I wonder if they can be re-keyed to the OEM cut for your vehicle so you don't need to carry extra keys?
And for those concerned about crap in the locking cylinder, just use some DRY lithium spray every month or so. That's what we use in the locking gas caps on motorcycles, works great! Done...
THANK YOU!
Someone finally remembers "Severe vs Normal Duty intervals" and "Break-in processes".
"The most common mileage service interval that I've seen, for a mixed-use vehicle that is taken off-road or used for towing, is 5,000 miles." - Since many people here off-road and/or tow...
What do you think this is hinting to? We all know the 3.6 V6 isn't a "powerhouse" even if it CAN make 300hp in certain configurations NA (just not for Jeep). They discontinued the Diesel a few years ago for us, and THAT made fun/good torque. The Wranglers had the 392 which we generally consider...
IIRC there was an option you could order without the FAD and instead they install a block-off plate that internally locks the two side together (like the FAD, but always engaged) as you see in the picture earlier.
BUT, Mopar still lists the FAD for the 2025 MY gladiator: 2025 Gladiator FAD...
That's some of the biggest bs lies the state has people believing. NY said the same thing regarding the Thruway (toll road) back in the 70s, we're still being taxed for it, and paying tolls WITH THEIR OWN TAXES ADDED ON, and STILL not having it or other roads fixed correctly or in a timely...
A) Yes they WILL factor loaded/GVWR ratings during an investigation.
B) And when they find out you couldn't stop due to negligence, you'll be getting charged.
C) 16-20% weight increase means 30-100' extra stopping distance, so that extra distance meant you wouldn't have ran over that kid in your...
I've heard the AUX battery failing can take out the radio, and IIRC I saw a report where it did the same thing to their radio.
Something regarding voltage regulation and sensitive circuits.
But yeah, that radio is probably toast. Looks like the driver for the screen or the chipset for...
You focused on when to change it for break-in, but failed to address the consumption rate. I don't care if you CAN use the same oil over 10k miles...because that's irrelevant when you run the engine dry during that OCI. The fact engines are being "designed" to consume all or more of their oil...
If your Viper kit has an AUX input that can be programmed as a signal to start, you COULD use a GPS locator I found for $40 that allows you to use your own sim and a free open source app to send a signal from it to trigger the Viper. Or and arduino/Rasp-pi and custom code.
WILL YOU STOP MAKING...
I pulled my grandmother from a 5' snow filled ditch with the rear hook this winter. Snatch strap and d-ring shackle (on her hook, not mine) with no issues. It's more about HOW you use them than how often. I just used the padded loop end on my rear hook.
Did the same pulling a GMC Sierra 1500...
THAT has been the single biggest issue since their release of their cellular product, AT&T network only, which often has issues even in areas with coverage. The antenna inside isn't great either as I've hear people can make calls/text but not have their RS working in the same place.
FYI Viper...
Like @IamPro2A mentioned, following all instructions is key. While you may think it took the marry process, it sometimes doesn't fully.
I too had issues with the reverse lights, but after spending 25 minutes unmarrying then remarrying I learned I was not doing something exactly the way the...
Take a pic of what you're saying you see, because "distortion with white lines" doesn't sound normal.
Why do you have the bypass plugged in if you're not using the programmer? That's asking for problems in modern systems. Unless you have another device that requires a bypass to be used with it...
Any quality Directed Electronics system should work fine. They come basic or feature packed (for a price). I've been using them for over a decade on different vehicles. They're not always as flashy as Viper products, but work just as well for much less. They're also a bit more reliable than...
That's a lot of sag in the back for not a lot of weight. My Willys was sagging 2-3" more but I had a Vulcan 900 (750lbs cruiser), toolbox full, cinder blocks, and more in the bed of mine AND was towing a 3200lbs Kia Soul at the same time. Granted I'm stock/no lift, but still...
IIRC the repairs were done less than 24 month/24k miles since the previous owner sold and I bought it, so the warranty on parts/labor were the minimum for claiming defects. That AND the fact the dealer which did the work remembers this vehicle and the situation it was in very clearly, and are...
My 2021 with the original 7" doesn't even like when I try using the tire fill feature, 95% of the time it says it's working but when I go to check it, the screen greys out again. The Tazer version is the only thing that keeps my TPMS light off below 35psi. IIRC I also saw a 2025 with that...
