  1. Cam failure question/poll

    welp, I am now replacing Right side Intake again. this is replacement #5. I installed the Magnuson SC at 60k miles. I also started racing the truck in Baja after the 3rd cam replacement. I picked mine up Oct. 30, 2020. #1 - 58,000 - LH #2 - 75,000 - RH + new long block (was told to order a new...
  2. Full Size Gladiator?

    I have both a 2020 JT and 2021 Raptor (first year of gen 3). So when I think about a slightly bigger JT there are a few metrics I do care about. Fist would be to lengthen the bed to a proper 6ft from the current 5.5. this would result in longer rear control arms which will provide much better...
  3. Metal 3D printed Bypass shocks at SEMA

    For anyone at SEMA, check out the JT in booth 24401 (Future Tech) - metal 3D printed bypass shocks with integrated cooling fins!
  4. Long Arm vs. Short Arm...for my specific usage

    I dont believe Teraflex's claim on 16in of travel, not with their springs having a free length of 24in and compressing to about 10in. I've also tested Rock Krawler, Clayton, and Synergy springs with an at best travel of about 13.5in Getting long travel out of the rear is not impossible, but...
  5. Why do we have larger diameter rotors IN THE REAR?

    regarding the initial question, it is possible to have bigger diameter rotors (outer diameter specifically), yet have less rotor area that is used in the braking process. I did a detailed comparison on a D60 (Dynatrac) which uses F-150 rear disks vs. the D44 and the D44 actually had more surface...
  6. New: Ultimate Dana 60 Semi-Float Rear Axle for JT Gladiator

    Alrighty, I took the measurements of the actual area of the rotor that is used for braking. The JT has more surface area than the F150 brake parts on the Dynatrac 60. The D60 rotor looks almost the same size, but it is, per spec, 5mm bigger in diameter. Both calipers look almost identical, both...
  7. New: Ultimate Dana 60 Semi-Float Rear Axle for JT Gladiator

    I've only replaced them with OEM mopar parts. Part of the cause is rooted in the variable valve lift mechenism. For the D44 were you more worried about max torque to the axle or max carry capacity? Torque should be no issue, the torque it sees in 4 low is significantly higher than what you...
  8. New: Ultimate Dana 60 Semi-Float Rear Axle for JT Gladiator

    first was at 58k (Driver), then another at 76 (passenger), then another at 103 (passenger), and finally 105 (driver).
  9. New: Ultimate Dana 60 Semi-Float Rear Axle for JT Gladiator

    I've towed 6000 lbs to Burning Man and back, over 1100 miles round trip, raced my truck over 1300 miles in Baja and drove home - all on the same D44 with 4.56 gears and supercharged. Only ever had 1 issue with the rear when I was hitting whoops in Baja and passing raptors, I chipped the ring...
  10. New: Ultimate Dana 60 Semi-Float Rear Axle for JT Gladiator

    For my 44 I have the rock Krawler pro-x upgrade. So I get rid of the track bar and can really tuck the rear, with 37's and still have 2+ inches before rubbing the tires. However, I also had to chop my exhaust because I would bash right through it. With my current shocks I'm at 16in of rear wheel...
  11. New: Ultimate Dana 60 Semi-Float Rear Axle for JT Gladiator

    Found info on Brakes, Rear for the JT they are 345mm x 22mm thick JT spec sheet: https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/2020-jeep-gladiator-specifications-sheet-feature-availability.8468/ Ford F150 Rears are 336mm x 20mm thick or 350mm X 24mm Spec sheet...
  12. New: Ultimate Dana 60 Semi-Float Rear Axle for JT Gladiator

    the F150 brakes are not that much bigger, marginal increase in rotor diameter at best, and if you look at the OD and ID of the rotor brake area vs. the D44, the D44 has, what looks like more surface area. I have a Dynatrac 60 semi-float, is it weighs 440 lbs. I'll take brake measurements tonight...
  13. New: Ultimate Dana 60 Semi-Float Rear Axle for JT Gladiator

    I picked up a dynatrac 60 semi float and decided not to install it as I lose about 3 inches of wheel travel. 2in on the uptrave and 1in down travel (down travel is easy to solve, but cannot solve for uptravel). In the end it's fine because the D44 I have has held up for over 105k miles...
  14. I joined the 100,000 mile club!!

    For me, it's when I'm off-roading on fast, whooped out trails. I think it's a combination of the higher RPM's (typically dont go above 4500) and sloshing of the oil in the pan resulting in partial oil starvation. However, when keeping an eye on oil pressure it maintains 70+ psi and doesn't drop...
  15. I joined the 100,000 mile club!!

    nice, I'm at 108k miles with th 6MT, but now going thorugh my 4th intake cam, and replacing the left exhaust lifters and followers. Last cam replacement was right side at 100k. It is clear to me now that the engine does not like being above 3k rmp for very long, at all.
  16. JEEP STOLEN FROM SAN DIEGO. What next to secure? any and all ideas are welcome

    I have this iny Raptor, and the race team I work with has it in all their trucks. My Raptor was broken into, no forced entry, and my dash was torn apart. I was lucky to have the Revelco because that truck would have been long gone. A buddy of mine has a TRX, and his got stollen out of valet...

    the new Ramcharger is pretty gnarly, but heavy as hell!
  18. KO3 or Ridge Grappler

    I love my KO2's and am excited for the KO3's. It was a challenge to balance at first, but the rims were also cheaper than the new methods I put on. Balancing with the methods was fine. I also run load E on my 37's because of the racing and high speed desert trails/jumps I do. my old 35's were C...
