  1. Being denied warranty work because I didn't buy there

    This is unfortunately common with the corrosion issues. There is a fast growing Facebook group with nearly 11,000 members full of horror stories. Dealers are not being incentivized well enough to want to do the work. Generally only dealers with their own body shop are likely to do it. The group...
  2. Anyone going NC to Utah end of March?

    A few things you might hit on the way to Moab from Page are Monument Valley, Valley of the Gods, Mexican Hat, and Moki Dugway. If you go up 163/261 there are tons of hikes and ruins to see all around the Cedar Mesa area.
  3. My insurance went up

    We just switched to State Farm to get lower rates. I am down to four cars and one camper on the policy. Unfortunately two of the cars are driven by under 21 year old sons and both are R/T Challengers. I did get a decent discount since they are away at college. They also both qualify for good...
  4. Quake LED Releases New HDX Fender Chop Kit For ALL Gladiator Trim Levels!

    My Quakes have been perfectly reliable so far. No complaints at all. I appreciate the added clearance and the Jeep looks much better than with the stock setup. I didn't install the screw. Just used a bit of epoxy.
  5. Gator Green Rocklander Build

    What else does one need? :CWL:
  6. Offset of -18 or greater

    Hey Shane - I answered over on FB but I'll post here as well to get it in the thread for future reference. Nitto 37 x 12.5 x 17. Riding on 9" wheels with a 4.25" backspace giving about -19 offset. Measured about a 3" poke. Post fender chop.

  8. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    It's a roaming plan. I did a post this evening with some more details. https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/converted-starlink-to-12v-to-use-less-power.72829/
  9. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    In addition to the Starlink 12v conversion I added an ice maker the other day! :CWL: It runs on 12v. Happy wife, happy camping! Or something like that. Will provide some ice for my rum or whiskey drink at night as well as keep my wife's water cold. The wood pieces it sits on are attached to...
  10. Converted Starlink to 12V to use less power

    I recently put in a 100ah lithium battery system with a 40 amp dcdc charger. My two main draws are the fridge and Starlink (with occasional use of the ice maker as well). The Starlink uses a lot of ac power. It can be converted to dc power for a significant savings in draw as well as savings...
  11. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Installed a Yakima Road Shower to replace my Joolca. The Joolca worked OK but requires a lot of stuff: hoses, pump, propane, etc. The Yakima stores some of my water and is super easy and reliable. Gonna give it a full test in Utah soon.
  12. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Installed the Quake lights for a fender chop. Put in Metalcloak liners. Love the look and should be able to remove a bump stop all the way around.
  13. Is this a ground point and how do I use it?

    Found it! I had the diagrams to look for the ground points from the beginning. I was still looking in the wrong place! Gotta use my reading glasses. :CWL: The ground point that I was looking for is behind the plastic trim by the seatbelt. All good now.
  14. Is this a ground point and how do I use it?

    I looked at the diagram of ground points to find a good place for my new lithium battery setup. It shows one about in the middle of the rear passenger side door on the driver's side. What I found is a connector that works a lot like one of the door electrical disconnects that you use when you...
  15. Would you still do the Genesis Dual Battery?

    I wish that they were accurate. I just had both of mine replaced under warranty after 18 months. Nowhere near 500 cycles unfortunately. Not sure if that is the norm or an unusual case. Neither was drawn down below 50% on any occasion I believe. At least they were replaced without any problems...
  16. Would you still do the Genesis Dual Battery?

    OP should definitely do his own research on lithium vs agm. There are a lot of reasons that the vast majority of overlanders choose lithium for a second battery system. They are not for use under the hood due to engine heat as most know. They are not tied into the main electrical system either...
  17. Would you still do the Genesis Dual Battery?

    Love their products. The one I put on my hood is only 35 watts though. It helps but not as much as the ones for other models.
  18. Would you still do the Genesis Dual Battery?

    If you consider a Bluetti or similar be sure to look into charging rates. They don't tend to charge nearly as quickly as a dcdc charger going to a stand alone battery. Also look into lithium batteries that can self heat. More $$ but looks like they can solve the cold weather problem in my...
  19. Would you still do the Genesis Dual Battery?

    If we didn't go so far away from help I would possibly only put in the lithium house battery. Going remote as we do I would still put in both systems. Would have to do some more research into other options to get rid of the aux battery before deciding for certain though. I am putting the...
