In the coming months I'll be copying RECON's Hellcat swapped Gladiator:
-Mopar 2" lift
-22x10 Hostile Fury Asphalt
-37x13.50r22 Gladiator XCOMP MT or similar

It's not going to see rocks probably ever, just beach sand, occasional muddy backroads and the now seemingly annually flooded highways of Southeast Texas.

I'll be moving to Beaumont from Kirbyville this summer, currently overseas though.
Very cool I know a few people out that way.. I’m actually in fannett, but have Beaumont address. There’s a southeast Texas Gladiator Facebook group if your interested in that sort of thing. Good info available nonetheless. I’ll see you around. Your going to love your JT.. Here’s mine.

Awesome, love your JTR man. I'm hopefully going to be moving over in the Amelia area. Mid-County has mine until I get back, can't wait to drive it off the lot lol.

Couple shots of my rubicon on 37’s and then my buddy’s sport with wrangler rubicon wheels and 33’s. Both have the mopar 2 inch lift. The white one could take more tire.

I remember you saying you were 38” tires and manual without re-gearing.. how is your performance? I’m about to step up to the plate for tires and am considering 37’s.. but don’t want to afford the regear at this time. How often do you ride in 5/6 gear? Is it a dog in the city?

2020 LE Gladiator
Just installed the 2" Mopar this weekend. It was a pita doing it myself with my garage setup but it turned out great! Torquing the control arms to 190 lbs is a bit tough on jack stands but do-able. Took it to the shop for an alignment and is driving great. Put on a Fox TS steering stabilizer to button things up and rides fantastic! Handling prior to the stabilizer was questionable after the lift and the stabilizer really firmed things up. 35" KO2s on stock LE wheels, Mopar 2" lift, teraflex 1" leveling puck (took out the 1/2" puck), Fox TS stabilizer and happy with the results. Winch is next to go in but deciding on which one...

So I’ve made up my mind and I’m going with Mopar beadlock capable wheels and 35” KM3’s. However I’m really starting question if I want to go with the Mopar 2” lift or just save a ton of cash and get the teraflex 1.5” leveling kit and the Daystar .75” rear spacer lift.

My question is. What is going to be the big difference to justify the cost of the lift kit vs the level kit?

I guess I’m struggling with the thought of paying for the stock rubicon w/fox shocks just to pull them out and put new ones in.

Just purchased mine this past week. I have the MOPAR 2 inch lift with 33s.
LOVE those side decals. Were they on the truck or did you install? Link?

Thanks,
Matt

Anyone Running 37s on 18''? Curious for the look. Just. purchased black rhino Abrams 18x9.5 and I feel like I should have gone with 17s lol. Going to be running 37s.
I just ordered this exact same setup (the titanium color or whatever). Why would you want 17s?

They were already installed on it. Unfortunately they will probably be coming off this weekend. They're already starting to peel. If I let them be I don't think they would survive a Texas summer.
