The early JLs had some weld issues that were a flaw in the production process. That might have been what you encountered on your JL if it was an earlier 2018.
Another reason why I never buy a first model year.
More stats to prove my, "whoever recommended rebadging the 500x/l was a genius" statement.
47,000 Renegades sold in 2021.
1,300 or so 500X/L sold in 2021.
The issue that I was referring to and others has to do with the sway bar angle.
So imagine with stock suspension, the sway bar hump is at the 10 o'clock position. As the rear axle and suspension cycles, the sway bar will move a bit.
Well if you lift the rear end 2" but keep the same length of...
You are right then, those should be extended links.
My point was, I have never seen anyone report that they broke the mount with a stock Gladiator.
We all are adding additional forces and stress to our rigs with lifts and big tires.
I'd recommend disconnecting the rear sway bar links while...
315/70/17 C Rated is the factory tire on the 6,000 lbs+ Raptor.
E are not necessary on the 5,000 lbs Gladiator.
I love my KO2s and have had them and the original KOs for years.

At the minimum you'd need a FAD delete, axle shafts, driveshafts, knuckles, u-joints, ball joints, and truss kits. Honestly at that point, just buy a ProRock44 or 60/60, 60/80.
I get flamed...
My eyes are wide open with Jeep.
Knock on wood I've had no real issues.
Unrelated, related comment. A lot of modern reliability "dings" on these surveys have to do with usability of the vehicle and the infotainment.
If the screen is slow, or likes to reboot every now and then, the HVAC...
CR is what it is, but JD Power is bought and paid for.
With each you need a grain of salt, but especially with JD Power.
Either way, any person who claims that a Fiat is a reliable automobile must be a comedian.
I don't need to prove something that is generally agreed upon.
Everyone is...
Provide stats? Stats on what? Anyone who claims Fiats are reliable are smoking crack.
Not an angry rant, more comical.
In the end I don't give a F what some guys dad on an internet forum buys. I just think it is hilarious that people are recommending a Renegade then completely ignoring and...
