So this guy is a legit traveler. He overlanded from Alaska to the bottom tip of South America in an old Jeep Wrangler. He went around the entirety of Africa for 3 years in a JK. Now he is going to travel around Australia in a JT. He doesnt like to stay on pavement

What would having too much oil (per the dipstick) but normal oil pressures (31-32) indicate/mean? Wouldnt it be if you added too much oil the system would tell you by having too high of a idling pressure? Or are all the threads of dealerships adding 6qts but the JTs running fine mean there is a...

But what if we made the JT into a Gama Goat type vehicle?

My side mirrors (just the plain power ones, not the fancy collision detection ones) started working intermittently after a collision with my passenger side front area (dented panel, door was ok). Now it's stopped working. The wire's are plugged in, the fuse is fine. I finally got it into a...

I am seeing tons of posts on the FB groups about how folks are getting/trading in their JTs for either slightly less than what they paid for their Jeeps, or even thousands more. Few are sharing details on their original purchase or condition of the Jeep at sale/trade. I will say my Jeep is...

So this thread informed me of a thing called the hydro-guide. Got me interested, sure enough it's for water diversion from air intakes. Tri-Level Hydro-Guide Air Intake System https://www.hotcars.com/2021-jeep-wrangler-rubicon-392-debuts-with-awesome-hydro-guide-system-for-water-fording/ So...

After I pull the rock out? Falken MTs 35"

I had not been wheeling since Labor Day and finally got a chance to go on a fund-raising ride celebrating some new roads being added to the Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway. Here are some highlights. I kept up with all the modded 4Runners, Tacomas, and lifted Wranglers. Here are some highlights...

I am having a hard time deciding between a 6x12 or a 7x14 enclosed cargo trailer. It's somewhat slim pickings now, but Im starting my search to see availability. I have read on the Jeep JT pages that 7' wide trailers are barely manageable due to visibility issues even with mirror extensions...

First off, this place is great with recommendations/help/advice. The ideas and pics from my previous rack thread were very helpful https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/bed-rack-roof-rack-and-rtt-recommendations-please.29269/ What are your perceived/experienced pros/cons of a full...

Super Stock

Im gonna presume totaled and from the same collision. Saw them in a body shop parking lot If the JT hit the Cherokee, well that goes to show how impressive the JT is. Both vehicles had airbags deployed

Given there is about 10 feet of length from windshield to tailgate, a bed rack and roof rack could probably be set up to carry 10 foot boards. When overlanding or off-roading, is it practical to carry a couple 2x12x10 or 4x12x10 to make a makeshift bridge to cross? You see such apparatuses being...

Placeholder thread for when we get more details on the JT hybrid. How much will it weigh? What will be the GVWR? Looks like the Sahara 4xe has 1000lbs more GVWR than the gas model, with about 100lbs less payload. Wonder how that works? Saharah 4xe GVWR: 6200lbs compared to 5400ish on gas JLUS...

In February I was hit from the side by a 2000s Toyota camery. The driver hit ice in a parking lot and couldnt stop. Oh they didnt have insurance. I didnt notice any damage, but it was dark and during a snowstorm. Initial inspection by my insurance company found a small dent. No biggie. My...

If something like this came along for the JT (maybe it has by someone else), would you do it? Thoughts on the claims (in other groups) where these are much stronger than ball joints? I figure if they're so good why dont the big players like Spicer, Synergy, etc offer them...

What are folks on here recommending for replacement brakes? Mainly this should be a sticky for pads, but maybe rotors, calipers, and drum brakes. Dealership told me I'd need to replace brakes in 15k miles (when I brought in the vehicle for a look over at 35k miles), Im gonna assume they just...

Often times I see folks (not here, elsewhere) not considering a lot of factors that affect recovery. From whether winching is better over yanking someone out, to loads and duration. Here is a good article (discussed after the winches) https://outdoorx4.com/stories/stuck-assessment-recovery-plan/...

Why cant modern Jeeps do what Land Cruisers were doing decades ago? Besides a snorkel, what mods are needed for a Jeep to go this deep? Yes, I made a thread last year on water fording depth. This thread is different. It asks for information on what the Land Cruisers have that JTs dont and...

Update: thread became about what the proper oil weight is, and the conflicting answers from Jeep's writing and technical staff. Original Post So not wanting to spend $150 to replace differential fluid for both axles (need slightly 5.25pts, so need to buy 3qts to get the needed 2.625pts), what...
