  1. Wanting to hear from you diesel folks out there - should I trade for a leftover '23 to tow better?

    I appreciate your levelheaded advice! It is easy to get sucked down into the rabbit hole of negativity sometimes.
  2. Wanting to hear from you diesel folks out there - should I trade for a leftover '23 to tow better?

    I am looking at loaded up trailer in the 4k range, so this is helpful!
  3. Wanting to hear from you diesel folks out there - should I trade for a leftover '23 to tow better?

    I currently own a '21 Mojave. We are wanting to get into overlanding, specifically towing an off-grid camper around. I am worried about the towing (not capacity, but grunt) power and mpg of the 3.6 up and down the mountain passes. Wondering if a diesel would be the way to go. Have been...
  4. AEV Borah and 37

    Nice thing about the Borah is you can run it as a non-beadlock to. Just depends on what trim ring you use and how that outer tire bead is mounted. So you get the best of both worlds.
  5. Factory LSD, regear, swap it w a Truetrac 22k miles?

    I vote for the truetrac LSD. Isn't that a gear driven LSD vs the OEM clutch pack one? My guess is it will last you a long time. My experience with my JK is having an LSD is well suited in the daily driver/mild trail world. And putting in an E-locker upfront someday sounds like a good plan as...
  6. Error lights coming on (service 4wd, sway bar, adaptive cruise, forward collision)

    Had my windshield replaced last year at a local shop. Didn't do a calibration since the whole camera assemply is not disturbed when they replace the windshield. That being said, I've since read that the thinkness or refraction of the replacement glass, if it is different, may be why the...
  7. Need your feedback, Manual or Auto, Rubicon or Mojave.

    If you drive in any sort of bumper to bumper or slow moving traffic at all, go with the Auto. I had a manual JK and loved it - until I hit the city and traffic. Pain - especially with my older joints these days! But, nothing like rowing through the gears (and control) on the road when you...
  8. 2023 rubicon gladiator check engine light only 300 miles

    Had the same issue with my 2021 Mojave early on - not as early as yours! Dealer replaced both downstream sensors even though only one was throwing the code. Was told it was known issue with some and that they replaced both to prevent any problems. Sounds like (at least for me) there was a bad...
  9. Tire weight question

    Looks like you are as set as you can be without opening up the money bag :) Just keep an eye on things like excessive play or wear in the front end as you put miles on it. Heavier wheels and tires can put a strain on the joints and bushings of all the related suspension components.
  10. Tire weight question

    I would also add that the impact will also depend on what other fortifications you've made. Looks like you've already taken care of the gearing. How about the track bar and steering stabilizer? If the front end has been mechanically upgraded, then I think you'll be fine with the exception of...
  11. am I doing something wrong in snow/ice Winter driving?

    If I lived in snow country and hardcore offroading was not my thing, I think the ideal "snow cat" set up would be the max tow (with the Dana 44 wide axles) package, an aftermarket mechanical/gear (not clutch pack) limited rear slip differential, a locker in front (to get me out of any jams), and...
  12. am I doing something wrong in snow/ice Winter driving?

    I have the same tires on my JT and experience the slipping issues. I have to remember this is a pick-up with a light back end. I put it in 4-hi at certain times to help. I think this is one of the downsides to the open-diff (but with a locker) axle. My previous JK had the limited slip (but...
  13. LOD Destroyer Sliders Install/Review

    Yes. It's on the passenger side. Don't know if all years have them. I think it is a shipping bracket - not needed now. Here are the pics of me cutting it off and then hitting it with some paint. Used an angle grinder with a cut off wheel and then a grinding wheel to get the burs off.
  14. Intersting Death Wobble GoPro footage

    Found this video capturing the shaking involved in a death wobble. Thought it was interesting and thought I would share it.
  15. How Does This Come Off? Thanks!

    Looks like maybe a scew in assembly but you don't want to break it. Here is a guy that dealt with the same issue: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/diff-breather-tube-repair-dana-44-front-axle.58917/
  16. 23 Mojave spare question

    My 35" spare tire fits fine on my Mojave. Others have reported that a "small" 37 may squeeze in there as well.
  17. New to Jeep with questions

    All about corporate MPG targets to meet certain EPA cumulative manufacturer mileage mandates. Every little bit they can eke out of each jeep equals moving the needle just enough at the macro level. Used to be they would be able to average things out on the back of smaller economy cars. But...
  18. Warm air while climate is off.

    I found that if you turn the temperature setting down to the lowest setting (but don't turn on the AC) and then manually turn the HVAC system off this helps with this issue. Not sure if you tried that yet.
  19. Rear diff locker sweating?

    My Mojave looks exactly the same! And I have not changed the cover or fluid yet.
  20. My 2022 Gladiator burned down... how?

    The objective of most replacement insurance is to make you "whole" - that is to cover you up to what you lost with something of equal value. In this case, a similar vehicle of age and mileage. That's where they use comparisons and market values. You could have a discussion with them about...
