  1. Bed D ring tie down torque specs

    Thanks, I was looking for those as well … it was unclear if that’s what was being referred to. Edit - Note: this is a third party DB and could be inaccurate. I added it for context so we can get to the right answers. I will provide feedback to the DB owner if we find a true answer (not that...
  2. Torque specs for Gladiator?

    Please do confirm these, I’d love to provide feedback to the db owners (not that it guarantees they’ll actually fix / keep up lol ?)
  3. Torque specs for Gladiator?

    No problem. Agreed, I always find myself having to go thru multiple sources and TSBs to confirm. I just figured I’d add these to the discussion so we can get to the right answers as a community. It is often confusing how they reference things in various sources and TSBs. I often find myself...
  4. Bed D ring tie down torque specs

    Attached is the procedure for the pick-up box from the MOTOR Driven Auto Repair Source database. Step 3 in the installation steps says "torque cargo box hold down bolts to 80 Nm. (59 ft. lbs.)".
  5. Torque specs for Gladiator?

    Attached is the procedure for track bar repair and replacement (including torque specs) from the MOTOR Driven Auto Repair Source database. Edit - Note: this is a third party DB and could be inaccurate as @ShadowsPapa mentions below, I added it for context so we can get to the right answers. I...
  6. Torque specs for Gladiator?

    That is the tie rod end nut. Attached is the procedure for tie rod repair and replacement (including torque specs) from the MOTOR Driven Auto Repair Source Database. m Take a look at figure 1 which has the bolts highlighted and the corresponding installation steps 5 & 6 (for lefthand drive)...
  7. Torque specs for Gladiator?

    Attached here are the Rubicon torque specification sheets from the MOTOR Driven Auto Repair Source Database. A quick look at other models (Mojave, etc) showed the numbers are generally the same. This references 33 ft-lbs (45 Nm) for the low ball joint which apparently was superseded by 59 ft-lbs...
  8. Driving in 2 feet of snow

    Off-road plus gives you back first gear, as you said it also adjusts throttle control & traction control. It does seem to adjust the shift points a bit to higher RPMs for each gear. It can be useful in my experience. I find it helps to gain speed and keep momentum. Traction definitely feels a...
  9. Driving in 2 feet of snow

    I wanted to share some observations and experience after driving many miles in very deep snow in the mountains. I have a lot of snow rescue & recovery missions under my belt volunteering with a non-profit. It can be very slow going and sometimes it’s taken hours to go a few miles. I know it’s...
  10. Help with aftermarket lug nuts please!

    Spline drive lug nuts are great. I’m running Gorrilla as well on a set of Icon Vehicle Dynamics Rebound Pro but anything spline drive 14mm x 1.5 (or maybe 2”) looks like it’ll work. You should measure the length and get what you need. I believe they list 1.5” length as specifically for the...
  11. Control arm options

    +1 for Metalcloak. I’m at about 30K miles on their Game Changer kit with no issues
  12. Tire chains

    Whoops I forgot to answer your question about offset. I am running the Icon Rebound Pros (Innerlock bead retention) which have the following specs (a bit more poke out than the Rubicon wheels): Offset: -6mm Backspacing: 4.500"
  13. Tire chains

    Sounds like we are going a similar route, I wanted to use all the standard equipment for awhile. I got about 36K out of the Rubicon tires then considered 35s but ultimately decided to go all the way to 37s with regear. It was hard finding chain to span 33”, 35”, 37”. You could probably make it...
  14. Tire chains

    I’m running these La Clede reinforced V Bar (#3831CAM) on all four 37x12.50R17 Nitto Trail Grapplers. They fit just fine with a Metalcloak 3.5” Game Changer lift and the Rubicon fenders with the inner still intact. They may be a bit large for the Rubicon Falcon Wild Peak MT (~33”) but they do...
