great post!
Thank you, coming from you, that means a lot.
Jack,
I have been watching the threads for both your truck and LJ as I have the same. I must say they are both awesome vehicles.
I have a couple of questions if you don't mind.
First where did you find the Hiline fenders? I have been looking and best I can tell they are discontinued.
Also when you flat tow the Jeep without the camper, does the rear of your truck get lite when you stop hard?
I ask because mine has given me a few scary moments.
Thanks,
Ray
Thank you, I have tried and sometimes I think gone a little overboard, but I like where I have both of them. They work very well at what I want them to do.
I sourced them last year when AEV pretty much said, "Here are the last ones we are going to do." I am nervous about the possibility of ever damaging them, but that is the risk I suppose. It's too bad that AEV has forsaken anything TJ, because their excuse was that there were problems with the flare supplier and that is why the highline kit is being discontinued. They are going to continue offering the hoods, but the fenders are no more.
To be honest, I have never flat towed the Jeep. I took the tow bar brackets off and even removed the wiring for the tail lights. I installed the Mopar 7 pin trailer plug (made for LJ's) and that required that the Roadmaster rear light harness be removed. There are a few other guys on here that flat tow theirs, so they may be able to help.
Also, congrats on a great combination. I am extremely satisfied with both my Duramax and my LJ. Pure perfection for my uses.
Jack
