You need a talisman. Find a little plastic critter/stuffed animal and keep it in your vehicle as protection. All my vehicles have a "mascot", usually with a name related to the car. My gladiator has a plastic alligator on the dash. The car will tell you what to get... In my case the radio kept...

Yep. Ditto.

Yes, it happened today actually. I'm waiting until covid dies down a little before I take it in. I'm in Florida, and the general public here is not safe to be around. (I know the dealership tries, but the customers don't...)

I have also had this happen when it downshifts to 4th gear, sometimes it will "lunge" ahead as if I hit the gas. This usually happens if I brake a little hard, then let up just as it drops into 4th.

So here's a weird question we were throwing around about what towing capacity actually means: Say your towing limit is 4500 lbs. You might have factory installed equipment like a transmission cooler, or larger brakes that came with a towing package. But isn't the transmission identical to...

I needed a truck, wife and I also wanted a Jeep, we both like convertibles, mix thoroughly and bake at 350 for 30 minutes.....Gladiator. Ta Daa!

I had a good friend at work, he had a angry personality like this on occasion. It has gotten worse over the years, now we no longer talk at all. EVERYTHING that comes out of his mouth now is something degrading or disagreeable. Anything he doesn't like is stupid. If you don't do things the way...

I was going to do the same thing, so I am curios of the answer as well. I was going to attach them to a relay that would also disconnect the license plate lights while in reverse, to help with the camera glare. I intended to get my power/ reverse trigger from the center pin of the round trailer...

Barn. Along with parts for the Satellite, Cherokee, lawnmower, tractor, chainsaws, house, four or five past cars (I need to have a yard sale), and a couple robots.

Just curious.... I fall into the "I wash it occasionally" category...

This would probably be too pricey.... but here is one. Maybe you can trace down the company that makes the harness and get just the connector. It is for a 1965 mustang. https://www.classicindustries.com/product/17b587b.html Here's a cheaper alternative...

The plug you seek looks like two "hopkins" power connectors glued together. Could you get two, sand the sides flat and glue them somehow? It would even make the seam correctly.

I needed some cloth wire for a steampunk ghostbuster proton pack I made for a convention, and found it to be expensive and hard to find. So what I did was get some paracord and pull the guts out of the center and used the cloth sheath over a regular wire. Melting the ends with a soldering iron...

I use a trailer for plywood and big stuff, so the handles/tie downs on top don't bother me at all.

I think I used a 2x6, You will have to measure the length. Make it a little short to make it easy to get in and out, or it will get wedged. Putting a handle somewhere on it to pull it out is helpful. Also you will have to cut the corners off on the bottom to make it fit flat, as the slots are...

I'll contribute some pertinent information on this topic: " . "

Speaking of history...here's a weird tidbit: The 8 speed transmission in the gladiator is a ZF 850RE unit designed by the ZF Friedrichshafen AG company, who is 90% owned by The Zeppelin Foundation, as in "Founded by Ferdinand Von Zeppelin" fame...

AAAGH! A baby velociraptor is on my bumper!

I had to screw my wench down hard so it wouldn't fall off.

Just remember to prime/paint/seal the edges of any holes you drill, or the rust will begin and out drops your grommet.
