  1. Max tow package with Trac Lok?

    Yes, that's exactly what bld should do.
  2. Max tow package with Trac Lok?

    If the door harnesses are unplugged then the interlock is disabled.
  3. Max tow package with Trac Lok?

    If you disable it in 2 hi you'll just get the old 1 wheel peel, not sure why that would ever be preferable.
  4. Max tow package with Trac Lok?

    You're conflating traction control with BLD. If you turn traction control off, BLD is still active. So yeah, traction control can hurt because it cuts engine power to control wheel spin, BLD doesn't, it just brakes the wheel spinning faster so the engine power goes to the other wheel, but it...
  5. JLUR converted to JT owners.

    More utilitarian than a truck? I've found the opposite, but I have a smaller (~35lbs) dog, so he fits fine in a back seat. With a soft topper on the bed, I have ~2x the enclosed cargo space vs. my JLUR...
  6. JLUR converted to JT owners.

    Good: Versatility, towing and hauling, slightly quieter ride (rear wheel wells no longer inside the cab). Bad: Slightly worse handling, under damped compared to the JLUR, 1mpg drop, slightly worse off-road, less accessories available (but more at launch) Mine is as direct a comparison as can...
  7. What to buy Mojave or Rubicon?

    Hi in almost all transfer cases is 1:1. Correct on low.
  8. What to buy Mojave or Rubicon?

    Yeah, I get that but I haven't run into that too often - where a trail has high speed sections that also requires 4 low more than once or twice. Usually it's mostly one or the other, but I can see that being a concern out west, just not so much on the east coast where I've been. I usually...
  9. What to buy Mojave or Rubicon?

    30mph is usually my cutoff - if I'm doing over 30mph I figure I don't need the lockers or higher torque multiplication, so just run 4 hi. On trails where speeds are lower than that I leave it in 4 low. With the 2.72 t-case you could push that up to 40 or 50mph, but I really don't know why...
  10. What to buy Mojave or Rubicon?

    Not really - at least not stock. I will say the Rubicon is quite good on washboard roads, but too softly damped on road - I think the shocks are setup more for washboard stuff than anything else. I think a Rubi with adjustable shocks ticks most of your boxes except the higher range 4 low, but...
  11. More modding than enjoying?

    It kind of boggles my mind - people start planning their mods before they even get it and see what it can do. I take mine out for a trip and if there's something I find I really need or something that would make things easier after a couple of trips, I put it in, but it's driven by use, not...
  12. Slush Mats with Red Letters

    Factory are black, aftermarket are red. I have the red ones I got from Amazon, my JLUR came factory with them and they were black. I think the red goes well with the Rubicon red accents but otherwise it's not something I notice much. Big thing is the body plugs are not the same black as the...
  13. Jeep Gladiator Mojave Edition! [Updated With Live Pics and Chassis/Suspension Breakdown]

    I think that's most likely 40lbs less weight it's carrying stock. GVWR will likely be identical, like it is with a JTR and Sport S max tow (6250lbs). The Max tow just has 350-400lbs less equipment stock.
  14. What to buy Mojave or Rubicon?

    Those are adjustable, I didn't think the Mojave had adjustable shocks.
  15. What to buy Mojave or Rubicon?

    I believe the point of a payload rating is that it can handle that and function as intended. There is nothing in the manual on my Rubicon that says you have to reduce weight off-road, or that the payload rating is a static rating. I don't anticipate the mojave is any different - that's why...
  16. What to buy Mojave or Rubicon?

    One of the selling points of the JT is that, in stock form, you don't have to modify the suspension for overlanding duty. It can handle 1200+lbs stock, even in Rubicon form. I've had it loaded close to that off-road and it's fine. It's actually just highway duty where it suffers when loaded...
  17. Can You Lock Rear Differential in 4High?

    So the '20's won't get this as a software update? What about the '20 Mojaves? They're advertised with it but won't get it? Still waiting for selective tire fill alert on my '20 rubi, you guys shouldn't advertise stuff that you don't plan to put on the vehicle, that's two functions that were...
  18. What to buy Mojave or Rubicon?

    I wouldn't lift a mojave, you'd be wasting around $3k in fancy shocks. A sport S max tow will probably give you everything you need without a bunch of stuff you don't - nothing you plan to do with it sounds like you need a locker. You can still do desert running and rocks in a regular...
  19. Winches!

    It does - but I'd argue the LED package is worth it regardless of the bumper and at that point you're similar in cost to aftermarket...None of which look as well integrated as the factory steel bumper, but that's subjective. I didn't realize the LED package was required for the steel bumper...
  20. Winches!

    I went superwinch ts9500s and omix mount, very low profile, works well.
