  1. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Yep agree totally. This is my baby and barring an accident or other disaster plan to have it for at least 20 years......so after I hit a deer and mangled the oem bumper I decided to just go for the ARB. I've thought their bull bars were awesome for probably at least 20 years. Is it pricey...yep...
  2. Just got my JTR back from paint repair

    Ugghhhh reminds me of when I had to have the dealership do warranty body work (major fender rust repair) on my VW Jetta commuter car. They were sending the warranty jobs out to the lowest bidder in the local area...and it turns out that was a few dudes with some spray guns and a back alley...
  3. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Got my new ARB Deluxe bumper installed.
  4. Josh's Rig, Oscar.

    Thanks so much for all the measurements and pics above...and for commenting in my AEV lift discussion thread to check out your build! Sounds like we followed identical paths...I have the 1.5" Teraflex up front and 3/4" Daystar in the rear right now and I am going to go for the AEV and remove...
  5. Help me Decide - DIY Mopar Lift or AEV Dualsport

    Thanks everyone for all of the ....confirmation. I was really leaning toward the AEV anyway. I did contact AEV today to ask about the adjustable front track bar and they explicitly stated that it is not required for the 2.5" lift. I'm going to go ahead and order it and give it a go without...
  6. Help me Decide - DIY Mopar Lift or AEV Dualsport

    My Jeep: 2021 Sport S w/ max tow. 285/70/17 Wrangler Rubicon take off wheels and tires. Fab Fours Overland rack, ARB classic deluxe front bumper, mopar performance rock rails with step assist (the larger rock rails that double as steps). How I use it: Daily Driver, errands for the house...
  7. Weathertech Mud Flaps

    Interesting....it looks like they might have modified the design to fit the larger "Mopar step assist" rock rails that were an option. Where did you order these from, as the pics on the Weathertech website are not even reflecting this change yet. I have the Mopar performance step-assist rails...
  8. Leaking axle seal?

    Just got my letter....build date in late January or early february 2021 (I didnt go out to look for exact date). Mine was already replaced twice under warranty. First failure was noticed at 1400 miles and was a large leak even at that point. Second failure (after the initial replacement) was...
  9. Headlight Upgrade for Sport S W/ Max Tow

    Cool! Mine are still going strong and in my opinion the bang for the buck is really there with these. Major improvement for a very reasonable price. After adjusting my headlights down a touch I have not beeen flashed once in almost a year now.
  10. Wind Noise in A Pillar/Door Flag

    Pryed the piece out, applied silicone sealant, re-inserted piece, wiped off the silicone that squished out...problem solved.
  11. GEICO rate increase of over 30%

    $955/year for two adults mid 40's, in Maryland about 40 miles outside of washington DC. 2021 gladiator sport and 2018 subaru outback. Subaru listed at over 12k miles per year, jeep listed as 6,000 miles per year, neithjer listed as a commuter car (work from home). Well above minimum coverage...
  12. New Gladiator Owner - rust protection advice needed

    On a new and clean underside...I go with an initial heavy coat of Amsoil Metal Protector HD. It goes on as a spray and dries like candlewax. Great stuff...but warning...do it in a well ventilated area the chmicals in it are no joke. If it is an older/dirtier vehicle (or after the initial...
  13. Leaking axle seal?

    Interesting...I know this has been a theory from the start. Was it clogged with bugs or mud or do you think that it was just the gore membrane not breathing enough?
  14. How many miles do you change your oil?

    For me it just works out to once per since i only drive about 6,000 miles annualy. I use Mobil 1 0W20 Extended Performance.
  15. Leaking axle seal?

    Unreal. Mine is starting to seep again now that the weather is getting warmer.... after being repaired twice already (two new shaft assemblies).
  16. Leaking axle seal?

    Wow...had not heard of that.,......this is truly ridiculous.
  17. Leaking axle seal?

    its all good...like a few others in this thread I am just sort of following this with a high level of interest/intensity since it is affecting me as well. It's interesting to hear the different things dealers have said to folks and the different approaches that have been tried by the dealers...
  18. Leaking axle seal?

    ahhh ok, yeah I am sure it is. yep...if you scroll back through this massive thread I am leaning toward a massive batch of deffective parts or defective axle housings that are the root cause here.
  19. Leaking axle seal?

    What is a "right rear housing" happen to get a part number? I can't imagine they are pulling apart an axle housing at the dealership and slipping a new "tube" on just the right side.
  20. Leaking axle seal?

    Well....as expected...I am starting to see signs my leak seems to be returning after it was already repaired twice. Wonderful......I currently only drive 6,000 miles or so per year, and the dealership is only about 5 miles away so I don't have ay fears of a total failure or being stranded, but...
