i couldnt believe it i have a bad u joint in front drive shaft .
its one piece gotta buy the whole drive shaft . thier price is $878.00 not including labor . im covered but good thing . :shock: quadratec has the same drive shaft part number for 599 i think
MOPAR 52853317AC $ 278.00 dollar difference :thinking: ( dealers are way over pricing parts )
i dont understand why they make it so you cant change the u joint ? unless its just they want to hose you. But 3000 for a front bumper lol :naw:

I saw a 47K Dragon Edition at the dealership when I was shopping around. I threw up in my mouth a little...seriously.

It's expensive as hell to make it to the mall.
I live in Vegas near a Jeep dealer and they sell the S#*t out of these kits every week!
The "nerf bars" caught my eye, $529.00 and you can be trading paint at KOH and Vegas to Reno, :cheesy: "nerfing" buggies!

10, 000 to 14, 000 price difference between sport and rubi every where I was looked trying to find my new jeep. Hence why I drive a sport haha

The dealer I bought my 13 from sells half their JKs modded like this. They inflate the price a lot (no where near this extent) but that's how they end up haggling. To someone who doesn't know better, they offer to knock 4k off that price and they think they got a hell of a deal. Let's face it there are a lot of people with money out there that don't know better and just want it that way when they pick it up.
And nitrogen is my favorite. I will say in smaller tires it does help. The pure nitrogen does expand/contract less than straight air, yes the 20% other stuff matters. On my old track cars I ran nitrogen and the pressures changed a lot less on the track due to heat build up. But there's also not much "air" volume in them. Now on my JK with 35s it doesn't do crap. Discount tire refills mine every time I go in for rotation because they know I wheel it. I've told them several times not to but they said that is their policy, their customer service is awesome!!! Anyway, this winter it's been very cold in MI. When I go out in the morning and it's near 0 my pressures are reading 24ish PSI. On my 15 mile drive to work they get up to 29 where I run them. So much for nitrogen helping.

I looked at a couple Rubis up in orange county at a dealer and they had nitrogen listed for $150.00. They must truly believe some jeep buyers are absolute maroons!

Delete everything above "AEV Package" and it's probably a good looking Jeep.

As we were leaving, my wife pointed out a 4 door Rubi. It was all decked out too. Wish I would have noticed before we left. Would love to have seen the sticker on that one.

Of course. That setup is like the soccer mom Jeep of choice. It's got the quiet hardtop, pretty painted fenders, and cushy interior.

My local stealership likes to shove aggressive looking no-name 33"s on and charge massive coin.
I wonder if they rub... and what happens when they wear out at 10k miles? Criminal.
