So, tomorrow is the day my insurance company writes my Gladiator off as a total loss.
I've had friends say things like "So are you going to get another?" Too soon...
What would I like? I'd like to have had my Jeep where I parked it three weeks ago and to have kept it forever.
I've had a cool...
So, my happy 2020 Gladiator Rubicon was stolen in Dallas Tuesday night/Wednesday a.m. Broken glass at the hotel where it was parked. Initial report to Dallas PD via 911 per their protocol. Contacted Sirius - I had a music subscription but not security. I activated a security subscription and...
Upate:
Made an appointment Tuesday afternoon, brought car to dealer 8am Wednesday, and new steering damper installed. Steering felt great and it handled the patch of road where it death wobbled just fine. And, since I was in the shop and it was due, got a state inspection.
Because I was out of...
You, sir, are my HERO!
Thanks for posting the Warranty Bulletin. My 2020 is one of those covered by the warranty extension coverage for this part - 8 year/90,000 miles. I'd seen the Customer Satisfaction item for the Wrangler and news stories from Jan 2023 about the proposed settlement to...
Thanks for posting this! I saw a step like this on a neighbor's RAM and wanted one for my Gladiator. Saw the AMP and was wondering if the step would work with the stock rock rails on my Rubicon. Saw your Rubicon and looks like I'm good to go!
The most work and worry I've ever put into 6 bolts EVER!
I watched the Ace videos, and the first bold (driver's side middle body mount) went slowly - the pull down on the washer advice was golden.
The driver's side rear scared me - it was freewheeling at a point, came to the forum and started...
I seem to be all or nothing - a vehicle is a tool or a passion, no in between.
If I'm going to drive an economy car (I have a Honda Fit which has been awesome) or get my wife a compact SUV (Mazda CX-5, she loves) - I'm going to choose based on reliability ratings, resale, crash ratings, etc...
First mod! Rydonair stubby radio antenna (Christmas present from son) to replace the factory metal rod.
As posted on the Amazon reviews, the screw on the antenna and adapter had black paint on the threads, so I buffed those with steel wool for better electrical contact. That said, enjoying...
Asked Santa (son, asking for gift ideas) for the Rydonair 13" antenna with red bottom, which will be first mod to new Rubicon - Ace Engineering steps recommended here on order.
Good tip in the Amazon comments section re: the antenna - check for paint on the threads, which could impair...
I got the both the blind spot detector and adaptive cruise control on my Rubicon. Combined with the 8.4 and the rear camera, I feel I have much better situational awareness than I did with my Z71. I'm getting a bit older, have always been a bit distracted, and these things help.
The ACC is...
