  1. Question about switching Gladiator mopar lift and headlights

    Not worth the trouble and expense.
  2. The "Mopar lift" - an honest curiosity...

    We have five ‘21 Gladiator Sport Max Tows converted to Jeep Tour service here and in Moab running this lift with the Fox shocks. The kits have performed perfectly. We now have four tour seasons in the books using this kit. The only issues we had were related to install mistakes on the part of...
  3. Just got the latest in Winch technology

    I think that depends upon where you live & wheel. I live in the Jeep Heaven of SW Colorado and venture into SE Utah regularly. In the last twenty nine years of active wheeling I’ve pulled cable once to get my Jeep out of trouble. I’ve used the winch to clear downed aspen a few times. We...
  4. Northridge 4x4

    Northridge is the first outfit I turn to when needing stuff. Been doing so for 15 years, never an issue.
  5. Left-Foot Braking And BLD (Brake Lock Differential)

    You can see pretty clearly in the last video with the ‘07 JK XUR how BLD worked on the first gen JKs. It does work, sorta. Later gen JKs BLD is more aggressive. I remember early on with my ‘09 JKUR remarking how rarely I was using the lockers, took me awhile to understand the BLD was engaging...
  6. 23 Gladiator Rubicon Build

    Nive JT! I did the TF 1.5" kit on my '23 Willys last year. Mine's strictly a pavcement princess, I have a built JK for trails. I thought the stock stock stance on the Willys looked like stink bug in heat. FWIW, to get the caster dialed back in after the spacer lift I add the Mopar 2" lift front...
  7. Adjusting Trackbar to Center Rear Axle

    Don't measure from points on the body, measure from points on the frame. Th body nac be off quite a bit side to side. It's the axles' alignment side to side under the frame that matters. Make sure not to measure lettering, etc. on the tires one side vs the other. Using the mold line on the...
  8. Dead Battery

    Replace both batteries at the same time, just as you’d do with any battery powered item, flashlight, etc. This is a BS system but it is what it is. No way to cut corners on it without a short term fail on the opposite battery. I just replaced the main battery and disabled the little one on one...
  9. Thank you Jeep.

    Glad you are all OK. Moose hits are like hitting a 1 ton truck. Shiras Moose were introduced to Colorado in the late 70s. Supposed to be the smallest of all moose species, but they are still enormous. Males can exceed 1,000 pounds. Hitting one while in the wrong vehicle could be catastrophic.
  10. Long Arm Brand Selection

    Cost / benefit, loss of clearance (you'll smack them on ledges, rocks, etc.).
  11. Photo Request: 2 inch lift w/ 33inch tires

    We have five ‘21’ Max Tow Spirts in tour service with Mopar 2” lifts and 285/70-17” Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Have been great performers.
  12. Oil Pressure (Too high?)

    Lots of moving parts inside modern engines. I was remarking to a friend the other day that your garden variety engine today is a complex as a Formula One engine thirty years ago. DOHC designs are the norm, electronically controlled variable valve timing, 4 valve heads, alloy block & heads, cross...
  13. GWS Gladiator, and Wrangler sales. Looks like it may be a rough road ahead.

    Take a look at the list prices and you'll find the problem. Does that take a genius "turnaround specialist" at the top of the organization to figure out?
  14. 295/70/17 or 285/75/17 on stock wheels/Sport S?

    285/70 - 17, same size as Rubicon.
  15. 295/70/17 or 285/75/17 on stock wheels/Sport S?

    I have a ‘23 Willys, replaced the stock BFG KM2 255s with 285s the day after I bought it. On the stock 17” rims, no rubbing or other issues whatsoever. I will add that I installed the Teraflex 1.5” leveling kit and the longer Mopar front control arms to eliminate the excessive rake and level the...
  16. Red Rock 4-Wheelers Trail of the Month September 2024 – 7 Mile Rim

    My overall favorite Moab trail. Done it many times at EJS and with local friends.
  17. #30B IPC Recall as of Sept 5 2024

    I'm not thrilled with the prospect of some poor dealer tech on flat rate ripping my JT's dash apart o replace the damn cluster, and all the associated potential fails.
  18. Aux Battery Delete Attempt Fail

    Assuming everything was reconnected properly my first guess would be a depleted main battery. Get a charger on it for a few hours and see if it fires up. Watching this and a couple other Forums it seems rather consistent that a marginal main battery can cause alternator overcharge, or high...
  19. Wow !! Lawyers now sending advertising letters out for representing against Jeep

    When I was a national customer service exec for a Jeep competitor I had to deal with these characters routinely, particularly in California and Florida. Frankly, if your product is like a planted field of technical corn stalks these farmers will come try to harvest the crop.
  20. What?? The Sun?

    The dopes want to turn Jeep into Land Rover and have been on that track since the days of Daimler (Benz)/Chrysler. They have done so in one respect, the Company is a complete disaster, just like JLR!
