  1. How bouncy is normal for a Rubicon?

    Figured I'd go ahead and update. I changed our my rears first cause I suspected they were the main problem and that definitely made a big difference. Unfortunately it also made me realize the fronts were nearly as bad. More unfortunately apparently there is a nationwide backorder for the stock...

  3. Winter Storm Jan 6-7 2025 Post Pics Here!

    Mine became a personal snow lift for my wife to ski down our road... I had no objections. Our son even cleaned it off for me!
  4. How bouncy is normal for a Rubicon?

    I'm hoping the shocks will be good enough for now, but I'm not opposed to some 1-2" lift springs next if I need to.
  5. How bouncy is normal for a Rubicon?

    . Nice. I almost got a launch edition myself, it was nearly the same OTD as what I got my JTR for, but it was black and had some gaudy red wheels on it and I knew I'd never keep it from looking scratched all to hell. I'm sure I'll be regretting not having adaptive cruise when I go on my next...
  6. How bouncy is normal for a Rubicon?

    I appreciate the input! I'll see how the Ranchos feel, from what little I've found they look pretty good for what I'm looking for. I've always liked going down the path less travelled, especially with stuff that most opinions aren't formed with 1st hand experience of products. For example...
  7. How bouncy is normal for a Rubicon?

    Yeah, I saw a few people making sleeves to make them work. Idk if it's worth the effort doing more research, seems like they wear out pretty quick too. I ordered some Rancho RS7MT shocks, I like the idea a solid linear damping monotube given the amount of rough dirt roads I drive on. I'll make...
  8. How bouncy is normal for a Rubicon?

    That's unfortunate, but kind of what I figured given my WJ has a cheap 2" lift with RC rear shocks... I was planning on finding some Mojave takeoffs in the future, still deciding if it's worth it. Might get some reasonably cheap shocks to hold me over for a year or two though, got other stuff...
  9. How bouncy is normal for a Rubicon?

    I just got my JTR last weekend and I'm loving it so far. I've read that the rear suspension is generally a little too soft which I have definitely noticed. I wanted to live with it for at least a week to decide if I should address the suspension or if I would get used to it, but coming from...
  10. My Gladiator came with 35s, I'm looking to downsize... trade?

    Thanks for pointing that out! Once again I shouldn't trust what the dealership tells me, I didn't even think to look it up. The width and offset on these is still much wider than my preference, I'd also prefer a 17" wheel for the cushier side wall. I do love the look of the wheels themselves...
  11. My Gladiator came with 35s, I'm looking to downsize... trade?

    I don't know how many miles are on the tires unfortunately, they came on the truck and the dealership said they didn't put them on. They looked brand new to me, even had yellow markings on the tread side and all the little hairs new tires have. I've put about 300 miles on the truck so far...

    Lol, thankfully I found one that's setup pretty much how I want it already. I do want a tazer though, and I'm trying to trade the 35s for a smaller setup. The dealer also said it was "lifted" but I'm finding that extremely hard to believe and it definitely looks like it has the stock springs...

    Just picked up my Gladiator on Saturday. Had to stop on my way home from work today for this sunset :)
  14. My Gladiator came with 35s, I'm looking to downsize... trade?

    Oh wow, thanks for the tip on the TPMS sensors! Here's a few pics of the wheels/tires for any interested. (Also, I apologize they aren't clean, I both live and work up dirt roads, which is a large part of why I don't love these wheels, it's going to be impossible to keep my truck even remotely...
  15. My Gladiator came with 35s, I'm looking to downsize... trade?

    I just bought my Rubicon and it came on a really nice set of 305/65r18 Nitto Recon Graplers on Fuel Vector wheels. Since I daily my truck on windy GA mountain roads they're just not my thing so I'm considering downsizing to a set of Rubicon or Mojave take offs or similar. If anyone is...
  16. Introductions & Welcome Thread 👋

    Hey everyone. After saving for the down payment since launch (among the other bills that come with the 2 kids I've had since) I finally got my Gladiator on Saturday after being back and forth with dealers working on a price I was happy with for a month. 2020 Rubicon, broke it in on a local...
