I thought all wrangler/gladiator owners park nose-uphill. Less chance of rain water entering the cab, less chance of pooling in the bed, no water pooling by the hinge mounts on the hood ( Mojave ).

My question is - do people search by looking for the oldest posts first?

Thank you for the enlightenment; I’ll look closer at the forums list and try to see why old crap is showing up. Does this stupid thing show forums based on a person’s age or something?

I swear, whatever you think you used to do for a living, you were in the wrong line - your stuff beats the crap out of any of the junk on the so-called comics on TV or stage.

How long can a Jeep park at a 20° angle, and are there any long-term issues?

Not sure, I had mine at 27-28* roll. Seatbelt was locked and wouldn't unlock to put it back on when I got out, then the truck tipped more and showed over 30* on the dash gauge and teetered back/forth. Had to check my rear, at night, alone (yes not the brightest moment) as I needed to back down a hill with no other light.

No engine oil issues?

Didn't have the light come on or any weird sounds. I was more concerned about rolling over and fuel not hitting the pump, been there done that in another vehicle on a trail. Never fun going downhill in an auto without brakes.

Shouldn’t be. Oil all drains down to the pan on shut off in these anyway. With that top mounted filter it all goes down. When it starts th pressure gives it the flow. Angle of incline shouldn’t effect anything. Your engine may not have oil for a couple seconds……… oh wait…… it’s a Pentastar. They’re used to that.
