Yes I’m sure, New apple cell phone lol . The key pad is so small on it one finger covers three letters never mind punctuation. Sorry for you pains ?
Well I’m thinking of asking jeep care to toss on 410 axle gearing as a compensation , See what they say anyway .I’m not thrilled w/ 3.73 gearing after having 410s in my rubicon jk . I feel the 3.73 might be fine on a jk but a truck idk . Plus if I put 35s on it later I’m thinking it will be Awful going up a incline lol it has a job doing it on these little stock tires. I’m not exactly thrilled with this vehicle as I expected . All the bells and whistles don’t cover bad design flaws . I should have ordered one but dealer told me 3 month wait most likely . If I had ordered it it would have been ordered with 410s and hardly any bells and whistles ,they only screw things up after time anyway & costly to repair . I won’t say I don’t love it but not off to a great start for the money spent $$$ . It feels more like I’m driving a decent second hand jeep rather than a $47,000 dollar truck brand new . Wet drivers side carpet also . Seems to want to stay at same rpm’s when you go to down shift if not surge while your clutch is in to shift into a lower gear. That in itself will wear brake pads more than normal wear and tear if your braking to slow it down. Feels like your on cruise control and trying to down shift. . Definitely has some buggs in it
That's not bugs - that rpm is by design. There are emissions reasons.
I’ll see tomorrow at 1:45 pm lol course now condensation cleared in lights and It’s going to snow . So make it harder to see a leak in slush. Every thing wet anyway. I’m going to ask jeep care to toss in410s I think .Seeing the axle needs replacement . No ??
If you have an axle seal leaking at the right rear, they'll replace the axle shaft - not the entire differential, in most cases. That axle shaft takes minutes compared to the expense of swapping gears. To give you two new entire axle assemblies (differential assemblies) for an axle leak is way out there.
If I read your first post correctly, the rear leaking axle shaft issue is that they have been chucking seals and replacement axle shaft assemblies, not the whole rear differential assembly.
If they have to replace the axle then its really not a cost difference . I’m my eyes . I had a jeep way back with 3.21 gearing lol it sucked put nitro trail grapplers on it 33 s couldn’t go up a hill with out beating the snot out of it. Traded it later that year for a rubi . The 33.s were nothing for it to go up hill . So what I’m saying is this ! A truck with 3.73 gearing and all that added weight is like a 4 door jk with 3.21 gearing With 33s . I think a gladiator with 33s or 35s and 3.73 is about equal to 3.21 gearing These trucks should be 410s unless you intend on leaving stock tires on it. As far as design flaws I’m meaning factory issues carried over from years and years of design flaw like same old wet carpet due to seal leaks in pillars poor axles seals prob will have same as the jk. Cheap ball joints weak track bar You know the norm!
Do you not understand that if they replace one axle assembly with 4.10's, they have to replace the other one also?
Well yeh this is true about the front not included but rear . If they replace the whole axle assembly it’s no big deal if it’s shaft then yes I then see the point in cost difference! I’ve heard the whole axle ???? If it’s just replacing a shaft yeh I get what your saying
Well this may very well be true Might trade up again to the 22 gladiator rubicon if it can’t pull 35s well enough
My 2020 Gladiator was a Rubicon with 4.10's and it handled 35's reasonably well. With my 2021 Willys and 3.73's, it sucks with 35's even with wheel size correction flashed in. Always seems to hang a gear lower than it should with finding 7th gear rare and 8th gear next to never.
