  1. Thinking about switching to 37s on my daily. Bad idea??

    I have the 37ā€ KO2’s on quite heavy AEV Borahs and Mopar lift on my Rubicon. (I run Nokian LT3 35’s on factory rims in the winter when I do some towing) I think the 37’s are great and definitely wouldn’t regear if not towing. Tazer settings for accurate speedo are 36.5ā€ for the KO2’s, and...
  2. Leaking axle seal?

    Update on my right rear leak: The axle is no longer leaking after removing the restrictive membrane on axle vent.
  3. Leaking axle seal?

    I used brake cleaner and got my right rear dust shield cleaned up. Appears to be a very minor leak. Perhaps the increased venting will prevent future leaks. Not sure how I plan to waterproof the vent (I removed the membrane while inspecting it). Could use k&n filter skin as a membrane, or...
  4. Leaking axle seal?

    I did put the multiple layers of felt pads back in place and so feel comfortable about dust, just not moisture. I think an inadequate vent would always leak from one side only, because the excess pressure is quickly mitigated.
  5. Leaking axle seal?

    Based on your experience, I decided to check my rear diff breather. I removed the hose at the diff and tried to blow through it, impossible. I then removed the top vent assembly and couldn’t blow through it. I then pulled apart the vent assembly. The white membrane looked clean so I ripped...
  6. Rear axle seal leaking - common problem?

    Currently reading all these threads on leaking right rear axle seals… ?? My ā€˜22 Rubicon has only 12,000kms (7500miles) of very easy city miles. Noticed an oily dust shield while underneath the vehicle today. I have no experience with my dealers service department, but I guess I’m going to...
  7. Mopar Trail Rail Cleats

    Added comparison pics to original post. PFCC cleat is a bit shinier. Identical size. Stainless t-bolt is same size but has ridges on underside which don’t effect function.
  8. Mopar Trail Rail Cleats

    I had searched about a year ago for extra Mopar cleats but couldn’t find any, and didn’t want to go with the larger Tacoma cleats people were using. Today I received some Amazon units, a pack of 4 for $50cdn which wasn’t too bad I thought. They appear to be identical and fit perfectly. PFCC...
  9. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Ahhh, farm life! I miss my burning barrel. I’m an old city guy now and have 3 different dumpsters to obediently drag out on the city’s schedule.
  10. My first senior moment.

    Late night boredom, working on motorbikes…. siphoned some gas and decided to top off the Gladiator. Spent an hour searching my extremely organized truck… trying to decide what the most logical place was that I would have stored the factory funnel…. Finally realized it isn’t capless and just...
  11. Any crotchrocket guys?

    Yup, I’m starting to believe my crotch rocket days are gone but just can’t sell my RC8r.
  12. So, what is everybody towing?

    Had to run my sled to the dealer, first opportunity to see that I did indeed install the Mopar brake controller correctly! ?? It’s a 7x14 full aluminum, 3500lbs with two sleds and gear. Was surprised that the factory mirrors seem adequate with the convex I have stuck on them as well.
  13. GRANITE CRYSTAL JT Gladiator Club

    Good choice! Don’t make the same mistake I did… balanced tires before I had the rings, had to rebalance!
  14. Customer Satisfaction Notification "Tailgate Controller"

    I got the notification as well… talked to the service dept. and they told me it must be a mistake because mine has power locks. I figured they were wrong but didn’t feel like arguing that day. I always use my power locks, and not key, so hoping I’m not at risk of failure in the mean time.?!?
  15. Mopar Trail Rail System -- 2 corner screws?

    My factory installed trail rail system on my ā€˜22 Rubicon has all hex heads, including the two at the back.
  16. Is this normal for Mopar 2” lift ??

    Not ideal, but just cosmetic, and easy to spruce up with some paint. The steering wheel is a drag link adjustment and super easy to do yourself.
  17. Airdesign Cab Spoiler - installed photos / feedback / review?

    I really like the cab as is, but that also looks nicely designed!
  18. Adding engine block heater? As simple as a couple PN’s?

    I’m on call, so in the real cold snaps I leave it on.
  19. Adding engine block heater? As simple as a couple PN’s?

    ummm, yeah I was just referring to the installation of the factory heater in the factory location. It works well in the -35°C stuff we get in Saskatchewan.
  20. What did you HAUL in your JT today?

    Realized I’m old and an electric motor may get me out on the trails a bit more. The color match to my truck was a total fluke…!
