From research on the JL. It seems the filter is located under the frame rail. The manual does show it under emptying the fuel/water separator. Seems as if it is a sensor Ed item. Where as a dash message comes on to tell you have water in fuel. You have to crawl under the truck to remove cover...
At this time I am unsure what the diesel has in it. They haven’t released the engine in the gladiator. They have in the wrangler though. Now that said if the engine has a fuel water superstore that is accessible and able to emptied with reasonable access. I would not need a second unit. I would...
Well then good luck. Just sharing my advice from beong a mobile installer for a number of years. Just trying to help you out. Like, I said personally Id run a seperated fuse block for all those accessories.
Although this makes it easier and looks neat. Using this for multiple accessories is a nogo as far as mobile installs on a single circuit. Now one could use a single line to a small blue seas or similar fuse block. Centralizes and makes easier to chsnge fuses and diagnose the issue than fusing...
I have been researching power tools extensively, cordless tripe. Right now I carry a corded Milwaukee 1/2 Impact wrench. Unfortunately it is large, bulky, requires corded power, only has near 200ft/lbs. Has been enough for removing lug nuts from my 4-runner. But too large for much else.
Now...
Sorry one more. Thanks for the answer. Have always lluked the AEV stuff. What type inserts do the use on the rim for the headlock bolt? On my old Walker Evans they had to be relaxed as I had a few spin out. Also want to ensure it’s steel on steel and not steel on aluminum. What lift and size...
I am totally in agreement with you. Hence I am narrowing my focus on these fixes. Many tools will be able to do a multitude of repairs. Also their is quite a difference between a day trip a couple hours from home in your home state. Than a mulit-month trip through other countries. Hence me...
After doing some research I have found that everyone with the diesel JL and 37s are sticking with the stock 3.73 gears. After using the gearing calculator and strangeengineering.com. I found there was only a 200rpm drop from 33” to the 37”. Looks as if unless you are fulltime offroad and need...
Off topic: How do you like the AEV Wheel? I am leaning toward this rim myself. How are you running them Rashguard or Beadlock? How far do your tires stick out from side?
Searched before and just found this thread as I posted as well.. But far from organized.

With a new vehicle platform one would assume also comes a new Trail/Travel/Overland Toolkit.I would love to see what others are using to help put together my toolkit from everything from day to day, weekend, to expedition travel. I prefer to keep tools to a minimum as it alleviates weight, and...
Let me rephrase this as everyone gets hung up on the extra torque of the diesel. What I want to know is what people are doing now even with the current Drive Train. If I can get this information then I can have a baseline here as to what to expect and look for.
My plan is to lift and put wheels...
Title says it all curious to hear real world results. Want something still good on the hwy and able to stay in 8th. But also want to make up for the tire size. Notable that I will be applying these recommendations to the Eco Diesel. Trying to get my ducks in a row now getting all my mods for...
Looking for more informs on the Stanadyne FM100 30 micron pre fuel filter/water separator with inspection bowl and side mount heater. Will be installing a long range tank to the build as well. My main concern is getting fuel that has been contaminated either through water infiltration or other...
I havent gone through all the replies. But see at least the few I went through no one touch on that the max tow package also upgrades your axles to dana 44. Youll like miss this if you decode to upgrade to 35” or larger. Personally even though many do not tow this personally would be a min...
If you had read what I posted I have no issues in anyone DIY, The issue I had was how you went about bragging about it only costing you $30 as if to dig the poster. I get it goose gear is a bit overpriced imho. But until there is another game in town they set the pricing. Only other option to...
It was all in the presentation. As seen that you took my post differently than I intended as well. It had nothing to do with differing opinions or offering a different solution. The way it was put seemed as if he called out the poster as a fool for spending the money on the goose gear product...
