So I called a local 4WD shop to inquire about regearing my Gladiator and they cautioned me saying these new Dana 44s are not as strong as the pre-2018 Dana 44s. Apparently they have had a few JL/JTs come back in post gear swap with premature gear wear and axle tubes flexing/walking in the...
I've got about 93K on my 2020 JTR 3.6. I recently noticed a small oil stain on the driveway under my Jeep. The oil is dripping down between the engine and transmission. I know it is highly unlikely to be a rear main seal as the oil is most likely following the block and seeping down the back of...
I installed a Clayton lift on my 2020 Rubicon so the stock parts are just taking up space in my garage. They have 90k miles on them but maybe it can help someone out. The rear track bar is shot but the control arms and springs are in decent shape, albeit with 90k miles on them. I'm willing to...
I removed my 18" Aluminum KB VooDoo rack from my Jeep. It has been well used for 3 or 4 years and shows signs as such. I've drilled new holes, etc. so the paint is not perfect. I have the tonneau cover brackets and the flush mount brackets. Also included are brand new, never used awning mounts...
For sale is my Rugged Ridge bumper. I am replacing it due to clearance issues with my tires when off-roading at full flex. The bumper is structurally perfect with no dents or dings, but it could definitely use a paint job. There is some surface rust just starting to show in spots. The hardware...
For sale is my AWE exhaust. I have both the single side exit tread tail pipe and the high clearance trail tail pipe. The exhaust was on the Jeep for about a year and has about 8,000 miles on it, so it is nice and broken in. Overall, it is in good shape but one of the clamp bolts broke when I was...
So back at the end of July I became a "real Jeeper." Yup, that's right, I got caught in the rain with my top down. The 8.4" screen barely got wet as I was able to pull over and pull my soft top back into place within a minute or 2. Predictably, the touchscreen became useless for the rest of that...
For sale is a Borla S-Type exhaust with dual driver side exit black tips. Also included is a brand new, never used high clearance turndown tip (replaces black side exit tips). The exhaust is in great shape and only has a couple thousand miles on it. Selling because I decided to stick with an AWE...
Thinking about selling my 2020 factory hardtop but I want to see if there is any interest.
FULL DISCLOSURE: The top developed a leak in the rear window as many of the 2020s did. I was already out of warranty so I applied black silicone around the window which solved the problem. I did a pretty...
Gurus, please enlighten me. I am headed down to OBX next week and plan on doing a fair bit of beach cruising. In what direction should I take my Falcon SP2 3.3 shock settings to get the "best" ride? For daily/highway driving I run them set to 2.6 which to me is a firm yet controlled ride...
I am looking to replace the shocks on my 2020 Rubicon. I have just over 50k miles on the truck and recently installed the 2ā AEV spacer lift, Mopar front LCAs, 35x12.5 Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T tires, steel bumper, winch, and a bed rack. I felt the stock suspension was soft but generally ok...
So Iāve noticed some vibration in the last week or so. I know itās not the tires as they are new in the last 3,000 miles and were road force balanced. I crawled under to check the driveshaft and noticed grease sprayed under the truck in a line. even with the carrier between the 2 sections of the...
So I bought a set of 35x12.5 Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/Ts and had them mounted on 17x8.5 Icon Alloy Vector 5 wheels. The package was mounted and balanced by Quadratec and shipped to my house. At highway speeds I had a vibration that was not present prior to the new wheels and tires.
Since I...
For sale are my 2020 Rubicon wheels and tires. They have about 40k miles on them. The wheels are flawless and the tires still have decent tread left in them. The factory spare is also for sale and was never used. The photos with the caliper indicate remaining tread on each tire measured in...
Iāve finally burned through enough of my stock tires to make some changes. Iām planning on going with new wheels, 35s, and a 2ā AEV spacer lift. I also purchased Mopar LCAs from the Mopar lift to correct caster.
Here is my conundrum. I donāt want a lot of tire poke. I also donāt want to limit...
For sale is my Diamondback SE cover and Front Runner load bars. I really like this setup but I am planning on moving to an overland style bed rack. The cover is in pristine condition and works great. I had extra cleats installed on the sides of the cover so there are 8 total as compared to 4...
So I've had my Gladiator about 15 months/28k miles. Today I hopped into the truck and hit the start button, but instead of starting I got the "Key Fob Not Detected" message on the DIC. That was puzzling as the fob was in the little slot between the cup holders. Anyway, I tried again and got the...
I got my Gladiator on Friday and had to get the top off to enjoy the weather before it gets cold. I mangaged to break one of the tabs that holds the defroster plug cover in place and now it won't snap in. Does anyone have a part number or know the exact name of this cover so I can try and find a...
