I believe this is the best DIY video I have ever seen! My favorite part is no editing... We all goof up a bit.... I wish I could change my tires every time I rotate my Oil. I just loved that!!! And my child put rocks in my pump!! YOU got a new sub, and please keep them coming real!! As I am saying goodbye for now, I still have a smile on my face!! Thank you!
Great video and I appreciate you taking the time to show some of the other components that get neglected and don't get inspected. Never knew about the door hinges but that's getting added to the list. I'll be checking my hubs when I do my fluids and rotate the tires next weekend.
Before pulling that oil filter out, lay some shop towel around the underside, and cover that alternator; also do that gasket/filter stuff over a trash can, not your engine bay.
Just did my 2nd oil change and tire rotation. I expected my tire pressure to be off after rotating. Ends up these Gladiators are pretty balanced at 53% Front and 47% Rear.
Great video! Just one bit of advice though, I know everyone’s got opinions but I just wanta help you out. Mobile 1 unfortunately is not certified for Mopar engines. If you check the certifications on the bottles you’ll notice it’s not certified Chrysler MS-6395. Penzoil is. So I recommend going with directly Mopar or Penzoil
FYI make an excel file for maintenance tracking. Beeen doing this for years (in this case I used apple numbers). I’ve tract cost over the life time of 4 vehicles. Tesla model 3 and Prius have the lowest maintenance cost. Jeep is my highest haha
Great video and very informative. The oil smell and visible oil on the valve covers, could be related to a leaking oil cooler. Its made of plastic, 🙄 and sits in the valley between the heads. They are prone to cracking, so an inspection of it may be worthwhile. Also, Baxter makes a screw-on oil filter adapter, (metal,) that replaces the plastic 🙄 cap and gets rid of the filter cartridge. What's great about it is that it keeps oil at the top of the engine to help lubricate the valves during start-up, thus eliminating dry starts, which can prematurely wear out the camshaft lobes and rockers. Its easy to install and may prolong the life of your engine. Again, thanks for making a great video.
Instead of using the pour to clean oil, fill with oil and run the vehicle for 5 minutes, drain and refill. Does it cost some money? Yes, but it cleans everything out entirely.
please include the cleaning of the drain plugs and oil filter caps etc. also FYI lay a shop rag over the alternator before oil filter change just a good step
You're welcome, I enjoyed making it! That's why I put out these videos. I've also made a lot of mistakes over the years and have learned what could have prevented many of them.
Excellent video, good tips especially the door hinges. My dad taught me to remove the fill plug first before the drain plug. If for any reason the fill plug is gacked, you sure don’t want to find out after the fluid is drained
Keep the little squirt tops from the differential oil bottles to use to fill the transfer case. Can also use it in combination with a small hose to fill the manual transmission.

Was telling my wife best diy video I ever seen learned so much and laughed my face off

Good info in here, a lot of people just want to play but forget this part of the adventure. Good job! 👍🏻
Thank you! Now I need to go purchase a fluid pump.
@@Berserkeroffroad That part had me cracking up. It’s like you’ve filmed me doing it myself… 😂😂😂

Great video. Thanks for sharing. My '20 just hit 40k.
Nice video I enjoyed doing this work so I probably do more maintenance than I absolutely have to but like you I enjoy it.
Thanks for sharing these tips it was something I needed to know.
Thank you for taking time out to make this for us

Always enjoy your show dude.
Excellent video young man, well done

I thought I was the only one who said “Click” when it was hand torqued.
Impressive that your 40K mile Glad is mostly OEM 👍
Great video! This will be my weekend project. When will you plan on changing your brake pads?
Every time I rotate my oil, I change my tires 😂😂😂😂
Note to self “buy a another hand pump”

Please make another maintenance video in the future! Very informative I learned a lot! Subbed
Good video. Always fun to take care of our vehicles. I enjoy your delivery and yeah, I chuckled at the TC fluid bloopers. Haha! Stay safe out there!
21 gladiator, had power steering fluid leak, 7 hr job at dealership, under warranty. Was the hose. Great video!
Only thing I’d do different is putting Teflon paste back on your fill and drain plugs for transfer case and Diffs.
i own a gladiator myself and this DIY video is a Godsend. thank you sir. i salute you
Have you checked the oil cooler housing assembly? I had similar issues and it was that

This was a great video!!! Thanks from a new jeep owner!

Great Vid 😂 Real life struggles!
Miss your great videos, hope all is well
I appreciate this video especially for the effort and overall detail. This is an expense for sure, overall excellent content. Time well spent.

The end looked like Last Dollar Road
I appreciate the video. I'm due for tire rotation, oil, and dif changes. I'm excited to do it myself as well.
Awesome video! Really appreciate all of the info. You definitely motivated me to do some of my maintenance ahead of schedule.
Can you change my differential fluid? Dealer wants $1,000 for that service
It was painful to watch you try to fill the transfer case!!😂😂😂
Great video.
What about the transmission fluid?
What size wrench is needed for the T case plugs?
This is a great video and info shared, thanks!!
Incredible video. Thanks
I'm going to do the same thing to my ZJ
And that’s the first thing someone should do with any new to them used vehicle if there’s no records
Great point!
Did the dealer fix the leak?
I haven't taken it in yet.
@@Berserkeroffroadany update?

Those tires aren’t actually gonna function as a mud terrain, as we can see, too worn! Normal, tires are consumable.
Nice info. Enjoy your humor and videos. Keep them coming.
Keep the little squirt tops from the differential oil bottles to use to fill the transfer case.
Can also use it in combination with a small hose to fill the manual transmission.
Rule one of off roading don't look too closely at the paint.😂
Love yuh Funnel!
