Re: Aftermarket Switch Installation

Re: Aftermarket Switch Installation
I would shy away from cutting the console. I'd probably try and use an open (blanked out) switch panel. That's what I did on my TJ - I bought a switch for a hardtop rear wiper, and mounted in my...

Re: Track bar installation and rear alignment
You can cheap out like I did and get a rear track bar bracket:
Amazon.com
or get an adjustable rear trackbar. Either way should work to center the axle under the Jeep. -

Re: Trouble with 3" lift axle aligment
You can make it work. On mine, I used a come-along (like a manual winch) to pull the axle to the side. You may be able to do it with ratchet straps. Once you get it hooked up, you'll notice that...

You're looking at the trackbar, also called a panhard bar. It's designed to keep the axle under your Jeep. It's the red bar in this picture

Re: Question about putting mods on a 2020 4cyl
I'd think that the cost of regearing at a shop would be similar to the price difference between the 4 and the 6. You'd be better off starting with the 6 if it's in your budget.

Re: Question about putting mods on a 2020 4cyl
I wonder if there have been enough changes in the 2020 Wrangler to make this less of an issue. If he's already got 33s, going to 35s may not be that big of a deal.

Re: Question about putting mods on a 2020 4cyl
Are you planning on re-gearing, or running the stock gears? Any idea what the existing gears are?
What size tires do you currently have?
