    What’s your milage at?
  2. Leaking Coolant Reservoir? (Always check your fluids!!)

    Ya, that Kevin guy had a flattened O ring that was causing the pressure leak in that connector at the base of the coolant tank. I replaced the tank, cap and connector but unfortunately you can’t just buy the connector. It comes attached to a hose and was about $90 cad for the hose. When I got...
  3. Having some Jeep trouble in the Smokies?

    Ok, you mentioned Smokey mountains and had to ask. The highest point of that is around 4000-6600 ft so thought maybe what’s its used to and “learned” is quite different to where you’re experiencing troubles. Did you have your eye on the temp ratings during the issues? Was there a spike in that...

    What’s the elevation at compared to where you live and normally drive?
  5. Can an extra oil quart cause a seal leak? Here's some facts -

    My new replaced second 3.6 engine had 12L when picked up at the dealership. Drove 1567 kms (973 miles) to BC from Alberta, summiting at least 4-5 mountain passes there and back. I left Calgary on the Friday and came back on Sunday. Would hit speeds of 120-130 kms/hour (75-80 mph). Have put on...
  6. Take the truck or the $$money$$ ??

    The only sport I had was my previous truck being the 17 TRD Sport. In the 3 years I had it, I put $11k cad in upgrades and was getting ready to install lockers etc to it …then an elk had to run out and hit me on the highway. Totalled it and made the decision to go into the JTR I have now. Yes...
  7. Take the truck or the $$money$$ ??

    Thanks, removed it. I havent been back to the dealership or tried building one in years and was shocked to see the sport that high. The cash amount to take is what the 3.6 rubicon was worth in 21.
  8. Take the truck or the $$money$$ ??

    In my mailbox was the annual lottery card from our provincial cancer drive and one of the prizes in the automobile winnings is a Gladiator Sport worth over $76k cad. !!!? I remember back in 2021 when I was test driving the 3.6 gladiator Rubicon and the 3.0 diesel, the diesel model was $76k cad...
  9. 21 Gladiator Rubicon stalling issues no codes showing

    Codes or no codes? Your title and comment say two different things. Manual or automatic? If there’s no codes, it doesn’t mean there isnt one hiding. A good diagnostic tool would see it. If there is a code, what is it? Im guessing electrical. Could you start it once it stalled? Does it keep...
  10. Loud ticking when engine running

    Our pumps in Canada say, at the gas pumps (87 clean), (89 cleaner), 92+ cleanest). It SHOULD say, (87 really dirty), (89 less dirty), (92+ least of the dirty). But between you and me, I think the numbers mean the burning speed of the octane from slow to fast or maybe it’s fast to slow...

  14. Need your help regarding balancing 35 inches tires

    In post #6 above, I mentioned the regular balancing problems I was having for my K03’s and what needed to happen to fix it.
  15. Ouch

    Glad you’re ok! What a horrible surprise to be thrown into. Can’t police check her phone/text history to determine if she was texting? In Canada, we have 3rd party liability, uninsured party fault coverage. Not sure what I pay for that but we too have people driving around without insurance...
  16. Need your help regarding balancing 35 inches tires

    Are you able to “road force” balance? That’s next level if regular balancing won’t work. In my case, I installed 4 + spare 315/70/17 KO3’s and the tire shop did the balance. I went back to have them done again. I still wasn’t happy and went to the dealership to have the road force balance done...
  17. Is my thinking right here with what my issue is?

    I see we posted at the same time. It’s the Z fuse. Hopefully your dealership will have that one. (Get two)
  18. Is my thinking right here with what my issue is?

    No power can either be wrong ground cable is separated and taped up. Another reason can also be the high amp Z fuse array that’s located on the very outside end (drivers side of fuse box) Are you familiar with this fuse?
