As I mentioned, I spent hours and hours and hours reading about GMRS radios and installation. The antenna that I am using is a "no ground plane" antenna and the Midland antenna page has lots of pictures of this model antenna mounted on jeeps that were not lip mounts. The set-up that I have now...

Here's how I mounted my antenna using a ditch light mounting bracket and a ditch light extension for the antenna to be mounted on. I just have gotten my GMRS radio installed a few days ago. I just posted the build list, source and price for everything along with lots of pictures. If you are...

I recently bought a GMRS radio since they are popular with the Jeep crowd and seem to be a better option than a CB radio. I went with a 50 watt Wouxun (pronounced "ocean") since it had a lot more features than midland for the exact same price. It has a built-in fan, THREE speakers, and all...

My first thought was: "Looks like a Bronco copy". I wonder if this will have Independent Front Suspension like the Bronco? From what I've read lately the Bronco is subtracting from Jeep Wrangler/Gladiator sales and that is believable and not too far fetched that they'd copy the design. I...

I don't have a lot of experience with GMRS radios aside using hand helds a few times. I've decided to get a mobile for my truck and have done a lot of reading about it. I've decided to get the Wouxun (pronounced ocean) Kg 1000 g plus. It's a 50 watt that cost almost exacly the same as the...

I took these 2023 Rubicon factory tires and rims off at just under 29,000 miles. They've been rotated & balanced every 5000 miles by discount tire after one dealership rotation. Very even tread wear on all four. Wheels are as new and have never been around rocks. There were recently balanced...

Thanks for posting this good idea. I'm going to make a note to get four of these and maybe more. Ryobi used to make awesome rotary hammer drills and other tools. It seems their tool quality has went way down. I bought a power sprayer for $94 to spray weeds and climbing vines in the back yard...

What bothered me is that you said that the oil I asked about "doesn't meet the spec" when I was pretty sure that you didn't know that as a fact. I think the exact Mobile oil is pretty close to the same thing as the Amsoil efm product. Amsoil isn't "approved" with Chrysler and Mobile isn't...

I noticed it wasn't on your list - although amsoil is. I'm curious, can you tell me in what ways does it not meet the specs? Not being snide or facetious, I'd just like to know what areas it is lacking? Or do you just mean it doesn't have the approval (just like amsoil on your list)? I can't...

what do you think about Mobil Delvac 1 ESP 5W-40 Full Synthetic Heavy Duty Diesel Engine Oil ? It seems to cover everything , including sulphated ash level. I bet that the SAP level is lower than the amount in Pennzoil Platinum Euro 5W-40 (who hides the SAPS levels from the general public)...

I just recently had a local shop put the ARB m220 rear axle cover on my Jeep Gladiator Rubicon. After looking at what all was available the ARB model seemed to be the best and had my main requirement: a lower drain hole. I liked that it has TWO magnets : the drain plug and also the dip stick...

I'm still looking for a set of new AT Rubicon or Mohave Takeoffs. I'm also looking to buy a spare wheel that has a new falken AT tire on it.

I've got a diesel and when I ordered it I didn't get the adaptive cruise because my experience with that on a Toyota Tacoma TRD PRO was not good when I changed the ride height. I barely changed the ride height by adding a camper top and helper springs and this caused adaptive cruise to stop...

I understand that Kendall has been around a long time - that doesn't make me feel any better about the situation. I also understand that it doesn't meet the Jeep MS-12991 spec that Jeep recommends. It does meet the minimum API SN spec but the bottom line for me is that it doesn't meet the...

Hey Everyone, I thought I'd relay something that I found out this past week. I took my Jeep Gladiator Rubicon Diesel to Chronic in Griffin for one of my free oil changes. I usually change the oil at a dealership at 6,000 miles and then have a local shop change it with my own oil the next...

I am wondering if this new grill Mopar Rubicon 20th Anniversary Grille With Front Camera Option will reduce the coolant temperature/oil temperature? Supposedly the grill was designed to allow in more cooling air and I am just wondering if there is an actual and noticeable difference in...

I'm looking to buy a set of new take-offs (Tires & Wheels) from a Rubicon or Mojave that are AT (all terrain). Also looking for a spare with new tire, I currently have MT tires and I'd like to replace them with AT's for my usual driving here in Georgia. I'd like to have my current MTs as...

That doesn't sound too bad. I was thinking it would be twice that. I definitely need to get that for my truck. Thanks for making this post and I guess I could say it is inspirational.

Good to know, thanks! Do you mind saying what the new grill costs? I'm betting they are expensive. I would need one that has the spot for the forward facing camera. I wonder how much of an additional cooling affect this actually has.
