  2. What kind of first aid setup is everyone running?

    I have the same set up as you in all our vehicles with some additional things added. When we’re out on an Overlanding trip I have a larger kit that we also take with us.
  3. Suspension problem, wheel hop or out of balance, or overly-sensitive driver?

    Another possibility could be that some of the weights may have fallen off and the tire isn’t balanced anymore.
  4. So glad the JT does not have any of them ticking sounds...... Sorry 2022 article!

    Interesting that the early Gladiators were not included in this lawsuit…
  5. If you were in Jeep Management, what changes would you make to the Gladiator?

    ^^^ which would add maybe 100 pounds max.
  6. Super Bowl Jeep ad w/ Harrison Ford

    I agree. Overall though, I thought most of the commercials were sub par compared to previous years..The half time show (what little I watched) sucked.
  7. If you were in Jeep Management, what changes would you make to the Gladiator?

    Those numbers are not correct… The 3.6 Pentastar gas engine weighs about 330 pounds The 3.0 Diesel engine weighs about 507 pounds. Just as a point of reference my 6.7 turbo diesel in my F-350 weighs 800 pounds… Now you know.šŸ˜Ž
  8. If you were in Jeep Management, what changes would you make to the Gladiator?

    W O W! I have been watching TK’s Garage for about a year now and he seems to have some legit inside sources and several of the things he has said about Stelantis did in fact come true. So he is saying that in ā€˜26 Jeep will offer the 5.7 hemi in the Gladiator as an ā€œaffordableā€ option!! Sign...
  9. If you were in Jeep Management, what changes would you make to the Gladiator?

    I think the Rubicon and Mojave should come standard with 35ā€ tires and perhaps 4.55 gearing. More engine choices is obvious…
  10. 500 mile on ODO

    I built a home for the head of R&D for a company that supplies the additive packages to the many of the major oil companies to use in their oils. He is a real gear head and is now a great friend. When I bought my first Porsche I asked him what is the best way to break in an engine. He said that...

  13. I spent a week with the Hurricane I6

    Don’t I know! Haha However this article says that the Hurricane engine will fit in any rear drive application where the Pentastar is currently being used…...
  14. I spent a week with the Hurricane I6

    Not doubting you but whenever I hear ā€œX engine will not fitā€ I’m reminded of the interview with the head of Jeep when the Gladiator was first introduced and he stated emphatically that the larger V8’s would not fit…. then a few years later and we see AMW stuffing 392’s and even 427’s in there...
  15. Tire Chains - still a thing?

    I believe the snow chain requirements are for commercial vehicles. If you have a 4x4 and snow rated tires I don’t believe you will be turned around by the police. We went through Vail Pass on I-70 last year when the tire chain requirements were in effect during a major blizzard and all the...
  16. Gladiator EcoDiesel Rubicon - Quality & Efficiency Build

    Thanks for the confirmation that the MP Comcepts Aluminum bumper will fit with a little finess! Did you use the OEM skid plate or the one that came with the bumper and why? Also, the same question about the winch plate… Thanks!
  17. EBay - Generic OEM style Stubby Bumper - Thoughts?

    Were you able to install the MP Concepts aluminum bumper on your Rubicon? Thats what I want to do but the website says it doesn’t fit. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
  18. Has anyone installed the MP Concepts Aluminum bumper on a Rubicon?

    Yeah I looked at their install video and in looking at my JTR the skid plate doesn’t actually attach to the bumper, unlike the MP Concepts set up. So it got me to wondering if ai could just keep the OEM skid plate and use their bumper…
  19. Has anyone installed the MP Concepts Aluminum bumper on a Rubicon?

    The website states that it will not fit but I’m wondering why. It ticks all my boxes and since I just picked up a Badlands winch I’d really like to do both installs at once. Thanks...
  20. 5k mile oil changes in spite of oil life indicator still showing plenty left

    I don’t want to get into a pissing contest with anyone but for me I’m running 5W-30 full synthetic with 5000 mile OCI. I don’t like the idea of running water through my oil galleries…
