  1. If you had to start your build over, what's the first mod you'd grab?

    For me I would say mudflaps right away. My door hinges are destroyed. Then Undercoating as I live in NE. Then waterproof seat covers, then again I bring dogs and kids home from the beach for half the year.
  2. Replaced Shocks… Still rides the same.

    Almost 7 years and 50k miles. Shocks were a bit rusty, shaft shroud fell off one and front tires started to wear odd. So I ordered stock height Bilstein replacements. I swapped them out and noticed my old fronts did not rebound at all but did have some tension in both directions but remained...
  3. Dreaded Pentastar "tick" (maybe) - cost to repair?

    It happened to me passenger side bank. Shortly after I was out of warranty. Both cams on passenger side bank and the dealer recommended the head as well as there was some observable marks on that. Tech thought it would “probably” be ok but saw something enough to question it. One of those in for...
  4. Overhead rifle/shotgun storage solution? Not a rack...

    Check EBay for old cruiser parts every so often. You might be able to get a Blac Rac mount for $50-$100.
  5. Disappearing Coolant

    This was the inside of the radiator with no UV. I washed it away and it came back after awhile.
  6. Radiator replacement or upgrade

    Truck had passenger side cam and head replaced. Coolant was replaced during that repair. Immediately after there was a slow leak. Thinking rough handling or something else during the repair may have contributed to the issue. Then again the truck is 6 years old. I found a leaking hose and a...
  7. Radiator replacement or upgrade

    Looks like my radiator has a pinhole. It’s been an issue since I had top end repairs. Seeing if it’s covered under previous repairs as the problem started exactly then. OEM radiator or after market if it’s on my dime. any experience with aftermarket radiators? Specifically longevity and...
  8. Are "larger tires" really a fairly recent thing?

    When The JK was just released and they starting joining my ORV club in numbers. the running joke was 35s are the new 33s as they could slap them on with no work. All the TJs, tacos and rangers needed a bit more components or some firewall trimming to run 35s. Now I would say 37s are the new go...

  10. Disappearing Coolant

    A couple months ago Jeep replaced my passenger side head/cams. A weeks ago I noticed my coolant low sent it in… they said no leaks and they overfilled reservoir told me to keep an eye on it. It’s bone dry. So I scheduled another appointment. Took my Olight with the UV setting and found 2 areas...
  11. If you were in Jeep Management, what changes would you make to the Gladiator?

    I didn’t read all the other pages so my post here may be a duplicate. Thinking about achievable and legit factory sensible goals from a non-industry standpoint. As much as I want 1000hp and 40s I wouldn’t be able afford that kit… 1. mirrors or a factory relocation kit that works with the doors...
  12. Engine Tick now needs replaced

    As someone who had the issue 3 months after warranty ended with only 45k. I’d bring it in a month before the warranty ended and tell them you think you hear a tick. Let them determine it is or isn’t lol. mine was very subtle untill it wasn’t…
  13. Engine Tick now needs replaced

    I thought mine was injector noises. So maybe it was doing it longer than I thought. Dealer then added cylinder head to the mix after seeing some damage adding about 1k. In the end Jeep did goodwill most of the cost. Took a few weeks for parts to come in. The holidays did not help.
  14. Engine Tick now needs replaced

    Well my 2020 6spmt with 45k just did it. At dealer they say it’s passenger side needs 2 cams, the works ect. It started very subtle and it was like injector noise. I parked it next to several vehicles at work with the same motor and it was ever so slightly louder. Even under load it was subtle...

  18. New England Online Marketplace Finds

    Nice hardtop. Looks like it’s Color matched to GCM. I’m tempted but I guess I don’t need 3 tops. https://capecod.craigslist.org/pts/d/falmouth-jeep-gladiator-hard-top/7746552588.html
  19. Lunchbox Lockers???

    Lunch box locker will need the pins inside replaced at some point. Depending on miles and abuse. Maybe not in the front Axle with the FAD still functioning.
  20. Door pins, grease lube etc…

    I use Sailkote because I always have a can for the boat. Very popular in marine field because No visible residue at all. It’s dry so it won’t attract dirt, salt ect. If you take your doors off all the time you won’t get grease on your pants on the way to work. I use it on all my boat turning...
