Let's perform the first Gladiator EcoDiesel service!

[Deleted member 22728]

The Gladiator has 4088 miles with an INSURV of 7/22/21. Since many of those miles have been technically "severe duty", i.e. trailer towing, I reckoned it was time to perform a PM A service, with an additional rear differential service (post regearing).

I've used Total Syn over the years with the 15' Grand EcoD, so its the go-to. Filter is OE Mopar, with 75w/140 gear oil rounding-out the service items. Additionally, the chassis gets the standard torque-n-tighten, as well as systems safety check.

It's hard to tell from the pic but that spring looks bent really bad.

I’m having a hard time locating fuel & oil filters to buy. Any help there?

RockAuto shows them all as being available currently. IDparts also has "kit" forms of the PM oil and filter as shown, with your choice of oil brand.

That is some good oil

Two "pre-C" items removed about 16 years ago....if you're in a production environment. I wear them religiously now.

Skin cancer due to exposure from oil, etc.

Never heard of Total Quartz,is it an independent or an off shoot of a major brand? What is the cost and who carries it?

Ok, the app went nuts and sent my question like 4 times, sorry

I buy from IDParts, which specializes in diesel car and truck automotive. The brand has been around, and is more common in the light diesel community i.e. VW TDI, etc. It's sourced from France. I only use it because it meets the MS spec. and is low-bid. It has worked fine in the 3.0 Grand since 15'.
