    Jerry and I covered a lot in this one. I&apos;ve tried plenty of Jeep upgrades over the years, and some have worked out better than others. What&apos;s one modification you&apos;ve done that you wouldn&apos;t do again? I&apos;d like to hear your experience. Thanks for watching, guys!<br><br>Check us out over at <a href="https://trailrecon.com/">https://trailrecon.com</a> for Jeep and off-road gear.

    I have a 2020 JT that i have owned since new. I installed an Edelbrock SC at 11k miles and just passed 40k. Good so far, power is nice, tows better, but mileage- not so much. It has served its purpose though. 👍

    99.9% of people will never need a snorkel, but the day you do, the consequences will be catastrophic if you don’t have it. It’s like carrying a fire extinguisher. I have never used it on my JK, but on my TJ I have more times than I would have liked. What people don’t understand is that you need more than a snorkel to do it it right. You need to raise all your breathers, and depending on your vehicle, pressurize your distributor. Fluid change after the water crossing are also a must.

    I bought a built up jeep on 35 tires and 18 in rims. &nbsp;Tires were heavy, near new, maxxis mud tires. I think fuel rims. &nbsp;Great but so so heavy. &nbsp;I could feel it struggle to slow down. &nbsp;I calculated the weight of these wheels and compared to other options in the market and basically they were the heaviest combination.<br><br>I decided to get lighter, Mickey tires and replaced with aluminum method wheels which are still heavy but overall I shaved off a ton of weight.<br><br>I think rotational mass on wheels and tires is a underserved topic. &nbsp;It doesn&apos;t have as much history and engineering behind it but I could feel a huge improvement in daily driving. &nbsp;Also 17 in rims mean cheaper tires which is a plus.
