    Factory JK D44 Rubicon E-Locker Wiring

    I decided to go ahead and post a diagram of how I wired my locker switches. The internal switch diagram shows which terminals are connected to which light on the switches that I purchased online. Do a web search on 4x4 locker switches. I connected so that the bottom light illuminates "Front...

    Building of Grandma & Grandpas Toy

    continued When the load on the roof rack compressed the rear springs more than I liked I used the write up on this forum to install air-bags. Problem solved. Smittybuilt seat covers with multiple pouches were added to provide storage for various items that wouldn't fit in the glove compartment...

    Building of Grandma & Grandpas Toy

    continued The next mod was to add a roof top rack for hauling camping gear for taking our youngest grandkids jeep camping. I ordered the inexpensive rack online and used the supplied hardware that was intended for use with SUV roof rails and reversed it to fasten to the roof using Rubber...

    Building of Grandma & Grandpas Toy

    I've really gotten a lot of great information from this forum and have even posted some info about some of my mods. However I've not done a build thread, so here goes. We bought our 2010 JKUS in March of 2010 with the auto trans and 3.73 gears. I'm retired and 72 years old. We have other...

    Bending axles question

    Have you bent yours? If so did you upgrade or what? I see you are from Reno. The axles I got came from Reno and were modified at High Rollin Customs in Sparks. Do you know of that shop?

    Bending axles question

    Thanks for the great replies regarding my set up. Regarding my question "what have people been doing when they bend their axle?" I was also wondering if people are bending their axles jumping their JKs or can they get bent or broken just rock crawling?

    Bending axles question

    I have a 2010 JKU Sport and recently swapped in 2014 Rubi axles (w/5.13 gears, C gussets, RCV & G2 shafts and RuffStuff covers) that I purchased from another forum member. I've now upgraded to 315x75x16 tires that actually measure 34" from the 285x75x16s I was running. On this forum there is a...

    Jeep JK Transfer Case Shift Linkage Bushings

    I've never broken mine on my 2010 JKU and I tried the brass bushing recommended on another JK forum and it didn't fit. I purchased spares just in case and cut a hole in the console (while I had it out) so if the part does fail I can get to it without having to remove the console. Anyone...

    Rear bumper chop

    Chopped both ends to match I agree that our JKs look great without a rear bumper. With the EVO D ring mount ends they look even better. However, with my 315x75x16 tires I wanted to chop the rear bumper instead to better support my full size spare. I didn't want to have to spend $800 on a new...

    unit bearings OK to reuse

    I swapped rubi axles with 5.13 gears into my 2010 JKU and want to know if the unit bearings I pulled out of my D30 will be OK to reuse. I had to use a puller to get them out of the D30 as they wouldn't budge without one. They didn't come apart when I pulled them and I want to know if they are...

    Auto trans fluid change

    I've checked the write-ups and don't see one on changing the 4 speed automatic transmission fluid. Am I missing something or is this something better left to the dealer? My 2010 has just turned over 33K miles and I would like to do the fluid change myself unless it's not advised.

    35" tire bumpstop

    I just installed 35" tires on my 2010 JKU Sport and came up with the following solution to the "extended bump stop" issue with the stock tire carrier. I got two Hillman 1 5/8x1 5/16x1" #5 rubber stoppers from Lowes. They fit perfectly in the holes in the stock bump stop and push in to be just...

    Superchip tuner & auto trans cooler

    I have a 2010 JKU sport automatic that I've just installed rubi axles in with 5.13 gears. I've increased the tire size to 315x75x16 and chopped the fenders with a leveling lift. I used the superchips tuner to set everything correctly for this combination. I'm also running the 87 octane tune...
