How long does your propane tank last with that pit

I don't know what the popping sound is, but I'd be really doubtful it has anything to do with the bakes. Can't think of any brake component that would make that sound. I'd more suspect a transfer case noise or a differential noise -- like a posi-track engaging. If a CV joint or a U-joint made that sound, it would likely fail immediately. But good overview -- appreciate the analysis.

I am towing a 23-foot Airstream with a Jeep Grand Cherokee with the same 3.6L V6 and have similar issues. My max torque is at 4000 RPM. Cruise control runs about a gear too high to get RPM's under 2000 RPM for better fuel economy. This probably puts a lot of stress on the motor and transmission. In Auto mode without cruise control it still seems to favor higher gearing on climbs so I was manually shifting down to get just above 3000 RPM. There is no Tow/Haul mode, but I found Sport mode sort of works for that. It favors lower gears to keep RPM's up and holds them longer on climbs. My temps typically run under 210 degrees unless I really ramp up the RPM's. A key consideration is not just tow capacity, but also GCVWR which is the total allowed combined weight of everything. I can't fully load my trailer without exceeding the Jeep's GCVWR. Watch your tongue weights, payloads, and axle ratings. Use a weight distribution hitch and check everything at a CAT scale. Happy towing!

On trans delay you can reset the tcm by using key in off and run sequence this will reset also you can reser throttle body. Goggle on resetting tcm and also tbs I've done my trailhawk couple times already. The computer re inize different drivers. 2015 trailhawk so far no problems other than those 2 resets that only happens after I drive it my wife drives it 98% of time. Absolutely buy another

My mechanic said stay away from anything Dodge/Ram/Jeep as they have a lot that come in. The brain Your talking about is the TIPM( total integrated power module). It controls all the electronics and is a known issue. I like them personally but i trust my mechanic.i just don’t trust Stellantis/FAC.

What are your general thoughts on how lift and bigger tires decrease towing ability? I'm considering towing an Escape 19ft trailer (GVWR 4,400lbs) with a JT Rubicon, Max Tow on 40's, 4.5" lift and 1 ton axles, 5.13 gears.

I have owned my Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk since I bought it new in 2017. I have not done a lot of off roading, but I have done serious snow stuff and it is a beast in my experience. My only problem was with the air suspension system in the rear….could have been because I may have overloaded the vehicle during a house move. In any case, it has been reliable for me and I have over 92000 miles now. On balance I would definitely consider another one when the time comes for a new vehicle.

If I am not mistaken all jeeps (wk2) come with traction control TC, this feature breaks the slipping tire to allow the opposite tire to spin (because open diff) sometimes this is not enough and you need more power and TC will keep braking your tires, you need to turn off TC and accelerate while breaking (mildly) this way you force both tires to spin at the same times. I mostly use my hand break at half to force the two rear tires to spin at the same time. The clicking noises is when you enable 4lo and the TC gets disabled by the computer, then there is way to prevent slipping, but if you have QDII the ELSD gets activated and disabled To transfer power from one tire to other, that noise is normal. QT - capability to have AWD by adding a differential in the Transfer case QTII - AWD with LSD in the transfer case QD - LSD front and rear QDII - ELSD front and rear QL - Air suspension TC - only works on 4Hi or AWDm and uses the ABS computer to achieve power transfer. (LSD-limited slip differential) (ELSD- electric LSD) QD Quadrant drive, QT quadratrack, QL quadralift QDII clutches are controlled by a computer and cannot act as lockers, QD acts by centrifugal force, me in you have to accelerate for the clutch to engage. If I am mistaken please feel free to correct me.

Don't need to destroy a 60 thousand dollar rig to have fun or the big penis award. Ya all have fun. Please people don't turn off roading into " Snob" roading

Currently running 37s with a 2” Thuren lift over the factory lift for the PW.

Just did trail 11(and others) last weekend for the first time with some friends. I gotta say, that Trail 11 would be a tough trail for stock vehicles! We watched a HD Power Wagon going through the last obstacle you showed and it struggled quite a bit. We actually had to tug the last vehicle in our lineup back off the obstacle because he got his front diff stuck on a rock at the top of the ledge. We used a snatch block and winched him backward so he could re-align. And the rock gardens going up were fun and a bit nerve-racking. I would have been very nervous with a Jeep GC going up! I know they can do it, but that is about their limit!

I know this is a old video,, but SO far with my 2013 jeep Grand Cherokee Overland Cycle the air system a couple times a month all the way up all the way down I have not had any problems. Maybe some of the problems are from not using the air system, Leave it set in one setting to long it might get stuck from not being used?

Great video and trip as always Brad! Not my first time using a winch and feathering the throttle simultaneously though lol. More of an advanced maneuver that I wouldn't recommend to most as you can definitely inflict some major damage to your rig. In our case though, we cant always rely only on the winch. When you're loaded well over 8000lbs, you're completely body-bound, and your winch is only rated to 12k!! Been there - snapped that!

Nice video, Brad. I was about to give up on your channel, but this video has kept me subscribed. You are spot on. I almost 100% off-road solo. My vehicle (which I have owned since new) is a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland EcoDiesel 4x4, with Air Suspension (which I LOVE). I live in Michigan, have a cabin in the northern Lower Peninsula on a river, and I travel frequently off-road there and in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. My Grand Cherokee has the Offroad Adventure II package with QuadraDrive, and many extras -- Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac Tires (fabulous in the mud and snow), extra Bash Plates (Chief Products, and a special DEF LIne Protector Plate), Mopar Rock Sliders, etc., but no winch. I carry lots of recovery gear -- 4 Maxx Traxx, a Hi-Lift Jack, an 8,000 lb "Come-A-Long," Shovel, Air Compressor, Bottle Jack, Recovery Straps, Tow Straps, Chains, Soft and Hard Shackles, etc. When I need to get back to some really tough places where I hunt and fish near my Cabin, I use my Honda Pioneer 1000 with extra undercarriage protection and "tractor tire" style mudder tires. I am probably going to add a winch to the Honda ORV soon. Your channel is very down to earth and relatable, which I appreciate. Hope you keep producing new content.
