Mine squeeked once just today for about half a second, after coming home from driving a very dusty road. First time in over a month (since the TSB). Before the TSB it foghorned every single time I put the car in reverse, no matter the environment, no matter the time of day.
In my appendix holster on me, or in said holster in the glove box if I have to pop in somewhere sensitive. Sometimes I throw the appendix rig in the rear under-seat storage compartment. But never permanently mounted/stored for more than a day. This car looks too nice so break ins are too likely...
You also have to remove and trim the gas tank skid for the badlands.
The lack of badlands specific products from JCR is the reason I've been staying away for now. Hopefully they rectify this.
I also tore off my felt in Moab. Good thing the badlands has that steel plate over the canister itself at least. I love HRG so I'm excited to see what the install and build quality on these are like. I'm also excited to see them coming out with new products for the BS. Hopefully they're working...
Used it last month when I had the brake moan TSB done. It was hilarious because the tech got to hear the noise at it's absolute worst - first thing in the morning. He was like, "What the hell man! That's horrible!"
Haven't heard any first hand feedback about the HRG 2.5" kit, but it looks sick. I figured if I'm going to put in the work to add a lift, I might as well go full bore and lift it as much as feasible.
It's nice to have a 5th wheel that matches your other so you can rotate them in with the rest every 5000 miles. Makes it so your spare always has the same tread and (and therefore diameter) as your others.
Finally got mine back today from the dealer. Praise the car gods, the moan is gone!!!!
For reference, I had the first of the 3 TSBs done last year and it made the issue worse.
It's pretty well understood by now that the noise is a resonance mode in the rear brake system and not a mechanical grinding of any parts. With that said, I totally believe that changing the material of the rotors would solve the problem by changing the natural resonance frequencies of the...
Looks like the start of the south loop. I'd love to know if they made it past the very last hill leading back to the main road. I made it up the wall halfway through (I posted the video of it earlier with my buddies dropping f-bombs. I apologize to that dude's children), but had to bow out at...
You're not lying, their website does say that.
But I flat out don't believe them. Those things definitely hang down below the pinch weld.
There might be some semantic difference between "ground clearance" and distance to the ground at the door sills. Maybe they mean they don't hang down any...
They were not able to rectify the defect on the first attempt while still under warranty, so the subsequent attempt with the new TSB will be covered. That's what my dealer told me when I set up my appointment for later this week.
If your dealer is pushing back on that, go to another dealer.
