Damn. Have 1 Weekend after we get back to get the Jeep ready....😯 It hasn't moved since Easter Jeep Safari this year. But at least it will have a nice new set of Mickey Thompson Baja Boss MTs on it. The last set had about 1700 on them...I think its getting less and less every year...:( Cant wait to see everyone this year!!

OnPointOffroad replied to theksmith's topic in Your Rig!
okay, So we just run heavier oil for the rest of the life of the Jeep? I want to know WHY this has solved the issue for you, and 4 other customers with the exact same issue...... -
Hey all, its the yearly tire purge for me...I have a set of 4, 37 12.50 17 Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ tires for sale. All have 10/23 DOT codes, 1800 miles on the set, no cupping or chunking, no plugs, patches or otherwise damage. I am going to list them here before Marketplace or Craigslist. 1,700 for the 4.....If you are interested, please send me a message with the time and date on it, and I will get back to you when I return from Moab. I will be back on the 3rd. No, these are not on the jeep right now, but the 38" stickies are...:)

You are very welcome sir! Typically, we wash every 3.6 prior to removing the upper intake or lower. As we all love our Jeeps, the 3.6 tends to store dust and dirt in strange places. So, to avoid any internal contamination, its best to clean them first!

Errick does really good with right foot control with a 500+HP 6.2 LS in there!!! It also has a 4.3 Atlas and 5.13s in the 9" rear and HPD44 front. The rig works REALLY well. -

Errick and I are planning a trip thi summer for 2 weeks, starting in Phoenix, and headed to Rock Mountain national park, then eventually ending up at Mount Rushmore, it will end up being an approx 3k mile trip, stopping at cool places every day. Camping every other night, Hotel every other night. Let me know. Ya still got time..:) -
Thats a little high for just head gasket replacement. There are some expensive gasket kits involved, (Primarily front cover kit) But its mostly the labor involved. There are absolutely variables also, And with it being a 2013 I would do a leak down test FIRST before condeming a head gasket. The 12, and early 13 (pre 06-13 build) have been very problematic for us. We just started into our SECOND head replacement for the week today. So, whoever you have do the job, there are a few things I would suggest that are done at the same time IF they have NOT been done in the last 6 months/ 5000 miles....1) rocker arms on that head, lifters on that head, Thermostat assy, Oil cooler/ pressure and temp switches, spark plugs and coil boots. At that point in the game, its just a parts cost with little to no extra labor charge. I will be in the office tomorrow (Thur Dec 14th) If you would like to call and talk about it. We will be closing on Dec 15 thru Jan 2 for the holidays. Joe OnPoint Performance and Offroad AND OnPoint Pentastar Professionals, LLC 623-234-3339 **Spoiler Alert** New, 5300 sq ft Location coming soon! Stay tuned for location! (We actually have it, but Not telling anyone yet..;) )

Any members that own an "Adventure" bike or a Street legal Dual purpose bike that would be interested in doing some riding?? I have a 2018 Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports (AKA "The BIG Bike") and a 2018 Honda XR650L that are getting bored sitting in the garage....If you have a bike post up here and maybe we can put a trip together!!

LOL....Diane, I got tired of desroying a Jeep every 18-20 months, and bottom line, its one of those "been there, Done that" things. For years, I always had people that were trying to get me to do the scenic, mellow trips and I always said NO!!!...I wanna go crawl rocks!!!... Now, The older and Wiser Joe is enjoying seeing the beautiful sights around me when offroad. Now, as you know, that dosent mean I wont take a completely stupid, off camber vertical line every now and again.......:)

Glad we got the wobble to go away!!! I think honestly, it was a little bit of all 3 things contributing to the wobble. Just a quick note for those with the 8 speed trans (8HP50/60/70/80)...The JL/JT Wranglers are the only ones with serviceable filters in the trans. They use a metal pan and 2 small nuts to hold the filter to the bottom of the pan....on all the rest of them, the entire pan needs to be replaced as the plastic filter housing is plactic welded to the pan and serviced with a new plastic pan. I have not yet had the chance to confirm nor deny the use of the metal pan on any other 8HP Trans.....

Well Hello Everyone!! Guess I should start out with "longtime member, first time poster"..:) My name is Joe and I own and operate OnPoint Performance and Offroad and also OnPoint Pentastar Proffesionals, both located in Glendale Arizona. A little background with me, I was a dealer tech for Dodge and jeep from 96 Thru 2001. At that point I had made the decision that I needed to open my own shop. in October of 2001 I opened Absolute Offroad. I had that shop untill I sold it to Jason in May of 2011 to pursue a career in law enforcement. I worked as a reserve Deputy with MCSO until Sept of 2018. Around the middle of 2014, I started getting the itch for the Jeep world again. At this point, I opened OnPoint performance and Offroad. Many of you have been my customers for years, from the early AO days to current. Just recently, the Jeep life has started becoming strong again with me, not in the hardcore rock crawling and smashing sheet metal as of yesteryear, but more of the scenic, fun wheeling and camping. Southwest Colorado is my zen and any chance I can get there, I will. I look forward to meeting everyone in the future, as I am going to be joining in on a few runs and trips! You will not see me "pimping" or pushing my shop on here. Im not that kind of guy. But if you want to ask me anything, pleaase feel free to ask!! I drive a fairly "stock" :) 2006 LJ that seeps to work well for me.
