    To the JK dudes....I was driving my rig today and all of the sudden shit went sideways on me. I had a red lightning bolt on the dash and the engine cut out, sputtered, and was running really rough. I pulled over and restarted it and it didn't do it again. I read some basics online and it looks like it's something surrounding the throttle position computer module. I hate all of these damn computers these days. A bunch of unnecessary nannys. Anyone else ever have that happen? I'm at 13k miles on mine so I will be trying to get over to the stealership so they can have a look at it.

    Ok, so wait- when you say it went sideways you mean literally? Like the brakes locked up or something? or it went into limp mode while you were 4wheeling? I been out a few times and been four wheeling then get on highway and it has no get up and go. Turn it off and then fire it up and I am cruising like nothing happened. Figured I threw off some sensors or something and it might have thought it was in an accident or something.

    some come with the LSD, i think! I haven't been able to verify the LSD, but heard some do. Might come standard but not 100% sure- Ill check my build tag and see...

    I got my brake lines done today. Came out sweet! Looking forward to finally getting some articulation without that pesky front sway bar!

    No I still run the front one on the street. It has quick disconnects for wheeling but I always had to leave it connected because the brake lines would tear if the front had too much flex. That's why I always had a wheel off of the ground (or two!).
