    Front Axle Seal question

    Is the gap between the axle housing and "seal" supposed to be there? D30 (don't make fun) What's the purpose of that black plastic? Was replacing rotors and noticed it. Looks strange. Thanks

    Sport vs Sahara

    I have a 2015 JKU Sport. The neighbor just brought home a 2014 JKU Sahara which he let me drive. I would guess he has tow package with the 3.73s. The Sahara is way tighter on handling than my Sport ever was, even off the lot. I have an EVO level on mine now. What are the differences in the...

    Damn kids

    So my 15 yo daughter goes wheeling with her boyfriend last weekend at Uwharrie, NC. She gets home and promptly informs my wife that I should not be allowed to ever go there. There's so many built Jeeps there that I would be jealous and never stop modding my own. :naw: Hoping Santa is extra...

    Cruise control

    I have a stock 2015 unlimited sport w/ auto. First long road trip was this weekend. Was using cruise control and it disengaged twice on its own. Both times was on the initial ascent at the start of a bridge/overpass. Seemed like it turned off as trans was changing gears. Is this common for this...

    Critique a potential build

    Currently have a stock 2015 Sport S Unlimited with auto, 255/75/17s, and 3.21. Got googly eyed about new ride and put absolutely zero thought into the gearing when I bought it. It is my DD and I commute about 50 miles round trip. Light weekend wheeling in NC. What I would like to do for now...

    Greetings from Cary, NC

    Grew up off-roading in the Glendale, AZ and Las Vegas area. Dad had an early 70s LandCruiser and then a couple CJ-5s, none of which were anywhere near stock. Raced with him in the Mint 400 buggy class in the mid-80s and my DD was a Class 5 pre-runner I built from the ground up. First car was...
