I went further down the rabbit hole of comparing device mounting arms.
RAM by far has the most extensive variety of mounting solutions across different vehicles and devices, including motorcycle, wheelchair, kayak, etc. they mostly use a 1” ball system, though 9/16” and 1.5” and 2.25” balls are...
So I have some Nomads I got a year ago or so, have only tried the deflators a few times but most of them didn’t seem to be set correctly… I thought I saw somewhere that max pressure was like 17 or 18psi and website says can be lowered down to 10.
Well, today I did a test and closed all 4 tire...
Just throwing this out there since I was curious. Here are the options I could find for front axle trusses (not including C gussets). Looks like they need ~2” of lift and the usual additional bump stop spacing to keep these from hitting frame or oil pan, etc.
Don’t see any available from...
So I noticed some pinkish fluid under the driver front corner yesterday.
After thinking it was power steering fluid for a minute I looked and it seemed to come from the water pump inlet hose. There’s a TSB about loose bolts.

For sale.. looking for $200. That’s $100 off new. No marks. My gladiator engine skid was back ordered forever so I went a different direction.
Looking for local pickup San Diego/Orange co/Temecula.
So my Clayton relocation bracket and AEV/bilstein SS hit my RK track bar, or the drag link, at full left lock, on my Gladiator with 2” AEV spacer lift.
I really liked these components so kinda bummed they don’t seem to work well together.
Is there an easy fix I’m not seeing?
Was thinking...
So there are a lot of options for moving your steering stabilizer up out of the way.
You will need a clamp for your tie rod, make sure it’s the right size for whatever tie rod you have.
There are some simple lengthened track bar bolts, like the Synergy and TMR. These are horizontal mounts...
Couldn’t find a straight answer to this. Some people have put spline lug nuts on these. I called teraflex and they said they recommend splines but he thought stock lugs are ok.
The amount of wheel material that seats with the stock lugs looks correct, and some posts I’ve seen note some...
Well, this spiraled out of control quickly!
I started by replacing the dash speakers of my Alpine stereo and saw a little improvement, and saw some people say they were impressed with the knee/sound bar upgrades as well…
For me, those upgrades were not worth the time and effort and permanent...
Couldn’t find a straight answer to this.
I want to wire a couple rock lights to come on when I unlock my doors.
Seems like I’ve read the circuit either gets confused from extra current draw, or lights act up because of dimming feature, or something else.
I really don’t need anything fancy or...
I’m preparing to install an amp for dash/knee/sound bar speakers, and a small powered sub linked to the main amp.
I planned on running 4g power to the main amp (fused by the battery), a 600W 6 ch JBl, and splitting 8g power from that line to a small under seat powered sub.
I have two questions...
Was looking into options of adding an amp after not being happy with my speaker upgrades to the Alpine stereo, there’s the usual Fix86 and PACamp, saw there is another option adding iDatalink maestro harness HRN-AR-CH4, and adding a compatible amp.
question is, if I add those will the stock...
Also posted on gladiatorforum but no replies..
I’ve been reading a lot on here and looks like almost all aftermarket lifts recommend around 4.5” of backspace in order not to rub on the aftermarket control arms. Stock Mopar arms have a bend to accommodate backspace, that’s why Mopar and AEV (who...
Just saw an ad pop up for this... Anybody tried? less expensive than doing a whole PSC setup or something:idea:

Stealth hidden smittybilt H2O 12k winch install on Maximus-3 winch plate and Rubicon Steel bumper
Solenoid relocation.
12k H2O winch and Maximus-3 winch plate were easy to install (as I had learned on this forum) :like:
I wanted a clean “hidden” install and did two things: clocked...
Replaced my LED fogs with squadron pros. I’ve never had amber fog lights before so wasn’t sure how effective they would be or whether they’re worth having over regular lights.
Another question is how much the beam pattern would effect reflection in snow/fog and what the best balance would be...
Returned it. Was easy to program, mount, and use. Seemed like it was well made.
The inner drawer is narrower, so The huge Jeep key barely fit in there.. and it wouldn’t have if I had my key ring and any keys attached.
Still, I would’ve kept it if it blocked the remote entry signal.. I was...
Bought this pair of storage bags to try.
They seemed pretty good quality and had lot of pockets, had Velcro shelf on the inside to make separate smaller compartments in the main pocket if desired...
The problem is this is just a carryover from previous jeeps and doesn’t really fit the JL, it...
Bought a couple different interior/console pockets to try, ended up liking a combination of the two.
One is a pair of shorter pockets:
And this one is longer and kind of contours the passenger seat:
I like the longer one, plus kind of blocks stuff from falling down next to the seat.
Both of...
Bought couple different console organizers to try. Both with pros/cons.
One is simple vertical slats:
one ia a tray with coin slot:
I like the coin slots, but wish I had a bigger compartment. It’s easy to lift the tray up and get to what’s underneath, but it’s a slight hassle.
The vertical...
