  1. Alu-Cab Canopy Camper Roll Call

    Great - that looks exactly like what I want to do. Thanks, will probably start with cheapo HD grade and see how it goes.
  2. Alu-Cab Canopy Camper Roll Call

    Anyone DIY the Alu-Cab fitted water tank install? I skipped the water tank when I got the ACCC 3+ years ago, and been managing with a bunch of 20L Scepter water cans. Decided to get the water tank with black friday discount, and it's ready to install. Plumbing question for anyone here I see...
  3. Diesel cooling options and ideas

    Just want to point out - this is not an oil cooler kit. It’s an auxiliary engine coolant radiator that goes in line with the main radiator.
  4. Front control arms or geometry brackets

    I slammed one of my MetalCloak brackets a lot on the Rubicon and it looks like this now (one side only, other side is untouched). Not concerned personally.
  5. Front row third "jump seat" in a JT?

    Is this possibly for an infant or child seat? Having followed Dan’s adventures on YouTube, I wonder if it’s that…
  6. Justifying Winch Setup For Both Rigs

    This arrangement makes sense to me. Can’t guess about your budget but the HF Badlands 12k on sale is a good deal for a solid winch
  7. ISO Jeep Gladiator - First Time Buyer

    He doesn’t. There are a lot of places that have no post-sale emissions checks whatsoever (I would have though UT was one of them…) We are specifically talking about diesels here (Mojave was never available in diesel). 2024+ Willys also has a rear locker (or real locker option?) but the...
  8. A new hope ... (build journal and component reviews)

    Congrats on sale. I know that must have been a bit complex!
  9. ISO Jeep Gladiator - First Time Buyer

    Just adding a +1 to all the others above - only gas Rubicons got 4.10:1 axle gearing. All diesels got 3.73:1 axles no matter what package. But the stock diesel will happily turn 35s on 3.73s; you’ll barely even notice. I and many others are happy with 37s on 3.73s (though that’s about where...
  10. New Metal Cloak Silver / Slate Shocks

    No idea about the new shocks. The JL forum is more likely to have some early adopters though Just wanted to point out that JL rears are very different than JT rears, and won’t fit at all. I didn’t see these styles in a JT fitment on the MC site
  11. Tire rotation with spare

    Yeah I bought 5 aftermarket wheels and do a 5-tire rotation. My 12.5s definitely protrude lower than stock and are prone to scrapes on shelf drops. I added a hitch insert to protect it (see my profile pic). When I did the Rubicon I strapped the spare in the back seat to protect it (it would...
  12. Aft mounted fuel tank

    I haven’t yet but I will while I have it apart. Still collecting all the parts to finalize my bed-mounted aux tank install.
  13. Aftermarket Bumpers that accept Mopar LED fog lights?

    I also have the Mopar LED fogs and eventually replaced them with KC SAE fogs, which I found to be rather better than the Mopar ones. Nice sharp pattern vertically, but wider and a bit brighter. Just my opinion of course. They weren’t particularly expensive and I think you’ll find that the price...
  14. Cleaning that gap is anoying. How do you get the job done?

    @moderators shouldn’t this kind of ad be restricted to the vendor’s own subforum
  15. How much diesel to fill your truck from empty?

    I have this and it’s much, much, much better than trying to use the stock open-cone adapter with big-rig nozzles as it actually encloses the entire end of the nozzle. Trying to dribble fuel in from the big rig cannons - with the stock cone you’re almost guaranteed a diesel shower all over...
  16. Aft mounted fuel tank

    So I don’t have an install video, but I do have this bookmarked: Right around the 5:00 minute mark you get a very clear look at the arrangement of the fuel filler hose. I have plans underway for the RDS 11025 install on mine. The rollover valve that feeds into the stock filler pipe wants to...
  17. Overland tire load rating

    IMHO it’s more about how much sidewall thickness you need for trails made of sharp rocks. Load limits on gravel roads are not an issue (as above). It really depends heavily on the exact tire, the exact pressures you use, and the exact terrain you run on. I’ve punctured several E-rated...
  18. Def shows 100%, after a month of driving..

    I’m averaging 877 mpg of DEF long term, but it varies from probably 700 to 1500 depending on conditions. OP’s experience seems within the bounds of normal so far
  19. Airing up tires on a cold day...

  20. Check engine lights galore while going up hill at freeway speeds

    Do you have a code reader? Check for P00AF and P206D codes - if so, this is due to the turbo boost actuator not matching expected position. Some people have managed to get a turbo replaced under warranty with this. It has hit me, but only when climbing slowly on steep grades in hot weather at...
