I sold my '18 Wrangler and went for '22 Gladiator takign advantage of the upside down used market That Wrangler was also my first Jeep and I loved it, however:
- I have a young kid, add two mid-sized dogs and I'm playing tetris when at Costco
- when I ordered Wrangler I cut some corners on...
That is a really nice setup, my table saw may be heavier, but everything else about your shop blows mine out of the water - from the bandsaw (mine is a 1/3 hp Craftsman that I bought for $20 from ReStore :-D needless to say it's mostly used for making jigs), to ceiling height (mine is in the...
Oh, it does, it does. That big box alone is somewhere around 420 lbs mark. I've been squirreling money, cashbacks and points away for 2 years for this puppy and I went all out - a 230V 3hp model with a 36in table. Here is mid-assembly - the package includes 2 more cast iron wings that are not...
... a bunch of expensive metal that makes a lot of noise and produces wood dust:
Didn't know what size the pallet it would be (assumed the standard 48x40), so using idea of cargo divider from this thread, reinforced the front (flat) piece, and cobbled up a temp flat floor that can take a 48...
So, Tazer must be receiving messages "can you guys do something about honking" from '22 owners, and "I want that honking that '22s have" from '20/'21 owners. I'm waiting for their customer service to go "why don't y'all just swap?" On a more serious note - that type of feedback implies it should...
I wired a dashcam (BlackVue 750 with a second cam) on my 2018 JLU which had a parking mode, so was pulling some electron juice directly from battery even with ignition off. It even had an anti-drain feature (the cam would shut itself down if battery voltage drops below preset level). It could be...
Yup, I was about to post - I got a message from the dealer saying that's a new feature on '22s and cant' be disabled.
Here is the said quote - so to my mind, the solution is to leave the door open. This also explains why it didn't chirp at me sometimes - I definitely closed the door when I...
Shout out to Quadratec - I only found out about discount after I already placed an order for a winch. Contacted Rob Windle ([email protected]) asking if there was any chance to get a discount. Few hours later he responded that he'll get me a 5% refund and will mark my account for forum...
nice... mystery solved. negative karma points to whoever built this using a switch like that.
Having said that, given the choice between having a Gladiator with an Autozone switch and not having Gladiator - I'd choose the former.
Last I checked on Jeep's EU sites, only some countries even had a...
So, I have a dumb question about automatic transmission (in the context of my Gladiator) - Is it possible to move a car with auto transmission w/o turning on the engine? With manual, kick into neutral, release the parking brake, and off we go.
don't judge - ever since I got my drivers license...
I bought FLIR ONE (current generation is $200) when I bought a house that was built in 1975 - I used the thermal to identify places to fix where the cold air was coming in - I think it probably paid for itself in 2 winters.
UPDATE: Well, this morning it was a balmy 10F outside, so I drove for a few minutes and took a thermal image - 39C/102F. Interestingly, it felt really warm (so maybe it was all about the perception). Tomorrow it should be much warmer (40-ies), so I'll try to take another one to see if there is...
Plot thickens...
Stopped on the way home, switched to Park, pulled parking brake, walked out - not a single honk. Yay, found the cause!
Drove to a store, parked, pulled parking brake, walked out - didn't even make 2nd step - "honk, honk"
WTF...
