    2013 jeep wrangler unlimited with 164,000 miles (264,000kms). Would you buy it?

    I contacted the dealership where this jeep was being sold. They sold it about 5 hrs before I contacted them, but never had a chance to take down the listing yet. Oh well.....They were asking 12,900 cdn.

    If you are still around, what lift parts did you use to get that pilot off the ground?

    I had one in the 2015 JK I had, and yes it was a good motor. What are your thoughts on the rig overall? do you think it would last if i got it rust checked and kept the orange scurge at bay?

    2013 jeep wrangler unlimited with 164,000 miles (264,000kms). Would you buy it?

    I am looking at a 2013 jeep here on the island with 264,000kms. Think it's going to be trouble soon? I do believe it's mostly highway commuting kms. It looks to be in good condition. Thoughts on the milage of the pentastar, and the wrangler itself. thanks!

    Got the rear control arms replaced and good to go. If they don't last, I will be moving to another brand of arms instead of moog. But for right now, we did a trip to the tablelands in Newfoundland it was all good!

    Overlanding 2014 Subaru Outback

    Yeah, I had to goto Goodyear auto center here to get a correct alignment. I have Moog adjustable everythings on my pat. Made a huge difference. Tire wear is MUCH better now.

    Overlanding 2014 Subaru Outback

    Love it. Did you get your alignment figured out? I will tell you if your rear wheels are out, water and snow will NOT be fun. Our Patriot was out of alignment bad and the back end of the jeep would fishtail at the slightest rain or snow coverage on the road. After the new parts and...

    Canada - Atlantic Region Meetups

    I am after seeing lots of Overland rigs this year in Newfoundland. Anyone from here? I talked to a couple of couples who were at wing'n'it in Grand Falls-Windsor. They were from Nova Scotia and stopped there for supper. I was getting some stuff from M&M and just had a quick hello. I was...

    Headlights for 2013 4runner

    Yep. the 07 era of all jeeps started doing this. I had no issue with the module itself but I cannot upgrade the lighting to LED / HID without flicker and lights going out

    Headlights for 2013 4runner

    That being said, Newer LED bulbs (good ones) have adjustments for beam location and the "filaments" are in the proper locations. I have a set installed in our F150 and they work great, no light spillage, glare either towards the driver, or oncoming traffic, and it has proper beam pattern. Hell...

    Headlights for 2013 4runner

    The Jeep uses PWM to run the high beams at a lower wattage. Sending pulses to the headlights. This causes the flickering you see with many headlights. Jeep gets away with it in their older rigs by using halogen which stays illuminated even after power is cut for the impulse. A LED is very...

    Headlights for 2013 4runner

    I would be getting H4, which HIR does not come in. I tried to get susquahanna to create a wiring harness for my rig already, they can't because of the DRL. I may contact them again, and see if they have something rigged up now.

    Headlights for 2013 4runner

    I want to install Hella E-Code housings in the patriot and put HID into them, but damn, this little rig does NOT like anything other than halogens. So, I think I am going to put Hella 2.0 bulbs in there.

    The Autism Family Travels updated vehicle build. Take two! 2015 Jeep Patriot altitude.

    Update on the stereo, it does not see the music in the thumb drive the way I wanted it to. I have to figure that out. There was/is a terrible squeaking from the back of the pat. Turns out the bushings in my Moog rear uppers are worn already. I have warranty replacements here from RockAuto but I...

    Ford Maverick and the small overlanding pickup truck

    I found the exact same thing. I want to take possession by this time next year. Our mortgage is up for renewal, and we will have a bunch of stuff paid off then, and can get into the truck and have less monthly outflow than we do now. So, we will be in one by aug next year. Can't wait either...

    Ford Maverick and the small overlanding pickup truck

    So me and Little man went and finally sat in one. It was an xlt trim which we will be buying. The seats are crazy comfortable. It's a great size, Little man had tons of room in front of his 6'1" chassis. He approves of the "cool" door handles on the inside. We are placing our order soon.
