  1. Driving, making turns with the 4H active, odd behavior

    The binding comes from uneven arcs that was tire takes when you turn. The diffs have the ability to adapt. The transfer case doesnā€™t (full time and AWD excepted here). Backing up in an S shape while gently pushing the shift lever to 2WD will allow the wheels to turn through several different...
  2. Driving, making turns with the 4H active, odd behavior

    Yep. Great way to pop a u-joint or worse. But usually just freaks you out, binds everything up tight, makes it nearly impossible to push the transfer lever back to 2WD, and generally makes you feel stupid. Happens to us all at one time or another. Easy fix , though. Reverse in a S shape while...
  3. Did someone say 1954?

    I never take the SunRider off! Even in our rare 20-something mornings in Atlanta, it is just as warm and no louder than the Freedom Panels I have stashed in the attic.
  4. Did someone say 1954?

    Nice color choice! Here is the 3-B ā€œHigh Hoodā€ that I restored back in the earlyā€™80s. I think it was a 1960 model.
  5. Finally the bed hauling...

    Damn! Why not just strap it on top of the cap?
  6. Georgia Softopper $500 OBO

    Guys. ScootJeep is my son and I can tell you that he ended up trading his JT with the Soft Topper. So itā€™s no longer available. He needed a heavier rig to pull an RV.
  7. Overland Tires?

    I ran that model tire on the Super Duty I used to have. It is exactly what I plan to install if my Wild Peaks ever wear out. I donā€™t need the all terrain for my driving.
  8. Anyone tuned a 6MT?

    Interesting topic. I have a 2020 with the 6MT. Iā€™ve been very happy with the performance, though concerned about the clutch recall (that isnā€™t really a recall since there is no fix). Iā€™m putting my grandson through the Mopar program at the local community technical college. When he gets to the...
  9. Bed covers recommendations?

    I had the Bak Flip folding aluminum cover on my Chevy and was so happy with it that I immediately put one on the Gladiator. Never had water issues! I only removed it when I bought a RLD cap. I highly recommend it!
  10. 6 Speed Manual Regrets?

    60K miles in and no regrets. Course, Iā€™ve been driving for 49 years and have only owned 2 automatics. Didnā€™t like either of them.
  11. Topper MPG

    I installed an RLD stainless cap at about 50K miles. Have noticed no difference at all.
  12. It’s normal???

    Not to worry. My dog pisses on my tie rod, too.
  13. After market steel mopar type bumper

    2 years in and Iā€™m happy with the bumper. The finish has help up well on mine (GA-no salt). I tossed these plates and the tow hooks, too. Kept the hooks from my Sport S bumper.
  14. My DIY bed cap

    Coolā€¦ā€¦.just freaking-ass cool.
  15. Rust on my Nerf bars, remove and paint or start shopping?

    My NFabs are going strong after 4 years (Atlanta area- no snow or salt in that time). If they ever do break down, Iā€™ll wire wheel the hell out of them and spray with aerosol bed liner. Same for my eBay Rubi-steel front bumper.
  16. Best Xmas Decoration Everrrrrrr

    Andā€¦ā€¦. While ā€˜ole Fatso is away, the Elves playā€¦..
  17. Best Xmas Decoration Everrrrrrr

    And this is when old Santa got to the ER:
  18. Evolution.... where did you start? Or is the Gladiator your first Jeep?

    Yep. Loved that M715 truck. For those not familiar with it, it was the original Jeep convertible pickup šŸ¤£ here is a stock internet photo. Also one of the M151A1 that I referenced. The ā€œMuttā€ as the 151 series was referred to, seemed in every way to be the ā€œanti-Jeepā€ with its unibody...
  19. Evolution.... where did you start? Or is the Gladiator your first Jeep?

    My first was a ā€˜55 Willys M38A1 mil-surp back in high school. I attended a private prep-assed school and, of course, nobody got it (or got me, for that matter). It wasnā€™t a ā€˜vette or an MGB soā€¦..weird. Iā€™ve had a couple dozen over the years. Some that bought to fix up and flip, some I drove for...
