Check your battery terminal connections are tight on the main battery itself. I had something similar happen many years ago (non Jeep). If they're loose, you could lose all main power and that pretty much shuts down all the computers and everything they control.

Agreed. I still stall it backing up in my muddy driveway, and that's without a trailer.

I haven't got them yet - I held off while I was getting the Jeep fixed. Got it back last night so I'll order them this weekend and will follow up here to let you know how they fit.

In a rough terrain crawl you shouldn't be slipping the clutch any more than you do in normal driving. This is when you should be in 4-low and have a lot more control, with your left foot completely off the clutch pedal. If you need to stop or start, clutch quickly. Coolant temps will rise, but...

TL;DR: keep the trailer small and light. This is a 3.6L motor in a light duty truck. -- I tow a 16 ft, 3,500 lb (dry/unloaded) travel trailer with the 3.6L non-max tow, manual transmission Rubi JT. It's good, not great. Terrain is mostly flat and the distance is only about 200 miles a year...

I was very happy with my Truxedo Lo Pro on a Ram. It looks pretty much the same as the Gator in the above post. It had a simple auto tensioning system and didn't require drilling any holes to mount it. Being a roll-up style, you had access to the nearly the full bed length when it was rolled up.

A little over a year ago I signed up for an email alert on WeatherTech window deflectors for the JT, which were still under development. Then covid came and delays followed. Today I got the email saying they're available. These are an in-channel design, which gives a cleaner look than stick-on...

This was mentioned a few posts back. Sounds like this is what you're hearing. No idea what it is but you're not alone. It doesn't bother me enough to go digging around for the source. https://youtube.com/shorts/5g1xTFdpSMk

No - that's not it, but I definitely recognize that rattle as something else I've heard when the revs get high. But very different from the clunky noise I originally described.

By definition, you're hearing only the vocal ones, and you won't hear non-vocals who don't like the features but have no problem with feature-wanters wanting their features, because they are, well, not vocal. I like having choices. Pay for what options you want. Except when it comes to the...

Alternative: a stick-on visor above the top edge of the rear window.

Yes a heavy front bumper could change the equation

Food for thought thing: Depends on how much you use the bed. If you don't load the bed much, rake fix looks good. If the bed is loaded, you might have a squat. But if you don't use the bed much, why get a Gladiator instead of a JL or JLU... Loaded or unloaded, I'd take rake or level over squat...

The only place I found it was on ebay, appears to be a thing from China. Most sellers are based in China and seems like the ship-to point is usually from Dayton, NJ. I just took a low risk chance and ordered one from ebay today, clearly originating from China but supposedly shipping from...

Until I saw the last photo I thought the item in the right side tray was a pistol ?

$99 Ryobi electric pressure washer from HD, 1600 PSI, 1.2 GPM, very portable. Don't spray too close on the paint when using the 15 degree tip; it can be abrasive.

I agree the JK manual felt much better, but with a year on my JT now, I've adapted and find it still fun to drive. I prefer a Jeep with an "okay" manual and a bed over one with a great manual and no bed. It's a "meh-nual" transmission.

And the thing about extended warranties is they're often presented as what you're paying for the total number of years, not the number of years beyond the warranty you already have. Rephrased (making up the numbers): Pay $1,000 and you get 8 years of protection. No, if the manufacturer warranty...

Search "valve stem adapter hose" on your favorite search engine, maybe one of those short hose extensions will clear the wheel. Looks like there are lots of choices.

Same happened to me. What will likely happen is you'll go through the waiting period (maybe a month), then get a rejection notice, then resubmit, go to the back of the line, wait another month and it will eventually go through. The rebate process is lacking, but it's a great product so enjoy it...
