    Recommendations on suspension modifications on a 2020 Ram 2500 Diesel w/popup camper (1300lbs)

    If you have airlift bags, I would call them and have them send you new lines and fitting. I had a leak with mine on one side, emailed air left and the sent out free replacement lines and fittings. About 20 min to replace, no lift needed, and no leaks since.

    New JL - Rubi vs Sport for basic Overland travel

    I have a 16' JKU Sport with auto, 3.73 gears, the factory limited slip, and factory takeoff BFG KM's (32"). In California southwest desert I can go 85% of the places where my buddies go with their locked Jeeps and FJ's on 35's. For what you are talking about I believe you will be fine with a...

    Since I loved my last suspension setup, going to do pretty much the same again! BUT. with some updates

    I believe that is the springs for the Recon edition JKU (68196006AA; 68024461AA). It provides about a 1/2” lift over the 19/60’s.

    Dilemma : Keep Modded XJ or Get JK Rubicon

    I had the same kind of dilemma back in October when I bought my JKU Sport. I had a Jeep Commander QDII with lift Hemi, 100k miles, set up they way I liked it and loved it. But I had little things pop up here and there. I asked myself if I would be comfortable taking my family on a 2000 mile...

    My Jeep Warranty Nightmare

    As a former ASE Master tech at a non dealership shop I learned most dealerships just swap out parts from the parts department and hope for a fix. There are very few Master techs left at dealerships these days. We used to work on the new cars for the dealerships when they could not fix a problem...

    Commander/GrandCherokee WK honest reviews

    I have a 06' Commander Limited w/quadra drive II. Overall it is a great vehicle but for interior space not so much. They are not much longer than a Grand Cherokee but with an extra seat so leg room is decreased in the second row and almost non existent in the third row. I have never had a...

    Calling all Chevy square body fans, calling all Chevy square body fans

    I remember in the 80's and 90's Regan and Busch would fly into the base at MCAS El Toro and the secret service would be driving those Suburbans. The would call them the "War Wagons" I was always in envy as the opened the back and had a cache of weapons.

    Skool me: Re-powering a Trooper in CA.

    You could do it but it would not be cost effective. You would need the all the above plus evap, computer, system from the donor vehicle which has to be the same year or newer. Also from past experiences with referees each one has a different interpitation of the C.A.R.B. rules.

    1968 Chevy K10 SWB Overlander

    I just found this thread and went through it all. Awesome truck. The modes you have done so far are great. Keep the spirt but make it more usable. Makes me really regret getting ride of my 78' K5. I have been slowly looking for a 70-80 old simple K series. This is making me want to put a...

    Thinking About A Jeep Commander Who Has One?

    I have a 06' Commander with the 5.7, quadra drive, 2" budget lift and 265/70/17 a Terra Grapplers. Compared to a Tahoe it is not as roomy but it fits my family of 5 (3 teenagers) well. The 3rd row is not for long trips and when up there is no room behind it except for a backpack. Off-road it...
