  1. Is that a diesel?

    The noise is present from start-up. I want to say it probably started at around 300-400 miles. If the dealership refuses to address the issue and gives me this is a normal sound BS, I will pay up front to have the valve cover removed and the cam inspected, If the cam is being eaten by the...
  2. Is that a diesel?

    I suspect an oiling issue, maybe a blockage in a channel. Definitely an early failure.
  3. Is that a diesel?

    But I didn't get the good MPGs of a diesel, this one has had a lot worse MPGs than I would have expected.
  4. Is that a diesel?

    Purchased this 2024 Rubicon X in January of this year. The engine has never sounded completely "normal" to me and seems to have a lot of valve train noise. I am well aware of the valve train issues the Pentastar 3.6 can have. I had a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. When I was up in Oregon a few years...
  5. Leveling Kit Install Anxiety

    Yes, a lift would be nice, just cant justify the expense. I didn't have to go to the gym while doing the install. I also installed a Yet trackbar on the front. Increased the length 1/2 inch from stock. Looks centered, but need to find a good place to measure from. I have fender extensions...
  6. Leveling Kit Install Anxiety

    I just completed a 2 inch AEV spacer lift with geometry correction brackets, along with a Steer Smart sector shaft brace, and airlift 1000 bags. Also at the same time, I did Rock Hard front lower control arm skids (axle side) and rear lower control arm skids both frame and axle side. It is not...
  7. DIY: Remove and replace drivers broken body mount bolt -- how-to instructions w/ photos

    I am doing RSE sliders on my 2024 Gladiator today. My Gladiator was built in September 2024 for what its worth. I was able to get all six of the body bolts out. I used a small benzomatic torch to focus the heat on the head of the bolt. I heated the head of the bolt to about 250 degrees...
  8. 2024 Rubicon no FAD.

    In the middle of lifting and skidding my Gladiator. I thought I had a FAD, but have the delete plate. In my parts ordering process, I picked up the Hard Rock FAD skid. Any reason to have the skid without the FAD? Thanks!
  9. Jeep wants your input as to what powerplant to add

    5.7 Hemi would be perfect in a Gladiator. The option on my 2018 Grand Cherokee was only $4500. Lot of HP and torque, not much complication. Price the option reasonably !!!
  10. Where did you WHEEL your Gladiator today?

    Played around in the snow today.
  11. Warn 10/S, Bulldog Winch plate, OE Steel bumper fitment issues

    Ya know, I called customer service at Northridge prior to the sale and asked if the combination of the Bulldog winch plate and Warn Zeon 10s would install without any issue. Customer service said it would bolt right up, they had not heard of any problems. I have been a loyal Northridge...

    Can I please get a quote for a 2024 Jeep Gladiator Bedrug Impact Bed Mat with factory bedliner. Thank you!
  13. Alternate liner to BedRug

    Hey wachuko, Thanks for the link. I am going to order the Bedrug Impact liner. How do you like the RC molle panels? I have the same tonneau as you. Was it easy to install with the Roll and Lock XT tonneau?
  14. Alternate liner to BedRug

    Does that bedliner give some cushion for the knees?
  15. Using a matching wheel for spare tire

    Got my Gladiator a little over a month ago. I bought 5 takeoff hardrock wheels from a JK, Had them wrapped with with Falken Wildpeak AT4s in 35x11.5x17. When America's Tire installed the tires I gave them 5 preprogrammed Autel MX TPMS sensors so I didn't have to go through the hassle of...
  16. Warn 10/S, Bulldog Winch plate, OE Steel bumper fitment issues

    Thanks for the reply, I guess with the Bulldog plate because it sits behind the frame rails you get twice the fun. You have to grind the winch plate (which is a lot thicker than the frame rails) and the frame rails as well. Wish customer service at time of order when asked specifically this...
  17. Warn 10/S, Bulldog Winch plate, OE Steel bumper fitment issues

    Just curious if anyone has successfully installed a Warn 10s with a bulldog winch plate. When I bought the combo from Northridge I was told it would work without modification. Unfortunately the winch plate is not notched as the side of the frame rails are. See pictures, Ignore the bolts...
  18. 5.7 Hemi coming to Gladiator? TK Garage Reports

    I have a 2018 Grand Cherokee with a 5.7 hemi. The vehicle is a joy to drive and tows very well. It gets 22 mpg on the highway with its MDS. Looking back on the monroney sticker, the cost to add it to the vehicle: 5.7–Liter HEMI® V8 Engine $3,295 3.09 Rear Axle Ratio 700–Amp Maintenance Free...

    When I picked up the cover at Trucksmart, I also picked up a product called Truxseal which is sold as a universal tailgate sealer. The product is marketed by Truck Hero. It is an oversized weather stripping.
