It was something about the bolts in the center mounts coming loose and binding with the drag link. Sounds like people should PM their stuff more often. I do. Lol.

I took my JK to have my gears and ball joints replaced. The mechanic said the Rough Country dual steering stabilizers are a bad design and can cause a crash. Something about bolts coming loose and causing the steering to stick. Causing a potential crash. Anybody heard about this? I went back to...

I just ordered an OEM thermostat. Be here Tuesday. I’ll give an update when I install it. Thanks everybody.

I just found a ton of bad reviews on this exact thermostat. People are saying that they fail. And most say that it runs about 10 degrees hotter than OEM. That is exactly what I’m experiencing. Time to find an OEM thermostat.

I guess I’ll be pulling the thermostat off and testing it. It’s duralast brand. Not ac delco.

I elevated the front of the jeep multiple times to burp the system. I Installed an AC Delco thermostat. Not an OEM thermostat. And I’m pretty sure the thermostat is opening at a higher temp than 205. I see temps in the 220s before the temp starts to drop. I need to see if I can find the package...

I have a 2014 JKU automatic, 37s, 4:88 gears. My thermostat was stuck open. I replaced the thermostat. Flushed the system with distilled water. Used Peak OAT coolant. Burped the system. Now my average operating temp is 222-226 while driving between 50-70mph. Ambient air temp outside is 90ish...

Yeah, that mud hole is minor. I might drive through three feet of water with a sand bottom or just nasty mud for 50 yards, when we go wheelin or hunting. It’s Florida. It’s a swamp. Lol.

Check out Jeeping with Judd. Polk county Florida.

That’s some pretty hard flexing. I won’t experience that here. I really appreciate the advice and info. It’s nice to have a forum where I can reach out and get a response. My local annual event is mostly dirt trails and mud and off camber stuff.

Ouch. Mall crawler? I’ll hold back the tears. Lol. I live in Florida. I don’t rock crawl. But we have a lot of phosphate property and hills and uneven terrain. It’s flexes pretty hard in my opinion. For what we have here. I’m really close to not scrubbing the pinch welds. All the testing...

Sounds good to me. I have 2 inch bump stops on the axles. I just measured them. I’m gonna fabricate some 3 inch ones out of 3x3 steel tubing. If that doesn’t work. I’ll just go to 4 inch. Cheap and easy. Just wanted an outside opinion. Thank you. And…. I’m gonna trim the pinch seams some more...

I have a 2014 JKU with a 2.5 inch pro comp lift. 37s. I had to cut the front side of the rear pinch seam. I have flat fenders. It’s still not clearing the tires as much as I would like. Minor rubbing. So I decided I need taller bump stops on the rear axle. I can fabricate them. Or buy them. Any...

I lowered it to 32 and it felt a lot better. I’ll probably go down into the 20s and try it. Thanks.

I just picked up a 2014 wrangler 4 door. It has toyo RT open county 33x12.50x20 tires. It rides rough. The pressure is set at 50 psi. Seems a little high. What pressure should I be running? Thanks.
