  1. 3.6L Pentastar V6 Engine Failure

    What are your thoughts then on my engine failure?
  2. 3.6L Pentastar V6 Engine Failure

    No over revs (6speed). Engine was ticking and lash adjusters were crappy. Right cat 70% plugged. High back pressure likely lead to Rod failure. Liqui Moly exceeds specs. Oil change interval at 5,000 to 7,000 kms. No sludge. I race car and motorbike and use Liqui Moly in all engines. Tear downs...
  3. 3.6L Pentastar V6 Engine Failure

    Keppler White Rock Dodge in BC šŸ‡ØšŸ‡¦ offers a Hemi swap program with factory warranty. I think that is a big factor when deciding which V8
  4. Is the Mopar 2 inch lift actually bad?

    I had the 2ā€ lift installed at time of purchase and run 35ā€s. The Fox Shocks dampening is very soft. The truck wallowed way too much for my comfort. At 42,000 kms the front shocks blew and bled their red oil out. I got warranty replacements and they are still in the boxes. I removed the rears...
  5. 3.6L Pentastar V6 Engine Failure

    Itā€™s somber news when you hear engine failed. Mine threw a rod threw the crank case at 60,500 kms. I had a Magnuson SC for 50,000 kms with 9 tunes to improve drive ability (6spd). There were signs the engine wasnā€™t happy. I primarily drive secondary mountainous roads and some freeway but seldom...
  6. Love Centerforce now. The new clutch is working great. Please Help. 2.5 weeks without my JT---F#$%ing Centerforce!

    Centerforce KDF157077 Dual Friction clutch and flywheel is the kit I ordered in Sept of 2020 and received in March of 2021. Bryan Willson of Centerforce sent a letter advising that more testing and improvement was required before releasing to public. I had a shop swap out and install the clutch...
  7. 3.6L Pentastar V6 Engine Failure

    My engine had a catastrophic failure last month at 64,000kms when a connecting rod let loose and broke the crank case. I had 2 snow bikes in the box (600lbs) and was driving at 95km/h when we heard a thunk but it wasnā€™t dramatic. I watched the oil pressure and it started dropping. We pulled over...
  8. Mojave from F150?

    :like: fun thread! I too left full size pickups behind when the JT became a reality. Tacoā€™s were too small but did have a good size bed. But, I live in a temperate 4 season climate with real winter and summer. I haul two snow bikes in the winter and two dirt bikes, adventure bikes, construction...
  9. Does the mopar jtrd lift kit fix the bad shocks?

    The Mopar 2ā€ lift kit with the Fox Shocks will increase roll and sway significantly. I had dealer install mine at time of purchase 57,000 KMS ago. One of the front Fox shocks blew and bled red. Trying to get a replacement is very difficult through the dealer. Fox doesnā€™t supply the same 2.0...
  10. Regearing? Why or why not?

    Re-gearing is a must for sport and sport s with 6 spdā€¦the OEM gearing is ridiculously tall. Add 35ā€ tires and you have to ride the clutch on any minor incline to get going.
  11. Why not buy a Centerforce dual friction clutch?

    I installed a Magnuson SC a few months after purchasing my 2020 sport. Itā€™s been a while since Iā€™ve had time to read and contribute. I was on the waiting list for the CenterForce JT clutch early on in their development. I used a full mech shop to install at same time installing a re-gear. The...
  12. Supercharged JT With manual trans?

    Magnuson sends you a HP Tuner as part of the purchase. However, itā€™s a locked version so you can only upload the tunes they provide you. If you want try otherā€™s tunes youā€™ll need an HP dongle with open license. Itā€™s a couple hundred $$. The tunes from Magnuson for Manual Trans are now pretty...

    Thanks Dave! Mark contacted me yesterday and told me you guys put a bunch more work into the tune and to expect an update file next week. I also figured out the HP Tune license issue. The beta software version I had was not functioning so Erik in help sent me the correct version. Now if only HP...

    Dave is the unofficial, as of yet, the Magnuson Ambassador extraordinaire! Iā€™m the fella with the manual JT Dave mentioned earlier. Iā€™ve been off the Forum for a month with many other distractions but am back to help anyone with a manual who wishes to improve the JT with a Mag SC. Iā€™ll say the...
  16. Supercharged JT With manual trans?

    I have stock clutch with Magnuson SC and changed gearing to 4.56s. Gear change alone was good but it the stock engine didnā€™t pull strong enough on mountainous roads and highways so SC was installed. The tune has been a 4 month challenge to get right with the manual but Magnusonā€˜s Tech are very...
  17. Recall: Manual Transmission / Clutch Recall for 2020-2021 Jeep Gladiator (Notice: 21V-028)

    Since October probably 6,000 miles. I drive a lot of mountain roads and when there is opportunity to pass a transport truck itā€˜s so nice to just accelerate quickly without hanging in the opposite lane! I really like the v6 with the SC!

  20. Gladiator in snow - disappointment?

    my JT is a 6spd I drive in snow/ice 5 months a year so I run 4 studded winters and in summer 4 BFG. Winters have softer rubber than summers and with studs and my snow bike loaded (280lbs) traction is excellent. All that aside when Iā€™m in deep snow or compact snow with fresh and have to climb...
