The wobbs have arrived. Full blown "need to pull over on the highway" wobbles. not always... but some is too much. Not a great feeling having to leave your house earlier than usual just in case you need to pull over.
I'm out of the original 3/36 (4 years old, 51k miles) but have a maxcare for...
General community reports about V1 were not positive. I've always loved the look of these but i'm right there with you. Gotta hear some user reports before I trust Oracle, because a reasonable portion of the V1 units in the wild ended up in the trash.
I'm not campaigning for anyone using one currently with no issues to uninstall in disgust. I'm just saying it's not bulletproof and future potential buyers might want to consider the risks of getting stranded if you get a unit that goes bad like mine did.
I always kept my OEM fuse hidden in my...
Mine worked for almost a year. Have no idea why it broke. I'm not saying I would expect every one of them to break, just saying mine did. Luckily for me I always carry a jump box in my truck (up until this issue i'd only ever used it to help others).
A kill switch is oodles more convenient for...
To anyone considering a 41.22 kill switch... i wouldn't recommend this product unless you happen to carry a jump pack with you wherever you go.
Alternatively, you can carry your original starter fuse in the truck with you and plug it in when it wont start with the 41.22 installed.
No, it's not...
I used to only return wave. But sometimes people would wave super late and I wouldn't have time to react and felt rude.
So i just started waving at all (non-angry) Gladiators and Wranglers... but i don't pay attention for wave backs. I don't really care about the wave, i just don't want to be rude.
This is more likely than people are giving you credit for. I've read reports of electrical readings being way off minutes prior to a nearby lightning strike, microwaves can block wifi signals, and solar flares can make electronics act up.
My favorite electrical trick is making a fluorescent...
The best answer I can give comes with a large caveat: probably not?
If the community is correct that the cooling is the primary bottleneck on the gladiators, then no additional frame/suspension upgrades will help with cooling.
Rubicon JLU now tows more due to full float rear axles that older JLURs didn't have.
"When properly equipped" isn't just a stellantis thing, it's all over every car manufacturer's claims for payload and tow cap (and a lot of other things)
Power isn't the largest component of a tow cap for most...
put out an OEM 5.7L with a clutch pedal and i'll buy another gladiator tomorrow. until that day... i'm pretty good with mine as it sits. trying to keep this one for another 7 years minimum assuming they'll never build a real fun gladiator.
TACTIK 5 Spoke Classic Wheel 17x9
They are +6 and poke a little more than i'd like, but they work. The temporarily out of stocks usually don't last that long. They used to be a lot cheaper. I bought mine for like 72/ea on sale. I think they used to list for 85 or 90
As a bonus, you can see...
