  1. Sold: WTB: Overland running boads (plastic ones) in PA

    Looking for a set of the plastic running boards with step. In Western PA.
  2. Loose Steering?

    I'm 100% sure my dealer did not check alignment or the torque on steering components. They are convinced that "that's just how all Jeeps are the drive terrible." yes my dealer is telling me that the new Jeep I just purchased just drives like crap. Funny I didn't see that in the brochure I...
  3. Loose Steering?

    Got a call from the dealer already. Checked everything and found 1 problem. Tires were at 32psi cold, so they inflated those back up to 37psi. Said it drives like it should. Waiting on FCA at this point. The one I test drove did NOT do that. Truck will sit at that dealer either until it's...
  4. Loose Steering?

    Do that with a #2500 trailer on a highway with a jersey barrier on one side and a semi on the other. White knuckle does not even begin to describe how I felt on that trip. Ended up pulling over and calling the wife to bring my other truck to get the trailer home. It's kind of like death...
  5. Loose Steering?

    Understood...and yes...it's new. Also the last thing I wanted was for the problem to continue and then start being told "someone" was messing with the steering and we aren't warrantying it. So yes, to your point I just plunked down a pretty large sum of $ on a vehicle. Expectation is that it...
  6. Loose Steering?

    I looked quickly and yes it seems to me the play is in the steering box/pitman arm. The sector shaft itself has more play in it than I think it should compared to my Jeeps of the past. I also agree if it's mechanical play/slop/looseness then the dealer should easily be able to diagnose and fix...
  7. Loose Steering?

    So far not awesome. Dropped the Jeep off tonight at the dealer. Explained the problem and immidiately the guy at the service desk says. "That's just how they are, they all do that. All Jeeps drive like tanks and bricks." I calmly said I have owned MANY Jeeps including CJs, TJs, JKs and have...
  8. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    You might want to get a hold of JCR and let them know what happened. Many MFGs like to know when their products fail and they may want to update the design. It wouldn't hurt to call.
  9. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Yet you are on a Gladiator forum to bash the Gladiator because you don't like it..... I'm pretty sure that's the Webster's definition of "Attention Whore". Your's truly, Metro-Sexual
  10. BRIGHT WHITE Gladiator JT Club

    which wheels are those? Looks like the tires still stay under the flares with them (which I need and like)
  11. Loose Steering?

    you won't catch me towing with my Gladiator on a highway with barriers. Between that and a semi it's downright dangerous. Hopefully mine gets fixed this week. taking it in tomorrow.
  12. Loose Steering?

    at 2:05 in this video (he makes some odd reasons for why it is like this, who knew..it was so the Gladiator doesn't roll) and at 17:22 Two reviews that comment on how poor the Gladiator's steering is on the highway. Doubt a reviewer is going to realize it's not supposed to wander like that...
  13. Loose Steering?

    Agreed. Mine is not OK for sure. Anyone that I have let drive it has commented immediately about how bad it felt. My wife doesn't even want to drive it because of it.
  14. Loose steering-dealers response

    Any update on this? Mine is going in next week.
  15. Loose Steering?

    I think I'd find a different dealer if they can't even adjust your steering wheel. I'm hoping my dealer takes this seriously and fixes the problem. Clearly they don't all do this.
  16. Loose Steering?

    Mine has appt at the dealer next week for the steering. Definitely not right. Way too much play/loose feeling especially at highway speeds. It's all over the road and it probably looks like I'm a drunk driver. I've got an 01 TJ with 37s that is more stable on the highway than this. I've no...
  17. Official Gladiator *SPOTTED* thread

    That's awesome
  18. Manual Transmission Club

    Noticed you are in PA. Does that tire wheel combo pass inspection? I'm wanting the AEV wheels but need to make sure they will keep the 12.5s under the flares. I'm in Erie.
