FREMONTICA rd. is the trail and the steep section is an unmarked trail off that trail. Yes there aren’t very many rocks at Hollister and this section is fun.

I honestly don’t track the water amounts. Haven’t had any issues with the water dripping inside the engine compartment. Getting the hot air out has been the priority.

@@santacruzoverlander interesting I will think water will go in if the vehicle is not in motion. Thanks they look super good I was looking at them to purchase it. Thanks 🙏

@@mrjeffry25 yes, regardless of the trays, water will drip on your engine. They do look amazing and are functional to allow some heat out especially when driving slow on the trail.

Yes, has been fine for the last couple years.

It’s definitely one of those three. Haven’t had the time to dive into that.

You bet. Cheers!

Your welcome! Cheers

You bet

Depends. I only give the consumers the true about anything I promote.

@@santacruzoverlander Great! How can we send you more details about this issue?

Hello, never resolved. I haven’t had any issues but never did figure out the noise either. Cheers!

Thanks for the criticism. I can’t recall steps that I missed. Can you give me some insight. I’m a total beginner by the way. If there’s a will there is a way I tell myself. Cheers!

That piece of wood was only used to drill a hole in the carpet. Thanks for watching and hope the video helped.

You’re correct because I have the rain trays installed. Been testing the air flow with and without them. Might take them off. IDK yet.

Thanks for watching. Glad to help.

Awesome. Glad to give you some ideas. Enjoy your weekend of wiring.!

Thanks man!

Yes it would be cheaper but I don’t want to use a physical key to get under the hood. When you lock/unlock yours doors with the key FOB the hood does the same. Thanks for watching.

Glad I could help. Thanks for watching.

The new version does. Mine as installed uses a 12v unlock. Thanks for watching.

@santacruzoverlander awesome video I'm getting one for my jt

Definitely recommend. Don’t have to worry about people stealing your battery.

@@santacruzoverlander exactly...I don't want anyone having easy access under my hood to do anything to it or steal my voswitch or anything

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching

Totally understand

Absolutely. I need to boost the pressure in the pump or add hydro assist. Coming one of these days.

No, I never solved nor figured out the noise. Dealer spent days investigating. Just letting it ride.

I actually used a cheap mount with iPhone that I ducted taped to the tie rod. I only drove in the driveway.

I believe. Gusto Grade. Thanks for watching!

That’s going to be an unmarked trail. There are a few of them at Hollister that can be fun. Thanks for watching.

I don’t recall any trouble with the bolts during installation. A rubber mallet is always on hand if persuasion is needed.

Teresa, sorry that you have spent that amount of dough. My Jeep was/is still under warranty so it didn’t cost me money but instead lot of time at the dealership trying to figure out the noise. I have since then decided to just roll with it and the noise will go away when one ton axles are installed. Thanks for watching and good luck.

Glad to help. Thanks for watching!

Sorry about that. I’m just living with it until the tons go on. Sooooome daaaaay. lol

I hope you didn’t throw all that money at your axle to get rid of the clicking. No, I haven’t located the clicking noise and the Jeep dealer couldn’t locate it either with all there expensive noise location devices. My stock rubicon axle is 100 percent stock and have learned to live with it for the last 20000 miles. I haven’t had any problems on or offroad the last two years and the clicking noise hasn’t gotten any louder. I did listen to your RUclips video and it sounds similar. To me the sound seems to come from something inside the axle unloading.

I haven’t had any issues with the diesel engine. I am still waiting to have the high pressure fuel pump replaced from the recall. As for the engine cooling. Since it’s winter time I can’t give to a definitive answer yet. I do know that I haven’t been able to get the oil temp to go over 212 degrees F. I will report back with more time behind the wheel and higher outside temps.

@@motoacquatico1967 that’s a list to take care of. Warranty comping through.

@@motoacquatico1967 That’s a list. Warranty coming through.🤙

Thanks for watching.

Your welcome. Thanks for the comment.

Rich, Thanks for the constructive criticism. I will work on that and not use the front of the camera next time. LOL.

The base has slots in the four corners to allow water to gently drain out. All of the pieces are aluminum (I powder coated mine)and believe the hardware is stainless steel.

Thanks for watching!

Glad to help people with their Jeep build options.

Craig, thanks for your comment. They do look much better than the stock plastic ones. I’m definitely a fan of American made high quality products and Motobilt is all that. Cheers!

With a little DIY that could totally be done. Thanks for watching.

I’ve only driven it one day since the installation so I can’t say yet. The real test will be when moving slow off road and seeing if the electric fan comes on less. I will post a video using a thermal imaging camera shortly.

No, I haven’t had any overheating issues, but diesels do get hot.

Yes water will leak into the engine bay. The bottom water trays have four slots in them to allow a gentle drip inside the bay. Nothing to be concerned about. Think about driving in the rain and puddles. Definitely more water splashing into engine components. Thanks for the question.

👍🏻Thanks for watching! Cheers!

I won’t do that mud pit for that reason. Way too much work.

@@santacruzoverlander😁

I’m sure you could but I didn’t want to waste another switch. The other three switches are already being used. Besides, if you’re going to turn on your off-road lights (cause they can’t be used on the road) I want the most amount of light possible. Thanks for watching. Cheers!

Sorry to hear man. Don’t know why Jeep gives hood access to wranglers and not have a hood cable release like every other vehicle.

@santacruzoverlander it was an immediate lesson and rough welcome to the Jeep Life lol. I will say I'm enjoying the Jeep a lot. It Was worth all the trouble to keep my uncles baby and his memory going!!

If you donate a vehicle to a charity and the battery is dead, I don't think it's legal for them to steal the battery out of your vehicle. Did you call the police?

Hey Doug, yes the hood locks and unlocks with the doors using the FOB. If your doors are unlocked so is the hood. If your doors are locked so is the hood. Cheers!

I haven’t seen the installation process for the Mopar but I don’t think it replaces the factory hinges like the Teraflex. Hope that helps.

Austin, Thanks for watching. The squadrons can be angled in the bumper however you like. Mine are angled out a little bit only because I like that look. They can be pointed directly forward if you like. The bumper is amazing and would definitely purchase again. Cheers!

Thanks for the response much appreciated. I’ll play with them and see what works best.

If the 55 fits in the dometic slide and the handle doesn’t hang over the rear of the slide, it would work. I would have to go to the specification sheet to find out the overall length of the 55 and if it fits into the slide. My 45 touches the back of the seat when slid in.

@@santacruzoverlander size is 28.35 x 17.91 when on the floor, the door can close, but i fear if elevated 3” on the sliding platform, it may not.

Yes, the 55 won’t fit with seat up. My Dometic slide is 27.25” long and just fits with the seat up.
