  1. Max tow with rubicon suspension upgrades?

    I do not have an answer for you but I put max tow rear coils on my Rubicon because the Rubicon rear coils are too soft, even when unloaded. I'm really suprised no one else has complained about it on this forum. My bed is usually empty or nearly so and, even then, I felt like I was driving a very...
  2. For those of you that want a 2 door Gladiator

    This was the Gladiator concept in 2005: Nice, except for all the chrome (unless you're into that). Personally, though, 4 doors is more practical for my use.
  3. Smoked a Moose

    Moose's perspective: I went out for a late night walk beside the highway, hoping to see the northern lights. One of those infernal metal beasts came flying by right as I was going to cross. After it passed, I started across and, wouldn't you know it, another one was coming from the other...
  4. Anyone Using 5W-30 Oil? Tell Me your Opinion/Thoughts

    There are pages and pages of posts on 5W30 vs 0W20. Opinions vary.
  5. 4H Usage Restrictions

    I used to be one of those who went off road all the time but now I prefer not to break stuff. My JT has never been off road other than driving around my farm. Even that I can do in 2wd unless it is muddy or snowy or I am trying to find an excuse to lock it in. I got it as a daily driver small...
  6. ‘TPMS Deactivation” for free

    That clears things up. It is also on page 256 of my 2023 owner's manual.
  7. ‘TPMS Deactivation” for free

    Won't work for me. I have no idea what this "Consumer Information Guide" is or what is on page 12 of it.
  8. Broken Mojave Axle!

    Looking at the diagrams, the knuckles are not included in those part numbers. They are additional parts.
  9. Broken Mojave Axle!

    Looking at these parts online: 68651279AA says it is a 2021-2025 Mojave, Mojave X axle housing. If this is what the collision place says they are going to use, it appears to be the right thing. Looking at the parts diagram it does not include axles, gears, diff cover, and probably some other...
  10. 2023 Rubicon 3.6L oil pump staying in high pressure mode

    What does it say the pressure is at 0 rpm?
  11. Topping off the fluids before a long drive. In regards to what collant…

    It was a lot easier when the only coolant was the green stuff, or straight water. Now I have to buy and store (and label) different coolants for cars/trucks, motorcycles, ATVs, tractor, and so on.
  12. Rear Locker disconnect sensor failure and fix in 4 hours.

    The "suite of sensors" he was talking about was probably just the one sensor. The kit comes with five sensors that are, apparently, all slightly different and you have to use trial and error to determine which one is correct for the axle. The other four do not get used.
  13. Engine longevity testing

    I now see what you mean. I recently had some oil pooling in the valley under the filter. I thought I might have spilled some during the last oil change so I mopped it up and went on my way but it was there again soon after. I couldn't see where it was coming from but I thought about this thread...
  14. Be honest — who else bought a Gladiator and said ‘I’ll keep it stock’… then immediately ordered parts? 😂

    Depends on what you consider to be stock vs mod. Soon after purchase I added running boards to keep the gravel and rocks from taking paint off my hinges. I hadn't planned on doing that. The only other things were the Mopar long control arms, max tow rear springs, and a better steering gear to...
  15. Are the batteries really isolated during ESS stops?

    Did anyone post a wiring diagram? Here is one of the charging system that shows the most about the battery connections.
  16. 12VD from Neg Battery Terminal to Ground

    I guess to be thorough, take the voltage from the engine to the bolt where the ground strap attaches. From all you've said so far, it will be 12V (should be 0V). If it is 12V, it appears to be something with the ground strap or the connections on either end of it. I don't know where the other...
  17. 12VD from Neg Battery Terminal to Ground

    With the battery connected you are getting 12v from the neg post to ground (body, engine) and 0v across the IBS?
  18. 12VD from Neg Battery Terminal to Ground

    With the battery hooked up, 12V (nominal) from negative post to ground means you have a break between the negative post and ground. There is an intelligent battery sensor (IBS) on the negative post. The flow goes through the ground wire, through the sensor, then to the negative post. It could...
  19. 20ft lbs?

    The filter housing doesn't really require a specific torque to keep it from backing off or to stretch a bolt or to create a required mating force, so no need to use a torque wrench except for those people who might overdo it. But several of those other things on your list do require a specific...
  20. I got a ticking noise with only 23,000 mile!!!

    It is BS. It is a prevalent enough problem that it gets brought up a lot in the forums, but it is hard to tell how many people it happens to compared to many of these engines are out there. Still, it has been a known weak spot for years and you would think they would have figured it out and...
