Default Who is buying the LIFETIME WARRANTY

I am buying it on Wednesday night, I work for a import dealer (parts dept.) part are expensive and I plan to keep my JK along time. I think for $750.00 I can't afford not to.
On my 2004 Rubicon the rear main seal went out at 60K so that alone would pay for it. I also need to know about any deductable, any info?

I got it. Cost is $750 with a $100 deductible and $900 with no deductible. Dealer cost is significantly less, but I don't know if that is negotiable.

My '99 Ram had the torque convertor go at 65K and took the tranny with it. Cost of repairs was $2200. I thought the warrantee was well worth it too.

I bought the JK new with a 3" lift and 35" tires from the dealer, so hopefully that will not void the warrantee.

see this thread

Jeff Sladick at Don-A-Vee is offering special pricing for JK forum members to purchase the same warranty that is coming now with the Jeeps, as well as some specials on others as well.

is that the $100 deductible or the $0 deductible?

Don-A-Vee had the $100 deductible $750 MSRP one for $700 for JK members and the $0 deductible $900 MSRP one for $825 for JK members.

The MSRP as well as pricing goes up after September 30th, so if you want it, get it before then for cheaper pricing.

Are you talking about about the Maximum Care Warranty or the Powertrain Warranty?

----Edit:
N/M - I see that it's the Powertrain Warranty under discussion.

Powertrain warrantee can be purchased separately by anyone who bought their dodge/chrysler/jeep in 2007 before July 28.
