Im sorry i realize this is an older video. I however just purchased this setup for my Gladiator. What skid plate do you have attached to the front bumper?

The instructions for installing the foglights are backwards - you need to use the supplied brackets for the halogen foglights, not the LED. My son and I installed an HD bumper last weekend on my JL Sport S and we needed the brackets.

I wonder if that changes the temps on your rear axle oil.
@thependleyadventure3354 2 жыл бұрын
I doubt it. The exhaust would have to heat up a lot of steel on the rear of the diff to even heat the oil. Plus while you’re driving air is cooling the diff. And in this setup the exhaust tip is closer towards the driver tire and about 18” forward of the axle. I bet it doesn’t affect temps at all

I got exact same Gladiator.. color and all... Yours sounds extremely close to my Borla Xtreme... and prolly cost 1/2 what I paid... Good Job! My favorite part is gunning it from a dead stop at the intersections where the panhandlers work... Keeps them on their toes!

@justin________7477 2 жыл бұрын
Good to know if the highway drone isn't too bad even without a resonator. I think I'm going to do something similar but keep the front res and just straight pipe it back from there. Cool tone for a garden variety pentastar v6. And for me with a stick, will make it easier to hear revs for shifting ha

Great video and the Jeep looks awesome! Any issues with the control arm lengths using the supplied measurements? Did the alignment shop have to adjust any of the control arms to your knowledge?
@thependleyadventure3354 4 жыл бұрын
Hi Richard, the supplied measurements were a great starting point. After alignment the shop told me my caster was just over 7 degrees. So I actually had a negative pinion angle. Thankfully I wasn't going to be in 4 wheel drive until I had time to adjust it so the front driveshaft was never spinning. I then lengthened the front upper arms until I got about a 1 degree positive pinion angle. Caster is now about 5.8 degrees on passenger side and 6.1 degrees on driver side. Digital angle finders are the best! Every jeep is different though so the measurements may work great for you.
