  2. 392 Gladiator V8 Hemi confirmed by Jeep CEO!

    My wife's JLU with MOPAR lift and 35s does about 17 mpg - it has under 1,000 miles on it. I expect it to only get better (and this is on winter gas) My JTM mpg sucks - it's factory 33s and only does 17. It has almost 10,000 on it. So what's the difference? Oh, yeah, longer flat sides = more...
  3. Well, it wasnt the lifter tick I thought it was (Updated)

    They'll have it do a CCDIFF relearn and all should be good.
  4. 392 Gladiator V8 Hemi confirmed by Jeep CEO!

    You can't even think about comparing the two. Wow. And the standard 2.0 in a brick with crazy heavy 37s??? What would you expect? Not to mention, the low mpg is often the driver. I bet I could do better with the same jeep
  5. Well, it wasnt the lifter tick I thought it was (Updated)

    What timing? Cam timing? That's a phaser issue.
  6. Transmission drain and fill at 60K

    For me, it's different - it's simply not possible. I get down and start working and on comes the migraine, dizziness and nausea. It's not a matter of taking my time, in fact, the longer I'm under a vehicle, the worse it gets. Unless you have this - there's no way to relate. It's not the same as...
  7. 392 Gladiator V8 Hemi confirmed by Jeep CEO!

    Lots of time for things to happen. Hurricane would be great. Ram people love them so far.
  8. Transmission drain and fill at 60K

    Be ready for me posting a "fire sale" of things, equipment, tools, boring bar, line hone, cam bearing installer, head CC'ing tools, AMC parts and more including Jeep and other transfer cases, 258 engine parts, a 360 and 343 engine with NOS high compression pistons. Having worked on cars since I...
  9. Transmission drain and fill at 60K

    For me, it literally makes me physically sick - really sick. Lost left side inner ear function. Can't lay down and work on things. Can't move up and down without getting sick.
  10. Transmission drain and fill at 60K

    Finding anyone who can do something right today is totally amazing, shocking, even. And yes, if a dealer does it, at least you have warranty. These quicky places and some independents scare me. Now that I can't lay under a vehicle, I'll likely let a lot of things go a lot longer......... This...
  11. Well, it wasnt the lifter tick I thought it was (Updated)

    Can't go back too many years - the PUG was only released for the 2016 model year in certain FCA vehicles and not in the Wrangler until 2018 model year. Still a drop in the hat compared to the many millions produced. When you have so very many engines out there, you are bound to see more raw...
  12. Well, it wasnt the lifter tick I thought it was (Updated)

    We have to consider these engines were in Grand Cherokee since the 2016 model year, as well as others. I'd have to believe the number of PUG engines is way up there by now.
  13. Towing Capacity of 2024 Gladiator Willys

    Today's automatics also have more GEAR RATIOS. It's about engine peak efficiency, heat rejection (keeping the engine at a certain RPM) and much more. It gets, quite literally, into engineering. People here have their simplistic views of towing and payload and there's just to way to use logic or...
  14. Towing Capacity of 2024 Gladiator Willys

    The above from Jeep.com Willys, apparently based on Sport, would obviously match the Sport with tow package. Almost everything is 6,000 pounds save for Rubicon or any level with max tow. And if you don't know whether or not you have that - I could say something but it might tick off Jay. Even...
  15. Towing Capacity of 2024 Gladiator Willys

    My point is why should they????! I guess you misunderstand the relationship. Options do NOT change towing, only payload and only model differences change towing. All Rubicon have the same tow rating so why put it on a sticker! You are talking apples and oranges. Max tow is more like a different...
  16. Well, it wasnt the lifter tick I thought it was (Updated)

    What? For the short term? What's that even mean? It actually gets them CREDITS, but yet, it had to be enabled during testing to earn those credits. GM got through or past the fines by using those credits to buy their way out of fines instead of using cash. From a web study - not technically...
  17. What Did You THINK Was Wrong w/ Your Gladiator, But Wasn’t?

    Happens a LOT on vehicles with power brakes if: The check valve leaks down - is faulty or OLD or The vacuum booster is old or leaky. The difference? The prior non-TIP systems didn't have a rheostat for a brake pedal switch. And you didn't even have to press the pedal to start them. The NSS was...
  18. Towing Capacity of 2024 Gladiator Willys

    They never have shown the towing capacity. Ever. The payload is shown ONLY because it varies with the specific combination of accessories and options. That's the one and only reason. Otherwise they could simply say "look in the book". Tow ratings do not vary with specific factory options...
  19. Well, it wasnt the lifter tick I thought it was (Updated)

    What's that got to do with the PUG cam issues? The PUG engine failures have zip to do with bearings or bushings. Other companies, including GM, have used needle bearings for lifters and rockers for decades. But these are not bearing/bushing failures at all. The rollers on these don't fail...
  20. Well, it wasnt the lifter tick I thought it was (Updated)

    We don't know real numbers, all the internet can do is speculate and claim to know. We also don't know what's been done or not done for cam treatment. .. only guess and speculate. (Actually, guess, since we don't have enough data to even speculate.)
