  1. Has anyone replaced or needed to replace the Transfer Case chain?

    More likely to be the driveshaft, especially if it's lifted.
  2. On this episode of "Batteries gone bad"

    Sounds like your main battery wasn't fully charged when installed.
  3. I am leaving the forum today.

    I believe all vehicles have become more complex, not just Jeeps. I can understand your thinking. If your current vehicles serve you well hold onto them as long as you can.
  4. Bent Axle? Positive Tire Camber

    How are the hub bearings? Worn hub bearings can cause the tire to lean like that. Jack up the front so the tires clear the ground and try to wiggle the wheels and check for slop.
  5. Time it takes the alternator to fully charge a nearly dead battery

    The bottom line is that a replacement battery must be fully charged before installation. The alternator is only good for maintaining a fully charged battery. If you don't drive it long enough daily, you need to put a charger on the battery regularly to keep the battery fully charged. Use your...
  6. How can I say this without sounding like a total NOOB? Cooling system Question

    You don't need to do anything like that video shows. In 10 years or 150,000 miles you can pull off the lower radiator hose and drain the system. Refill with water then drain again. Refill with 50/50 mixture of the proper coolant and distilled water. The key is using the proper coolant specified...
  7. 8/15/23 Order, 8/23/23 Shipped, real basic build

    I've heard the factory has been running 7 days a week for awhile now to make as many Jeeps as possible in case there is a strike in September.
  8. serv 4wd error when in 4lo

    I remember reading about this several times in the past from people who just regeared. I believe the fix was to reprogram the correct gear ratio and tire size parameters.
  9. do these automatically idle up/accelerate in 4 low to climb over obstacles?

    I noticed the same thing with my 2021 JT Rubicon the first time I put it in 4L with offroad+ on. Just idled around, feet off the pedals, came up to a small rock, momentarily slowed then sounded like engine got more throttle and pulled right over the rock. I wasn't using the offroad cruise...
  10. OEM Rubicon Wheel Clearance Issues with Balancing Weights?

    Whoever balanced the tires put the weights in the wrong location. Factory has stick-on weights all the way against the back of the front face and uses clip-on weight as needed along inner wheel lip.
  11. PROPERLY shifting into 4wd, H or L

    I think the Jeep lever style transfer case is rather old-school and easy to use. My first Jeep was a 1990 XJ Cherokee, followed by 3 more XJ's and my 04 TJ Rubicon and now my JT Rubicon as well. Shifting the transfer case has used the same method through the years. What really screwed me up was...
  12. ARB Compressor short and melted wire

    I'd guess that the ground wire is too small to handle the current draw.
  13. Factory Service Manual

    techauthority.com still has 2020 Gladiator SUSB as out of stock. I'll be checking regularly and will put in my order when available.
  14. FAD Failure

    Yes
  15. Factory Service Manual

    You must have got the last one. I just went to the site this morning and 2020 is out of stock. I plan to order a 2020 SUSB from Tech Authority as others have suggested, only $130. When I had previously Googled for a service manual I must have ended up at a third party site, they wanted $220, was...
  16. Factory Service Manual

    2020 not available now either.
  17. Factory Service Manual

    Expected release date March 31, 2023. Signed up for notification when available.
  18. Factory Service Manual

    Looked last night, 2021 service manual still not available, possible February release date. Tech Authority has been stringing us along for over a year now. Always keeps pushing the date out.
  19. What do I need to go off road the first time?

    Find a local club or club event to go on so you're not out there alone. Should have a tow strap, tire pressure gauge and air compressor so that you can air down and air up your tires.
  20. Gas Prices Are Still Dropping With No Signs Of Stopping.

    Below $3 at end of 2022. At $3.49 last night.
