Is there a list of manuals available through a TechAuthority subscription? Last time I was there (months ago) I could not find the 3-D wiring diagrams for a 2023 JT. I saw the block diagrams but not the 3-D renderings of where the modules/harnesses/connectors are located or the...
A little gloating over the competition:
Here is TFLoffroad video where they are testing the '24 Tacoma and Colorado. Something snaps on the Tacoma and it loses 4wd at about 10 minutes into the video. This was pretty light duty four wheeling but he was giving it some gas with it grabbing and...
I installed some new Bilstein shocks recently but decided to remove them and put Fox 2.0's back on it. The lower rear shock bushing sleeves (both sides) got crushed when I installed them. I used a torque wrench so it shouldn't have been from excessive torque but they are a mess. The Fox shocks...
Cross winds make it hard to keep my JT in my lane on the highway. I am thinking that a stiffer steering stabilizer would help and hope to get some advice. It is a stock '23 Rubicon. No lift, stock tires. Question 1: Will it help? Question 2: where can I find any data about how much stiffer any...
Before I go to the dealer about a throttle lag and inconsistency problem and get told by them that "it is normal" or "no problem found", I'd like to hear from you all about what is or is not normal.
Just off idle, like when taking off slowly, my throttle is inconsistent. If I touch it to start...
Many of the torque specs for the front end are ## lb-ft + ## degrees. Are there equivalent specs that are JUST lb-ft? I'd like to check the factory torque on everything but it is not possible to "check" it when degrees is part of the spec. I'd have to loosen then re-torque and turn the specified...
I thought I'd hook up my Autel MS906BT to my new Jeep today to see what it could do. Apparently not much without a special cable and an internet connection to authorize access through autoauth.com. I don't mind using a special cable but a diagnostic tool that requires internet access to work is...
I bought front and rear Fox 2.0 shocks for my JT. 985-24-171 and 985-24-219. The bushing sleeves (the metal tubes) are narrower than those of the stock shocks by 0.050-0.0625" and I am warping the shock towers and brackets when I am torqueing them down. Is this how it is supposed to be?
Does anyone have empirical or official technical data on the effect of running the 3.6L at >2800rpm for long periods of time? I ask because I am looking at re-gearing and am wondering how low I can go before significantly reducing the life of the engine or the valve train if on the highway at...
2023 Rubicon with an automatic, stock tires. I know I can "manually" shift gears but is there a way to just lock out upper gears (or just 8th) and have it shift though the lower gears like it usually does? This is how the "manual selection" feature works on my Ram. There are times that I'd like...
I keep reading and seeing pictures about bubbling paint on and around hinges and at edges of body panels. It is just hard to tell whether something is a common problem or if it is being amplified by the forums. Or have these problems been fixed recently (2022 or 2023 model year). Factually there...
Is the ride quality of the Mojave really all that much better than the Rubicon on the road (both completely stock)? I've test driven both but it's not like I have railroad tracks to blast over or a field of potholes to traverse to really test out a suspension, much less any jumps to fly over...
I don't own one yet but I was looking through the 2023 Gladiator owner's manual and it says for vehicles equipped with rear only Tru-Lok that it will only activate in 4H, versus those with front and rear Tru-Lok that will activate only in 4L. Mojave has rear only so does this mean it won't lock...
