I bought a spare oil filter cap after I seen it on the engine.... Just knowing S### happens. Now I should never need it, or it will be misplaced when I do.

That is overkill to be changing the cap at every oil change, especially if you are doing your own oil changes.Would it be a good practice to just replace the filter cap along with the filter cartridge every oil change?

Yep and the filter is pre-loaded to prevent these issues!Get a diesel, you'll have to replace the cap every time anyways!
Amazon thinks this does not fit the 2021 Gladiator:@XraytecH
Your link goes to an aftermarket (not Mopar)oil filler housing cap and oil filter.
Best bet is to stick with OEM filler housing cap in my opinion.

That drain plug does not come back as fitting the 2020 JT based on that website. They advise to use this instead https://www.mymoparparts.com/oem-pa...yJnk9MjAyMCZ0PXNwb3J0LXMmZT0zLTZsLXY2LWdhcw==I ordered these from mymoparparts.com

Shipping on that and other sites always seems to be something like 25% of the purchase price. On a $31 order, the shipping is about $9. On a $400 order (fender flares bolts and such) it's $100. For me at least. YMMV.Home 2021 Jeep Gladiator Engine Oiling, Oil Pan and Indicator (Dipstick)
