All good comments. I assume you have added some form of suspension modifications in order to run the 37s, and that you have used something like a Tazer or used JScan to reset your system's to accommodate the larger diameter tires. ABS/traction control issues can come up if the axles arenāt...
When the brake warning light on our business' Dodge Caravan illuminated I opened the hood to see if the brake fluid level was low. Instead I discovered a very large, very terrified rabbit that had been eating the leads to the brake fluid level sensor. He was ok, but had taken a ride under the...
I have Bartacts on my '09 JKUR. The fronts were installed a couple years before I got the rear set. Over the intervening period of time something must have happened with their production. While the fronts fit perfectly, the rears do not and the difference is obvious. You might contact them and...
Iād say room temp. I did the Freedom Panels on the dinning room table and the hardtop panels in a heated garage. There are only two thin strips of the 3M tape on each panel, and the panels have some weight to them. Needs at least double what they supply.
Bringing this back up. The install on my new Gladiator did not go at all well. They provide a skimpy amount of the 3M tape adhesive. We thoroughly scuffed and acetone prepped the mounting areas of the roof panels per their supplied instructions. Despite this the panels one at a time fell off...
I have a 4ā Teraflex long arm on my ā09 JK. Iām only a few hours from Moab, the sliders, control arms and underside of the rig bear many rock scars courtesy of those trails. Scrapes are fine, try not to hit it so hard you bend stuff. If you bend it, hey, you wanna play, you gotta pay.
I've had a set of magnetic mount LUX rock lights on my JKUR for quite a few years now. They are wired along with spot & wide beam Rigid lights. They are wired via a first gen sPod system that works great. sPod has some JT systems that are pretty pricey but will likely perform well...
I think it just depends upon how you'll use the truck. A couple weekends ago I installed the Teraflex 1.5" leveling kit on my new '23 Willys Sport to get rid of the rake get a bit more clearance in front. To get back the caster lost to the leveling kit, last weekend I installed the longer lower...
We have five Gladiator Sport Max Tow automatics in Jeep tour service here and in Moab. We use the manual mode regularly when descending steep grades to prevent overheating of the brakes and have had no issues whatsoever with the transmissions. Something isnāt right with your setup, Iād be...
There was 45 lbs of air pressure in my new Gladiator's tires whe I drove it home. I reduce it to 35 lbs, 37 is way too much IMHO. It came with some wretched 255/75 (32ā) BFG KM2 mud terrains, a tire I had on my JK and hated, so I swapped them out for some Rubi spec 285/70s (33ā) KO2s as this is...
The voice of experince here. Do not cheap out on suspensions. Do your homework, be patient and do it ONCE. Frankly, from my experience other than the fact it doesn't provide adjustable or lengthened track bars the Mopar kit is hard to beat up to 37" tires. We have five tour Gladiators with the...
This setup is similar to replaceable batteries in a flashlight. It may be that only one of them is in its death throes, but you should replace both at the same time. One on its way out will slowly kill the other.
There's a lot of āInternet wisdomā on this subject, a lot of it just jumping to...
I just did this kit on a new ā23 Willys Sport. The stock stance/rake was excessive IMHO. Ideally Iād have preferred a 1ā longer spring as we have no idea how long those TF spacers will last. Not sure if a Rubicon or Mohave front spring set would have done the job. But, these retain the nice...
I didn't read through all the posts here so sorry if this has been covered. I put the TF 1.5" spacer kit on my new '23 Willys to level it out and get rid of that rake. I did notice the reduction in caster almost immediately, so I just installed the Mopar 2" kit front lower control arms and based...
Our Jeep tour business runs five ā21 Gladiator Max Tow Sports with the Mopar 2ā lifts & 33s. I took advantage of the big discount binge and scored a ā23 Willys rather than a Mojave or Rubi, primarily because I have a built JK that does the heavy lifting. No mods for the Willysā¦.except for 33s...
On a recommendation I installed the RokBlokz fronts on our three Jeep Tour Gladiators. They have worked extremely well and have held up remarkably. I'll put a set on my personal JT soon.
Front control arm drop brackets are a way to keep the front control arms in the same orientation as stock and eliminate the need for adjustable arms. As you lift the frame with longer springs arms start to form a downward orientation that reduces caster and can increase impact jolts into the...
