Replaced the spark plugs since this month marks 10 years (120 months) since the Jeep was built. I only have 53,000 mi but I read to replace them after either 100,000 mi or 102 months. I went with the standard Champion Double Platinum plugs, nothing fancy. I'm looking into why my MPG denies as time g...

Recently I have also replaced the PCV Valve and changed the air filter.

Did some small stuff over the last week. I had some surface rust on my transfer case and evap skids, so I took them off, grinned the rust off and bed lined them. While I had the transfer case skid off I drained the transfer case fluid and refilled it with SuperTech ATF+4. I went with that brand beca...

I read up on it after I posted the above, probably should have been the other way around. But you definitely seem to be on the right track. Maybe a 5w-30? Also saw that 2008's were notoriously bad. Is that your year? I have a 2007, which was very similar to the 08's. Once they figured out some of t...

Heavier weight oil likely won't help consumption. Need to find out where it's being consumed. Under warranty still? Also just Googling the 3.8 Jeep Motor Oil Consumption brings up countless threads about the problem. Somewhere in there, probably a lead as to why and potentially how to fix. The 3.8L...

Have mounted a roller fairlead and put on a winch cover. Also installed a set of Mopar splash guards... I have also figured out how to make my pictures appear right side up. I will soon be switching to a heavier weight oil to help reduce oil consumption by the 3.8L.

Recently Installed a ARB front bumper and SmittyBuilt XRC winch. The bumper looks great but could have been easier to install. The pre welded nuts were almost too snug to get the supplied bolts to thread into, I had to thread them on the ground first, take them out and rethread them when we mounted ...

I have a ViAir 2.5 Gallon air tank that is set up to mount behind the stock bumper, I would like to trade for one or two smaller tanks. A brand new full set of black and tan coverking Neoprene seat covers $60. I also have a front skid plate that is not compatible with my ARB bumper, solid metal fair...

Over the break I changed the front and rear diff fluid, opted for the Lube Locker gasket for the dana 30 and the paper for the dana 44. Finally changed out the factory terminals which wouldn't stay tight for the Quadratec "heavy duty version". Also picked up some rubicon rock rails for che...

Installed a Rugged Ridge Cowl Snorkel and broke out the Bikini top. My girlfriend bought a 2016 JKU.

Thanks speedcracker, as noted in my previous post I now understand that I am moving the same volume at a lower speed. I'm trying to avoid going back to a smaller pipe ($$) but I of course recognize that returning to the stock sized pipe would correct this.

Increasing the diameter of the exhaust pipe caused me to lose back pressure so I'll be installing a Snorkel or CAI to help with that. What? Eddie, thank you for asking that question. In my attempt to answer it I realized that I was WRONG! What I did was effect the "scavenging" of my exhau...

Recently I installed a 3" AFE Mach Force XP Cat-Back system. This model is high tuck and does a good job of getting the exhaust out of the way. Also welded on some Teraflex rear control arm skid plates about a month back. Increasing the diameter of the exhaust pipe caused me to lose back pressu...

JKU front and rear Coverking neosupreme seat covers in black/tan. Clean in good condition, only flaws is that one of the fasteners has broken off on the drivers seat and one on the passenger head rest, however you cannot tell. Text is the best way to reach me 571-991-6153. I will entertain reasonabl...

Took the time to sand, grind, and brush all the surface rust off my undercarriage. Once I got it cleaned up I applied some Rust-Oleum and high temp grill paint to everything. Should get me through the winter I'd say.
