    Issue with Rancho warranty/Guarantees?

    Been a while since Ive posted here so hello to everyone again. Has anyone had any issue with rancho’s warranty? I bought the 2 inch progressive kit with 9000 shocks and decided I don’t really like any of it. I called warranty asking to return the kit or even just the shocks based on their 90 day...

    Replacing JK tailgate hinges?

    Hey guys, been a while but I’m back with more questions. Going over moderate bumps causes my tailgate hinge pins to shift in their respective hinges, causing a loud bang/rattle under the weight of even the stock spare tire. I know this because when I lift up on the spare I can actually see the...

    Telegraph Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram

    To participate in the jeep dealership reviews, I would like to add my experiences in southeast Michigan. For anyone in the Detroit metro area, I would NOT recommend the above mentioned dealer. Back in 2014 I developed the death wobble in my 2010 2-door. As cosigners to the Jeep, my grandparents...

    Rust issues for gas tank skid?

    Has anyone had any rusting issues with their gas tank skids? My jeep was up on the lift the other day and while I try my best to pressure wash as much mud off as possible, I found there to be a nice layer between the tank and the skid. I'm sure it's been there for a very long time as well, and...

    WIN a JK SPORT CAGE from Rock Hard 4x4!!

    Years ago I found project-JK in high school while I still had my XJ. The videos got me hooked and I was dying for a wrangler. Eventually stumbled my way over to the forum and found a butt load of awesome knowledge but didn't join until I bought my JK. I've seen the other forums but none of them...

    Relocating winch control box

    Here are 2 shots of the setup. The bumper consists of a slab of 1/4 inch steel bent for 1 inch of overlay at the top and 2 on bottom. I reused the factory tow hooks until such time I can buy D ring mounts. The bumper is spaced out 1 inch from the frame, and the winch plate was placed as far...

    Relocating winch control box

    Has anyone relocated there winch control boxes to under the hood somewhere? If so, did you make up something on your own or did you buy some sort of kit? I currently have mine mounted on the M8000 in the standard position and I don't like it because it makes contact with the bottom of the grill.

    Warn 9.0rc?

    Any thoughts on this winch? I have a light ass 2 door and the only weight I plan to add is sliders, bumper with stinger, and 35" trail grapplers with slabs. For now it will have to go between the frame rails, and I'm trying to keep it relatively "cheap" without sacrificing quality. Other...

    What size measures closest to 35?

    If I were to want, say, a 35 inch trail grappler, and want it to be a true 35 (or as close as possible to) inches, would this be the 315/70/17? Or how does this work?

    2 door seat won't fold forward

    I turned my seat around to watch my girlfriends volleyball game from the trunk the other day and then returned it to normal after the game. Now the back rest will fold down but the seat will not unlatch and roll forward like it's supposed to. All the latches are lined up correctly and nothing is...

    Steering wheel off center

    I was really tired when this happened... I was making a left turn at a light and at the end of the turn my hand slipped off the wheel. My front passenger tire hit the curb going about 15-20mph at probably a 35 degree angle from the curb, so it hit pretty hard. Now my steering wheel has to be...

    Dealer can't resolve issues

    So I have the death wobble, and after going through everything on the checklist, I couldn't solve the problem. So I took the jk to the dealer to let them diagnose it. Of course, the first thing they said was "it's the steering stabilizer." I laughed at them in my head, but I replaced it anyway...

    No rear fenders on a 2 door?

    So I want to run my 35's on my 2 door with bushwhacker flats up front and nothing in the back. I like the way the 4 doors look with EVO'S fender less rear corners but they told me they don't make those for a 2 door. So is anyone running without rear fenders on a 2 door? How do you like it...

    35's or no?

    So there have been a few posts similar to mine, but I wanted to start a thread unique to my situation. I want to get 35 inch tires. BUT, it will be a while (up to a year) before I have the chance to regear. I need new tires really soon, but I don't feel it's cost effective to buy a set of 32s...

    Red Rock 4x4 wheel spacers

    Does anyone here know anything about these? I found them on www.extremeterrain.com and they look very similar to spidertrax spacers, except they're a different color. The price is significantly cheaper, which is the most worrisome factor here. It kinda leads me to believe they're not as high...
