Seems like what you can spend or how fast you can go instead of what you can use it for!!!

That's awesome, well done. Do you have a post regarding the details of your lift and tire size? I like the pew pew in the front seat too.

Didn’t even notice it was still sitting in there ? I did spring over lift extended brake lines drop pitman arm new shocks/ mounts I removed the bottom leaf outta the rear pack it lowered it about 1” and scrapped the anti sway bar overall in parts for lift I’ve got right at 400 but a lotta time scratching my head and figuring it out the tires are 33x11.5 with a 1.5” wheel spacer

shawnr, how much lift, and how are the pinion angles/caster? I am working on a lift as well, gained 3.5" in front and 1" in rear. This week end i will be dialing in the pinion angles/caster. The cost so far is around $550 with all new shocks and they were around $280 of the cost. I like what you did!!!!

Over 1000 miles and over 100 hours never been on a road and never been washed.
Starter motor is shot mud and water is getting into starter from being splashed and never been submerged I use it for work and expect it to work.
But if the starter fails at 1000 miles I have questions.

Have you contacted your dealer? If you have questions, that would be the best place to start.

That’s disappointing. Hopefully it’s just a fluke. However, is it possible to waterproof it when you buy it new, just to be safe? Or buy an upgraded starter? I’m used to having to upgrade any new factory vehicle I buy, it seems they all have their weak points from factory. On Ram 1500’s it’s the headers, bolts for said headers, upper ball joint/control arms, and tie rod ends. So if buying a Roxor means I need to upgrade the starter, I’m ok with that ??‍♂️

I guess the starter is pretty decent. The above incident looks one off and apparently, the usage and maintenance was in question with the above incident.
A better upgrade would be the axle u joints to ball joint ones, lockers etc. Definitely not the starter.

Well of course as soon as I pick mine up I’m immediately getting lockers, lift, bigger tires, solid doors, windshield, wipers, turn signal kit, tune, aftermarket exhaust, and hopefully a shop named “The Jeep Doctor” will fab a squared off roll cage for the back and a solid cab for the whole vehicle. Try to make it look OEM as possible. I’ll post as it goes

Must have been some manufacturing defect for that specific unit. Starters failing like that is unheard of.

Is the Roxor able to go into water, We have a lake we drive on the edge of to get to a logging road and I have a rhino 700 and have the water sometimes go over the headlights.
My Roxor will be ready in about a week.
