I have the Quadratec pedal and feel a vibration when braking when my foot is on the dead pedal. It is not the type of vibration as when the antilock brakes kick on. More subtle.

Why Jeep hasn't included this in what could be called "Comfort and Convenience" package is beyond me. They could throw in a few other common mods most do with the JT anyway and mark it up the usual Stellantis 200-300%. They would still sell a bunch and make all that $$.

Hmm, I wonder what else they could add to this package? Seat jackers, slammers, extra storage bins/cup holders, grab handles come to mind. :idea:

Did you ensure to use the 2 washers supplied? After taking off bolt where dead pedal will anchor, place 2 washers, then pedal, then tighten bolt. There is some indication in other threads ...there seems to be a correlation with reducing any vibration by ensuring washers are used. I have no idea how or why this works. I don't experience any vibration on dead pedal.

I think I skipped the washers... thanks for the heads up

My Rubi (bought it used) came with the Quadratec dead pedal already in it. It does make a difference for me and I would have installed one if it wasn't already there. My Jk does not have one and one of these days I will put one in it. It's a mod I wanted to make a long time ago, just never got around to it.
