    Rear Bumper Dirt?

    Towel method I just leave an old beach towel in the back. When you lean into get something, Toss that towel over the rear bumper, and your problem is solved. Additional plus is that you now have a towel to clean up spills. I'm sure that happens a lot with 3 car seats in the back!

    Rear hatch hits garage door. What are you doing?

    Pipe Insulation I spent a year trying to get my wife to unload the 4R before pulling into the garage. She ended up scratching the paint on our 2012. Now I have a piece of pipe insulation across the bottom of our garage door. It doesn't interfere with the garage door going up and down, and when...

    Any experiences flat towing a Jeep Wrangler?

    My dad used to always flat tow his 2 door jeeps to CO. He always pulled it behind a 6.2 Yukon though. We had no problems with the two door, very easy to pull, I would recommend not backing with it hooked up. He recently switched to a 4 door jeep, without the lift and 35 inch tires it pulled...

    Questionable ground clearance and concerns?

    We took ours up around the Ouray area last year with the stock suspension. I replaced/added budbuilt skids (still stock gas tank skid), we made it through alright. I was glad I added the skids though as they now have some trail tattoos. The only damage done was popping the plastic bumper off a...

    Snowquester - DC

    We got ours stuck. Heres the story!!! After finally talking my wife into taking the TE out to see how it would do she decided to try it. She was very reluctant, and mentioned over and over that I would get stuck. I backed out of the drive way no problem, but the alley was a different story...

    Rocky Road Slider Install Question

    I used the stock bolt to basically "clean out" the extra paint in the threads, and then I used the bolts from RR for final attachment. Pretty sure there was also quite a bit of WD-40 used too. Even using the stock bolt it almost felt like I was cross-threading the bolt/nut.

    Rocky Road Slider Install Question

    I had trouble getting mine started as well. From what I remember when the frame is painted some of the paint gets in the threads causing it to fit super tight. I actually took one of the factory bolts and used it to start all of the ones that RR sent with the sliders. You will also have to...

    Installing Bud built sliders 2012 TE

    I had the same issues with my rocky road sliders. They sent some spacers to put in behind the lines so they would not rub on the sliders. I had to get the foot long screw driver to pry them far enough out.
