do I have the "wide" axles or not

[BonesDT]

I have to order some replacement steering parts for my 2020 Gladiator Overland, but I need to know if I have the Dana M210 Wide front axle or not.

I can't seem to get a definitive answer as to what these trucks came with. I have a manual V6 with the Trailer Tow package for whatever that's worth.

Is there a way I can definitively confirm on the axle tag? What code would I be looking for?

Overland models do not come with the wide axles.

I have a 22 Overland- no wide axles... but if there's info you need for your pickup.. can lookup here: (copying from someone elses post on a different thread)

You can lookup the full build sheet here.

That will depend if your Overland has a foot fetish or not.

Unless mistaken, drag link and tie rod would be the only difference, otherwise the other parts for steering would remain the same.

No Overland ever had wide axles. (edit: let's clarify to exclude diesel - whole other animal)
The High Altitude, based on the Overland does - but you'd know if you had a High Altitude, and they never existed in 2020.
I had a 2020 Overland and now have a 2022 Overland, absolutely confirm - no matter how it's ordered or loaded or what packages an Overland has - no to wide axles.

Sport series with MAX TOW, Mojave, Rubicon, and High Altitude have the "wide axles" (a whopping 1.5" difference, 0.75" per side)
Otherwise, others do not.

Size matters...

Size matters...

It does for things like towing stability, running autocross events.......

Otherwise, those who put on wider tires or run spacers....... can get pretty much the same effect.

That .75" would give her a new thrill.

Exactly. Wide axles are the viagra of the Jeep world.

I had a 2020 High Altitude ( I totalled it)
VIN 1C6HJTAG7LL213194
Check the window sticker and build sheet for my old truck. You will see the Altitude package on the window sticker and the M210 & M220 axles on the build sheet.

One other bit of info regarding wide axles, the wide ones have 10mm thick tube walls and the others are 8mm thick. I can confirm this as true.

I know he says he has the manual transmission, so no diesel...but don't all diesels have wide axles???

As far as I know all diesels have automatic and according to the build sheet my Overland has wide axles.

Edit: made a comment about windows stickers, but comment above mine showed a build sheet with wide axles.

Are you sure it was High Altitude and not the Altitude package?
