axles...it is a hog in my garage.

I haven't tried to get it in my garage yet but that's where the lift is to take the top off so I'm going to have to make it work . And yes I'm 6'1 and it's still just a little over my head
