  1. Not impressed with Gladiator performance in snow

    ^^ I think most people are under the same impression. When I was shopping for my JTM, it was very rare to find a Selec-Trac equipped vehicle on a dealer lot. It was something like a $650 option, so I couldn't understand why the majority of JTs in snow country didn't have it. Plus, it gets you...
  2. Not impressed with Gladiator performance in snow

    The difference is the center differential. Your RR has one, your JT does not. Selec-Trac mimics one by allowing different driveshaft speeds front & rear. Your JT in 4H part-time mechanically locks the front & rear driveshafts together and forces them to turn at the same speed no matter what...
  3. Not impressed with Gladiator performance in snow

    Bottom line is that you don't have Selec-Trac. If you did, I suspect you would be here telling us how your JT is a beast in the snow (I know this because I ordered my JTM with Selec-Trac and AT3Ws). You really can't compare your 4H part-time 4WD system to the full time system in the Range...
  4. Mud flaps, again

    That's kind of up to you. Some people like flaps that stick out, and some people don't like that. Yes, the wide/long are more for vehicles with a lift and/or wide tires. What I ended up with was the XL/Long RokBlokz, but I trimmed both the width and length to make them exactly the size that...

  6. Manual Shift option wears out transmission

    I occasionally use manual mode, but only for upshifting. I find in manual mode that the shifts are much quicker and 'firmer'. So, there is definitely something different going on in manual mode.
  7. dynamat noise reduction

    On my Mojave, I installed Dynamat Extreme under the back seat and on the inside of the rear cab wall. I also used it on the sub enclosure. I only did this because the rear seat and interior cab panel needed to be removed to replace the drivetrain control module under warranty. It made a...
  8. Mud flaps, again

    You'll forget about the price of the Rokblokz after you've had them for a little bit. I run a modified set with Overland side steps and they work great. The rears also keep the inside of the rear bumper from filling up with slush/snow & mud...
  9. Need part name/part number

    Sounds like you may need to buy the entire Wiring Trough, but look here: https://store.mopar.com/v-2022-jeep-gladiator--rubicon--3-0l-v6-diesel/electrical--wiring-body-and-accessories There are several different wiring troughs:
  10. Long term storage

    It is interesting what can be found in your Owners Manual. For example, there is a section entitled "Storing the Vehicle":
  11. More runaround on the 4xe transmission

    I would never accept any type of warranty repair that was performed without following the FSM. Before allowing them to goop RTV on that gasket, I'd want something official from Jeep stating that this is acceptable, along with a clearly defined process/procedure and RTV specification.
  12. Should I stay or should I go?

    The lift and wheels might be Mopar parts, but they aren't "Jeep factory options".
  13. All weather matts

    I usually get OEM mats, but I decided to go with the WT FloorLiner HP for my JT. I highly recommend the FloorLiner HP because they have extra high raised edges and a barely-noticeable logo. Note that the FloorLiner HP is different from the FloorLiner and All-Weather Floor Mats that WeatherTech...
  14. Should I stay or should I go?

    The OP said he doesn't like the ride. The Mojave fixes this problem. Back in 2021, I test drove a Rubicon because the dealer didn't have a Mojave on the lot. I figured I could live with the ride of the Rubicon. So, I ordered a Mojave just the way I wanted it, and I was pleasantly surprised...
  15. Should I stay or should I go?

    I'd get rid of it. Life is too short to have a vehicle that you don't really like. If the ride is an issue, but you like the JT in general, then (IMO) just get a Mojave and be happy.

  18. Rock light mounting

    I actually find that my rock lights often help the people following me the most.
  19. Rock light mounting

    The videos posted above do a good job at showing how ineffective the lights mounted in the fenderwells are as real rock lights. All they do is light up the tires and cast large shadows on the ground. Even the rear mounted light casts a lot of shadows.
  20. Rock light mounting

    If you do a lot of offroading at night and you want actual functioning rock lights, then you want to mount the lights to areas of the chassis/underbody that will provide full light coverage underneath the vehicle. 2 or 3 along each side, 2 across the rear, and 2 across the front will typically...
