  1. FIRECRACKER RED Gladiator JT Club

    I am so torn on wheels/tires/lift. Was thinking I'd do a conservative progressive build (35" then 2.5" lift then maybe upgrade to 37" and springs to 3.5" later and finish with a regear) but wasn't sure if 35" on 0mm offset would look right. Yours looks amazing so I think that may allow me to...
  2. FIRECRACKER RED Gladiator JT Club

    This looks great! What wheels are these and what are offset - do you know?
  3. FIRECRACKER RED Gladiator JT Club

    we did the same thing when our LE was new in October!

    OK thank you for your response! Much appreciated!
  5. JK Gear and Gadgets Trail Testing their new JT Lift Kit

    @Clayton Off Road , looks like youve got a great product! Question for you: what backspace/offset do you require for rims with 37" tires? I'm not crazy about running a 0 or negative offset and like the idea of a 25mm offset on an 17x8.5 rim like method offers. Do you have any limiting specs...
  6. Treating Trail Rash on Rear Bumper

    Thanks. Guess I'll get some primer and black rustoleum and sandpaper tjis afternoon. Just gotta wait for the weather to clear up now...
  7. Treating Trail Rash on Rear Bumper

    Im sure it will happen again so I don’t need to put the time and labor into removing the bumper and taking it to a shop. Just want to minimize rust and keep it looking reasonably clean looking. in this case the entry point was very narrow so sideways was not an option but I do know what you...
  8. Treating Trail Rash on Rear Bumper

    Hey everyone! Got myself into a bit of a pickle last night at RAM Off-road Park here in Colorado Springs. Crossing a gully (with a muddy bottom) I couldn’t climb out and the rear slipped sideways so much I found it better to do the “Austin Powers” 70 point turn maneuver and get turned around...
  9. RC 2.5" front with Rusty's 1.5" rear and MetalCloak Duraspring Bumpstops

    good call on adding the rear spacer—looks great thanks for posting!
  10. RC 2.5" front with Rusty's 1.5" rear and MetalCloak Duraspring Bumpstops

    Nice work! Any photos of before and after the 1.5” spacer in the rear? I’m considering something similar. Hoping MC finishes their 2.5” GC soon but I think it will be a long wait...
  11. Maximus-3 D-Ring Loops - anyone running these?

    Ok so I got it all installed! I took the bumper and winch off and measured the distance between d ring loop mounts and found it to be 413mm (instructions say 424). This lines up very close to the wiring harnesses holes in the tabs of the bumper as I suspected before. I measured and measured...
  12. RLD designs pic request

    My retailer (Lee from Altitude Industries) here in CO said there was a recent Outdoor Retailer show with some JTs on display. Apparently there were a couple V2 canopies there. They look great! Here are some screen shots but you can see more on RLD's instagram page here: Unfortunately...
  13. Maximus-3 D-Ring Loops - anyone running these?

    @Maximus-3 just realized you’re a forum member. Can you advise on the above?
  14. Maximus-3 D-Ring Loops - anyone running these?

    So their site is a little confusing. There are two products—the one pictured is the tow brackets (I think you could also use these for d rings) and the attach to the outer frame rails. The other choice are D Ring brackets that bolt directly to the Maximus-3 winch plate. I chose the latter...
  15. Definitive answer on 35s on stock rubicon Gladiator?

    Can’t wait to see what you pick! Keep us posted!
  16. Definitive answer on 35s on stock rubicon Gladiator?

    Yeah, I’m a mile high minimum :) and while I’m not a hard core rock crawler, most trails we’ve taken and plan to use every bit of articulation available and rubbing the belly is too common on a stock rubicon. Still thinking I can get by on 35” but I think a lift will be necessary eventually too...
  17. Definitive answer on 35s on stock rubicon Gladiator?

    Love this video—I keep watching over and over :) Looks like 0 or even a negative offset on those rims. It looks like they stick out at 1-1.5” is that close? I’m wondering if a 25mm offset would still pull it off without rubbing...
  18. Definitive answer on 35s on stock rubicon Gladiator?

    Thanks for the reply and for clarifying your experiences! Looks awesome! I’m still torn. Would love to jump to 37s directly but I want to do it right. Trying to have a strategy since $$ is getting tight so trying to figure how to build this in stages. 1. 35” tires (likely wheels too) 2. MC...
  19. Definitive answer on 35s on stock rubicon Gladiator?

    What a fun video! Thanks for the share! Do you know offset of the wheels?
  20. Definitive answer on 35s on stock rubicon Gladiator?

    Hey @Sal, awesome photos! Your truck is on a 2” lift in those pictures right? I’m still trying to figure this out. While I think it has been answered that several people have successfully mounted 35’s and even 37’s on stock rubicon rims. I were to buy today I was planning on the General...
