I know a lot of gas euro cars spec it and they’re direct injection so I’m sure it’s fine. It’s a low ash formula that’s supposed to help prevent DPF clogs on the new Ecodiesel. I think any 0W-40 or 5W-40 synthetic would be fine, I’m just using this specific oil so I can stock 1 type of oil for...
Ecoboosts are hard on oil. 7500-10K is WAY too long even with a good synthetic. Used oil analysis on these engines show 5W-30 shearing to 15W or lower after longer oil change intervals. For peace of mind, I strongly recommend using a full synthetic 5W-30 and changing it every 5K miles with a...
Stick with a kit that includes a longer upper control arm along with the coilover to minimize downtravel loss with the added lift height. 4WP is the only game in town at the moment (besides the King coilovers) but there will be more manufacturers in the coming months.
I pushed my order to 22’ (ManSquatch 2Dr) but I *really* hope Ford keeps Cyber Orange available for 22’ models. If they ditch it, I’ll go Velocity Blue
All good, no worries! It’s impressive regardless that the 392 can fit true 37s out of the box. I know the Warthog/Braptor can do the same which is sweet. Consumer wins either way! Next few years in this segment is going to get very interesting
It’s got about an inch over a standard Rubicon from what I’ve read. It says 2” lift but they’re not measuring out at that. Jeep cheaped out with the lift on the 392 (shocker). Still has standard length Rubicon front lower control arms and tracbar. Need extended LCAs, tracbar and swaybar end...
I already asked. Waiting on a response. 392s don’t have that much fender clearance with 37s, especially Toyo’s, stock. Just saying. I know my Jeep’s...and Bronco’s
Jeeps traditionally hold their value incredibly well. Even more so with a newer Rubicon Diesel. With the way the used market is I bet you’ll get near top dollar if you decided to trade it. My thoughts are the same as yours, and I actually have a diesel Rubicon on order. Had a VIN # in 3 days but...
I’ve done a total 180 on my planned Bronco build since all these delays started...was a 4dr 2.7 Badlands SAS but now I’m leaning towards a 2dr 2.3/7MT Badlands SAS. Got bit hard by the ManSquatch bug so kicked my order to 22’
Used to daily drive/wheel an 06’ Power Wagon on 37s with a 6 speed...
Congrats on the 392! Bad ass Jeep. I ordered a Ecodiesel Rubicon last month and kicked my Bronco order to 22’ so understand where you’re coming from. Bunch of good Jeep/392 info on the JLWranglerForum if you make it over there
I did not as I custom ordered one earlier this month at my local dealer. Had I opted to go with the Rubicon Ecodiesel they had on their lot I could have negotiated the price some but it was missing some must-have features that I wanted.
