    Fenders for JKU

    Steel fenders on JKs seem to be popular on mall crawlers as they do look nice, but as others have said they are not as functional on rigs that actually go wheeling. A significant hit will cause damage to the body. I think a good compromise is MCE flat fenders. Flexible and durable plastic, but...

    Effing freedom top leak

    I've scoured the internet trying to figure out a solution to the leak in the center of my freedom top panels right at the footman loop, but nothing has worked so far. Made sure the panels are installed correctly with the seals flat, cleaned and greased seals, added weather stripping, nothing has...

    Switch wired to only come on with ignition

    Want to have a set of fog lights that are wired to only come on with the key turned on. Have a bad habit of leaving get my fogs on, but like them on during the day as running lights. Anyone know what extra slot in the fuse box will work for this? Going to use connectors to tap into that spot...

    3.5 backspacing with a stock 255 tire?

    Wondering if I would have any issues running a 3.5 backspaced steelie rim with my stock 255s. Love the look of a wide stance and a black steel rim. Eventually plan on going to a 35" tire, but want to go to a wider stance and steel rims now and then save up for the 35s. My only hesitation is that...

    Modded jeep stock height/ tire size

    EVO rockskins in place of sliders? I know this would not be the ideal setup for hardcore wheeling, but until I can afford EVO sliders would the steel EVO rockskins provide a reasonable amount of protection on mellower trails? Love the look of them, extra body protection and the price is not bad...

    Modded jeep stock height/ tire size

    I'm sure this will change, but at the moment I am happy with the performance of my stock height jeep. Having two jeeps in the past I have learned my lesson about getting a cheap lift, as well as the true expenses that come with lifting a jeep. I am a pretty hardcore mountain biker and so the...

    Stock fender clearance with 255 tires

    Just bought a jku with arb front and rear bumpers and a winch up front. Want to figure out how much sag I have from the bumpers. Anyone have a sport or Sahara with stock bumpers and with 255 tires that can measure the distance between the fender and tire front and rear? Thanks! Sent from my...

    As the title says I have a JKU (3.8) that has had some weird idling issues, it occasionally gets stuck at around 2k rpm and then drops again to idle when I am in neutral (6 speed manual). Anyone else have this issue? I have had idling issues with my old tj, but it ened up just being a loose...

    Just bought a Jeep with 90k on it, what should I check/ replace?

    As the title says, just bought a 2008 Sahara JKU with around 90k on it. Super clean for the mileage, but want to know your opinion on what I should check, replace, etc. Already replaced the clutch, transmission fluid and changed the oil. Plan on changing the differential fluid and spark plugs...
