First saw this thread this morning and thought about it on and off all day. I'm in my second JT now after selling the first one two months ago. Had it since new for a little over 4 years and 47k miles. I can honestly say everything about the first one held up better than expected. The only...
I'm quckly running out of options for cloning the ecodisel ecu. My biggest problem is being without the vehicle while it is in transit. The closest possible option is a little less than 500 miles away in Missouri. If shipped, I'd be without it for minimum 5 days and it doesn't sound like...
This was the second time mine has come up in the last week. I've been clearing it but next time I'll see if it goes away on it's own. I've had a Banks Derringer and Pedal Monster installed along with iDash for the last month but I bypassed the Derringer and removed the PM today at noon. I...
They are less than 500 miles so driving up there if they will clone it is the best option I've found. I will contact them and see what they say. My issue isn't necessarily that I want a clone for backup althought that would be nice. The Gladiator is currently my only vehicle and being without...
I spoke to the service manager again today and after researching it more he said he misunderstood about the key fob. He says the problem it would create is with the ECU security key. He said that to program a new ECU they would connect the blank to their hardware to flash software from...
I have a new blank ECU but after reading through everything I chickened out. Rather than clone it myself, I've asked my service manager about programming it for me. They have no trouble doing it and will charge me an hour labor which is $150. My computer skills aren't great so I'd rather pay...
I didn’t try adjusting the standard latches. With the locking latches I used on the first JT, there was about 1/8” of play and that was enough to adjust tension.
Thank you for pointing it out! I thought I’d read the whole thing but sure didn’t see it. I understand the risk with used and will probably go with a new one. Will read through the entire thread again tomorrow before ordering anything. Thank you again!
On my 22 JT Rubicon I used a Clayton overland plus 2.5” lift, Falcon 3.1 shocks, Fox ats steering stabilizer, and had 37” Baja Boss tires. It not only gave me more than enough room for the 37s, it rode and drove much better than it did stock. Completely got rid of all wandering and tracked...
I’m about a month in now and loving the diesel. It doesn’t feel like I’ve done much to it yet by there are a few things I’ve added.
Went with a Banks Derringer tuner, iDash and reused the Pedal Monster from my 3.6. The Derringer added noticeable power. Pedal Monster got rid of throttle lag and...
My JTR did until I switched to locking hood latches but the 23 diesel doesn’t with stock latches. Driving in to a 20mph head wind today it didn’t move
