  1. Brake Lock Differential vs Dana TrueTrac Limited Slip Differential

    @GuzziMoto, thank you. I didn't realize that the limited slip was other than a Dana unit. I will probably take your suggestion.
  2. Brake-lock differential deserves more credit.

    2021 Jeep Gladiator Willys. I can confirm that BLD is still enabled in 4WD Low.
  3. Brake Lock Differential vs Dana TrueTrac Limited Slip Differential

    I have a 2021 Jeep Gladiator, Dana M210 front axle. The rear axle already has a limited slip differential. The front diff is currently open. The Gladiator does have Jeep's Brake Lock Differential system which I have seen/felt work. Does the Dana TrueTrac Limited Slip Differential provide...
  4. Eaton/Detroit TrueTrac instead of locker?

    I'm saving up for the Eaton Truetrak for my '21 Gladiator. Once the budget is in place, I may look at TORQ Locker. However, for the kind of off-roading that I enjoy, TrueTrak has worked well for me in the past.
  5. American Adventure Labs Gladiator Rear Fender Inner Liner Installation

    Complete description installing the American Adventure Labs rear inner fender.
  6. OBDII Modules

    You were correct. Apparently, I did something that disconnected the shifter and then powered up the CAN bus. This is what caused the shifter to get locked out. I did not intentionally touch the connectors on the shifter but it is probable that I bumped them trying to get the center console out...
  7. OBDII Modules

    I've been digging into it today, after finding your comment here. I appreciate having knowledgeable old goats like you around. Thanks.
  8. OBDII Modules

    I suspected that removing the center console was a dash 10 level operation and that I should not have CAN bus issues. Good to have that confirmed. Still would like to learn how to address the issue I had this time.
  9. OBDII Modules

    There are some additional details that were left out for brevity. Once I talk to the tech, I will share any relevant details that I left out. I agree that I did something that caused the problem. Just not sure what yet. The dealer service dept that I use has been very good, very knowledgeable...
  10. OBDII Modules

    Has anyone used AlfaODB and ODBLinkMX+ to perform the Proxi Alignment process on a 2020 or newer Gladiator? I currently have an ODBLinkLX. The dealer performed the Proxi Alignment this time but I may need to remove the center console again in the future and I am trying to make sure I can do the...
  11. Safe to Run Without Inner-Fender Liner?

    After seeing the collection of dried mud and dirt behind the rear stock fender liner, I'm not convinced that they do anything beyond appearance. I have a friend that has been driving his Gladiator for over three years, on-road and off, with no liners front or rear. He has not had any issues yet...
  12. Anyone break the rear glass on a hardtop yet?

    This happened to my truck yesterday. Something got between the rear seat head rest and the window. We went over a pretty signicant bump. There was a loud crack sound and both of Army veterans in the truck were pretty sure we were taking fire. "See any bullet holes?" "Where's the shooter!!"...
  13. HOTHEADS headliner review

    At this point, based on your experience can you recommend Hothead Headliners? Thanks in advance. Smittie
  14. Convert the center console USB-A to a USB-C?

    I use the USB port in the center console to connect my Pixel 5 Android (Android 1`1) to Android Auto almost exclusively. I have also used the USB port in the console to plug in a thumb drive and play audio files.
  15. Put my Gladiator on the scales

    MIne is fairly stock. 5000 lbs on the nose. 5180 lbs with my 180 lbs son in the passenger seat.
  16. AM/FM Antenna Delete - Moving From Exterior to Interior

    I am looking to mount another antenna in that general location using Rugged Radio's passenger side NMO mount. Given that I pretty much NEVER listen to AM or FM radio, that antenna is entirely superfluous. I am planning to use this replacement and run it out under the hood...
  17. What are the "MUST HAVE" mods after buying your Gladiator? ($5,000 starting budget)

    It depends a lot on what your uses will be. I have a Willys model. I am replacing front and rear bumpers with solid steel. Mounting a winch for self-recovery. Putting in two radios (GMRS and CB) because the crowd I run with is a mix. Molle panels in the bed to serve as tie down for gear and to...
  18. How do Gladiators handle on the highway?

    I drive 400 to 600 miles across Montana on a regular basis. I recently drove from SW Montana to Fort Bragg, NC. I own a 2021 Willys Gladiator. On the trip to NC I drove 14 hours straight two days in a row. The vehicle does 80 mph comfortably but gets slightly better gas milage in the low 70's...
  19. What did you HAUL in your JT today?

    Trailer and truck weighed in at 7400 lbs, towed 400 miles across Montana. No issues, no problems, no struggles.
  20. If you could do it again... Gas or Diesel?

    And they do not like cold weather.
