Anyone else have a random pulsing noise coming from the right front? Through the process of elimination I have rotated the tires, put in all transfer case settings, engaged lockers, sway bar on and off, traction control on/off. The problem still exists. This noise occurs at random times and for...
I have two points I want to make here that are specific to this thread.
1. The Gladiator in the pic appears to be a flop from my both my experience and observation. If you look at the picture there appears to be some sort of a rock or other obstacle to the right of the Jeep. My guess is the...
When you wheel at a higher level it is easier for opportunity to meet reality. If you think there result of the flop is driver error, then you probably haven't rock crawled much if at all. There is a huge difference in driving a scenic trail with a few minor obstacles than driving a trail that...
I flopped my TJ doing less than 1 mph. Trying to get up a rock off camber. It is not at all impossible to lay it on its side at a slow speed. Happens quite a bit here in Colorado.
It's an old Rotary lift from the 80's. They don't make them anymore. I love it though. It's a complete game changer for me. I do some mild builds for people, and not having to pull the axle out to do gears or install a locker is really nice. Everything about it is nice.
I was trying to be facetious lol. I added an emoji that didn't show up with the post. Oh well.
Just for perspective, mount Mitchell in the Appalachians is just over 6,000 feet. Our Rocky mountains top out at over 14,000 feet. Paved roads here go over 10,000 feet and some of the trails I've...
I'm on 35's with the 4:10's and getting 14-15 mpg as well. I haven't looked at the tranny specs in detail yet so I can't give an form answer on what gears to go with. If I were changing mine out right now, I'd be going 4:56 and possibly deeper if I anticipated moving to 37's. Just my .02
So it matters for 40's but not 37's? The point is that it does in fact matter to some degree based on tire size. You don't think it's needed, whereas I think it does. Is it worth the money? Like I said before, only the owner can answer that.

There's mountains in North Carolina?
I live south of Denver at 6300 feet. Driving to 10,000 feet can be a challenge if under geared. I don't mean that you won't make it but feeling the constant shifting of gears gets annoying real quick. In my TJ on 35's and geared at 4:88 I still find myself...
