What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

[TheSolarWizard]

Oh dang. Didn’t think about getting a part number before I installed. Bought from a salvage yard.

It was easy. Just make sure you disconnect both batteries and wait about 20 mins. Just need to make sure and be safe when dealing with airbag. Took me about 10-15 mins.

Did all the steering wheel controls function as well?

Installed Quadratec aux light bracket. Now waiting on my KC lights to show up

Wish I had these last year when I put on the Mopar ones. I’m happy with them but man what a pain. This looks 1000x easier!

So.. you cleaned the injectors at 1k miles? I must be missing something

Better mileage I suspect...just kidding.
Too soon as you say.

Although honestly I only saw a small increase in mileage.
Not very dirty.

Went from 14 mpg & change to only 15mpg in the Texas hill country with my heavy foot.

Maybe I am a perfectionist, or just anal. ?

I had to rig all my new fuel connection lines anyway & was bored waiting on UPS & FedEx for new Jeep bling.

Main reason was passing along the info to gear heads.

Normally I service like this only every 10k miles.



Many years ago if you wanted a warranty on one of our builds you had to change the break in oil @ 500. miles.

Then when store bought/crate motors became a thing
I sold all my three phase Berco & Peterson TCM 25 floatation head etc. machine shop equipment & bought a down draft paint booth.

First body shop to offer free rentals in San Antonio.

Matter of fact I had my wife go to the police station to buy police accident reports alongside the ambulance chasers.

Selected the insurances companies that paid well and brand I got the biggest sheet metal discount on then called the potential customer.

Went great for a few years until I called a federal judge.
He was pissed & police reports were no longer available to my body shop.

Second place is just the first loser. ?

And yes, I know engines are different now & my knowledge and schooling is 20 years behind but clean sensors do not lie to ECMs. ECUs whatever

Changing engine parameters based on dirty O2 sensors ain’t right.

Back then 80% of check engine lights went away after cleaning while other shops were selling new sensors.

and while I am rambling...

When Chrysler put ECUs on air cleaners long ago I was installing fans off Asian cars used for cooling vapor lock on carbs to cool the ECU.

Learn something new every day to die & forget it all.

Just passing it along.

# has been I am, but still long winded

Which lights did you get? I got the 100W halogens and they light up the neighborhood when I turn them on. KC’s are awesome.

So the buttons at fixed to the steering wheel?

I have a Rubicon with adaptive cruise and all the buttons, but I want to go the other way with a non-leather sports steering wheel if the controls buttons could switch over to a sport steering wheel (I know, I'm nuts).

No. I could have removed them and swapped them. I should have. But I was anxious to get the steering wheel on. I will probably go back and swap them. It is an easy thing to do.
