  2. Ran over a bungee cord on the road. 4500 miles

    Nearest tire shop(big O, Discount...). Be prepared to be told its not fixable that close to the sidewall Im pretty sure the warranty doesn't cover tires/road hazards
  3. Mojave shock end cap screws rusted

    They are all gonna be like that... I suggest cleaning it off with some scotchbrite and painting it if it keeps you up at night
  4. Better air filter?

    Best way to remove the moon dust is the aforementioned precleaner. With OEM or better(Wix, purolator) filters Oiled filters are crap. An oily dusty residue coats your IAT sensor and throttle blade and inner surfaces of the intake. Been there done that. Learned that the hard way
  5. Right Knee against 4wd lever?

    I have that problem in a few vehicles. Some piece of trim or another right where my knee rests. Long trips in my wifes honda had me with a small travel pillow for just this issue. Lo and behold the JT with the prized manual Tcase and my knee hits the damn stick. I grabbed a foam can coozie and...
  6. Finally stopped the engine pinging!

    Ive noticed oil in both sides of the PCV. Intake side obviously, but also the fresh air side at the air cleaner end. Took off the air filter housing and saw a small pool of oil beneath the fitting that goes to the crankcase breather. Im gonna try the two catch cans. One on the intake manifold...
  7. Anyone planning on going to the Overland Expo West in Flagstaff?

    Its a must see. Every year its bigger. Amazing stuff there. This was from 2019
  8. Confession

    It was perfectly obvious to me when I first saw it. Never thought twice about it being visually backward. What did catch my eye was the 10 second wait. I surmised it was long enough to keep that "last little drop" from ending up on the WIDE plastic fender right there and the horrendous effects...
  9. Jeep Performance Parts (JPP) Introduces New Half Doors For Gladiator (as Part of Dual-Door Group)

    Man...Half doors were the coolest when they came out on the YJs. When I ordered my 05 LJR i tried to get a dual door type thing but they said "no dice". Now 16 years later... I always loved the half doors. The looks...the visibility...and the more comfortable arm position compared to the CJ...
  10. Are most Overlanding rigs overweight?

    I like the idea of the Overland trek...crossing austrailia or africa in the in the decked out land rover... Saw this impressive unit at Overland Expo. But, until i find myself on another continent, I like a more subtle, minimalist approach. Not only from a cost standpoint, but weight, fuel...
  11. Engine oil smells like gas

    The guy thats been wrenching at the dealer for 40 years quit years ago. Keep in mind that the smells on the oil cap are most likely from the hot fumes that are flowing out of the PVC system when the engine is shut off. Engine flatulence is some yucky stuff.
  12. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Installed my ASFIR engine skid. Super easy. Solid. Took it out to the desert to field test it. Didnt take any hits but no rubs or rattles either

    Vulture mine to Smith"s Mill haul road
  14. Stickers and decal pics!

    Did that with rattle can rustoleum. Inspired by my 87 YJ that had a "nutmeg" colored CJ hardtop decades ago.
  15. Interior Design - Let's hear your thoughts!

    I really cant complain too much about the console in my JT. Compared to my CJ/YJ consoles of yesteryear Jeep has put effort into making their consoles functional. But.... Can we move the parking brake back to the footwell? That would open up a lot of flat real estate to park my food...
  16. Stickers and decal pics!

    Waiting on a hood blackout decal still...
  17. BRIGHT WHITE Gladiator JT Club

    Was a tossup between painting the top white or going with my favorite "nutmeg" on white scheme ive had on my jeeps since my '87 YJ. Now I need to find someone willing to trade painted fenders for my black ones
