I’m not touching the clutch pedal at all - no regulation. No slipping - it’s gripping. The stock clutch and very light flywheel suck.

@JTRSpartacus oh ok so not the clutch just comparing weight of clutch and flywheels

Wouldn’t hurt but this fix is an external relay /harness. #JTRSPARTACUS

I’ll have to check. I designed this to be as low profile as possible with the intention of going back to a tonneau but I just got too used to the space with the Supertruck top. It’s way lower profile than a Cargoglide.

@ perfect. That’s exactly set up. A hard bed cover That’s why I want a bed slide Plus I’m mounting g a Yakima carrier on top of my BillieBars

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching. #JTRSPARTACUS

I don’t recall. I just took the factory ones to the hardware store and went a little longer to allow for the thickness of the box and some washers. Thanks for watching. #JTRSPARTACUS

Stock 3.73 gearing is probably ok for stock tires. The 3.6 Pentastar V-6 has no down low torque so more aggressive gearing helps with towing, off-roading , etc. thanks for watching. #JTRSPARTACUS

That would have been a good idea. Didn’t think about it and were using our phones to film. Sounds like a good excuse for another roadtrip. Thanks for watching! #JTRSPARTACUS

@@JTRSpartacus Just subscribed I’ll be waiting🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Ha. Gotta build up some leave at work.

Sounds right for automatic transmission. Not on manual trans.

Yes. No toeing, varied speeds, no high sprrds/high heat. The gear manufacturer has guidance. I followed it to a tee and changed the diff oil after 500 miles. Thanks for watching. #JTRSPARTACUS

The dealership fix is to replace the entire axle assembly. Pretty dumb. It is possible that draining the diff oil and cleaning the sensor real well could fix it. The ZAuto harness is stupid easy. Good luck! #JTRSPARTACUS

@@JTRSpartacus Thank you... it means a lot

Glad it helped!!! Thanks for watching. #JTRSPARTACUS

Just Empty Every Pocket #JTRSPARTACUS

Thanks!! Slowly coming along

Glad to hear. Thanks for watching!!! #JTRSPARTACUS

Seems to be holding up well after a few car washes and after sitting out in the sun. Thanks for watching! #JTRSPARTACUS

😂 funny but the difference between 4.88 and 5.13 is only about 5%. I have no problem cruising at 80mph on the interstate in 6th gear and I can rock crawl in 1st gear in 4 low at 1mph. Different strokes, for different folks. Thanks for watching and commenting! #JTRSPARTACUS

@@JTRSpartacus yeah, I swapped from 4.10s to 5.13s in my 89 f350. It's got a zf5 and a 460 sitting on 35s. We use it to haul hay and farm equipment and that 10% difference is huge when it comes to towing heavy. Where the 4.10s you were safer just staying in 4th and hanging between 55 and 60 mph I've cruised in OD at 65 with 15k worth of hay on the gooseneck and she handles it so much nicer now.

@@GwynethDawn nice! a 460 is 2 cylinders and a little over twice the size of a 3.6liter Pentastar v-6. A Gladiator (especially mine at almost 6,000 lbs…) needs gearing to make up for the wheezy, low torque v6 and the double overdrive makes it work on the highway. Thanks!!

Zero issues after almost 5 years now. Not even when I go thru the touchless carwash. Thanks for watching. #JTRSPARTACUS

Sorry to hear. Not sure why you are running such high rpm. The engineering doesn’t make sense. The difference between 5.13 and 4.88 is marginal and probably a big waste of your money. You may have another issue. Do you have a manual trans?? If you have an auto, did you correct the gears and speedo? Good luck! #JTRSPARTACUS

@@JTRSpartacus sadly, so much of this is over my head. I did this based on what my shop suggested for my needs. I have a Superchips computer module and everything there is correct. Set for 37's and 5.13's. The gears were installed prior to 37's being installed and that's when I was seeing 3,000 RPM at 70 mph. The 37's helped reduce that by about 250 RPM. It's an Auto. The shop says everything is running as it should for this setup. I just can't stand how it performs on the highway. Around town it's actually great. The bigger problem is, I live in Florida and all the road trips I take, are 10+ hours away. I carry a lot of overlanding gear on those trips. If I lived somewhere like Boone, NC this wouldn't be an issue. lol

@@thetrailaheadofus you shouldn’t be at 3,000rpms at 70mph with the 8 speed. I’m at 2,500 with the manual in 6th. Have you tried manually shifting to 8th to see what the rpms are? Something is wrong. I recommend going to a different shop to diagnose the problem. It’s not 5.13 gears and going to 4.88 will only reduce about 5% or 150 rpms but will lighten your wallet significantly.

@@JTRSpartacus 3.6. 5-speed.

@@thetrailaheadofus ohh. Sounds like you have a JK Wrangler Rubi with a 5 speed auto? That’s an entirely different thing and 3,000 rpm at 70mph might be around the ballpark with 5.13 gears since the 5 speed auto overdrive is about 0.83:1. purperformance.com/p-29669-rpm-calculator.html

It’s a project. Looking forward to brining it back to an everyday driver. Got the frame verdict today. Safetcap from rear control arm to the middle section. Thanks for watching.

Have you seen brakes this bad? On a driver!!!! #JTRSPARTACUS

This ZAuto thing worked for me. #JTRSPARTACUS

I just unscrewed the lenses popped it in and the screwed it back together.

I get about 14mpg cruising around in rural, hilly PA. I drove out to Yellowstone and back and averaged 15.6 mpg with a crap ton of gear, my son and me. Thanks for watching. #JTRSPARTACUS

Oh. My mileage with 4.10 was a little worse 13 ish - got a little better with the gear change. Life, towing, off roading got a lot better.

Cool. Appreciate the insights. Thanks for watching. #JTRSPARTACUS

That would be cool for lights underneath or entry/exit lights. Vosswitch doesn’t have any hints on how you could do this but it certainly seems feasible. Good luck and thanks for watching. #JTRSPARTACUS

Have you read the code? Does the dash ga😅ge show lower than 13 volts. Also You can take a voltage reading while running Could be a lot of things. Good luck. #JTRSPARTACUS

Sorry. No video. If you disconnect all of the negative side cables it will disconnect from the main battery and sux battery.

Almost no true level spots where I live in Pennsylvania can’t say for my colleague in Canada. In PA it’s small hills that go up and down and average out. Not scientific but a decent comparison if I do say so, myself. Thanks for watching. #JTRSPARTACUS

I have 1st gear and use it daily. It’s short but unless it’s completely flat or downhill, I use 1st to take off. The difference between 4.88 and 5.13 is about 5%. I’d rather have the extra 5% lower gears in the mountains or when towing. Thanks for watching. #JTRSPARTACUS

It’s not great. 5th and 6th basically become unusable if you live where there are any hills. My MPGs went down about 3mpg to 12-13. I ended up regearing to 5.13 gears and it’s much better. MPGs are 13-14, so not a huge improvement but the power and drivability is much better. Good luck! #JTRSPARTACUS

@@JTRSpartacus thank you!

Sorry to hear. The Zautomotive harness fixed it for me. Good luck! #JTRSPARTACUS

Thanks! # JTRSPARTACUS

I put it in 4wd high and drove on dirt roads. Warmed the gears up a little and then changed the fluid.

You definitely need to disconnect the auxiliary battery - all of the cables. If you have power to anything, the relearn procedure won’t work. You may need to get creative about how /where you disconnect and reconnect - close to a highway. It’s a pain but it’ll work. Good luck ! #JTRSPARTACUS

@@JTRSpartacus i see, so apparently the relearn must be completed before error happens--that will indeed be challenging--thanks!

@@lawnews I think that it must be completed before the error pops up. Good luck.

Sorry to hear…No it didn’t fail. It was just lightweight junk. I didn’t want the recall because it was lightweight junk. The Centerforce clutch is a game changer. Also… the factory clutch is only under warranty for 12,000 miles. That shows how good they think it is. Good luck!! #JTRSPARTACUS

Yeah. The dealer doesn’t have a lot of expertise with axles. This sensor gets dirty and sometimes chaining the fluid and cleaning the sensor will fix. The ZAuto module makes the locker work as intended. Thanks for watching and good luck!! #JTRSPARTACUS

@@JTRSpartacushow tonclean ?

I’m on my second axel I’m guessing it’s going to happening again. If the sensor is not updated or potted.

Glad I could help! Good luck. #JTRSPARTACUS
