  1. Lights on but engine doesn’t start/turn over - single click then restarts

    With that voltage, that battery is dead, dead, dead, perhaps forever. You can put a charger on it overnight to see if it will take a charge, or get new battery. Connecting a jumper battery, or another car to it for 10 min is not enough to do anything. Maybe if you can get it started, you could...
  2. DIY Midland radio mount

    Do you know how many amps that radio pulls? I wasn't sure the cigarette plug power would support. They will handle a cb without problem (there only 4 watts), but don't know if these higher power gmrs radios need more amps. I don't have a gmrs radio in my jeep, but do have a 50 watt 2 meter ham...
  3. Propane usage - expectations vs realities

    I use a dual fuel Coleman stove for all my cooking. Had it over a decade now. Works great and I always have gas cans with me. I wonder if one could rig up a water heater using one of those diesel camp heaters that are so popular these days.
  4. Pricing on a leftover 2022

    Thats probably abt 10k less than a new 23 diesel sport s. I'd do some checking of new prices of diesel glads, then figure out if its a good deal or not. Off the top of my head, I think it would be tough to find a cheaper diesel with practically no miles on it. Yes, its a 22, but still new and...
  5. Long term storage

    I would just disconnect the batteries, both of them.
  6. Just Ordered? Check in HERE!

    I received an email this morning that my diesel glad Rubicon is now in production. Order confirmed- Aug 24 Scheduled- Sep 8 In production- Nov 8
  7. Tire volume calculations

    I think the easiest way to test is to take one of those 6 gal pancake compressors ( I'm sure you know someone with one) and air it up the tank, unplug it, and see if it will air up your deflated tire. At least you will have an idea where your at on this whole idea. Or, you could take your big...
  8. Regearing, where does the power come from?

    Ok, I've heard many say they regeared after getting bigger tires to get its drive ability back and are very happy with the results. They say that the power is back and is similar to stock. Ok, now to my questions for all the engineers and high thinkers out there. A stock gladiator can run a...
  9. Suicide Knob or Brody (Brodie) Knob

    I used to see truckers use these back in the 70s on their big trucks.
  10. Suicide Knob or Brody (Brodie) Knob

    Cool retro idea, send pics when you do it.
  11. Retro Gladiator build, my modern take on the Old Honcho

    Wow, very cool. Looking forward to see your progress.
  12. Doing my HPFP recall today

    Creepy Jeepy, thats not cool man, since he is a diesel tech at a dealership, of course he has the opportunity to order the pump first out of the gate. I'm sure you have first dibs on things in your sector of business. Besides, I would want my diesel tech to have installed a few of these before...
  13. Some Of Jeep's Best Customers Simply Can't Afford A Jeep Anymore

    Census.gov https://www.census.gov/library/publications/2023/demo/p60-279.html says that the "Real median household income was $74,580 in 2022". But I doubt that households that are buying a 60k vehicle are earning 75k a year. I would venture a guess that households that are buying a 60k vehicle...
  14. Rust at 1800 Miles

    As others have said, this is normal. Any bare metal will surface rust, don't sweat it. Crawl under any vehicle and you will see this.
  15. What would you do

    I'd wait for the fix to happen and try and buy a brand new 23. If that happens to work out, great, if not you can always buy a used one. From my reading here on the forum, somewhere between 1-4% of the high pressure pumps have failed. I'm willing to take that chance and I have a new diesel on...
  16. FCA Reports Q3 2023 US Sales, Including Jeep Gladiator Sales

    They sold 4 Dodge Darts last year? Wow.
  17. Aftermarket LED Fogs on OEM Incandescent Package

    Thanks for that knowledge. I'm guess if it was drawing MORE amperage that would be cause for concern, but less shouldnt hurt anything. Of course, I'm just an old school guy that doesn't understand or comprehend why these new vehicles have to computerize everything, and it does seem like...
  18. Aftermarket LED Fogs on OEM Incandescent Package

    I wonder what that setting actually does. Seems 12v should be 12v.
  19. Anyone use a Cargo Carrier Hitch Basket?

    I have one of these that I bought at Harbor Freight years and years ago. Works great and is aluminum so its light. I have a front hitch on my JK and leave it on pretty much all the time.
  20. Can somebody help me understand Antennas?

    I think you need to try the below before you do anything that costs money. Find someone with a mobile radio mounted in their vehicle and then you and he try some radio range tests, he can sit wherever he is and you drive around town, or down the highway or whatever and actually see how it works...
