My Bestop has lasted a good two years so far but I can't help but wonder how much UV damage the desert sun is doing to it.

I see used on eBay going for $40+ for 2012+.

I would just get a salvage yard replacement I think. Never really hear about starters failing on JKs like this.

I plan on getting this: https://trailseven.com/collections/jeep-head-unit-kits/products/sony-xav-ax6000-plug-play-bundle-07-17-jk-wrangler

What's your budget?

BVCP9690A. I had to RMA the first unit as soon as I got it because it wouldn't power on and of course they tried high and low to blame my Jeep.

I have a Boss unit and honestly wish I had saved for something nicer like a Sony or Alpine. When it works, it's barebones as hell. It will work if all you want is a back up camera and Google maps. Everything else blows.

Nope, everyone I have seen go that route have regretted it. The plastic flexes better than aluminum. Only good thing about the aluminum is you can theoretically repair it when it breaks. It has to do with the actual design of the JK moreso than the radiators. Too much frame flex on them. As...

On my third radiator and this has been the area where it leaked on the other two.

Carobotor is some Chinesium unit that if it breaks, you're on your own. You can't even use all of it's features unless you have a 2011+.

I've never seen anything like that before. It sounds like the opposite of smart.

I always carry my spare and a jack. I've actually used my spare in the past year as well. Rather to have and not need than need and not have. Yeah, visibility is ass but these are not efficient vehicles by any means and like many others I just installed a camera that I can view while driving.

When I was a kid, my friend and his dad did RC car racing (they had a small league that raced at the local BMX track) and I used to tag along sometimes. I was always surprised how involved it was as I figured it was just regular toy RC cars and not radio controlled vehicles built from the ground up.

I've heard that 3k RPM is the sweet spot for 3.8s. I have an '07 auto with 4.10 gearing and 33s and my RPMs are always dead on 2k at highway speeds. 60 to 75 mph.

Sounds like it would be smart to get a terminal extender. Or wire them all up to their own separate terminal and connect that to the battery terminal?

Should post some pictures.

Such has been my experience. My Jeep came with one of those stupid .50 cal bullet antennas and my reception was absolutely garbage. Got an OEM one from a coworker that wasn't using their's and everything cleared up fine. Still using it.

Just buy an OEM one.

I hate to say it, but when it comes to JKs only use Mopar. I absolutely hate it and I have wonder if some sorcery went into these things to make it so, but that's how it is.
