Does anyone have an idea on where the Gladiator capital of the world is? - Nantucket Island! 🏖️

A 4x4 paradise..... Jeep Gladiators everywhere you turn!
I just had to spend the month of August out here; I know sucks right! 🤪

This island means so much to me! It's hard to put into words.... While also getting into this special truck that makes me smile every single time. Life is so precious.

I hope all of you are enjoying your Gladiator as much as I do! All she wants to do is play in the sand!

As summer goes, stay warm and safe folks! See you out there.

Bought my first Jeep about two months ago and didn’t really expect it to have this much of an effect on how I spend my free time. 2026 Mojave X.

Before this I’d end up at bars way too many weekends just because there wasn’t much else going on. Now I’m constantly finding an excuse to be outside, take a drive somewhere, explore a new area, or screw around with something on the truck. It’s been a really nice change that has me upset that winters coming.. lol.

Just added the roll bar, slide-and-lock bed cover and electronic steps and I’m really liking how it’s coming together.

I’m trying to find some Jeep events, trail rides, meetups or groups within a few hours of NYC. Definitely want to start actually using this thing for what its designed for, so if anyone knows of anything around NY/NJ/PA/CT, any clubs or meetups, I'd love to tag along.

Nice meeting you all!

What’s a good head unit for a 2020 gladiator sport?

5 Upvotes

I’m looking for a head unit for the 2020 jeep gladiator sport that doesn’t change the look of the dash that retains all the factory HVAC controls and everything that has a good sound output and RCA connections with an EQ and subwoofer level adjustment. And wireless CarPlay, What’s the best options?

Anyone swapped a 4:1 Rock-Trac transfer case into a Sport/Overland Gladiator? Looking for firsthand experience

2 Upvotes

I’m considering swapping the factory 2.72:1 Command-Trac transfer case in my 2025 Gladiator Sport S (3.6/850RE) for the part-time 4:1 Rock-Trac used in the Rubicon.
I’ve done quite a bit of homework and believe I’ve identified the correct current-production case:

MP1622C
Mopar P/N 68577452AB
Sales code DHW
Part-time Rock-Trac, 4.0:1 low range

I specifically want the normal 2H / 4H Part-Time / N / 4L configuration, not the MP3022/full-time/4H Auto setup.

I’ve found a low-mileage used DHW case from a 2025 donor, and the interchange data shows the same case for 2024–26 Gladiator automatics and 2024–25 Wrangler 2.0/3.6 automatics. Mopar also lists 68577452AB as fitting the 2025 Gladiator 3.6/850RE application.

Has anyone in here swapped the 2.72:1 with the 4.0:1 transfer case? If yes, I’d appreciate any guidance or lessons learned you may have.

Finally updated the grille i had sitting around for the last 2 or so months, washed the truck after it sitting for about that time and was like, oh no that won’t do!

Satisfied with the result, will see how it lasts though haha.

Was a perfect time to give the lights a quick polish too!

2023 Jeep Gladiator Sport S Max Tow feedback from people who have experience building these trucks.

1 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I’m about to order a lift setup for my 2023 Jeep Gladiator Sport S Max Tow and wanted to get some feedback from people who have experience building these trucks.

I’m planning on running 35x11.5R17 tires, so nothing too crazy. My main priority is keeping the truck as functional as possible for towing while gaining around 2.5" of lift.

I originally planned on keeping the factory Max Tow rear springs because I’m really happy with how they handle my trailer. I understand that lifting the truck and going to 35s will affect towing performance, but I don't want to unnecessarily soften the rear suspension or lose the loaded characteristics of the Max Tow springs.

Since most complete lift kits replace the rear coils, I decided to put together my own setup:

Front coils: TeraFlex 2.5" Lift Coil Springs – 1872100
Front shocks: Bilstein 5100, 2–3" lift – 33-305219
Rear shocks: Bilstein 5100, 0–1" lift – 33-304854
Rear lift: ICON 1.38" Rear Coil Spacer Kit – 22065, retaining the factory Max Tow rear coils
Front lower control arms: TeraFlex Sport, 1.5–3.5" lift – 1253000
Front track bar: TeraFlex HD Forged Adjustable Track Bar, 0–6" lift – 1753420
Sway-bar disconnects: JKS Quicker Disconnects, 2.5–6" lift – 2033

Before I order everything, I'd appreciate another set of eyes on the setup.

Anything I'm missing for proper suspension geometry at roughly 2.5" of front lift? I'm especially interested in caster, bump-stop requirements, brake-line/ABS-wire clearance, driveshaft angles, sway-bar geometry and whether the rear shock length is appropriate with the 1.38" spacer.

I'm not building a rock crawler. The truck sees mostly highway, towing and normal driving with some trails/off-road use. My goal is a reliable, good-handling setup on 35x11.5s without sacrificing the Max Tow characteristics more than necessary.

If anyone has built something similar while retaining the Max Tow rear coils, I'd really appreciate your experience or suggestions.

Thanks!

Tow/haul mode disengage odometer?

0 Upvotes

Does tow/haul mode disengage odometer? I’m assuming it doesn’t - but that makes it hard to gauge maintenance intervals without having a notebook to keep track of all that.

If it’s disengaged- how do you handle knowing “when”?

Windshield calibration issue

2 Upvotes

We purchased a 2026 jeep gladiator mojave and within 2 weeks had to utilize a windshield replacement package we purchased with the vehicle through permaplate. Safelite came out to replace the glass and was unable to connect to the vehicle computer to do calibration. We took it into a safelite location and same thing. Even using 2 other 3rd party calibration systems. Safelite says it’s a vehicle computer issue. Dealer says it’s safelite and they either installed the glass wrong or used the wrong glass. The glass has a part number consistent with jeep factory OEM gorilla glass. We have no resolved the issue and calibration still not done. The vehicle app is now throwing a powertrain malfunction indicator light and a recall. Has anyone had this issue? If so what was the resolution

Recently swapped out the PCV valve and will do a Dorman oil filter housing and plugs when I reach 100K.

I also scheduled recall service work for 21D. Don’t want it to catch on fire 😅

Has anyone had a problem with the left side speakers stop working randomly wether I have my phone connected or on the radio. I have checked the audio settings and it is set to have the audio centered but the whole left side isn’t working but after it has been off not running for a while it will work fine.
