    WILD WILD WEST : The 2013 JK-Experience [2 Part Series]

    I am so excited to see the rest of the Experience! The Midwest is where I call home, so a lot of this sure brings back some memories of the scenery. Sent from my SCH-I535 using WAYALIFE mobile app

    Rough Country lift

    Let me start by stating a few things before I ask my question. I currently have 35s with some form of budget boost kift (approximately 2-2.5", unsure exactly as it was on the Jeep when I bought it). Unfortunately, the 35s try their best to rip my fenders off, especially after I added 1.5"...

    True cost to join the JK-X?

    Hypothetically, how much would it cost to take a stock Rubicon and gear it up to be ready for a JK-Experience trip? I'm talking everything from the build-up of the Jeep itself, as well as all the required extra gear, parts, etc. Could it be done with $15k into the Jeep? Another $5k for all...

    Floor Mats

    So, my used '08 didn't come with any floor mats. Living in the PNW where it always seems to be raining, this bothers me. So I am looking into some of the custom fit floor liners from Rugged Ridge, WeatherTech, Husky Liners, etc. Unfortunately, a lot of the comments seem to include complaints...

    CB antenna

    OK, given all the info from this thread and some internet research, I decided to go with a 4' FireStik II, a FS quick disconnect, 18' of coax cable with the fire-ring, and the Cobra 19. I also picked up the Strike Force Zebra mount for above the rear view mirror and the Rugged Ridge antenna...

    CB antenna

    I can't imagine a spring will do much good for an antenna siting right behind the spare tire. However, a quick disconnect might be a consideration, as long as it doesn't affect the signal strength to much.

    CB antenna

    I could see the antenna being easily damage in the event of hitting something overhead, like in a parking garage, or a drive-thru, with no room for the antenna to bend out of the way.

    CB antenna

    OK, thanks for the input everyone. Now I just need to decide where to mount the antenna. Both the tire carrier mount and tail light mount seem appealing but they both seem to have drawbacks as well.

    CB antenna

    I guess another question would be what is a good length for the coax cable to have the radio mounted above the rear view mirror and have the antenna mounted on either the spare tire carrier or the tail light cover? It's a JKUR.

    CB antenna

    So, I have never owned a CB radio before. I'm looking to pick up a Cobra 19 DX IV with a Firestick 2 Antenna. I see that each antenna is rated for a different wattage, for example the 5' one is rated for 1k watts. My question is where does this wattage fit into the picture if the CB radio...

    I will have more pics after we go out Monday.

    Red Rock Crystal only thread?

    I did a search, and saw that someone else had tried to start a Red Rock Crystal only thread. Why was this color never given its own link in the sticky? I saw that someone says it belongs in the red thread that is already there. However, there are multiple orange, green, blue, etc thread, each...

    Finally pulled the trigger!

    Well, I finally pulled the trigger on my new ride. (New to me at least) Just picked up an '08 JKUR in Red Rock Crystal Pearlcoat. Bought it with a Rugged Ridge XHD bumper, XRC8 winch, 35" Toyo MTs on 17" Ultra Motorsports rims. I was told it has a 2" lift, and it does have some coil spacers...

    JEEP TRAIL OFFROAD GPS: What GPS is everyone running?

    I just checked out CoPilot, the free version, and I cannot see where it will allow me to use the .tpo files from nwjeepn.com. I do like the idea that it pre-downloads the maps for offline use though. From what I read the only thing you get with the paid version is turn-by-turn voice nav and...

    JEEP TRAIL OFFROAD GPS: What GPS is everyone running?

    GPS App for the trails Can anyone suggest a good Android GPS app for while out on the trails? Something that can read the .TPO files from sites such as nwjeepn.com. Right now I am using a free app called GPS Essentials, but it is fairly limited on options.

    Stock '07-'10 Rubicon Questions

    So, I will be in the market for on older JKUR in the coming months and I have a few questions regarding the capabilities of a stock rig. My buddies all drive modded rigs so I really have little idea what I'll be capable of stock. For instance, how effective are the stock Rubicon's rock rails...

    Just saying "Hey!" From the pacific-northwest

    Hello everyone! Just joined the forums and thought I'd make a post. I am currently living in the PugentSound area of the Pacific-Northwest and looking to buy my first Jeep in the coming months. One of my primary reasons for joining this forum is to get some advice on what to buy, before I...
