For all of you reading this thread and thinking of starting your own YouTube channel, don't use clickbait titles like:
"What I hate about the Gladiator"
"I think I am going to sell the Jeep"
"I almost died on this trail"
"My skottle burnt my ice cream!"
I don't know about you all, but I...
When I was building out the first version of my camper interior, I found just about everything I needed from https://www.tnutz.com/
A lot cheaper ($$) than 8020 at the time.
Has anyone tapped into the factory bed light circuit and repurposed it for something? For us who have cabinet systems, it's useless, so I'm brainstorming some ideas of possibly scene lights or a-pillar lights to utilize the factory switch and harness.
I have double Seaflo 1.2GPM in mine. One pressurizes the spigot that comes with the Alu-Cab tank and the other for the shower. Not the highest pressure, but works for what I need it for. The only problem was my fault, forgot to purge them during a trip to Montana and after a few days of very...
I've got 45k on my diesel and would buy another one again. Except for the free oil changes that came with my Gladiator, I have done the maintenance myself so it's really not much of an additional cost. All my gasser Jeeps get premium oil so maybe I am used to buying expensive oil. I stock up on...
Saw somewhere else they check a screen as a first step and if there's any debris, they do the work. I'm also glad to see by looking at the instructions that I won't have to pull my bumper and winch. Was afraid they would need to remove the grill to access something.
I'm a big fan of the Expedition Essentials dash mounts. Includes a ton of threaded holes for various mounts, a track system for Ram-style mounts, and includes a dual USB port on top to keep your cable clutter organized...
I too went with the PowerBrakes and couldn't be happier.
My rear brakes do so little work (based on the wear after 40k+ miles) that I don't see a need for upgrading based on my current use and performance. I have only added braided extended lines in the rear. Other than that, they are stock.
Helping is exactly what I am doing here. Why add extra work by running and crimping 4 gauge wire when a simple, proven option is on the market? You are essentially telling the OP he wired it wrong with your comment because he used an Expedition Essentials harness. How exactly is that helpful...
Another happy Cascadia 4x4 customer here (85W). I work from home, so the Jeep sits in the driveway sometimes up to a couple of weeks at a time. Every non-ignition accessory is powered by my camper's house battery, so the hood-mounted panel's sole job is to maintain the starting battery.
If anyone is mounting their compressor in this location or another that may be vulnerable to water ingression, ARB makes a "snorkel" kit for their compressors. Or you can figure out the fittings (1/4NPT) and make them yourself...
The Expedition Essentials extension harness is a proven design and has been on the market for years (and recommended by ARB). If I remember right, it was designed by a former aircraft electrical engineer.
