    Whats involved in a SD 1 ton swap?

    I see there are weld on truss adapters available now. I was thinking about having a set of those welded on to some SD axles I see for sale but then that leaves a lot of other details like brakes, ABS sensors, etc. Is there a write up or post anywhere showing this for the JT. The rear end is...

    Gas Can Mounting System?

    I just use a 5 gallon can strapped to the side of the bed interior. I'd rather keep it simple, since I may need to move it around. There are over 600 miles of trails in some of our local national forests, which have to be traveled very slowly so I don't want to go back out for fuel so I can...

    How Much front bumper weight is significant?

    Interdasting. That is an interesting admission on their part that repeated starts damage the jeep computers. That doesn't seem to be an issue for other manufacturers. As an EE with a decade of experience in this, I have to laugh at the solution...adding an entire battery to hold up a...

    How Much front bumper weight is significant?

    Eh for me I have to worry about payload since I need to tow a trailer so the 30lbs would be reasonable to trim if possible. Same reason I ditched the aux battery. None the less, I still have a steel front bumper and winch. I don't really trust aluminum for a bumper's job.

    Towing, hauling and general comfort on 37s/38s ?

    Oh I meant to ask how does the colorado's power compare to the ecodiesel when towing, more or less. I'd assume the ecodiesel would feel much stronger with 100 more ft/lbs and 8 gears.

    Towing, hauling and general comfort on 37s/38s ?

    I assume she has a colorado? Does your jeep have the ecodiesel by chance? I've yet to tow with mine but loading it up to full payload on 37s didn't slow it down very much at all.

    Gladiator Diesel - Tires and Towing

    I'll take the much better low end torque over a couple hundred high way rpm. There are two over drives in the 8 speed so I'm not concerned.

    Gladiator Sales Report (and others)

    You were talking about normalizing against units produced. I pointed out that prices were being cut, indicating demand was dropping beyond trends. That's the only point I'm debating. The whole market is hosed, that is not really debatable. I do want prices to fall, because I'll very likely...

    Gladiator Sales Report (and others)

    I think its a fairly confident assertion to state that the gladiators are not selling well if the sales numbers are down AND they're offering very large discounts. There could be other factors but this is definitely a prevailing perception.

    Gladiator Diesel - Tires and Towing

    I bought a diesel for the torque so when i put 37s on i regeared to 4.88s. There is a difference in 4 lo for those of us without the rubicon, and street acceleration is better.
