  1. Oil Shortage ???

    Those other manufacturer approvals don't mean anything. Just because one oil may share all but the MS-12991 spec with another doesn't automatically mean that it's good enough. You may as well just compare the SN spec, which Rotella and Castrol both meet.
  2. Oil Shortage ???

    By that argument, you can just throw Rotella in it.
  3. Oil Shortage ???

    Where do you see that Castrol meets MS-12991 spec?
  4. I Suck!

    I'm still not following--did you strap over the bed rails or something?
  5. First towing experience this weekend

    He's got a diesel in his signature. 38s on the diesel without a regear is probably similar to 35s on the gasser without a regear.
  6. Anyone know what this part is?

    What’s the reasoning for them to have the res come off in a 90 anyways?
  7. Anyone know what this part is?

    Interesting, I've thought about upgrading to better shocks, but didn't know they made a specific kit for just the EcoDiesel.
  8. Private Cash Bonus Offer - A Bad April Fools Joke in September?

    I received one of these via email back in June, and it doesn't exclude Rubicon models, but it's only for $1750:
  9. (Solved) Dealer Deposit Refund on Botched Order

    Dealers in the NE area seem to suck in general. I just negotiated with Central Jeep in Raynham, and was able to get a decent discount. Everywhere else will tell you to pound sand.
  10. My first mod

    I always just find the button for the key to flip out, then go down from there to find the unlock button. I can feel the transition between the three...
  11. Massachusetts EcoDiesel Rubicon + Willys Suspension, Mopar 2" Crate

    Do you have the 3.6 or the 3.0 diesel? If the gasser, it’ll give you more lift, but you’ll run into rubbing issues if you go 35s and keep stock wheels.
  12. Draining water from separator ONLY when warned?

    The owner's manual mentions every 10,000 miles to drain it. FWIW, I haven't drained mine, nor has my SO's father who has a Gen 2 with over 100,000 miles.
  13. Flush Mount Tail Lights

    My vote is for Sport
  14. Swapped my Mopar 2" Lift Kit Fox Shocks for Falcons 2.1 SP2s

    I've got the Mopar 2" currently and I feel like I bounce around too much. I see a set on FB for $500, but they're for the 0-1.5" lift, so I'd have to get shock extenders. Do you think this would provide a better on-road ride than what I currently have? My JT is a pavement queen, so I'd like to...
  15. High mileage diesels?

    I've got ~23,000mi on my EcoDiesel. Drove it cross country which put on about 10,000mi more than where I would normally. So far, I've had the right rear axle replaced (common issue across all models of Gladiator) and an error for the charging system has been nagging me in Uconnect. Thought I...
  16. Charging System Error Message

    There's a post somewhere outlining some threshold that needs to get set properly via an ECU update. I don't think it actually causes any drivability issues, but probably wouldn't hurt.
  17. Rubicon Diesel MPG.... at what speed?

    All of my numbers were based on the computer, so it's probably a little worse if I were to hand calculate. I'm in MA so it's pretty hilly where I am. I had been running Hotshots but got sick of it leaking out of the bottle in the cab, so I stopped. Didn't really notice a difference one way or...
  18. Rubicon Diesel MPG.... at what speed?

    Yep, they were swapped--I was the one that installed it :) Didn't happen right away--only after about 10,000 miles going cross country towing a camper. Not sure if I prematurely wore out a component--I've heard that other folks have had their tie rods fail early. I've never seen 30 MPG doing...
  19. Rubicon Diesel MPG.... at what speed?

    After installing 35s and Mopar 2" lift in mine, I hardly noticed a hit to the power or MPGs... YMMV of course, but I would go for it. Now I'm just dealing with some death wobble... lol
