It is significant, I did not weigh them, but I had to really put my back into it to lift the old ones. The new ones are like lifting a normal truck tire.
If I am.picking up what you are laying down, I don't think forged internals would of saved this failure.
I am just hypothesizing, but my guess, is you had adhesive in a couple places, it could of even been what prompted the cam failures by clogging the VVL solenoids. When the cams started to...
I am not sure what the bearing construction is in these engines but usually a rod bearing has a copperish glitter color. That looks like straight iron or aluminum
The rotating assembly is not usually what is going to let you down. The valvetrain and throttle control model are where mist of the problems lie, and then that is compounded by sloppy assembly practices
Another of us have had good luck, but chrysler has made the throttle a super bar puzzle. The key is having Uber safety measures in the tune to release the pressure when stuff goes sideways. I have that, but for whatever reason, it did not save Ryan. I have a guy that hooked a super heavy trailer...
I am running the mopar lift with aftermarket track bars and drag link. The shocks that came with it were OK on road, but really did not hold up well off road medium speed stuff, Midwest forest trails. I know it did not help I use my truck lime a truck towing and hauling too. I switched out to...
I have built in pretty stout torque management on the 850Re. The torque converter should unlock on a down shift and allow the gear to slide in. I actually have been working to make that a smoother transition.
This was complete unexpected as I have about 400 hours of data on this version of...
Well you and others on this forum are pretty cool customers. That is the same attitude I take towards this, but having someone's ride break under your watch, none of us want that. I treat people the way I would want to be treated, and when it is your ride, we need changes and mods when we are...
I knew this was a possibility when I started tuning, and quite frankly why it took me so long to even offer stuff. With the way things were going I got to a point I felt confident enough I had a better solution than anywhere else.
To be honest I am not a business guy and I was never in this to...
NOTE: If you are running my tune and have concerns please contact me. I will be happy to walk you through taking a data log, and I will review the data and give you an honest exanation of how it is performing.
Moderators if you could make this a Sticky I would appreciate it.
To all
I have had a customer running an iteration of my tune on his 2021 Gladiator with a Magnuson supercharger running the standard pulley. The customer was running premium fuel and had all the correct installation steps.
The...
If you read this, Ryan was doing all the right things.
I do not have a root cause for this failure. The usage is entirely normal.
I have stated that 2021s have had some teething issues, but non of my data has shown ignition related issues, it all has been throttle smoothness and over bearing...
I believe he was using my tune. I sent an email.
If that is the case I may be pulling my tunes.
As always I need to get a better understanding of all that has happened.
I did not think this was possible with one of my tunes, see that it plainly is, is very unsettling.
Well I have 6 pictures of proof the 2020 gladiators were assembled incorrectly. The pictures are of 6 different vehicles. Though hindsight 20/20 probably needed a Vin and date in those pics. Rhe pics are just guys asking are these wrong.
I am familiar with it. I have not tried the adaptive reset capability, so I cannot say how effective it is. Things like pedal commanders and throttle modifiers can really mess this portion of the control up. If the adaptive get way off by being reset incorrectly or other signal tweaks, it can...
Fluttering is vague description, but familiar. There is. Ot much the dealership can do besides reset the adaptive learning and recalibrate the throttle, or possibly replace it. The engine is running fine, the throttle can get twitchy AR over active if you do a fair bit of low speed driving. It...
