    Jku Engine Swap options

    Being a supercharger typically the power comes in toward the lower end as opposed to a turbo which come in on the higher end. The 3.6 does not start making torque or HP until the upper RPM. The Ripp will definitely get you off the line faster and the power will be in the lower end of the RPM...

    Jku Engine Swap options

    After looking into this myself there are very few options I thought were bullet proof and would be long lasting. I looked at doing a Ripp supercharger. However I am kind of a naturally aspirated fan. I looked at doing the 5.7 Hemi with my 6 speed manual and that was what I liked the most. The...

    2004 Grand Cherokee Laredo (WJ)

    Well welcome to the Grand Cherokee. I have a 2004 and I have touched every bolt nut screw on that thing. I have the infamous 4.7 liter V8 that has been reliable as can be. I am wrestling with electric just like you are. Once you replace the Crap MOPAR wiring it works well. I rebuilt the 247...

    Bike racks

    DaveinDenver is right it rides low. I have a lift on 37 inch tires so it rides ok for me. I should have mentioned that. Either way I really like the the 1uo racks

    Lexus GX 460 & 470 owner's thread

    Just bought this a few months ago 2013 Gx 460 with 30K miles. This is a daily driver and my wife's vehicle. So far we threw some new tires on it due to the ones on the vehicle were the originals and had dry rot. I put on Nitto Ridge Grapplers. I am very happy with the ride. The noise is on par...

    I can't deicide which tire!!

    Good thread. I have had my BFG KM2 for about 20K on them still more than half the tread. I live in Florida and do great in the rain in my opinion. The GY MTR I think are on back order again. They are a pain to get. For some reason they cannot keep up with demand. Next tires probably Toyo...

    Rock Krawler Suspension

    Been running a 3.5 xfactor for 30k. Great lift. I just installed on my brothers JK the 1.5 Flex kit. He is running flat fenders and 35's . Great ride and very capable. Someone mentioned sag and I have had none. However I cannot knock an AEV lift. Just depends what you want to do with your rig...

    Jeep unlimited lift kits.... What did you do?

    i run the 3.5 x factor Rock Krawler lift. Overkill for what I am doing. If I were to do it again I would go for the Rock Krawler 2.5 MAX travel kit. It has four lower adjustable arms so you can adjust your caster and keep your drive shaft angles safe. The lower control arms are solid and give...

    Winch help and decision

    I know it! Some people swear by the SmittyBuilt and the new ones are much improved! I am not saying it is a bad winch, I have some more money to spend so I am trying to upgrade a little bit if I can. It may turn out I can get a Smittybuilt for less price and get the same reliability. But when I...

    Winch help and decision

    I know a few folks down here in Florida that have had problems due to the wet climate with them. Motors have been rusting and freezing. Trying to spend a little more money to get a little more winch. However It may turn out that it is not worth it.

    Winch help and decision

    I have been researching winches for a little while. I am trying to get a reliable winch on a 800 isn budget. I drive a 13 Wranger Rubicon 4dr with a RK lift Rock Hard Rear bumper/ Rock Rails and Front bumper. I have been looking at the WARN VR10, Ramsey 9.5 REP, and the Superwinch Talon 9.5...
