Full soft top install. This little heater has been used so many times to help with this over the years. Decent amount of stretching to be done due to the top being folded up in storage for over a year. It’s not as far off as the rear sail panels reflect. They angle back quite a bit as most of...
I also got around to installing the rear fixed seat and passenger seat. Rugged Ridge has come out with what they call “Factory Look” reclining front seats. I also picked up a matching rear seat. I can say this. The seats are comfortable for what they are. I have no complaints about the rear. The...
The windshield is in its final resting spot! Patience is key with these pulls. Tomorrow I hope to get the full soft top installed while I still have the heat on my side for stretching purposes
Yea I don't see myself getting back into a Gladiator anytime in the future. While I love the connection to our beloved Scramblers at the end of the day a Wrangler is a better platform in the modern world.
Picked up the Gladiator and drove it home wondering if it would make it. Got home without issue. Drove it a couple more times and couldn’t get the thought out of my mind “what if they didn’t find all the corrosion?” Even the tech basically said the same thing when I picked it up.
Yesterday...
Today was a productive day. Got the console installed as well as another windshield pull. I’m thinking one final “tweak” pull in a few days and it’ll be done. Next step would be installing the full soft top.
I also got all the seat brackets and sliders cleaned up and painted ready for install
Update. They say they found the culprit wires and fixed them. I asked that they put some miles on it, even taking it down the interstate. I asked for multiple start / stops, etc. As of 4PM today they have put 50 miles on it without issue. Said they’d do another 25 in the morning and then call me...
Back home without the JT. It broke down a 2nd time. This time I got 8 miles away. My wife came and picked me up. They aren't going to touch it anymore today. Going to have a fresh start at it Monday. Now I need to decide how far I take this. I have an option to dump it at a dealer auction...
I type this as I sit at the dealership…..
Drove down to pick it up today since my wife had to be down here anyway. Tech and service advisor agreed might as well go ahead and get it.
They did not charge me a dime since they never found anything. That was very nice of them. I thanked them and...
I appreciate this! Also to add after the 1st set of 2 issues last week I replaced the green bus bar behind the glovebox with a MOPAR new one. NO change with my issues. I shared this with the dealer and they checked it along with the wires in that vicinity and found no issues. Looks like I...
Myriad of codes concerning TCM, Canbus, ECM, even brake modules. One of my thoughts was of course loose battery cables / grounds. I rolled underneath it and tightened everything I could find including the aux battery. Dealer double checked my work. I found no loose cables and neither did they.
