Manual trans. Both kids drive 6spd JK 2doors. Once you learn, you never forget.

Extreme Recon w/35s, full float, 5.7, would be a nice send off. Will likely never see a V8 as no v8s are truly modern any longer except the v8s in Corvettes and Mustangs. I don’t see the financial sense investing in a new Hemi version.

Btw, do they hurt when You’re bare foot?

That’s a great idea! I’m stepping on my RSE, tire, and rock guards when I’m tying stuff down on my bed rack.

Probably not as strong as the RSE one but should work 99% of the time.

Yes, I do like them a lot. If the troubleshooting doesn’t work, next stop is the main module. Luckily, I have a Gen 2 so the box is under the seat vs. individual ones at each motor that requires some step disassembly.

Northridge has a good troubleshoot vid. I'm going to disconnect each door sensor and test each door and magnet to identify which one is causing the problem. Family loves the steps but sometimes wish I would have just gotten some White Knuckles or ACE sliders...

No dash lights or other electronic gremlins. She starts up nice and strong and everything (including steps and ESS) were working great after the main replacement in Dec. When the ESS stopped and steps acted up, I figured it was aux battery time. The steps making a buzzing sound and interment...

Thanks for the quick reply. The ESS and steps were not working before the changed the aux. Changed the aux and still no ESS and steps still malfunctioning. I'll try your process and see if that works.

2020 Rubicon Gen 2 RSE (spring upgrade). AutoZone Duralast Platinum H6 (installed Dec 2025). Odyssey Aux Battery (installed April 2026). Issues: RSE steps work intermittently and buzzing sound in the speakers (turned off for now). ESS working from Dec 2025 till March 2026. Still not working...

That’s what I’m trying to see how much “good will” FCA is willing to cover. If it’s minimal, then I’ll likely live with minor corrosion until it really demands replacement. There’s higher life priority expenses vs. for mostly a cosmetic issue. I’m pissed I missed it by a few weeks.

Thanks. Do you remember how much they covered and how far past the warranty were you?

Good news. They would only need the truck for two days to gather photos and body shop quotes. Then they work it out with FCA for the amount of coverage. I’ll bring the truck back only if approved and parts ready.

Thanks for the response. So to be clear, you had possession of your truck until the parts were ready to be installed?

I am awaiting possible Good Will warranty coverage for some minor hood corrosion on my 2020 Gladiator as I just exceeded the 5 years by a few weeks. There is a process that requires the vehicle remain at the dealership during warranty consideration which can be several months. The truck is my...

Proper 4D M3! Both are 6SPD too!! Both FAST & FURIOUS!!

Was the Kill Switch easy to install?

Good luck and have fun! Looking forward to updates. Would be interesting to get your average daily mpg and gas prices at each stop. Be prepared once you get to CA!

I bet Toyota guys have the same conversation when someone posts a SAS conversion. Unlimited funds can pretty much get you want you want out of any Jeep or Toyota or any vehicle.

I spoke to the Real Truck rep and even with the adapter, there is little to no clearance to roll the cover back without wearing out the seal.
