Did you get your axles installed? Was it straight forward with the new axle’s replacing the originals? Everything lining up and connecting?

I am considering going to the Rubicon axles but have had concerns with some of the details ie drive shaft length, Brake components and wiring the lockers. I have found wiring the lockers info on the Wrangler Forum but haven’t seen any threads Re. Subject swap here on the Gladiator side. Let me...

Do you know if the Rubicon axles are direct replacement for the Sport or Sport S?

Will Gladiator Rubicon axles directly swap with Gladiator Sport axles? Are the brakes (caliper/disc) on the Sport the same as on a Rubicon and is the drive shaft the same length for both Rubicon and Sport. I realize the locker electric will need to be configured and that the Rubicon axles are...

I thought that would be the answer. Thanks for the response.

Does the front axle have the factory locker?

FYI or not. Rob’s channel has covered this and it may be of helpful. He posted a couple other videos Re: the grill prior to this one also.

I have the same setup. Works for me at this stage. I tow and haul materials occasionally. However, I realize the Gladiator with 34” tires is at the tipping point. With any larger tires new gearing will be required.

Looks good. Did you measure the lift you got? How’s the ride?

Gladiators are not know for hyper mileage. For short trip driving I average 14.5 mpg. For long trip freeway only I can get up to 21 mpg. My Gladiator is equipped with 3.6 gas engine, auto trans and 3:73 gear ratio. MPG has never been as low as 12 mpg.

I just went out and took a picture of my Nfab steps. Looking at the pictures the steps are in the same position relative to doors. Looks good to me!

That is correct. The step will not line up. It will be obvious once you line the steps up to the cab. I have them on my Gladiator also.

Thanks for the write up on the bed chop. I see the bed chop becoming a common modification for the Gladiator crowd. You pioneering and documenting your bed chop mod will help many of us in the Gladiator world get started in making the Gladiator a much more off road capable Jeep. Hope you had...

Looks great! For serious off roaders this is the way to go with the Gladiator.

Both look Great! I have a bias in favor of the Bright White.

Took a drive yesterday and got 38.8 mpg to my destination 25 miles away with a elevation drop of 2000'. Things changed when I returned to 2580' elevation. For the trip I averaged 21.4 mpg. I am pleased to see, with mostly freeway driveing, an average mpg above 20.

I had the measurements from before and after lift. The Mopar lift gave 3 inch of lift to the rear. I figured the rear needed to go down 1.5 inches. I put the stock rear springs back in with 1 3/8 inch spacers. This put the stance at close to level. The rear remained slightly higher.

I experienced the same stink bug stance with the Mopar lift. I did not like the look and stance at all. My first fix was to lower the rear end by 1.5 inch. Final fix was a pair of Rubicon front fenders and reinstalling the lift springs. I just saw your post for fenders! ?

I was wondering about the brakes in the Max Tow. Do you know what the actual difference is in the Brake System?

Yes the fronts are an easy installation. Make sure you have extra fastener clips as some will break removing the fenders. I found a set with LED running and turn signal lights. On mine the harness was plug and play. I did change the settings for LED lights.
