  1. Trouble shooting start stop

    YES! I go nuts watching these videos and listening to the presenters jabber on endlessly, then doing their "like & subscribe" pitch, instead of getting to the point. Few are good videographers, or professional presenters, but they can have very valuable information to pass on. Youtubers, GET TO...
  2. lifts

    Instead of drop brackets Mopar kit has longer front lower control arms. Mopar also has Bilstein shocks now, as does AEV. From experience Bilsteins 5100s like AEV uses aren't my favorites. I don;t know exactly what Bilsteins Mopar has now other than that they are reservoirs. We have five 2021...
  3. Learning about lift kit questions and comparing

    Lots of good advice here so I'll try not to be redundant. From experience both with my own Jeeps and watching fellow Jeepers & club members I will add this: You Get What You Pay For. Cheap lifts are cheap for a lot of reasons, but the most common factors are incomplete parts content (missing...
  4. Replaced Main Battery Yesterday

    Really should replace both batteries. An old aux battery combined with a new main battery is a future problem lurking. JMHO, the shop saw what was going to be involved in replacing the aux battery and punted.
  5. 38 options

    A BFG KM3 in 39" will get you close to a true 38".
  6. When does it stop?

    My signature on most Jeep sites is "Jeeps: Where my 401(k) went to die"
  7. Trying 37's

    I learned from experience, if reprogrammed for the correct tire size there was little performance difference between 35s and 37s on highway, and a significant improvement on the trail. I had already regeared when I bumped the tires from 35 to 37. A Gladiator with the 8 speed and 4:10s will do...
  8. Gladiator sales down 22% in 4Q, 29% overall in 2023

    Price it wrong and it won't sell.
  9. Tires are ugly brown!

    Simple Green, 50/50 solution. Spray, let soak a few minutes, rinse off.
  10. My first lift, teraflex or aev?

    Look at the Mopar 2" kit, too.
  11. Received the wrong version MOPAR lift. What do?

    Yes to both. We had the local dealer install all five, with mixed results where the front sway bar links are concerned. I'm not sure how that can get screwed up, but we had front link fails on two of the JTs. In one case they had been installed on the wrong side of the sway bar arms and and axle...
  12. Received the wrong version MOPAR lift. What do?

    Leave it and enjoy it, the Fox shocks are awesome. We have five Gladiators in Jeep tour service with the 2" Mopar lifts and Fox resis. They've held up incredibly well. Daily they are carrying full loads of our guests (up to nine passenger + driver) and the seating cages we had made for them. I'm...
  13. Colorado springs, denver area shop to do gears

    See Dave O. at 4 Wheel Parts in Denver. An absolute ace.
  14. Gladiator sales down 22% in 4Q, 29% overall in 2023

    Get big corporate ego, overproduce 'em, then overprice 'em 'cuz you think the rubes are flush and stupid. Watch 'em grow roots on dealer lots. Rather than rake in profits from the pricing, instead pour millions into dealer & customer incentives. Do like all loser brands, feed the "dealer...
  15. Tires are ugly brown!

    Simple Green at about a 50/50 solution.
  16. What's In Your 2023 Rearview?

    Late 2023 Jeep and my local dealer started massive discounts on my favorite current Jeep, the JT Gladiator. Since I have a JK built for the trails I just wanted a fun daily driver. A Willys Sport fit the bill, and barely fits in the garage next to the JK. Super fun daily driver with the thought...
  17. Scratched Hard Top

    I've used the Mopar hardtop touch-up spray with good results. It will blend right in. It doesn't have texture, you have to first apply something like a spray undercoat to put the texture back. That gets tricky because the amount they have varies. You just have to get a few different ones and use...
  18. 1.5 level kit is wandering

    I had the same experience with the 1.5” kit. I added the longer Mopar control arms and the issue was corrected. Cheap & easy.
  19. Jeep cares and overall horrible experience

    Having run customer service operations for a Jeep competitor, all the research says you do your company a big negative when you "over promise and under deliver" like has been done to the OP. Stellantis saying "Jeep Cares" and then really not giving a rat's @$$ is pretty bush league. OTOH, Jeep...
