  1. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    I had my clutch replaced a little over a month ago by a shop down here in Charlotte. Currently running 4.10's with 37s. Just got back from a long roadtrip to see family for the holiday, about 9 hours each way. I can say that on East Coast highways up to NY, I could easily cruise around 80mph in...
  2. New CenterForce Clutch Installed

    Let me know how you like the 5.13s once you get them in. I'm on the fence about what I want to do. My rig is pretty lightweight comparatively. I have BFG 37s, regularly cruise on the highway at 80mph and I do like the idea of having some better acceleration from a standstill. Always curious to...
  3. New CenterForce Clutch Installed

    Was ready to finally upgrade the the clutch in my JTR and a local shop said they would only install CenterForce so thats what I went with. I'm about 1000 miles on the new clutch so far. Engagement is definitely a ton better removing some of the vagueness that the stock clutch had. Its a bit...
  4. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Just had a new CenterForce clutch installed last week and now about 400 miles into my break in. Unfortunately the master cylinder that came with the kit was defective so although my Jeep is driveable, I'll need to go back in to get the new master cylinder installed. I can definitely feel it too...
  5. Cost for regearing

    I'd be interested in this also since I just moved to the Charlotte area. Currently researching clutch replacement costs but regear coming soon when I bump up to 37s.
  6. Front End rattle ...

    Hey Everyone, wondering if anyone else has experienced this. About 6 months ago I upgraded the entire steering set up on my Rubicon. Yeti track bar, MetalCloak drag link, tie rod & steering stabilizer along with MetalCloak sway bar end links... Ever since I've noticed a rattle or clanking...

    Thats great to know, thank you! I have a lift from Eibach and full steering kit from MetalCloak already in. My next projects are a new clutch and then a re-gear. Can't wait to get down there and explore a bit.

  11. Relocating to Charlotte/Lake Norman Area... Shop Recommendations?

    Hey Everyone, after 5 years in DE, I'll be heading back south to the Charlotte/Lake Norman area.

  13. best tie rod / drag link

    I went with a MetalCloak tie rod, Drag link and steering stabilizer with a Steersmarts Yeti trackbar... I've had the trackbar for over a year and just installed the tie rod and drag link and I felt like they solidified my steering substantially.
  14. Another paint bubbling post

    This may sound like a dumb idea but figure I'd ask... I have a small area of bubbling down by the edge of my hood, right under my Rubicon decal... Instead of waiting to get it repainted from the dealer, could i simply change the decal on my hood and do something that wraps around the edge of my...

  20. Clutch Recall (2/23/23): Clutch Pressure Plate May Overheat -- Affecting 70,000 Manual Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators

    The bad vibes around the clutch have me considering swapping to an aftermarket sooner rather than later. This is not a job I can do myself, would anyone be willing to share any estimates of cost for installation for such a job?
