  1. SOLVED: Broke my Gladiator by drilling into wires

    Great news in the fix. Couple of thoughts. Id have to guess the navy likes solder due to the salty environment? I'd guess crimps could corrode easier if compromised? Also, I thought another nice splice I learned about was called a line man's splice. I've used those with good success. A few...
  2. WHO READS OWNERS MANUALS? i GOTS TO KNOW

    I read mine. Day one. And refer back to it as needed. But I'm a little crazy and I don't recommend anyone pay much attention to me.
  3. SOLVED: Broke my Gladiator by drilling into wires

    Yeah, if you use premium quality connectors, of the right size and install them perfectly with the proper tools. This is not the typical way it goes down. Average consumer buys cheap brand connector of the wrong size from home depot and installs them incorrectly with the cheapest crimp tool...
  4. 58qt fridge kill my battery

    It depends on the amp draw at rest, the amp draw at high load, the outside air temperature, the temperature of the contents of the cooler, how often you open it, and the size/condition/age of your battery. If you are targeting how long you can run the cooler and then still be able to start the...
  5. SOLVED: Broke my Gladiator by drilling into wires

    OK, so I'll say this as gentle as I can. And maybe it's the cold and the dark. But I would not expect either of those repairs to yield good results. The new harness is definitely the way to go but if it were me, I'd find a warm garage, proper tools, proper splice products, some adhesive lined...
  6. Dangerous control of my Jeep over the internet

    That was written by a lawyer. Along with a phrase somewhere stating that jeeps are heavy and you shouldn't run people over with one. Vehicles are inherently dangerous so if you buy one and drive over your own foot, FCA is not liable. That sort of stuff. The fact that a CYA paragraph exists...
  7. Dangerous control of my Jeep over the internet

    What is being missed here is that they would need to want to target YOU before they would/could begin the nearly impossible, time consuming, expensive task of engineering a way around numerous safety and security protocols and systems. This would take expertise, money, time, tenacity, among...
  8. Mojave Owners - Any Death Wobble??

    Not trying to be accusatory but as others have said, it seems odd to me ... 1) If this were truly "dangerous and widespread" why would Jeep not want to fix it ? For instance they did a TSB for the steering (which made mine a lot better). And that was not cheap for them to do ... But they...
  9. Mojave Owners - Any Death Wobble??

    There are many thousands of Jeeps on the road and although the death wobble seems to be a thing, it must not be extremely widespread ... There are many many of them where I live and I've not heard of this issue much ... And honestly, if I bought a car/truck MULTIPLE TIMES and each time they...

  11. OEM black lug nuts?

    The ones you want are sold at cj offroad. Same look and size as original but not a million dollars like the mopar ones.
  12. Trail Recon Gladiator

    He does it for the money. And to get free stuff, and to have that be his job. All the posts of people perplexed as to why he installs this or that, or why he overlands and drags modern stuff with him. HE IS NOT OVERLANDING. He is making videos ABOUT overlanding for a wide audience and...
  13. 37's and 4:10 gears

    I don't think you will be happy without regearing. My mojave is stock with 33 inch MT tires and it down shifts on the slightest incline on the highway. It is workable and tolerable with the 33's. And I've heard that 35's behave the same although I can't imagine how. 37's would be a bridge...
  14. Dangerous control of my Jeep over the internet

    It works over the cell network. I believe that they contract with AT&T but I could be wrong about that. In any event, if you live in an area with good cell coverage it tends to work better. I live in northern indiana near the toll road and never have any problems other than it being slow. It...
  15. Oil is a quart low at 2000 miles

    Not clinging per se but definitely still in the top end and flowing back down is possible ... Also, just pointing out that it should also be checked on level ground ... You mentioned pulling it out of the garage and (in my case at least) my sloped driveway would cause a bad oil level reading...
  16. Dangerous control of my Jeep over the internet

    Or, just call them and have it disabled ? That seems easy to me ... Id wonder what you perceive as dangerous though ? It wont stop while in motion, If it is started, it wont drive without the keyfob in the vicinity of the truck ... Unlock ? That could suck Ill admit ... I wouldn't want...
  17. Too much amp, Not enough power...

    I agree with @CrazyCooter in saying that there is more going on here ... Assuming it is connected properly with the correct gauge wire adjusted for length and you are driving at a consistent RPM or course ... Do you have a volt meter that you can monitor while driving to verify consistent...
  18. Too much amp, Not enough power...

    Are you driving or sitting at idle when this happens ?
