  1. Cam failure question/poll

    AMW & similar isn't aftermarket? :CWL: Warden says back to your cell.
  2. Ideas for lights for my new ride

    Do those Hella's have the plastic housing? I had a set a few years ago that the light popped out of the housing. Just a forewarning. Not sure if it was a freak production problem or just bad design.
  3. 392 Gladiator V8 Hemi confirmed by Jeep CEO!

    Because like all massive corporations, most of the decision making is centered around the accounting department. The days of a manufacturer "doing something" for the joy of the automotive world are few and far between. Even halo cars are disappearing. The first Ford GT was produced in 05-06, and...
  4. Dead Pedal Installation Help

    You just sit at a station and wait for someone to go inside for a snack, grab their nozzle, fill up, put theirs back, and go. Leave a penny, take a penny. Same difference.
  5. Diesel cooling options and ideas

    The higher temps happen because you're going slower and less air is moving through the radiator. It happens all the time in racing. Caution comes out and engines start to overheat, end up turning on the fan. And as most of you know, all the temp management is for is to stop the engine from...
  6. Ideas for lights for my new ride

    Dunno if that's the camera's forced perspective, but those look yuge! :D Auxbeam 7" cornea-searers. Nevermind my cheap-ass rusted fairlead mounting plate.
  7. Dead Pedal Installation Help

    EXCUSE ME, but we do not use that word here. The correct term is "hypermobility." A midget with hypermobility. Way too many insensitive late ignition timing people in here. :LOL: But, yes, the consensus is that firewall bolt is a PITA. And dead pedals that have the break on the side are the...
  8. Where Is That Extra 4 Gallons of Gas ?

    The extra 4gal is with the JT with the factory 392. As mentioned, gassers get a 22gal tank (approx.)- Most of the time I'm fueling up at or near E, which nets me around 17-17.8gal. Only a couple of times have I stretched it to hit 18-20gal on fill-up. On vacations and road trips I usually...
  9. Two - Zero - Two - Seven ?

    Do we need to bother with fact-checking? Boo. Boo that AI man. Downvote/thumbs down/block. Especially when they start off saying the Colorado has a 6-cyl.? One of the reasons why I stopped looking at MSN was the sheer amount of clickbait trash.
  10. Well, it wasnt the lifter tick I thought it was (Updated)

    Ah, the good old Mrs. Lincoln story.
  11. Well, it wasnt the lifter tick I thought it was (Updated)

    The closest we can get is the ~10,000 unit backorder last summer for the cam kit. That means at least 10,000 engines needed cams. But we don't know across how many models. And if there are roughly 4+ million 3.6L engines built since 2020, that's a pretty low error rate of 0.25%. For an engine...
  12. Well, it wasnt the lifter tick I thought it was (Updated)

    Oh, it's been completed. If I ever find that one clip from that one stupid electrical connection, I might put it back on, but I'm pretty sure that flight time was longer than the Challenger's.
  13. Well, it wasnt the lifter tick I thought it was (Updated)

    Are there jackets? I didn't get a jacket. :LOL:
  14. 392 Gladiator V8 Hemi confirmed by Jeep CEO!

    I want a 2.0L turbo. A Farva for each side.
  15. 392 Gladiator V8 Hemi confirmed by Jeep CEO!

    Now we snort them.
  16. Towing capacity on some of the "non standard" trims...

    If I looked at it from your side, then we'd both be wrong. Take my example of a Rubi X with a 1000# quad in the back, family of 4 with gear, and a 7400# trailer loaded. No tongue weight transfer: GVWR=6250+ Rubicon X = 5031# + 650# (family of 4) + 1000# (quad) = 6681# Trailer = 7400# + 600#...
  17. Towing capacity on some of the "non standard" trims...

    I've explained it elsewhere, but here's how the math works. Payload = Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) - Curb Weight of Vehicle GVWR is what the vehicle is engineered to survive 200k-300k miles with proper maintenance and care. GVWR is also referred to as the Vehicle Class by some...
  18. Towing capacity on some of the "non standard" trims...

    Oh boy, Jeep is in for a world of hurt (legally). I've mentioned it before - the website has the weights posted incorrectly among the models. GVWR + GTW = GCWR Max Vehicle Weight Rating + Max Trailer Weight = Total Combined If this version of the owner's manual is correct: 🥇 2026 JEEP...
  19. Towing capacity on some of the "non standard" trims...

    You can look that info up online: VIN Number Lookup & Decoder| Official Mopar® Site It should give you the base model of the JT, something like this: Need an account to view all info, though.
