  1. JT vs JL ride quality

    Oh wow, you've got some higher-end Fox shocks. The ones on my Ram 1500 are $230 each. You can see why those would be nearly as expensive to rebuild than to replace with new.
  2. Jeep Wrangler Scrambler teased ... Uh Huh, we'll see

    I still have my hopes. Stellantis did say they are investing back into diesel again. It was referenced for the European market, but I hope one makes it way to the U.S.
  3. JT vs JL ride quality

    In some cases, I've heard that the rebuilds aren't much cheaper than buying new.
  4. JT vs JL ride quality

    That's good to hear. I wouldn't mind a .05" lift if the coils are high quality. Are you running stock shocks or did you go aftermarket? Having both the Mopar and RedArc trailer brake controllers, I'd choose the RedArc. Not that's it's any better, just based on the mounting options and...
  5. JT vs JL ride quality

    Even in the Ram 1500, Fox has a different coilover (higher spring rate) for the EcoDiesel vs the Hemi/Pentastar.
  6. JT vs JL ride quality

    Did you go back with Mopar or did you buy directly from Tenneco (Rancho)? Oh, very nice. I'm a Mopar fanboy, but I think Ford did a good job on their Ranger Raptor. Yeah, the Fox rebuilds aren't cheap. I'm about to install Fox coilovers on our 2015 Ram EcoDiesel. My plan is to replace the...
  7. Jeep Wrangler Scrambler teased ... Uh Huh, we'll see

    I just hope a diesel makes its way into a few of these platforms.
  8. JT vs JL ride quality

    We'll keep the diesel Gladiator stock, at least for the next 15 years. Our property is located next to a national forest, so we do a lot of driving on forest roads, BLM roads, BIA roads, etc. For the most part, a stock Rubicon does everything we want it to do, which is to get us to and from...
  9. Odyssey Battery Warning

    Well, I can't argue. I like my Firecracker Red.
  10. JT vs JL ride quality

    Everyone and their dogs rave about the Mojave ride. How good is the Mojave ride? Well, if you put a Mojave and Rubicon side by side, every dog that's ridden in a Mojave would go to the Mojave. ;) The EcoDiesel wasn't offered in the Mojave, so I ended up with the Rubicon. I'm a little...
  11. FRAM and Champion Labs Affected by First Brands Bankruptcy

    Here's my current oil filter inventory for our 2015 Ram EcoDiesel. For those who don't know, Fram's Ultra Synthetic is the best oil filter on the market for the 2nd Gen EcoDiesel. It's rated for 25,000 miles, has excellent flow characteristics, low micron rating, and has 17.5 grams of...

    Firecracker Red?
  13. Odyssey Battery Warning

    You will love it. Smart chargers do all the work for you. All you have to do is plug it in!
  14. Odyssey Battery Warning

    I agree with you, however, if the factory batteries are maintained, then they shouldn't fail prematurely. My 2023 Gladiator EcoDiesel has 7,000 miles on it. It rarely gets driven. And when it does get driven, it goes the distance. Otherwise, it sits for 3 - 6 weeks at a time. You...
  15. Odyssey Battery Warning

    I went out to the garage and took this picture. As you can see, there is an Odyssey calibration. This particular charger/maintainer/desulfator is connected to the OE batteries in the Jeep Gladiator EcoDiesel, so it's currently set for the standard AGM. Obviously, I'll switch to the Odyssey...
  16. Odyssey Battery Warning

    I realize I'm in the minority, but my plan is to replace the factory main and auxiliary battery with Odyssey when they are 6 years old (assuming they last that long). I don't use the start/stop feature, but Jeep designed the dual battery system to act as a single unit. The auxiliary battery...
  17. First trip with the diesel gladiator

    If possible, could you post a link for the wireless thermometer?
  18. Odyssey Battery Warning

    Are you sure about that? Everything I see shows that EnerSys has owned Odyssey since 2002 (24 years).
