    ALL ELECTRIC Jeep Recon... Thoughts??

    That's the mach-e. The normal mustang is refreshed for 2024 and will still have a V8, Jim Farley said the mach-e allows them to keep making the V8. I'd imagine that will kill whatever Dodge does after they get rid of the Hemi, if they go full ev or even just with the straight 6's.

    ALL ELECTRIC Jeep Recon... Thoughts??

    Ford is at least acknowledging that some models don't lend themselves to easily being electrified (the Mustang, Bronco, Super Duty), the CEO even said "There's plenty of places to drive a Mustang that aren't California". So hopefully Ford keeps the gas Bronco going to force Jeep to keep the...

    Anyone going to Jeeps on the Mountain?

    Any Wayalife members going to JOTM at Sundown Ski resort in Dubuque? More like Jeeps on the mild hill, but they have some off-roading and bourbon tasting, so good enough for me. https://www.sundownmtn.com/event/jeeps-on-the-mountain/

    Moab trip pics!

    Took my first trip to Moab a couple weeks ago and it was a dream trip. Hired Robert Mick from Dan Mick's Jeep Tours to guide me on Fins and that was a great experience in itself, since he was there from the start of wheeling in Moab. Learned so much. Ran the north loop with him, and then ran the...

    VIDEO : Improve Your JL or JT Headlights for Cheap by Installing LED Bulbs

    Beamtech seems to make good LEDs. When I had my Renegade, I swapped the stock bulbs for the Beamtech ones and the light was great, took some work at first to get the chips oriented right but after that they were completely reliable with no errors for the 3 years I ran it till trading it in for...

    OE Rock rail clearance

    I noticed that my passenger side rock rail is noticeably closer at the back end to the rocker panel compared to the driver's side on my JLU. I'm concerned that it wouldn't take much of a hit to push it into the rocker panel. I tried to loosen it up and move it away, but as soon as I tighten the...

    Winch for Moab trip?

    Thanks for the advice everyone! Ended up getting a rubicon sway bar with an evo disconnect first. I was afraid of having to switch out the bumper/suspension for the winch right before a trip given how hard parts are to get these days in case something got messed up, plus don't have the time to...

    What was done to your rig this week?

    One question I have about it is if it lets you screw it in and out, does that mean it will disconnect and reconnect? Like if it's not going to work bc of suspension load or not being level, will the knob still turn normally or will it be "stuck" until you rock it?

    What was done to your rig this week?

    Put on a Rubicon sway bar with the evo manual disconnect on my Sahara. Got the idea from Eddie's video on it, so thanks for the tip! If anyone wants the motor off of it, name your price! Flex with it connected: Disconnected (notice now the front bumper is hitting the rock pile now, left it in...

    Winch for Moab trip?

    I am heading out to Moab in September, super excited to see the promised land! Taking my stock JLU Sahara. I've added 33" ATs, Rough Country diff skids, and rock rails from a Rubicon. Already have a GMRS radio and Viair air compressor too. I'm planning on mostly easy to moderate trails (hired a...

    Diff Skid Plates? Recommendations?

    I got the Rough Country ones for mine. I think they're the only ones that make one for the M200 rear. They seem to fit good and seem plenty beefy. Just didn't want to strip a drain plug on either with a rock. Otherwise I wouldn't have bothered.

    Hello from Wisconsin!

    Hi everyone, glad to be here. Been watching the Youtube channel for a few years now and thought I should join in on the fun. I just recently traded in my Renegade TH in on a JLU Sahara. The Rene was just a little fragile...every off road trip ended with a dealer trip, and lots of scrapes. So...
