Yeah, the storage area inside the rack measures about 4.5' x 4.5'. I have a Reese cargo bag that measures 37x30x16 that fits nicely if I need to carry a few bags. This one is considered weather "resistant" and was only $30. The waterproof version is close to $100. With the panels off the front...

There's no name=plate or stamp anywhere? It doesn't look familiar to me. I've had the Smittybuilt Defender rack for nearly as long as I've had my Jeep and I wouldn't have it any other way. Tops come of and into the padded back and up to the rack. I have a couple large dogs, so the rack carries...

Yeah, but you're a moderator/staff member, so you have the "box o' prizes" at your disposal....;)

Here it is: There are 6 of them that hold the hardtop down to the edges of the bed. The torx screws go through the bed and into these to hold the top down.

Does part of it rotate? I thought it might be the spacer block on the freedom panel's rear edge. Although it looks a little different than my 2014.

The adhesive is not good, though. I still have mine, but once the first one popped off, I used Gorilla 2-sided tape after cleaning everything up. You said tiny, so I was thinking you added this to the dash...

Sorry. Maybe they changed owners or something. Friend of mine took his there after he tore up his rear end in Uwharrie and said they did a good job. That was several years ago, so...

Might want to drive up to Greensboro and let the guys at Outlaw Offroad take a look at it. I've heard they're one of the best shops in NC.

You guys may be surprised how much you can get for a well-cared for special edition or themed Jeep. Check out this 2006 Sport Golden Eagle that went for $14,600 at auction just a couple days ago. Nothing special about it except it's a Golden Eagle. No upgrades, aftermarket adds, etc. Pretty...

I replaced the stock on my 2014 with these and couldn't be happier: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074T7JS1L/?tag=jkforum-20 Then replaced the fogs with these and visibility got even better: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015X0WIM4/?tag=jkforum-20 Both sets plug and play- no...

No, the example I posted are JL part numbers, but it was to show the difference between the various springs available based on Rubi model. Again, as you stated, the last 2 numbers being the most important as they depict the spring rate, or compression.

The reason I posed the question is this: my 2.5" lift has an actual lift of 2" after I've added after-market steel bumpers each weighing it at 80lbs+. Shocks are less than 6 years old and were purchased to match the lift height. Theoretically, if I were to replace my springs with a set of Rubi...

So, let me ask this hypothetical question..... could I find a set of Rubi springs and install them without having to make any other changes to my suspension? I have a 2.5" lift and when I put new shocks on I ordered the proper length for the lift.

You don't need new springs. The Rubi comes off the assembly line with better springs than the Sport and Sahara. I don't have a Rubi, but I've been told the springs are a touch taller and stronger. Just remember that any lift more than 2.5" will require new adjustable control arms, drive shaft...

I like those wheels. Unique- that's not a common look- which is very cool. On a side note, your JKU looks like the stance has a rake back to front. Should you decide to add aftermarket bumpers, you're going to add 80--100 lbs of steel to either or both ends and it may squat a little more. You...

I'd like to see a side shot of the whole Jeep with those wheels, but from what I see, I'm kinda diggin' that look. I works with the black trim and fenders you have and it is a utilitarian/military look. And I'm running 12.5" KO2s on mine (no spacers) and couldn't be happier.

In 1975 after I'd returned from my first deployment to SE Asia, I was at a friend's house tinkering with my 1974 Chevy step-side short bed. I kept it in storage for about 5 months and we were changing fluids, drinking beer, cleaning plugs, drinking beer, checking tire pressure, drinking beer...

Might want to get a copy of that recording.... just in case.

Most of those places are franchised, so you may be in for a fight with the franchisee. With respect to the oil filter thing.... some 40 years ago I had my car in the shop for a couple things and I asked them to change the oil while they were under the hood. When they pulled the old filter, the...

I've used the Weathertech bug shields on 3 Tahoes, an Expedition and 2 Jeeps over the past 30 years. They do help with the bugs, but nothing is going to redirect the rocks and stones that do the most damage. I've removed the one on my Jeep about a year ago as it was getting pretty old and it...
