There are only 3.45 for non Rubicon and they come with 4.10 only. 3.73 is for Diesel only and that's new for 2020.

JL has aluminum outer knuckles, axle vacuum disconnect like a YJ/Ram has. Better MPG. Stronger ring/pinions. The JL has 8 speed auto vs JK 4 or 5 speed autos. The JL has available heated steering wheel.

I am huge fan of the 4cyl turbo Rubicon. Huge power from dead stop and highway passing. It takes some getting used to. Plenty of gearing for 35/37" tires.

Must have options IMO:
Trailer Tow HD electical, gets you the AUX switch so no need for cluster wiring when adding lights plus the dash is lacking space
Cold Weather
Technology group, gets you the 7" radio but also the nicer dash and cluster, the 5" radio only has a volume knob on the radio itself, so dumb

If I do run power to it, it would be straight from the battery and connect with one of these. I don't like the standard 12v cigarette plugs. Your solar idea is the best one, but I have to make the commitment and that can be a challenge for me.

The slides are rated at either 130 or 150 lbs. I have to recheck the specs. I would only buy a larger fridge for another cross country trip. I usually prefer a roto cooler because I like simple stuff and on most of my trips I only go 2 nights / 3 days before I need gas (and ice) anyway. I do already have a small Engel 15L fridge that is very handy but doesn't hold alot.

My dometic is connected right the the battery using the ARB kit, comes with everything you need for plug and play operation

These would be good for YJ Dave....

I would go for the pioneer camera then, it will work best with the radio

For what application?

I dont think he is ready and he wasnt ready the first time i took him through aoaa lol

hopefully you and i can break off and hit some of the harder trails

I'm not seeing anything on either the RC Facebook page or the website about a late opening.

Meeper no pending you must make it. I was talking to a guy at a shop I service down in Middletown. Has an XJ, says he knows you. Get him to come up too.

We generally roll in the parking lot around 8-8:30 ish. Hit the trails around 9 ish. Have you been to the park before?

do you remember his name? OOHHHHH is it purple? if so thats Zach

hmmmm these are the same trans i have been using my SRT for years with tripple the power if not more, i find it hard to believe this thing is smoked as they are rated for 428ft-lbs of input.

Are you sure its just not the valve body or converter?

I have upgraded my valve body in a mater of an hour, also changed the trans out in about 3 and been back on the dyno same night lol

Also i have the special dipstick for checking these transmissions fluid level

Does anyone know if Hunting is still going on up there? I hated waiting until 10am to leave the parking lot.

My attendance is currently pending...

trailering is always the best route, deff not a pita

99+ intake manifold is a popular upgrade

Hi Aaron,

I'm in a similar situation as the OP. I've been looking around for someone who can swap my axles, re-gear, and install lockers. I got your name from a couple people outside this forum and then obviously saw this post...

I texted a number on Tuesday that is supposedly your cell. Starts with a 2 ends with a 4.

Let me know if you can help. Thanks!

i know the owners really well, im friends with the son, i sell him parts to fix jeeps up all the time

I should be good to go by then.
