    2008 Jeep JKU flatfender otions

    Currently running extended stock’ish flares to cover my 37s. Moving to 38’s In the near future and want to go with a lightweight plastic or metal/aluminum fender? I have seen a couple cool ones around the south end of the valley. Maybe also looking for those with experience repacking headlights...

    RIPP Supercharger Review at 5,000 miles

    I thought I would do a quick RIPP Supercharger review on my 2008 Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited Rubicon. I have owned this jeep since about 2010. When I bought it, it already had a teraflex 4” lift on it and that was about it. It now has 37” MTRs, 5.13 gears, and heavy roof rack, 3rd row seating (I...

    RIPP Supercharger Installation - 08 JK

    Do you have gearing done as well? Was it worth the $$$ I have thought about buying another vehicle with a V8, because I am feeling the need for speed, and since I am keeping the JK no matter what, why not supercharge it? I have 5.13 gears, 37s, and the 6 speed. It does okay…..but when my 2010...

    How does the JK rate?

    I have an 08 Rubicon Unlimited with 37s, 6 speed, 5.13s, a prorock 44 front, and a teraflex 4 inch lift. I have owned a few other jeeps in the past. This jeep is by far the most reliable, comfortable, and best wheeler of the bunch. I did replace both drivelines also with standards.... I have 4...

    a serious discussion: I want to run the Rubicon

    Me, my brother and a good friend did it a couple of years ago with 2 XJs (1 locked front and rear and the other with only a rear locker) and a TJ locked front and rear, all with 33's. We also had 2 winches in the group. We did the 4 day trip, 1 travel day to and from and spent 2 days on the...

    Mineral Basin - 13 September

    My brother and I took a quick trip up AF Canyon this week. I should have brought a better camera. It doesn't get any prettier. The white JK has stock control arms and OME coils, not bad flex...

    Death Wobble ?

    Were you coming back from Orem/Utah County earlier this week? I saw a GC with MASSIVE death wobble. I'm sure the one I saw messed his ball joints up pretty bad (if they weren't shot already). As was posted above, I would check the track bar first. On my dodge ram it was the track bar, on my...

    Hydro-Assist ????

    man, I have been eying this exact same project. It would be a nice upgrade to the Jk.

    Atlas Shrugged

    I saw it in Monterey last week. For such a low budget film it was good. The acting was rushed and there probably wasn't the time or money for a lot of re-shoots. It moved the message well and was overall pretty good, especially if you are a fan of the book.

    Moab Nov 18-21

    Me and another JK will be down there. I think we will run something moderate on the 18th, after 1 or 2 in the afternoon. Saturday we were thinking about doing the Spike (so I can tear up my stock bumpers). Not sure what we will do Sunday.

    BOB/survival pack. Something everyone should carry.

    This is a good consideration. For me, my vehicle is in a secure location at work (posted guard and fences) and while at home is locked in my garage. If I am in an area that is not secure, the gun comes with me in a holster (often just to compliment the other gun I have on me). I also have a lock...

    BOB/survival pack. Something everyone should carry.

    The stuff at cabella's works great. Get a Steripen and some 123 batteries. They are awesome, and the batteries have a 10 year shelf life.
