    Time for a new build - Ecodiesel Gladiator Sport

    Since I sold my JKUR, I tried spec'ing a gladiator with the max tow package, so I could consolidate down to 1 vehicle. I have a boat that weighs 7000#. I spec'd a sport with Max Tow, manual windows and hardtop (Basically the only options). I was told it would be 16 weeks for the build or longer...

    Better late than never 2005 LJ build.

    I have nothing useful to add except that I am jealous of you and your LJ. I passed up 2 Lj's in years past and bought a JKU Rubicon. I sold the JKU to my son last month and went on the hunt for an LJ. Ha Ha Ha. Yeah, NO. Nothing to be had for under $20 K. So I bought a JK 2 door instead. I...

    Anyone replace a JK key?

    I have no experience with the JScan, however I have bought keyfobs from amazon for both of my JK's. I then had to have them programmed by a locksmith. I had them cut the key and program it for about $65. He hooked up his laptop to the ALDL connector and it took about 5 minutes. All told less...

    Ford E-series va with 285 tires, does anyone run the stock 16" rim (for instance 285/75/16), or is there a good reason to move to a 17" or larger rim?

    Thanks for posting your picture, FROADER. That is the same van I have along with the same wheels and I had the same question about that tire size. I was thinking of keeping the stock aluminum wheels and running the BFG. Good to hear that they work. Again, thanks for your information.

    what is this for? some kind of tuner portal? 2007 JKUR.

    Ok. i wondered that. I use to have one on a car back in 1992. I figured they wouldnt have used these on a newer car. anyhow, its got some kind of chip that bridges the terminals so I am assuming it is inert or now useless. Ill pull it out. thanks for the second opinion.

    what is this for? some kind of tuner portal? 2007 JKUR.

    Hey folks. I bought this 2007 JKUR a few months ago and have wondered what this was for. It looks like some kind of tuner hookup? It goes through the bulkhead to the fuse box. Its definitely aftermarket, just not sure what it is. I ask because if its extraneous, then im going to remove it while...

    thanks etech, thats exactly what i needed to know. i wasnt critisizing the use of spacers on the wheels. i was just trying to avoid the extra cost of using them. thanks again for the info on the wheels. your info helps me and i know it helps others in their decisions.

    CUCV M-1009 Baja Chase/ pit support and Camping Project.

    question on wheels i see that you are using cadillac wheels on your cucv. did you have to use spacers to get the wheels to sit farther outboard? i have wanted to run the exact same wheel on my 91 burban, but i was afraid the backspacing on those newer wheels would set them to far inboard in the...
