Does anyone actually use these guys. It seems they do a $100 mark up on the Smittybuikt Gen 1 bumper ( online +shipping) . I have seen others on their site pushing $2k, seriously. I asked about a 2 inch puck lift install, $800 plus vs Les Schwab’s $280. They quoted me $400 labor to install a...
How much fuel do you really need? Fill up before you go, top off near trail, that’s at least 200 miles oh wheeling at 10 mpg, carry a rotopax or two and you should be fine. With two rotopax that’s about 90 Mikes of two wheeling (get there and back gas). Rember extra fuel costs room, weight and...
i agree with you ccomplelty. True story, Ran my lifted 77 Chevy 3/4 ton for years on 38s and never an issue.the one day ?I smacked a rock, hard, cracked the frame right at the steering box mount. Ouch. Welded and gussetted and bought a stabilizer lol
Oh and just in case anyone is curious, 33X12.50 x 18 with 4.5 backspaced Fuel wheels will fit just fine on stock, nonRubicon Gladiator. Never rubs or hits.
FYI a 1.5 to 2” lift will shift the front front axle back slightly and rear axle forward slightly, adjustable control arms will bring that back, but it is so small as not to be an issue. it will change the driveshaft to axle angle but again, within tolerances. The Loft will also shift the front...
Eveyone is correct, sort of. True the engineers know what they are doing. Building a vehicle for Mr. Average Jeep driver. That’s why they don’t come with 4” lifts on 37’s. (Limts Customer base) As a matter of fact, all cars are engineered to Their respective “masses“ and longevity and...
Sport S sport overland. No matter all have same front end five or take. Rubicon has the taller fender. Here is stick height overland, mine with 33x12:5x18
Here is my bullet proof Setup . Trail camera/dashcam (hard to see in middle, iphone 5 set on loop mode), iPhone 11plus Mount (iphone took the picture) and iPad 11” mount. Hard to see but GoPro mount just behind iPhone mount. All done with two double ball mount. Can still put stuff in center...
Got a North Edition Overland. Had chance at Rubi gor slmost same price but less interior options. Wife hated the red dash and the
overland had Toyo MT tires and Fuel wheels. Besides I woulda stripped out the Rubi suspensio for a lift anyway, so why pay for it? It didnt even have the steel...
Absolute best $900 and some change on Amazon, comes highly recommended by all the pro truck stores and I’ve had one for six years on my Sierra. Fitment oh my gladiator is perfect I love it
Hard cover Ultraflex by Undercover
I watched a review on that winch, you tube. Guy has three Jeeps and Has stage built his gladiator. The review was good and that winch is solid. Now, there are Harbor Freights everywhere For replacement parts.. not so much For the “name” brands, something to think about out on the trail away...
Nope, unless I haven’t seen the same marketing you have. I haven’t seen one woman driving a jeep gladiator yet. Even the model name gladiator doesn’t look like it’s being marketed to a woman. Not gat there aren’t women owners, this forum included. But most stuff I seen on tv had a dude at the...
seriously! You gonna go with that? Haha personally
I like the Overland styling And with a few bucks,, around 2500,it can run a rubi into the ground (cost comes to the same with 2 inches of lift and bigger tires) And of note, serious “macho” Off-roaders change the gears, tires, suspension...
It seems the ICON kits are Playing Mercedes/BMW. More than double and sometimes three times the cost of other kits. I think perhaps if you were prerunning or racing maybe. But $5000 plus for a 2.5 inch kit, kinda steep! That would make each component worth what $500 to $600 ish. if you divided...
