We respectfully ask... We know the Dynatrac CODEX Jeep Gladiator is pretty different. We are listening to everyone's comments, and we value the input. But...

What a Great Day! First thing in the morning we started out great, and kept going up from there. Tona and I had a terrific time with Eddie and Cindy. Here's a pic of me standing in the rain figuring out how I'm going to follow Cindys line.

There are a couple of subtle differences in removing the doors on a Jeep Wrangler JL compared to the JK. Tony Carvallo was the Jeep product planner at FCA, and is now an engineer at Dynatrac. We have featured him in a series of videos that give information that Jeepers will appreciate knowing...

If you've managed to run the battery dead in your Jeep Wrangler JL already (like we have), you may have discovered a little nuisance: You can't shift the automatic transmission shifter out of Park if the battery is dead. This is handy if the Jeep isn't parked in the perfect position to hook up...

When we built CODE1, we hastily cut the muffler off in order to get access to the suspension and bumper bolts. After driving the Jeep in and out of the shop during the build, we found that we liked the sound of the Jeep Wrangler JL with the muffler removed. It has a nice performance sound...

The JL fender flares won't fit on a JK (at least not without custom work). However, MOPAR offers High Top Fender Flares for the JL. The idea is the same...move the opening up to fit larger tires without as much trimming. We run these MOPAR flares on our Commando Green JK.

Since we've had the opportunity to fit 35s, 37s and even 42 inch tall tires on a Jeep JL, we thought we'd pass along what we found as far where you may have to trim the fender flares. Much of this info came from our very own Tony Carvallo who was the program manager on the JL when he worked at...

The JL is the first Jeep Wrangler to come with a keyless push button start. We noticed that some people are running into a situation where the system doesn't reconize the keyfob and the vehicle won't start. There's an easy way to fix this, demonstrated in this short video: If you have...

If you own a Jeep Wrangler JL, you may be annoyed by Engine Auto Start Stop System, also referred to as ESS. Sure, you can press the button on the dash to defeat it every time you start the engine, but we found a way to disable the system so you simply don't have to deal with it. Best of all...

Great questions. When we engineered the 1550LT wheelends for the Dynatrac ProRock XD60, we wanted to have the highest tie rod position without requiring an additional hi-steer kit or the need to notch the frame for clearance. The tie rod centerline is 2.4 inches above the axle centerline...

I'm bummed you had a problem. I went to the shop and looked at an axle being assembled. I do not recall this happening before, so I would like to figure out why yours is an issue. Here are a couple of pics of a front LCA bracket on an Elite XD60 in the shop. I can't tell from your photo what is...

After a great EJS 2018, we're almost done getting caught up, and had a chance to sort through some of our pics from taking CODE1 out on the trails in Moab. As we go through more (we literally took thousands of photos that week) we'll share them with everyone. We'd also love to see any of your...

We're going to have the CODE1 JL at Moab to really break it in and have some fun on the trails during Easter Jeep Safari this month. Be sure to keep an eye out and see the first heavily modified, and ONLY two-door JL on the planet up close. See you all there!

As promised, some pics of us taking the Dynatrac CODE1 JL out for its maiden off-road test.

And now we’re done! The Dynatrac CODE1 Jeep Wrangler JL is complete! We will be heading out to the desert soon to do some off roading with it. Let us know what you think of the way it turned out! We had to trim the MOPAR flares a little and a small amount of metal while checking our tire...

UPDATE 01-19-18 Our updates on this thread are a day or two behind, but we are right now in the last planned day, and we’re hoping to go wheeling tomorrow. We’ll see if we make that deadline or if we have to push it back a day. Either way, we are definitely in the final stretch! With the EVO...

The past couple of days have been very busy on the CODE1 build at Dynatrac. With the JL pretty well disassembled, we could start mocking up new parts. The back seat and back doors have been removed, and they won’t be coming back. We’re converting this into a long-wheelbase 2-door: an LJL if...

We are all pretty excited about the 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL starting to hit showroom floors. We actually spent a week hanging out in the Detroit area waiting for ours to arrive to a local dealer, but we’re getting a little ahead of ourselves in this build thread. Tony Carvallo, who now works for...

Here are a few pics from our Dynatrac trail ride yesterday on Flat Iron Mesa!

What kind of Dynatrac equipped fun are you bringing to Moab this week? What trails are you looking forward to hitting?
