If you buy the Mopar doors they would qualify as factory authorized and OEM equipment. That may be your best argument. I would put them on and see what happens with the Queens Cowboys.

I would think a dollars worth of dark foam pipe insulation would do the same thing. I will check that out.

I will inquire again, and also sit in my seats when the Jeep gets here, as well as several other more base models to see if I can discern the difference. After that I will post again, however the dealer now expects Feb delivery which will put it at 12 +- weeks.

For a DYS product I use 3M Auto Synthetic Wax Protectant - # 39030. I have it on my GC, applied it when new 14 months ago and it still beads the water like it did when first applied. And that is driving through 6 months of winter in central Alberta. Cost about $ 30.00 for 473ml, and my own...

Interesting tidbit about seats. I ordered the Overland HA with leather seats, apparently an upgrade version with another package. One line on the spec sheet said “#1 Foam Seats”. I asked the dealer what this meant and they said the foam has varying grades based on the seat model. Can’t say what...

I have maintained and repaired and managed heavy diesel fleets for 40 years. I do have faith in many of the new tech improvements in this field, however, to me, the turbo is the most vulnerable component to seizure if not allowed to cool properly, wind down from it’s high rpm with enough time to...

I have purchase a dozen new vehicles in 4 Canadian provinces In the last 40 years. I never went to the DMV once - the sales person does it all. Surprised the US sales don’t have this feature.

Cool, thanks

Or possibly Shell just refused to spend the money to show up on the list of approved oils. However, I will re-check with the dealer to see what they are authorized to use on Gen3. Thanks

The manufacturer recommendation in Canada is Shell Rotella T6 5w40. T6 is their highest designated heavy duty diesel oil.

That is why I also chose the Overland HA. I won’t be rock climbing and I do enjoy creature comforts!

Yes, mine is a HA.

While I realize I am basing an opinion based on pics, every time I see metal shafts broken with discolouration in the break area it is due to impurities in the metal - could be a carbon deposit, could be any number of other metal inclusions depending on the foundry. It is possible it is only...

I have a Overland on order and the axles are Dana M210 wide axle on the front, and Dana M220 on the rear - the same as Mojave. I would expect the iron knuckles to be standard on these axles.

I got a 2021 VIN from my dealer yesterday, a document that shows the vehicle build with package options. It also has a status of “D1-Gateline: plant has sequenced the unit for production, estimated ship date assigned.“ Date is Dec 27. Also the vehicle build sticker is assigned to my name. When I...

The reason for the manufacturers indicating their product for gas only is the diesel DEF tank and feed lines, retract pump, etc, that are installed close to the frame so the mounting brackets won’t fit. I ran into this issue with my 2016Ram 1500. Eventually found some compatible running boards...

When I ordered my Overland HA it has 285/50/20 ( if I remember correctly, they could also be 60’s) so I don’t know anything about the 18’s. I can’t remember if they are Bridgies, or Goodyear

Ever see a goat’s tongue?

@Lod Offroad Can you tell me if these are bolt on for the diesel? Many different manufacturers have specific models to overcome the location of the DEF tank.

No doubt that some certain conditions cause problems with defrosting. There are few vehicles that can handle every condition/temperature/humidity ranges really well. Where I have lived for many years is a zone that gets is all - from 100 deg summer to -40 c in winter and everything in between...
