Nailed it

I’ve never smelled diesel odors from mine. Neither has my wife and she can detect a fart from 50 yards away.

I recently had mine replaced per the recall. But the service manager did say that they were sitting on inventory that needed the pump replaced before they could sell them. He no longer works there so take it for what it’s worth.

Yes

I went with these from Rockhard. They replace the original sliders (not sure why you’d wanna keep both on?). $900 and excellent customer service. They accidentally sent me the wrong version but quickly addressed the problem and sent out the correct ones. They seem indestructible but I’ve never...

I’ll ask them about it.

As of today, My JTRD (35k miles) has been sitting in the back lot of “Jeep Only” (Las Vegas) for almost two months now waiting for a new oil pump. Last week I inquired about the HPFP recall and they said that part is unavailable at this time.

Totally agree, that’s why I keep a small on in the rear drink holder and a larger (primary) one in the bed

Update; after 7 weeks, the Gladiator is still at the dealership service department. They say the oil pump is bad but no diesel oil pumps are available anywhere. They said it’s likely because of the strike. I asked about my HPFP recall and was told that the parts for that fix are also unavailable...

That’s good advice, and I probably will spring for a better quality (accurate) torque wrench. But for now, the Jeep is already at the dealership so not much I can do at this point, gotta see how it plays out.

I only torqued it the one time after hand tightening

Got a 21 JTRD with periodic low oil pressure light (although the pressure numbers seem normal). Warning light came on shortly after I personally changed the oil with mopar oil and filter provided by the dealership (33k miles/4th oil change. Three previous oil changes were completed by the...

There’s a black JTRD in the showroom at Jeep Only in Las Vegas. I talked to the sales staff. They aren’t authorized to sell it. Apparently it’s just for show? Lol. I asked them this week about the HPFP recall. Still no solution. I assume that’s why they aren’t aloud to sell it. I questioned if...

I was given the Smittybilt and I was pleasantly surprised with it. Fills my 37’s from 17psi to 30psi in two minutes per tire. All four tires without a problem. I’m turning it off briefly only to switch to each tire. The rubber line and the compressor get pretty hot/warm so you have to be careful...

I’ve got the rollnlock and can barely fit my dometic CFX3-35 under it (and I mean it actually touches the fridge lid, but still closes). That’s with a bare, no liner bed. It’s because because of the metal edge at the end of the cover that hangs lower than the rest of the cover. Once closed...

Thanks, I kind of dig that look too.

EVO and the Rock Krawler triangulated 4 link we’re appealing. I liked the beefiness of Clayton and their maintenance free CA joints. None of my decision was based on experience with any of these lift kits. They all had good reviews. Ryan at Vegas 4x4 and Off-road suggested Clayton. He used to...
