It looks like with some 70 series tires it may be excellent off road. Minimal overhangs Reasonable wheel base. Amazing 15 inches !!! of ground clearance stock, when its suspension is raised all the way up...

Hi all. I lost the whole fob. Are there any better places to get one than going to my local dealer and bending over?? I'm fine with aftermarket, if they exist **Edit- Has anyone tried one of these? If so,does the dealer need to program it, or can a locksmith do it...

Hi all, My 3rd Jeep Wave oil change will be happening soon and I'll be back to changing my own oil for the first time in 15 years. Two factors came into play here. 1) the jeep is so tall its easy to get under it. 2) I am cheap but like to take care of my stuff. Prior to paying people to do...

Hi all. I'm worried that the New England winters will cause corrosion problems on my Jeep. I intend to keep my Gladiator for a long time and it seems that most of the Jeeps around here have significant rust problems within 10 years. A friend with a JK recently sent his 2011 Jeep out to MoTec...

Door off season is over in New England and I want to re-attach the door closers back to the door jamb. I am having trouble getting them out of the doors. I have not pulled on them as hard as possible because I'm afraid of breaking them. Does anyone have any wisdom around getting these...

I saw it posted in the JLWrangler forum that the cold weather package includes a heated steering wheel?? Is this true? Its not available on the Gladiator, right?? This is a swap I'd consider doing. Once you have had a heated wheel, you don't want to give it up.

UPDATE - Package price reduced!! ALSO. - I'm now willing to separate. See pricing below for details. I am regularly in CT and in NH along 93 up to Lincoln, so I could meet someone from those areas also. I bought a set of 5 XR wheels/tires and only need 4. This is a complete Wheel/Tire...

Hi all, I'm just looking to save some time. I am wondering what anyone who installed 315/70-17 Bridgestone K02s on their jeep entered for tire size? Thanks. This is just a starting point. I think I set mine at 34.6 or something like that. I'll do a check comparing speedo to GPS speed and...

Hi all, I just went from 33s to 35s. It there any need to reset the TCM to set it back to defaults so it "learns" the new tires? Or just go with it? If I should reset it, what is the best way?? I have adjusted tire size with a Tazer. Thanks, Don

Hi all, I am in the process of buying a set of 5 Wheels/Tires off of a 392 XR. I'm fairly new to the Jeep world and am most likely going to sell the 5th. Talk me out of it. What are the benefits of a 5 tire rotation. I drive in hellacious salt all winter, so would probably not keep the...

Do you want to get this $200 kit for half off?? https://www.amazon.com/Milwaukee-2457-21p-Cordless-Lithium-ion-Ratchet/dp/B07MN6M8JR I just lucked into it. I bought the ratchet from this ebay sale for $65. The ratchet is new, out of box. The seller appears to have many of them. It arrived...

My jeep was delivered new with a damaged door panel. Last week I finally had it replaced under warranty. Now I have a rattle that happens when I hit hard bumps. I'm thinking I'm better at troubleshooting this than a dealer monkey, since he'll spend 3 minutes on it and put the dreaded "Could...

I brought my truck into the dealer recently and removed the Tazer. I ordered the gateway cables to make this process easier so I waited to re-nstall the tazer until the cable came in so I'd only have to get on my back under the dash once. In the few days driving the truck without the tazer I...

A good friend of mine is running his Wrangler without a spare when driving on the road. His point is that there is almost no chance of him getting a flat with his big mudders. So. Have any of you gotten a flat on-road while driving with large tires? Thanks. Just curious

I was poking around on Quadratec and saw that AEV Bora wheels for the JK , normally about $315 without rings, are on sale for $205 each. The specs all look fine for a Gladiator. I understand that obviously 16" wheels for the JK won't clear the Gladiator's brakes. But what would be the...

I used the word latch rather than lock because I'm not looking for security from theft. I'm looking to retain the items inside in the event of a crash. Ive been keeping a couple of draw bars in the bed of the truck. (1-7/8 and 2" ball each) but would like to put them under the back seat. I'd...

Hi all, I thought I'd share something with you in case anyone experiences the same thing as me. I bought an XLT mat a few months ago. This is the mat that like the full bed rug has one piece that spans the gap between the bed and the tailgate. I spent months trying to "train" it to fold up...

I was pulling a light trailer yesterday. The weight was light enough so it really does't matter. But I was running it back and forth a bit to back up and heard a noise. I was in 4H Auto. It happened like this. I put it in reverse with my foot on the brake and hear a fairly quiet clunk...

Hi all, A good friend of mine is looking for a difficult to find Toyota vehicle and is having zero luck looking locally. Does anyone know of a Toyota dealer worth flying to and driving the vehicle home?? Thanks.

Yesterday in the Northeast it was 90+ degrees. We had to do a bunch of in town driving so I put the top on and was planning on windows up with the AC. My wife suggested I take the doors off. Fantastic, you don't have to tell me twice. It was great. The top was on and shaded us from the sun...
