  1. Max Tow owners… what are you towing?

    Primarily a lightweight horse trailer (Brenderup) with one horse; sometimes a 5x8 with one motorcycle. Not more than 3500# so far, but through the mountains of Eastern TN and Western NC. It's a great rig for those purposes!
  2. Does Jeep Cares, really care?

    The one time I contacted Jeep Cares, they were of no help at all. I replaced a fob battery, quite carefully, and when I reassembled the fob, there was a gap. For more on this issue, see the 7 page thread here called "Key Fob Issue and Its Not the Size." The truck was still under factory...
  3. North Carolina Rubicon Takeoff Fox Shocks - $60

    Do you ever get over in the direction of Boone for anything, by any chance? And these are the stock length Rubicon shocks, yes?
  4. North Carolina Rubicon Takeoff Fox Shocks - $60

    Are these still available, by any chance?
  5. Virginia CALTREND Rear Seat Cover

    Just noticed in your sig line that you had a Mojave; unfortunately, your rear seat looks different than the one in my Sport S. But thanks, anyways.
  6. Virginia CALTREND Rear Seat Cover

    Can you confirm these are the black/charcoal, not the black/light gray? I ask because if I bought these, I'd order a front set from Caltrend and I wouldn't want a mismatch...
  7. Factory Falken MT @51K, just changed to BFG AT KO2

    I have E range BFG AT KO 285/75/17s on my truck, and they weigh 2# less new than the slightly smaller Falken Wildpeak MT01 285/70/17s that can be had on many Gladiators, at least going by published specs. I think the BFG AT KOs are generally just a lighter tire than the Falken MT01s.
  8. Potentially joining the Jeep family

    I have a 2020 Sport S (Max Tow), and I tow a Brenderup horse trailer with a single Quarter Horse to and around the mountains of Western N. Carolina fairly regularly. Loaded with the horse, the HT weighs in at about 3300#. I use a WD hitch and trailer brakes, and the rig is stable and...
  9. Please Critique my New Gladiator Configuration

    I don't have SelecTrac (full-time 4WD option) on my 2020 Gladiator (wasn't available in 2020, and I bought used), but I had it on my long-time Cherokee XJ. That is the one thing that I would have added if I could have. I don't think it costs much ($595?), but it is awesome to have when you are...
  10. Rear Window Leak - Difficulty with Dealerships

    For my part, I only noticed that I had this leak when driving over things like speed bumps. I heard a weird sloshing sound. Looked for water and saw none. But in reading the many threads on this leak in this forum, I figured out that water was likely leaking at the rear window seal and...
  11. BFG KO 34 10.50 17 ?

    I am running BFG KO 285/75/17 (E rated) on my 2020 Max Tow. Pretty close in sizing...
  12. Your Other Jeep

    Bought this one new in 1994, don't plan to ever part with it. 4.0L, manual, 3 tops, mild lift, Yukon 3.73 gears, 30" BFGs, a ton of fun...
  13. Bestop Sunrider

    I bought a twill one with a season's use on it in February of 2021, then used it all last summer. It still looks new. In many environments, 2 years old equates to 6-7 months of actual use...
  14. Talk me into it (or out)

    2020 Sport S Max Tow, now with 44,500 miles. Rear window leak (hopefully just fixed), but no other issues...
  15. Towmater build

    It sounds like you have thought this through! I'd love to hear how your setup works when you get everything dialed in!
  16. Towmater build

    Wrote my post before your last one. I have 285/75/17 KO2s on my rig, and they measure right at 33.5." They were on the truck when I bought it. I will probably move down to the size you are running when I replace them, just for weight savings.
  17. Towmater build

    Are those 34" tires? They'll eat away a little at your payload relative to the stockers. Do you have a brake controller? A WD hitch? I have 34s on my Max Tow, and I pretty regularly haul a 3500# horse trailer (weight is loaded with one horse) through the mountains at the TN/NC border, but...

    I'll take it! PM to follow in a few...
  19. How many Jeep branded rides have you owned?

    94 YJ Wrangler (bought new, 4.0L with stick, still have it!) 01 XJ Cherokee (sold sadly when significant other imposed a 2 Jeep limit and I wanted a JT) 20 JT (still have it) As much as I love the JT, I'd sell it before the YJ!
  20. Anyone pulling a horse trailer?

    I pull a lightweight Brenderup HT with one horse loaded fairly regularly about 600 miles each way, with one end of the trip involving about 50 miles going up and down in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The Brenderup is a European trailer, made to be towed to anything from a mid-sized SUV on up, with...
