Broken sun visor fix Jeep Gladiator

[@andrewbrannon9406]

You're doing many Jeep lovers/owners a great service, and for that, I say that you are both a scholar and a gentleman.

[@rjguess]

I appreciate your kind words. Thank you!! Always good to help a fellow Jeep owner!!

[@pochaplex1980]

Just broke mine today...I was in total panick mode as my warranty just ran out...thanks bud, your a life saver.

[@rjguess]

You are welcome. Thank you for watching my video. I hope you get it repaired soon. Just to let you know. Mine is still working like new to this day. No issues.

[@johnsullivan6083]

These directions were perfect, thank you! I modified your technique a little bit, though. I used a hacksaw to shorten the plastic hole to allow the metal piece to protrude out the other side so the star washer would catch. I placed the washer by using a hammer on an open ended wrench to hold the washer in place during impact. I rotated the wrench a few times to fully seat the washer. I would have never even tried this repair except for your GREAT video. Thanks again!!!

[@rjguess]

Thank you! I appreciate your kind words! Glad this video helped you out. Mine is still working great to this day! Better than new!

[@DxDOverland]

Hacksaw? Good idea! I already wrote I'll use an open end wrench.

[@johnsenn1998]

Same here on the hacksaw method. I cut it flush and even had to dremel just a little more material to ensure the star washer would grip

[@detroitos]

I used a saw for the same purpose.

[@jackherold4406]

I performed the fix today. The video was very thorough and provided all of the detail needed. I read another comment that a user had used a hacksaw to shorten the plastic piece that the post from the visor slides through. I used my oscillating saw to shorten the plastic piece. I cut it off flush with the reinforcing webbing. It cut like butter and provided a nice flat surface. This allowed the steel post from the visor to extend far enough to easily attach the push nut. To attach the push nut used a socket. To do this slide the the wire through the socket before you reattach the clip. push down on the socket to squeeze the push nut until it full seats against the plastic trim piece. Thanks again for the great video!

[@rjguess]

Thanks for watching. Thank you also for the detailed way that you preformed the fix! Excellent! Just so you know, mine is still working like new to this day!

[@donnatoy692]

Thanks so much for sharing this fix. I was just getting ready to pay the dealer almost $300 to repair it. Now I can get rid of the bungees holding my visor up!!

[@rjguess]

Awesome! Glad I saved you a bunch of money. Just to let you know, my repair job is still holding up like new! Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@RockboRising]

This video worked great for my 2019 JL Wrangler 2-door. The only difference was a 3rd (yellow) wire in the left hole. I used the red axle nuts that Richard S. mentioned in the comments. I used a Dremel to cut a circular groove around the silver metal piece to give the axle nut teeth something to grab. Snug and strong now. Thanks for video.

[@rjguess]

Glad it helped! Along with my video and the great information you provided will help others if this happens to them! Thanks for watching and commenting. Mine still works flawlessly to this day!

[@ge1773]

Excellent video! Thank you so much for filming the very detailed steps in disassembling, fixing, and reassembling the visor.

[@rjguess]

You are most welcome. Thank you very much for your comment and watching my video.

[@saintmat73]

100% perfect fix! Thanks so much. One small suggestion: I reamed out the hole with a round rasp to fit the push nut without having to cut anything. I also used a small socket (fed the cabling through it first) to set the push nut evenly. FYI: I also bought an extra push nut for likely inevitable break on the other side.

[@rjguess]

Awesome advice! Thank you for watching my video. Glad it was helpful! I appreciate your comment and watch time.

[@garik1018]

Thank you very much for the video , I was able to fix my 2019 Jeep Wrangler . I bought the part from Lowe's it was inside the special nut drawer. It's inside red Axle push nut. I was able to cut the red plastic with utility knife and remove the metal push nut. Than I used hand saw and cut the plastic from the base to make sure metal has enough room to insert the push nut. All done in 15 minutes! And only cost $1.85

[@greghotchkiss6682]

Hi, can you tell me what an axle nut is and where I can get it? It sounds like an improvement over the star nut. When I searched it, it only found giant axle nuts for cars. I assume it’s a collar with a hex nut to tighten onto the post? Thanks

[@greghotchkiss6682]

So I answered my questions via a trip to a specialty hardware store. The press nut was called a bolt retainer and the axle nuts were like caps, but I found something much stronger, shaft collars. The M8 size was too small for the solid shaft collar with set screw, but the M8 Double Split Shaft Collar was perfect, with 2 tightening screws that allow the collar to widen enough to fit over the metal shaft. P.s. I did have to trim some plastic off of the plastic piece on the shaft, and I also trimmed off the plastic from the visor mounting bracket, both necessary to have enough of the stainless shaft protruding to place the shaft collar. This visor will never fall off! Thanks for the great video and tip!

[@shineflewr]

Many thanks for the video...works great. If anyone else out there had a hard time finding 5/16 push nut, I found some at Lowes with the red cap on it (axle nut). I just cut the red cap off with a dremel tool and the size of the push nut was perfect.

Phenomenal! Both my JT visors broke within a week of each other. While I'm still under warranty I'd rather just use this method and hassle with a trip to the dealership. Thanks so much for posting this!!! Also, how can there be 5 dislikes, really? Just an FYI on this project... my visor "nub" was also very short and required me to use a hacksaw and dremel to remove all of the round plastic portion of the visor bracket. I had to make sure the plastic round piece on the bracket was flush to the rest of the bracket. I also had to slightly "bore out" the hole to get the visor metal "nub" to stick out as much as possible. Just an FYI I have a 2020 JTR. Nothing major, but slightly more trimming than rjguess1 had to do. It's PERFECT now! Time for the driver side.

[@robertd.989]

This fix does not work for every jeep. Beware that if you grind or sand out the hole (min 5:34) in the bracket and try to slide the visor arm further up into it's slot it could cause your visor to rub against the top frame of your jeep, even potentially making it inoperable all together. My Jeep 2018 Sahara fix was to grind off the lip inside down to flush of the bracket itself. This did NOT change the way the visor arm fit into the bracket but what it did was allow for more of the metal part of the arm to protrude THROUGH the bracket. Then I made a slot in the chrome part of the arm, placed a 1/4" washer and a retaining (e-clip) to hold it all together. The 2018 Sahara visor is just too short to adjust how much it slid into the bracket so a reverse engineer of rj's fix was necessary.

[@rjguess]

Good advice thanks for leaving this!

[@Rubi747HVY]

My driver side just dropped like that. What a cheap ass design and Jeep has the part on backorder due to demand with no estimate. Do you have any specs on that locking washer or who has them? Thanks for sharing your fix and better design.

[@IndianaPoohBear]

Am I the only one that this did not work for me at all? I shortened the plastic part with a hacksaw, but the push nut does not stay on no matter how far I slam it in there. It will feel tight, then come off when trying to put it back on the jeep. I have a 2020 gladiator that I unknowingly bought with this problem. I tried to look at how you got yours on there but you skipped that part completely and all the clips of it after are blurry…Any other tips?

[@rjguess]

Hopefully what I say makes sense. Look at the metal shaft that you press the push but on. At the base of it where you want the nut to stay. File or cut a groove in it for the teeth of the push nut to grab onto. Some other people who commented or spoke to me said they needed to do that in order for that push nut to stay in place. I hope this makes sense to you. Please let me know if this does. Thank you for the information about my video. In the future I will try not to skip certain parts of my videos. Also I will do better on the quality of the video. I appreciate you indeed.

[@RockboRising]

It definitely helps to make a groove like RJ says. I used a Dremel tool to cut a shallow groove around the silver piece. Then I tapped the axle-nut on upside down so the teeth angle up. Lastly, I banged each tooth into the groove with the small Phillips screwdriver. It'll be much stronger than Mopar's design and can be removed by simply prying the axle-nut teeth back.

No matter how big I bore that whole the metal doesn't come up high enough... gotta find another way

[@rjguess]

Really? What year is your Jeep? Man, I hope you find a way to fix it. This worked flawlessly for me.

I’m sorry this isn’t working for you. I thought the 2019 and 2020 would have been very similar. Mine was very tight after I pushed it up far enough to get the the push nut on. Maybe try and use a vise. Put a thin layer of grease in the hole. The insert the other part, slowly press it in there with the vise. Just be sure to go slow so. That plastic is pretty dang tough. I did this when experimenting how to fix this.

@@rjguess yeah ima try that eventually for now ur video was great atleast for removing the visors lol it was pissing me off hanging there.

[@rjguess]

@@DragonOperator I know the feeling! It should be a recall. A lot of people have this problem. Hopefully you get it. Let me know if you do! I see your profile picture looks like military. If so, thank you greatly for your service to our country! God Bless.

my daughters both broke

Some people in the comments said theirs was covered under warranty. If yours is not, with this video you should be able to fix them. Mine still works like new to this day. No issues.

Mine broke with in 12 months...

[@rjguess]

I hope you get it fixed! My repair still works to this day. Like new!

[@snip_king428]

@@rjguess Well, some idiot hit my driver's side door, so I'll have them fix that also.... Keep up the good content.

[@rjguess]

@@snip_king428 thanks. I hope you get that door repaired or replaced! I’d be upset if it was me.

Dude did you really take a freaking 30 second repair job and turn it into an almost 12 minute video! How in love with yourself are you? Righty tighty lefty loosey….thats how long this video should’ve been

[@rjguess]

I did it this way to show others how to repair this problem in detail. I’d like to see you make this video in 30 seconds. There is no need to rude.
