Not a specific Gladiator question (I just changed the thermostat in my '16 3.6 Wrangler) but the same should apply to both of my 3.6 Jeeps. Anyway, I keep reading everywhere that you have to be careful about air bubbles in the cooling system and it is best to jack the front of the Jeep up when...

I must say, had a wonderful time there in Daytona Beach last week (arrived Thurday and left Sunday 26 Apr 2026). I just wish we had gone a day or two earlier. It's an absolutely great time and the obstacle course was fun. There was an off-site obstacle course (Cracker Ranch) that everyone raved...

How does Stellantis expect anyone looking to build a Gladiator to used the specs on their website? For example, Towing Capacity (there are other things that also don't make sense but let's look at towing capacity). When you do the "Display Model Comparison" thing and compare models it lists...

I'm not a shill or anything for HF but they do have the Apex 12000 this week on their "Spring Black Friday Sale" for $479. It may be even less with their credit card offer. I know a lot of people here have them and I have one on my JTR. I am very pleased with mine, especially at the price.

Ok, not for my JTR but for my '16 JKU. I find the people here, in many cases, more helpful and knowledgeable. If you don't mind me asking, looking to upgrade the stock, standard radio (base OEM radio) and I see a lot of comments, information here about Crutchfield. Anyone have any experience...

It appears the US is getting a new Dakota, perhaps very similar to the one sold in Brasil (at least that is what I have been reading here at times). If that is the case and the US Dakota will be based on something already in production, as opposed to a "new from the ground up" vehicle, does...

I did my requisite searches here before posting but I happened to see a couple of Libertys at the food store today and the 3.7 badge on the rear. We all know about the 3.6 bashing that goes on here but in some searches for the 3.7, I don't see any real issues with it, at least where I was...

Then the logical question, at least in my mind, is why not the 5.7 or 6.4 V8 in the Gladiator that everyone here keeps talking about? There has to be some other reason. By definition, the weight and towing capacities are greater on the Gladiator so have I missed something on an earlier thread or...

On all of these oil threads about who's is bigger and lasts longer and whatever, it's great to hear "I got 10 million miles on this, or 5 million miles on that or 8 million miles on oil I bought from the dollar store that I only change on leap years". What would be more meaningful (at least to...

For anyone interested in the HF 12000 lb. Apex, I see it is being offered as part of the one-day special thing at HF for $399 (synthetic or steel cable) on Tue 23 December 2025. That's $180 off the regular price. Hard to beat that deal on a good winch.

So as not to hijack the 392 Hemi thread (60 pages at this point) that has gone in so many different directions, I still do not understand if it is a Stellantis thing or just us people that are creating a lot of confusions, conspiracy theories, or whatever. Perhaps a bit of both. I see that the...

Wife and I are completing about 10 days here all over Australia and I'm still shocked about how few Jeeps we have seen. We do travel a lot and see Jeeps in many countries but expected to see many here in Australia, especially the Outback. Well folks, got to tell you, after driving about 1,500...

Not to hi-jack another thread, but an OP is looking to get stiffer springs for his Max Tow and was asking about the Rubicon. I had this "bright" idea in my mind that the Max Tow already has stiffer springs and then I thought a Max Tow with the steel winch bumper group would offer even stiffer...

I have 2 of the 3.6's in my Jeeps (JTR and JKU) and was just wondering if the "tick tick" ever develops, is a swap to the 4 cylinder turbo feasible? Maybe I have missed it, but I haven't seen this topic mentioned. Since the 4 seems to be very reliable (so far) and people seem to like it, could...

I have the 3.6 in both my '16 JKU and '24 JTR and overall never felt underpowered. However, other than towing my boat (total 6,000 lbs. on trailer) for two trips of about 4 miles each way with the JTR, I have never really put either to the test in anything approaching a need for more power than...

I know quite a few of us 'poor folk' here have decided to save some money (as I did) and get the HF Apex 12000 winch. Just as an FYI, I see it advertised this week at 30% off the regular price (which is $599 here where I live). Anyway, that's about $420 for the winch. Not a bad price by any...

I read about all the battery stories here (thinking about my 2024 JTR) and I just wonder if I am lucky or if batteries simply don't last as long today. My wife had a new 2015 BMW (model 320i, the least expensive model in the US at the time) that we bought in Sept 2014. She drove it until we...

I hope this doesn't show my ignorance for asking (although it's easy to do), but people here often talk about their transmission shifting between gears (7 to 6, 6 to 5, etc.) when towing, especially uphill or with heavier loads. Maybe I haven't read through whatever Jeep manual there is online...

I know this topic has been commented on ad nauseam but I was just looking at the Jeep website and you select Gladiators and you click on "Build and Price." Choose either 2024 or 2025 and when you take the model comparison option, it shows the tow capacity as 6k for the Mojaves and 7k for the...

Backround: I have been driving jeeps with half doors for the past 35 years. I still have a '99 TJ and '16 JKU, both with factory half doors. I would have purchased them for the '24 JTR I recently bought but of course they are not offered, not even the dual door group. Since I do like the open...
