    Head Unit Replacement

    Does the aftermarket unit have a usb port on the back or does the harness have a usb connector on it? If so, I believe that you need an AX-USB-MINIB cable. I don't know if that will solve your voice to talk, and I am not certain that works without the factory unit anyway, but it should get the...

    New JK owner, can't wait to get this thing dirty!

    I completely understand. My '17 was originally sold in Michigan and the 2nd owner lived in southern Ohio. My Jeep only has 32K on the clock and is relatively rust free underneath. If you were at all interested, I would ask the dealer for a Carfax, which is going to show you how many miles were...

    New JK owner, can't wait to get this thing dirty!

    I really like Anvil...almost as much as Rhino (but I'm bias). That is clean, though. In the last few months, it seems like prices have ticked up just a bit. I suppose that it is all about budget and what you want. I came across this one, also in Iowa, which looks to be completely loaded (it...

    New JK owner, can't wait to get this thing dirty!

    If I recall, 2-door is right around 20% of the total Jeep Wrangler built annually. The 4-door is the bread and butter. As I mentioned on another post yesterday, if you are interested in a 2-door (especially a manual), you can probably make a very good deal on one. It is all about shopping around...

    I'm in a quandary

    Based on the markup that many dealers are adding to their new 'on-lot' vehicles, it would not be a stretch to say that you will get exactly what you paid or more for your Hyundai, especially being a Limited. That being said, there are deals to be had on used cars (and new) if you are willing to...

    Locking lug nut update

    You may also be able to use a GatorGrip socket, which you can find at Home Depot or Lowe's. A little more expensive, but perhaps more usable later. If the Jeep is drivable or can be made drivable, I would go over the local tire shop and explain the situation. It is their business to get these...

    Ideas for preventing bugs on the windshield

    Outside of buying racing-style tear off's :ROFLMAO:, you are going to have to clean periodically. I have found that waxing the windshield makes a big difference, as does Rain-X. In either case, the washer fluid and wipers should be able to get most of the death off while you are driving if you...

    Help me understand the different trim levels

    The best way to probably understand would be to go to the Jeep site and 'build' a few Jeeps. Granted, we have JK's and the option have changed a bit over the years, but it is basically the same logic. You have the option to pay extra for painted fenders and a color matching hard top at most...

    New Jeep to the family!

    Congrats to your daughter. It is likely the same thing people think when they drive up my street. There are 12 houses on my street and 7 Jeeps (3 JK's, 1 JL, and 3 TJ's). We have our own Jamboree going up here!

    Rust maintenance.

    POR15 makes a variety of really good products for rust prevention and underbody sealing. I think a good weekend's worth of time doing it right and rust would be the least of your problems in the future. https://por15.com/

    I saw those clear panels also. I don't think that is for me. I may see if there is a better storage solution or make my own for the rear.

    Sunrider top reviews/opinions

    Roger that on the roof rack. I did not think about that. I was actually hoping that someone made something that was removable, lighter, and more easily storable than the factory panels. I don't mind storing in the back, I just want something that fits back there easily.

    JK Antenna Replacements

    If you have any local Jeep clubs or Facebook groups, you might pop on and ask if anyone has one they want to part with. At the very least, let you borrow to check the reception. You may get one for cheap or for free, as most folks don't keep these things when they change them out.

    JK Antenna Replacements

    I have a Rydonair on both my Jeep and my F-150. I have had zero degradation in the signal or clarity. I wish I had a solution for you. Have you tried going back to a stock antenna to compare?

    First rain in my 2017...lake forming in the passenger side footwell

    Thanks. I looked over that this morning and didn't really feel like my leak was represented. Water is coming of the the top, entering the door and flowing down to the lower door trim and then over to the carpet. I remember in my CJ having to bend the window frame in just slightly to make the get...

    First rain in my 2017...lake forming in the passenger side footwell

    I know there are other posts about leaking. Heck, if you have a Jeep and it doesn't leak...do you really have a Jeep? That notion aside, it is leaking pretty good from underneath the door. The door seals look good and it is a low mileage 2017. Any ideas on where to start with a fix?

    Got a new to me Rubi

    Congrats! Just got my 2017 about a month ago (replacing a 2005 TJUR). Jealous you have a manual, but my Jeep checked all the boxes except that one and I am actually enjoying the automatic...to me honest.

    Anyone find switches that fit here?

    Quadratec sells a switch panel that goes in that spot (07-10 JK), but you are stuck with the switches it gives you. Might be a way to start the process though. https://bit.ly/3KBA60x Also, you may want to reach out to this guy. He 3D prints pods for that area. He may be able to work with you to...
