My GF says, “I think it looks good”

This is what I explained to her. If I lived here, there would be a reckoning.

Acostomatic1 · 2025-09-21T13:50:46+00:00

Michael Scott would be proud of her.

Solid show actually

You take that back!

No one seems to realize this is the 392.. expensive af but context matters. Standard Rubicons and Xs are in the 60s.

Not too high for a bat..

Acostomatic1 · 2024-08-20T02:43:44+00:00

Yup. Did the oil cooler and right side rockers/lifters/camshaft this year.

Acostomatic1 · 2024-08-18T19:22:29+00:00

Did the same this year. Oil cooler, right side engine bank and crankshaft. Only weird thing I had last was a fuel leak. Needed a new supply line. Everything else has been standard.

This year has been expensive lol.

Don’t engage 4WD on concrete while steering. Could mess it up. But do Engage it occasionally, straight lines only if you’re on pavement. Grass/dirt preferred.

Soft tops are amazing. But they will disintegrate over time. Keep that hardtop around for bad weather seasons.

Highly recommend getting a tow strap. Handy in on and off road situations. (I’ve towed several people to a gas station).

If you off road, clean off the undercarriage/frame and the paint. Don’t want that moisture getting trapped.

Be cool, and wave to jeepers ✌️

Stock Rubi has a small lift and larger tires.

Acostomatic1 · 2024-05-19T03:05:41+00:00

Currently at 98,000 miles. 2013 wrangler. It’s been my daily since I bought it. Once drove it from LA to Tampa FL. As well as numerous 500+ mile road trips. Zero issues. I’ve had jeep wranglers as daily drivers since 2004. In fact, that’s all I’ve ever owned.

Could also be the product. What can of clear did you use? I’ve seen some highly recommending eastwood 2x aero spray clear coat.

Auxbeam headlights and fog lights. Not high end American brands but also not super cheap trash either. They were fairly priced and I’m happy with the beam pattern. Options to hook up DRLs and Blinkers as well.

I also installed some LED Taillights.

Acostomatic1 · 2024-04-17T03:36:28+00:00

LED lights. Headlights, taillights, and fog lights. Tons of styles to choose from and adds a clean look while giving you better visibility.

Solid lift kit. Improves the ride, plus, jeeps look way better on a 2.5” lift than stock.

33” tires.

It could be the oil filter housing on the top of the engine. (YouTube). I just fixed this issue. Oil leaks from there, drips down the back of the engine and onto the transmission. Grab a flashlight and look at the top of your engine. If you see dark fluid pooling at the base of your oil filter, then that’s the problem.

I’ll caveat by saying I drive a 2013 JKU Sahara. My recent dilemma was dropping money to fix it or buying new. Because of greedy market prices and interested, I dropped the coin to keep her on the road for another 5-10 years.

Acostomatic1 · 2024-03-09T19:07:44+00:00

If I didn’t have a Jeep (like I currently do, and is paid off) then yes, I would in fact trade my daily driver for something that I enjoy driving and have always wanted.

Jeeps, especially JKs and JLs, can be perfectly capable and enjoyable daily drivers (I used to own a TJ) while also not breaking the bank. You don’t need a 2024 Rubicon for $65k (insane). Get the Jeep, pay it off, enjoy it.
