I am pretty much a novice where lifts are concerned but I went with the ReadyLift Terrain Flex 4 Arm kit because it included shocks and lower arms, plus it retained the factory rear springs which was important to me for towing. I was not able to get a good feel for how the rear springs in other...
After putting my doors back on today I was having trouble with some of the driver door functions. The driver's side door lock switch did not work and the truck did not realize the driver door was installed. However the power windows worked and the remote key fob worked.
As it turns out I must...
I have the tan cloth on billet silver and I really like the look.
I am worried about staining... I hadn't considered the havoc Carolina red clay would have on it. Maybe I'll call the dealer back and buy the finish protection/insurance plan!
Also have the #hotheads oak headliners. They are...
I believe that is a Sport S with Max Tow... it has the integrated daytime running lights in the fenders and the stock tires look like the Dueler A/Ts that come with the Max Tow package.
BTW... your rig looks a lot better with the lift! It makes a big difference in my opinion.
Thanks! I'm very pleased with the ride and noise level of the Ridge Grapplers.
I think I need some step rails just to catch some of the road debris since the tire protrude a little over an inch.
Picked up my girl today...
Before: Sport S with Max Tow and factory wheels/tires
After: Sport S Max Tow, NO lift. 17" Method NVs and 285 75x17 Ridge Grapplers. Removed forward mud guards.
No rubbing on blacktop so far.
My JT is on the slow train to.... NC. I live outside of Charlotte and everytime I check on the status I get something like "the train will get to Winston Salem tomorrow" sort of like the signs at the fishing piers that say the fish will be biting tomorrow.
Anyway, we have had our stocker Sahara...
Irrational and ignorant question time!
Is there any merit to the idea of going lease instead of purchase to protect against the potential failure of the Gladiator?
With residual values so high, it makes for a nice hedge.
Thoughts?
Mine arrives at the railyard in NC today... yay! The GM that I am working with said that he has asked several times if he could come pick up vehicles but the FCA logistics folks tell him no.
I wouldn't mind waiting a few days but he recieved notification from his FCA rep that they have switched...
The tracker just found my build and sticker 6/18 and 6/19 respectively. However it "Shipped" on 6/17. Best bet for updates is your sales rep or dealer or at least that was my experience.
@steffen707 that was my plan. I will at least see was it does on blacktop with the tires before I put the leveling kit on. I doubt I will try trails before the lift though.
I will post pics and findings in a couple of weeks... I hope.
I have a Sport S Max Tow on the way and have my 285 75/17 Ridge Grappler wheel/ tires ready to install. I plan to install a 1.5" leveling kit.
Any thoughts or concerns on drivability while hauling 400 to 500 lbs of dirt bikes (like the ads ) or hauling a 4000 lbs boat?
Limited wheeling on Green...
