cool. Rather them do it for the maintenance record should anything come up

Bumping this -- my dealer wanted over $500 including tax to do this service. Bought the filter online for $65 and 20 minutes later it was done. Going to ask a different service advisor when I'm there to pick up my 392 there just to see if I get a different answer, because that's insane and feels...

Last year was certainly strange — we’ll see. I think they’re trying to get back to more normal production times thus why I doubted a calendar year 2023 as opposed to model year instead. Either way I just want Punk’n.

Then it will be a 2024 and not a 2023. Or, it's coming this August 28th, which is what I'm thinking is more likely. I'll absolutely be trading my 2021 white ecodiesel in for a 23 punkn ecodiesel if true.

Wrangler is not getting a mid cycle refresh this time around. It won’t need it. They’ll sprinkle in small iterative changes like uconnect and maybe a seat change to compete with bronco but that’s about it is my guess.

no issue whatsoever. Very easy trail

power wagon is sweet though I’d prefer an AEV prospector

Mine is fine in AZ temps. I don’t tow though

Yep pretty much. Wish I could have gotten a two door gladiator with a 6.5 foot bed. Still love mine as a daily though.

Just my opinion... but departure/breakover angles are poor and I'll consistently drag it on stuff even on 40's. It also struggles in tight spaces on trails. It goes everywhere though... just have to approach things a bit differently. I don't have to typically think about any of that stuff in my...

i agree that the gladiator is a terrible truck and a terrible Jeep. I love mine. I’m completely serious too. It’s not a good truck. It’s not a good Jeep. But it does both of those things barely well enough that if you have the use case it’s perfect. Just not for everyone.

I don't think they will... on their site implies you have to tune internal bypass shocks in person with the vehicle. Also doubtful you can make them softer without risking shims breaking. I mean if it really can be done that's a decent option.. I can just see it being risky or costing a lot...

I'll have to read your thread on that. And you're right, it's absolutely subjective. Accutune actually recommended 2.0 Fox (RemoteR's) for my 392/use case. Said they'd be fine for what I do in Moab on occasion (and still rebuildable), and then I wouldn't give up ride quality on road from OEM...

I primarily went to the 3.0 because I was going to have a lot of weight and wanted to run cushy off road with that weight (i.e., down forest roads, etc) and also have the adjustability to smash things in the desert and not feel it. But I'm learning now that it's not what I thought. I also didn't...

My 2 door is a bone stock Rubicon. But taking my 392 down that same road warrants the same -- perfect ride and I don't feel any harshness. It was stock before the 3.0's. I really thought the adjusters would be the answer on the 3.0's and it would be great on road and if I needed to stiffen I...

Yes. I run at softest setting and it's still way too f'ing harsh on rough roads at 45-65 mph (and bad on service roads too). You just feel every imperfection in the road. Stiffening it up just seems to increase the bounciness so to speak. Long highways are fine... it's local roads that are the...

showing: 4.5 up front 5 in back. I've got the ones for 3.5-4.5" of lift, with 4.5" evo plush springs. doubt I'm in bump zone just driving down the road by what you're saying. I think the shock is just too damn large and just runs stiff as hell out of the gate.

How do you identify if you're riding in the bump zone? Any idea? My 3.0's are great off road on my diesel gladiator but you feel literally every minor imperfection in the road even full soft setting. Same road in my stock JL is night and day more comfortable. It's not bad as long as it's a good...
