    Odd tag left on new Rubicon HR

    This was still attached to the transfer case (?) with a rubber band. I'm not really disturbed by the fact it was left on there, but the "mediocre face" and "sad face" emoticons are not inspiring confidence. Anyone know what's up with this?

    Brightest Headlights?

    Just got a 2016 Willys two weeks ago, and this time went with the JW Speaker Evolution J over the Trucklights. I got the $475 deal but from a different vendor than the one already mentioned. You have to call them for the deal, so it sounds like a bunch of vendors are wild westing these things...

    Heated Truck Lites

    25 degrees and blowing snow on a 30 minute drive at 35-40mph. Before leaving, Jeep was in a parking garage and sat for three hours in the mid 20s degree air. Checking the lamps after arriving home, the top half is quite warm, bottom half is not. Probably radiant heat helped clear the lower lens...

    Headlight upgrade

    So today I finally adjusted them, and it does help quite a bit. Reason being the factory alignment is of course too high for these, but mainly because (at least on mine) the passenger factory light alignment was much higher than the driver's side light. I guess that's old school to compensate...

    Spare Tire Bump Stops - Cheap Solve

    I know there are a million ways to fix the gap between the spare and factory bump stops not meeting up with the tire after installing aftermarket wheels on the factory carrier, but here is my solution for under $3 at Lowe's. After replacing the rear tailgate after a self-inflicted wound (dang...

    Tailgate replacement: Mopar VS no-name part

    Yesterday while backing up, I hit a concrete light post base with the spare tire and bent the outer sheet metal of the tailgate behind the carrier. The gate shuts just fine, but the carrier/spare now sits a little crooked :crazyeyes: I'm trying to decide between using the Mopar tailgate...

    How Dirty Has Your Jeep Been

    Back in my first JK in 2011. Cleaning up after mud has kept me out of it since. It was rancid, smelly mud, and likely contaminated by nearby oil wells. It was 104 degrees that day. Also got violently ill from the Mexican dinner afterward, so it all resides in the same place in my mind.

    Jeep JK Transfer Case Shift Linkage Bushings

    I've wondered about the plastic connector on the transfer case shifter that people report breaks and can leave you stuck in 4L. Do you that that's engineered to keep you from forcing the lever and breaking something more expensive? It always struck me as odd that they would intentionally use a...

    Wave from Texas

    Been putting off posting here, but "howdy", finally. My 2014 Anvil Rubi is my 7th Wrangler and 5th JK. First mod was the wheels. I keep wanting to add more mods, but I have a firearms-buying habit I can't break. :/
