I have the same issue you described with my 6 spd JK as well. I'm on 37s stock gears (3.71), endlessly stalling. I try to give some gas and ride the clutch to overcome it, at the cost of sliding the clutch.
@silverfoxjk yeah it's pretty frustrating. I have 37s with 4.10 gears however I don't think that has anything to do with it. It's got to be some kind of engine function/ sensor function problem. I've been trying to figure it out for a year and a half
Considering 4.88 is the recommended for 35s, you probably wanna have 5.13. Maybe do a proper gearing before tossing bigger wheels on to keep power proper
@Foof50 the 4.10s should be fine with 37s. I don't think it's a power issue. There's some issues with the engine functioning properly. Some sensor or something keeping it from having power at low rpms.
Mine does this randomly I have a 14 2dr jk on 35’s manual. And I have to use my flash cal super chips programmer. And sometimes reset it twice to 87 octane. Also notice that the quality of gas does this. Especially gas going up and down 75 in Georgia to Florida. Pings a lot. Try unhooking the battery for awhile. Then let the jeep relearn its throttle position. You potentially could have a bad throttle body. For some reason on the 3.6 the throttle wires are tied into the oil pressure switch. I had a short near the oil switch. But it kept throwing throttle body codes. Also if you have a super chips programmer. I use towing for the trails. Feels like I have a bit more low end from idle.
@Superman01811 i replace the throttle body and it had no affect however I didn't use an oem throttle which these engines don't like non oem electronics for whatever reason. Maybe I'll try it with the tow tune and see what that does.
You knew what you'd be getting the Jeep into when you were shopping. Because of the need for left foot braking when crawling you should've bought an automatic.
That's not the problem. It's not a problem with roll back or needing to hold the brake. There is definitely a problem with the engine becauseit doesn'tstay running. My old jeep didn't have that problem with a manual.
@muddyWW as far as the trails go they are still fine for fill size rigs but definitely over the summer the place is over crowded with sxs. Your better off going during the colder months when the sxs aren't there as much.
in 4 low in 1st gear it should crawl up that what engine do you have if it is a v6 swap it for a straight 6 or v8 the jeep v6 is junk for off-road the way it stalls sounds like a fuel problem bigger injectors or better air flow the manual v6 the 1st gear is lower then a 5 sp 1st gear most off-roaders prefer the straight 6 with 5 sp with 4 10 gears
@kenmiller5954 it's a v6 with a 6 speed manual and 4.10 gears and a 4.1 transfer case. It really should crawl like you said but it doesn't. I have seen some people talk about needing bigger injectors. The real issue is the fact that everything is run off computers.

mine does fine with a manual 😙

we are experts at making other people who do these trails look like pros 🤣
We can't all be winners.
Is it better or worse for fullsize ( Jeeps and the like) now that Badlands seem to be catering more for the SxS community?

@@JeepsLimited Colder months I go south, I hate anything below 50°
@muddyWW that's probably the best move lol I don't actually mind wheeling in the snow.
@@JeepsLimited I wan to do snow but it has to be untouched deep snow. But it has to be deep, 3 foot or more
@muddyWW that would be fun. Ive never done any snow that deep.
thats a sign you need a xj
@hayzersolar right lol anything with a straight 6 would be fine.
Then go with a TJ and not an XJ.
@@Foof50 that's what I want lol
