The Blizzaks are excellent on a heavier SUV (my old shitbox Wrangler) and served me very well last winter going between the mainland and Cape Breton
I just did my friends Jeep this last week. Bilstein 4100. Anyways he says it ride's and drives like it did new again.
The OE version is the only one that works. Knock off t-stats will generally last a few weeks to a few months. The OE thermostat has been updated, pops at 203 degrees and lasts much longer than anything else. An OE thermostat seems to fail open. Whereas the knock-offs fail shut.
I recommend KYB shocks but not the Gas a Just ones. Swapped the oem ones out of my Wrangler and installed the silver ones. Rode a lot smoother, and Not expensive.
Got a set of five oversized Faulken Wildpeak AT3s for my wife’s Jeep Wrangler at our local independently owned tire shop for $950 (mounted, balanced, old tire disposal all included).
I've run the AT3's for the last three years and love them. Better than KO2's, Dura's, and Ridgegrapplers that i've run. All in 35', DD JKU. I'm in CO, so snow, rain, mud and weekend wheeling. They are the best all around. The GY are the best in the snow, but the Toyo's are a close second. I do feel like they won't have the mileage of either the Dura's or the KO2's. Only downside I see.
I have no issue with their higher end filters, I'm actually running one on my wrangler currently but their budget filters are atrociously bad
head gaskets blown on my 3.6 a few days ago. $3k. Not stoked. Have 193k miles. So not bad I guess.
My nephew's 2018 Jeep Rubicon with 84,000 miles just had both head gaskets, a camshaft, timing chains, and some other work done.
Duralast thermostat? They are a piece of shit!
