  1. 2020 Fails to Start One in 40-50 Starts

    So the shop did replace both batteries and the problem was still there. They are pretty convinced the security gateway module may be bad and that we should take it to a dealership. The truck is a daily driver and gets plenty of use. I'm going to try doing some testing this weekend without the...
  2. 2020 Fails to Start One in 40-50 Starts

    I have a 2020 Sport S (heavily modified) that fails to start around once every 40-50 times. Press the start button and things come online but the engine will not start. Press the remote start button and it honks twice but does not start. The problem started back in the Fall. We were up on top of...
  3. Death Wobble

    I have a 2015 JK with about 75k miles and started having bad steering issues a few months ago. Not death wobble, but the steering was so loose it didn't feel safe at highway speeds. Replaced the entire steering setup with Synergy. Tie rod, drag link, track bar, and added track bar/sector shaft...
  4. Death Wobble

    With only 20k miles I was told it couldn't be the ball joints. The only factory steering part we have left is the tie rod, which I don't think is contributing. Moving up to remote reservoir King shocks soon. Originally went with a Rancho lift that was basically all garbage components. Only...
  5. Death Wobble

    Will definitely have an alignment printout after next week. Will post results here.
  6. Death Wobble

    I'm an "okay" diagnostician. I've learned a LOT about Jeep suspension and steering in the past few months. But I'm at the point where I don't know what could be causing bump-steer and death wobble. Originally when the bump-steer showed itself I assumed it needed a track bar bracket and flipped...
  7. Death Wobble

    I'll adjust the sway bar links today. I actually just re-did the passenger link this morning. The AntiRocks weren't compatible with the SteerSmarts track bar bracket. So I swapped the bottom of the link with an end from Clayton Off-road. Below is the current configuration. I'm having a 4WD shop...
  8. Death Wobble

    Only things replaced with the lift were the rear sway bar links (front already had AntiRocks), all four shocks, all four springs, front upper and lower control arms and track bar. Factory steer stabilizer was removed. Since then we've tightened the control arm jam nuts, swapped the Rancho...
  9. Death Wobble

    I have a 2020 JT and have been chasing a death wobble problem ever since going from a 2" spacer lift to a 3" Rancho lift. Originally got the wrong part for the new steer stabilizer, so ran without one for a few weeks. Noticed a bad death wobble stemming from bump-steer. Installed a Fox 2.0...
  10. Gladiator without LED lights

    The stock lights without LEDs are garbage. That being said a $60 replacement bulb fixes the issue, that's what I did. One thing I don't like about the JL/JT is the headlight housing is different. You can no longer get a decently priced set of headlights because it has to come with a whole new...
  11. Admit it. Now that you own a JT, JKU's aren't necessary!

    JKUs still have their market. Most people don't really need a truck. In my family we have a 2-door, a 4-door (both JKs) and the JT. In the past month we've taken all three through Black Bear Pass, Imogene, Engineer, and the rest. The wheelbase on the JT is significant. The switchbacks on Black...
  12. Sport S, no lift w/ 34.4 x 12.7 Nitto Ridge Grappler -- thoughts on aesthetic and ride

    Looks fine without the lift, but it won't perform off road. Any kind of flex will rub the heck out of the fenders. We're currently running a 2" spacer lift and the front still rubs when disconnected and flexing. Next on our upgrade list is the American Adventure Labs fender mod which creates...
  13. How long do you plan to keep this truck?

    My wife and I each drive JK's (her a 2012 JKU me a 2015 2-door). We bought the Gladiator for her to use as a daily driver as her 2012 is getting a little long in the tooth. Our JKs are pure rock crawlers. We wanted the Gladiator for road trips and overlanding, so we're being more conservative on...
  14. FlashCal for Jeep Not Working

    Thanks, I'd planned on calling them today or tomorrow. I just wanted to make sure I hadn't done anything obviously wrong.
  15. FlashCal for Jeep Not Working

    I have a FlashCal F5 that I purchased about a year ago meaning to use it with a JK but I never did. Over the weekend I opened the box, did the software update, and tried using it on my Gladiator. I can't get past the "Please call customer service" message. It lets me select 2020 Gladiator, then...
  16. Another Badge of honor trail in mostly stock sport Gladiator. Imogene pass

    Nice! We're taking our brand new Sport-S up to Black Bear, Imogene, Engineer, etc. in about three weeks along with my 2015 JK. The Gladiator will have a 2" lift by then, and has 35" tires and a new bumper on it now. Winch is on the way as well.
  17. Took Delivery of Your JT? Sign in Here!

    Just took delivery of a 2020 Sport-S in Phoenix weekend before last. Took it directly to the tire shop and had 35" Milestar Patagonias put on that we brought with us. Then directly to Table Mesa trail just north of Phoenix, and Schnebly Hill trail out of Sedona the next day. All before driving...
