I agree with Another_Jeep. If you are parked on a slight incline, bed down, if there's a door seal leak, the water will run under the plastic trim and collect in the floor board(s). And yes, check the rear window. I had that issue too...but, the water collected INSIDE the roof shell and not in...

I also have the BlueOx set up with my stock Overland. My ball is bolted up in the third and fourth holes from the top. The trailer place I bought my trailer and WDH from did the set up. It's really a great system. Helps tremendously with controlling sway too. I once measured how much droop I...

My 2021 Venture Sonic SN220VRB is 27' long and with everything we want or need is right around 5,100 lbs. Here's the floor plan. Really LOVE the outdoor kitchen...can cook stuff without the inside smelling for days with the results of a good meal and the cooked grease from it, involved. My stone...

I wouldn't go much bigger, especially in weight...with your tires (and even if you re-geared) your towing capacity has decreased from the original factory rating. Please keep that in mind. What you have is probably good enough for you and your family (don't know) but, going bigger might not be...

I have InsurAAAnce and switched to it because my last company had really raised my rates as they're branching out across the country (New Jersey Manufacturers) and need to pay for all those TV ads. My insurance went up by $300 this year...I'm sure because of the usual 'inflation' but also...

I once brought around 1,400 lbs of hardwood flooring home in my stock Overland and squat was minimal (maybe to even distribution of weight?) not once, but three times and, the second and third times, I had a utility trailer hooked up with nearly the same amount in it as well...both my truck bed...

I saw a news article about a woman who just turned 25 today...physically 100 years old but only has had 25 'birthdays' :)

So, because today ONLY comes once every four years, if we buy a new Gladiator TODAY, 29 February 2024, does that mean that one year of the warranty will be gone on February 29th, 2028? So, then, three years of warranty (unless you exceed the 36K mileage requirement), your warranty would expire...

I would worry more about that supercharger than anything. The lower end of the 3.6 Pentastar can't really handle the extra ponies that the supercharger will be putting out. I know a guy in my area, who services pools, who put a supercharger in his Gladiator and after around 20K miles began...

When I got my Gladiator back in 7/19 (ordered 5/19, built 6/19) I read the owners manual from stem to stern. I wanted to be sure I knew how things worked, and the strengths and limitations of my new truck. I feel that for any owner, it's a required read. I remember when I had a motorcycle, MOM...

Insurance will cover it. Just file a claim. You have to get an estimate from a shop (or stealership) first so the insurance company can contact them to confirm the cost of repairs. I had a fuzzy woodland critter chew on mine too, nearer the trailer hookup (which caught fire, briefly) and my...

You shouldn't even worry it's back there. I tow a 27' Vantage Sonic SN220VRB that is around 5,100 lbs with all we want or need with my Overland which is stone stock. Just me and the Bride. it handles it just fine. even when the temps outside got close to 100F, engine and trans temps were just fine.

That seems awfully heavy for only a 24' trailer. I could see that weight if it were built in the late 60's or up to at least the early 80s when they started making trailers lighter to help with fuel economy and allow the anemic engines of the day to still be able to move it. Growing up, we had...

@ShadowsPapa It was the distributor that killed that timing chain. I meticulously changed the oil every 5K miles and used Mobile 1. When I tried to replace that distributor (it was the second one I replaced) I had everything lined up...top dead center, the whole schmegeggie...but I could NOT get...

The bulk of that was labor ☹ ☹ ☹ Apparently it's not as easy as we think...they had it two days because the first attempt it still leaked and they had to get yet another part, ergo the second day. So, now, no runs, drips, or (HOPEFULLY) errors. I remember like 20 years ago, when I had my '96...

Just remember, without the factory tow package, you will still be limited to around 4,500 lbs. Two reasons...one, the factory tow package gives you a higher output alternator. Additionally, you get a higher capacity cooling fan for the radiator over the regular one you get without the factory...

Also known as Taxachusetts ;) ;) ;)

My local stealership (where I bought BOTH of my Jeeps, my Gladiator...ordered 5/19, built 6/19, delivered 7/19 and my 2019 Grand Cherokee Ltd., bought 7/19) charges $180/hour. I recently had to have the passenger door seal on my Gladiator replaced because water was leaking past it and filling...

So, to update... Took it to the stealership yesterday (1/23) and told them where I observed the water running down into the truck by the rear part of the front passenger door. The little drain thingy just under the roof line was working fine but, the water was basically bypassing the door seals...

Doesn't really matter...get the best one you can afford but, realize that without the factory tow package, you're only going to be able to tow (LEGALLY) 4,500 lbs (if it's an automatic).
