Guessing you may be aware but the power tools at the factory are nothing like what you or I might buy. They do have some ability to detect cross threading (watch a YouTube vid of the machine that tightens the lugnuts) and it can keep track of each task. That is how you see those recalls of like...
I bought an engine/trans skid and went over to a friendās place yesterday to have a second set of hands to install it. Crawled under and noticed a leak from the back of the pan. Iāll be calling the dealer in a bit to get it looked at but a bit of a disappointment at such low miles. But it...
This is nothing new. Jeep has had sticker special editions for ages now. The Gladiator will never sell like a Taco or Ranger. Itās too compromised for appliance buyers.
This was a great spot especially when you learn of how hard it is to pitch to Bill Murray. But Chrysler has killed it with ads for a long time now. Bob Lutz driving a ZJ Grand Cherokee up the steps of Cobo in Detroit, releasing like a hundred head of cattle for the Ram unveiling in 2009, the God...
The minuscule savings isn't worth the added complexity to me, especially from a company who is kinda bad at complex stuff. This is the same as stop/start in that regard and I know neither of us will change our thoughts on cumulative savings so I'll leave that alone.
However, any harm from gear...
If you have the switches they can be programmed to be switched or constant but you also have dedicated constant and switched power independent of the 4 buttons in the same under dash harness. Those are what I used to power my dash cam. No need to go under hood. The 4 switches have wiring under...
It does not have the disconnecting sway bar. Axle disconnect is just the trash they use to keep the front driveshaft from spinning in 2wd to save fuel in theory. They took it off most Gladiators a few years back.
F-150 Raptor
The Bison ZR2 Colorado/Canyon
The Rubicon on the Wrangler has a 35 option
I believe the F-250 Tremor
I'm sure there are more that I'm forgetting/unaware of.
The refund posted oddly enough not long after my post. It was for the engine skid they sell which is like $430 so $20-something seemed worth chasing. I missed in the details that they don't recommend re-installing the t-case skid when you install their engine skid so I guess I'm committed to...
If you go to General and then CarPlay on your phone, do you see the Jeep listed? It will probably say UConnect. I'd delete this if you have not tried already and delete the phone from vehicle memory. Re-pair the phone and see if you get a prompt to switch to CarPlay once plugged in. I have a...
This is some aftermarket stuff. Either the fogs have their own app or there is some means of setting color (something like interrupting the 12 volt supply to them to cycle). Chances are the accent light is a 3rd wire tapped into something on the main truck harness. If you cut that off, the halo...
Iāve been chasing the discount reimbursement for weeks now with no results. Not impressed. When I had my JK the response from these folks on that forum was super fast. Theyāre not the company they once were.
My 2024 makes a sound in reverse similar to older manuals- almost like the whine of a straight cut gear. Done it since new, close to 7k on it now and it hasn't broke yet. haha
I wonāt miss it. I turn it off on mine every day. Iāve driven brands that do it better where I might actually be inclined to leave it on but Jeep isnāt one. My Gladiator and probably a dozen or more rental JLs and Grand Cherokees. All the same. Too slow and too rough. It doesnāt provide...
Magnusson-Moss does not apply to extended warranties which are technically service contracts in the eyes of the law. They can approve or deny coverage at their discretion.
Not a lot of dunes in New Hampshire. But $16k off sticker was enough to make the absurdity of a desert truck in the northeast worth it. Besides, itās the nicest riding Gladiator or JL Iāve driven. Haha
Rain has finally stopped so Iāll try to figure out where the other breathers go.
Claims that...
Everything is LED. The backlighting is on one of the two low-amperage switches which is good for 15A from the factory. Since the backlighting of the fogs is practically nothing, I can easily add the second backlight from the KCs to it. The KCs main circuit will need one of the higher amperage...
No. The Diode Dynamics lights plug into the fog lamps for the main power so when I want the fogs, I use the factory button like always. When they're off, #4 turns on the dim backlight feature. If you were using something that did not tie into the fog lamp wiring, you'd need to use two of the...
