r/Jeep

Right now I’m running these American Racing AR23s, but I picked up a set of AR62s in practically mint condition with the original boxes and center caps.

What’s the better look?

is this gonna be impossible to get repaired under warranty?

I ordered a part (a side step for a Wrangler) from Quadratec, and received it in reasonable time. However, when I opened it, it was obvious that someone else had returned it, and it had been put back into inventory without being checked.

The instruction book was torn up. The bag of nuts/bolts/washers was opened, and stapled back shut, and most of them were missing, and the individual parts were all just rattling around in the large box, and were scratched up.

The scratches are not a big deal since, y'know, it's something I'm going to be stepping on many times a day, but I'd still like to receive something in new condition or have a restocked discount of some kind. But the missing installation hardware is the larger problem.

Anyways, my question is, what's been your experience with Quadratec customer service? Can I expect them to make good on this? I've not heard back from them, but it's only been a few hours, and I've never had this kind of a situation with them before, and it's *definitely* not what I've come to expect from them.

Edit: Once I found the phone number, and called, they *IMMEDIATELY* shipped out the missing hardware. They offered to send me a whole new kit, but that seemed overkill and also would necessitate the hassle of shipping this stuff back.

So, color me impressed with the customer service.

Currently have a 2013 Wrangler Sport, want to upgrade a little to a newer model. Live in Colorado so going to trails and hiking is a big thing, want to get her trail rated too through Jeeps system.

Do I get a Sports, or a Willys?

I figure I can upgrade bumper, tires, winches, and get diff lock on Sports, or do I go Willys and make the necessary changes. Ideally would like to keep her manual and maybe thinking leather, thoughts on pros cons.

Current specs; 2013 Wrangler sport, 33s, 3 inch lift, cloth, hard top.

Purchased brand new, after 6 years, no major issues. Maintenance matter ✌️

I'm regearing my Chrysler 8.25 to 4.56 gear and I'm wondering if my pattern is good or not? Any help is really appreciated.

At what point do we decide to truss the axles?

Is it something that we do ahead of time or is it something that we do in response to an event? It would make sense that it’s something that we do to prevent any damage from happening to begin with.

Any idea what could it be? It’s doesn’t to it all the time but today it did. Usually it’s only the door alarm and warning that happens

Recently installed on my non-lifted Jeep. Is this how it’s supposed to look?

Hot take:
No ducks? I respect it.
No wave? I respect it.
Ducks with no wave? That’s a 🍆 move.

Thoughts?

Got her for 3800. 6 cylinder with 185k miles and the same owner for over 20 years. I drove her about 60 miles all around with no issues. went to back it down my long driveway and unfortunately had some repeated clanking when driving in reverse. not sure what that is yet… hoping nothing major but nonetheless seems like a good price for 3800

Was looking for a project car to do some wrenching and take it out to the desert on weekends. Found this TJ locally for $2,800 talked down to $2,000. Frame has surface rust but it’s solid, gave it some stabs with a screwdriver all over. Needs new front fenders, new Power steering high pressure line, and a cat back muffler. Got that fixed for $1200 and have about $5,000 left to work on it.
Its a 5speed manual, unfortunately it’s the 4 cylinder but couldn’t pass for the price
