Any of you with 2010s, might have the same recall as I, just found out from Chris Nikels:

NOTE: This notification applies only to the above vehicles equipped with power door locks (sales code JPB) built from July 01, 2010 through November 23, 2010 (MDH 070100 through 112312).

The right front door latch, right rear door latch and/or swing gate latch on about 35,000 the above vehicles may develop a ratcheting sound while using the power door locks.

The right front door latch, right rear door latch and Wrangler swing gate latch must be inspected and replaced if necessary.


Just an FYI.

LOL. Remember, OME does not offer a single set of springs for the rear. You assemble an OME kit from several different springs that are custom-selected to offset the weight of your vehicle. These are supposed to give 2" of lift on an extra heavy vehicle. If I can get 2" of lift, I should be in great shape. If not, the next option is to look at spacers to give me that last little bit of "oomph" to level the vehicle. But, leveling the vehicle as it sits today is only half of the problem. That is, when I pull the top and all of the other heavy gear, I want it to remain reasonably level. Right now it will gain about 1-1/2" on the rear. My hope is that the stiffer OME springs will not change as much with different configurations. I don't want to have to change springs/insert spacers just because I've removed the top.
