  1. I raced a Taco this morning

    Nice rides. I have had lots of his fast rides in my time but the Javelin is the only one that actually still scares the heck out of me when I stand on it. I have been running 60+ and gotten just a tad too frisky with the skinny pedal only to have the backend try to pass the front end. More than...
  2. I raced a Taco this morning

    For me I have both the go fast and the go off road vehicles. So I typically just watch them and smile. Might even say wow that thing is pretty fast isn’t it. Funny how nobody wants any when I am driving the go fast. Something about a supercharger whine that makes most people (in regular cars at...
  3. Would you pay monthly for your heated seats to work?

    This is just completely ludicrous. They will charge to install hardware. Sure they may only charge cost and labor for that hardware up front but charging for that without any benefit is still a bad concept for the consumers. They will not take a loss of any kind because stockholders would fire...
  4. You can, potentially, lock yourself out

    I think with the Sirius XM Guardian service you can call and have them unlock it as well. Not certain on that but if it is like onstar (seems to be) you only need a friend with a phone and the number.
  5. Does a bug deflector work ?

    I got the AVS version after one evening trip that resulted in a windshield that was covered far worse than any vehicle I have ever owned for such a short trip. My first Jeep of course. But, after adding the deflector it has seemed to reduce the splats by a good bit.
  6. What did you do WITH your Gladiator today?

    Thanks Tri-Jab. I remember reading that thread.
  7. Livernois Motorsports Tune claims 50HP gains (on E85) for V6 JL Wrangler and JT Gladiator

    I would like to clear up a common misconception about E85 or also known as 15% gas 85% Ethanol. It is common to hear that E85 is corrosive. However, It isn’t corrosive it is basically pure ethyl alcohol which is the same thing people consume when they drink. The reason is gets the corrosive...
  8. What did you do WITH your Gladiator today?

    Hey Tri-jab. What tonneau cover is that? Do you like it?
  9. Burning smell from passenger side. Please help.

    Look at the exhaust in the engine compartment. Something could have fallen into and gotten caught between the exhaust and a heat shield. Something like a trim clip from the factory during assembly. Probably not much risk of fire but it certainly could stink and smell like burning plastic...
  10. What did you do WITH your Gladiator today?

    Took off the top today and installed the hotheads headliners. Unfortunately haven’t take a picture of it back together yet. Hard rolling tonneau cover comes in tomorrow so probably get that installed tomorrow.
  11. Quadratec warning

    From all of the feedback I have read on this thread they seem to have issues deeper than system issues. I personally have not ordered anything from Quadratec so I really can’t comment on their customer service good, bad or otherwise. I can say that some of the issues others are having with slow...
  12. New Gladiator - hot floors

    I just looked under mine and it looks identical so I don’t think any heat shielding got left off. I can say that I have not noticed mine getting what I would consider alarmingly hot but I also haven’t checked. Here is a picture of mine. I would have the dealer check it just to be sure the...
  13. New Gladiator - hot floors

    Well, I wouldn’t hesitate to take it to the dealer to check it out. Wondering if this could have been from a heat shield not making it into the truck? Only thing I could think of to cause that catalytic converters can get extremely hot. Rich fuel mixture will cause that as well. Take a picture...
  14. Quadratec warning

    I agree that is pretty rough, but as someone that has done IT in the retail sales world for a long while it isn’t always possible. A large amount of products ship direct from a supplier/distributor warehouse and not all of them have options for integrating with those supplier inventory systems...
  15. Any have the RIPP on their JT yet and whats been the experience so far ?

    May want to check the steps on the IAC. If it is like my Fitech for tuning when the supercharger went in I had to readjust it due to the added air volume over running it without the SC.
  16. Any have the RIPP on their JT yet and whats been the experience so far ?

    I run an AMC 401 in my 70 Javelin with the Procharger D1SC and have to also get the intake out from under the hood. I don’t use an intercooler with 14 lbs of boost because I run E85 which really helps cool things down. Are you going to try to get it on a dyno? I would be curious to know what you...
  17. Any have the RIPP on their JT yet and whats been the experience so far ?

    You would do yourself a world of good if you could get that intake some cooler air then what you are pulling from under the hood.
  18. Zero Issues with Gladiator?

    Just recently got mine a couple weeks ago just a tad over 700 miles but no issues other than a terrible draw to upgrade everything and add on far too much.
  19. So i was 1 day old today

    The cargo package with the locking under seat storage is removable but it requires unbolting it if you want to make it removable
