  1. Eco diesel Suspension bottoming out on normal roads

    All that will help a bunch, but caster correction is done with control arms. But with 1” teraflex - daystar I bet you will be just fine and significantly reduce bottom out situations.
  2. Eco diesel Suspension bottoming out on normal roads

    So Those are not extra etc, those are needed for this kit. They are the 1.25" bump stop extensions that come included with the kit. They are there for 2 reasons. #1. The fox shocks in the mopar kit are longer shocks than the stock shocks and have a longer minimum length than stock. The risk...
  3. Eco diesel Suspension bottoming out on normal roads

    I installed the mopar 2” lift on my rubicon diesel, steel bumpers / roof rack. I do not have the bottom out issue like I did before. I would say it’s 95” solved. Now off-road, with sways disconnected I have hit the bumps even with the lift. But it’s so much better than it was before. I am...
  4. Ecodiesel power derating as temps rise?

    I’ve done a bunch, I’ll upload my final one tomorrow!
  5. Eco diesel Suspension bottoming out on normal roads

    Yeah I paid for my lift, and dealt with the install labor on my own. I can say it's work getting it in there, and take your time. But it has solved this bottoming out issue for me, with compromises. FYI I did also pay for an alignment. Caster ended up at 4.4 Left and 4.8 Right. Toe is set in...
  6. Gladiator on fire, burned to the ground…

    Hey Mike! We are curious what ended up happening?! Did your insurance take care of this for you? Did you end up with another jeep?
  7. So disappointed in this Diesel platform; wish there was a return policy.

    So what is that sound then, it's obviously not a coolant pump. I am also being told it's not DEF purge. Is it Some sort of EGR cooling or something?
  8. So disappointed in this Diesel platform; wish there was a return policy.

    When you diesel folks are starting on an incline do you experience 3-4 seconds turbo lag? I live in a neighborhood where when I leave I have to get up to speed due to oncoming traffic, and even if I totally floor it, it takes a few seconds at least to make any power. Flat land it’s not as...
  9. So disappointed in this Diesel platform; wish there was a return policy.

    So the sound after you shut down the eco diesel I thought was the def system purging to prevent freezing ?
  10. Mopar 2" diesel lift kit install help

    100% sure it's the diesel springs and also the isolators. Checked part numbers on everything, and had dealer verify.
  11. Mopar 2" diesel lift kit install help

    Good question! So most of the lateral spring bow (side 2 side) evened out and became a non issue when the vehicle was set on the ground with all the UCA and LCA bolts loose. The springs have a very slight bow outwards (normal) and a slight side bow equal on both sides. I bet you could correct...
  12. Eco diesel Suspension bottoming out on normal roads

    My stock shocks were also super soft. I do think 80% of the issue is the shocks, 10% bump stops and 10% springs. Don’t go flexing that Jeep with the longer shocks… until your coils are in.
  13. Eco diesel Suspension bottoming out on normal roads

    I don't have the bottom out issue with the mopar kit. I mean don't get me wrong, I can get it to bottom out. But it's not violent like it was stock.
  14. Eco diesel Suspension bottoming out on normal roads

    You will not have death wobble on a Gladiator unless you totally mess up the install, and leave most everything loose. Your ball joints, tire rod, etc, are so new... Death wobble is not going to happen with the mopar 2" parts if installed as instructions state. They do have spring bow 'issues'...
  15. Eco diesel Suspension bottoming out on normal roads

    Hey there, there are no markings on the springs besides the product code numbers on them. What springs do you have in what position up front? Thanks!
  16. Eco diesel Suspension bottoming out on normal roads

    Hey I am curious from you other Mopar 2" Diesel lift folks. The instructions were HORRIBLE for what parts go on what side (Springs). The pictures show the jeep (left and right side) and the associated springs. but the diesel column the sides are reversed from the pictures. Seriously Mopar... Do...
  17. Questions on diesel after test drive.

    My feedback is towing in cool temps with the diesel is great. The torque is awesome. But if you tow in high temps, I’d regear the gasser. The Diesel engine is a very complex animal, the more complex, the higher the probability of issues. But I do love mine. Get an obd2 BLE+ adapter, and pull...
  18. Eco diesel Suspension bottoming out on normal roads

    35's for sure! As an update. All components are in. I have a pull to the right, it's not intense, but it's always there. It feels like it's a bit more than typical road crown pulling that solid axles have. I have attempted the following. 1. AEV steering stabilizer priming (but this stab...
