The voice of experince here. Do not cheap out on suspensions. Do your homework, be patient and do it ONCE. Frankly, from my experience other than the fact it doesn't provide adjustable or lengthened track bars the Mopar kit is hard to beat up to 37" tires. We have five tour Gladiators with the...
This setup is similar to replaceable batteries in a flashlight. It may be that only one of them is in its death throes, but you should replace both at the same time. One on its way out will slowly kill the other.
There's a lot of “Internet wisdom” on this subject, a lot of it just jumping to...
I just did this kit on a new ‘23 Willys Sport. The stock stance/rake was excessive IMHO. Ideally I’d have preferred a 1” longer spring as we have no idea how long those TF spacers will last. Not sure if a Rubicon or Mohave front spring set would have done the job. But, these retain the nice...
I didn't read through all the posts here so sorry if this has been covered. I put the TF 1.5" spacer kit on my new '23 Willys to level it out and get rid of that rake. I did notice the reduction in caster almost immediately, so I just installed the Mopar 2" kit front lower control arms and based...
Our Jeep tour business runs five ‘21 Gladiator Max Tow Sports with the Mopar 2” lifts & 33s. I took advantage of the big discount binge and scored a ‘23 Willys rather than a Mojave or Rubi, primarily because I have a built JK that does the heavy lifting. No mods for the Willys….except for 33s...
On a recommendation I installed the RokBlokz fronts on our three Jeep Tour Gladiators. They have worked extremely well and have held up remarkably. I'll put a set on my personal JT soon.
Front control arm drop brackets are a way to keep the front control arms in the same orientation as stock and eliminate the need for adjustable arms. As you lift the frame with longer springs arms start to form a downward orientation that reduces caster and can increase impact jolts into the...
What you don't know is what occured during those first 12,000 miles at the hands of the first owner, OR, if at one of the oil changes an absent-minded tech maybe started it up with no oil in the crankcase. Whatever, glad they stepped up and got you a new engine.
I just put the TF 1.5" kit on my Willys in my garage using floor jacks. I've done quite a bit of Jeep suspension work and it took me maybe 3 hours with breaks. Since I'm in a neighborhood I kept the air tool use to a minimum. (I'm an ex-tech, I'm also 78 freekin' years old!) A good shop should...
We have Quadratec mats in one of our tour JTs that have he’d up well. We also have the Mopar mats in two others. They have the little drains in the front ones that work well. They use the rubber plugs from the floor pan. One caution, the plugs can get kicked loose easily and end up lost. I don’t...
I got virtually this same Willys from our local dealer for that price and I bet had I haggled on the trade a bit more it would have been even less.. The vehicle is a great package but the sticker price is absurd, as are all the JL/JT prices.
I got a Gator tri fold soft cover from Real Trucks for my new Willys Sport. About $250, fine for what it is. We’ll made, will keep snow out of the bed.
Back in 2015 I bought a JKUR cage from RH4X4. Am very disappointed in not only the quality of the product (sloppy welds, did not fit well, dash cross bar too short, warped the dash, etc.) but their response to my requests for help were downright insulting. I would never buy another of their...
That the sticker on my recently acquired Gladiator Willys Sport was $59,625 was ridiculous, that it had sat in dealer inventory since July was all anyone needed to know about Jeep pricing. I pounced on it when the dealer added some of his factory-to-dealer incentive "trunk money" to the rebate...
Buy to enjoy, it isn't an investment. Pay cash, maintain and keep it ten years or more, ignore the market ups & downs.
My local dealer had a $10k off deal going, took off another $2k and gave me a "meh" trade on my 10 year old F150. Wrote them a check for the balance. Hope to keep it until I'm...
Having had wretched wet weather experiences with BFG KM2s on my JK, I took my new Willys over to Big O and my friends there were kind enough to sell me a nicely discounted set of LT285/70 R17 BFG KO2s, along with a very fair trade in of the smaller 225/75 R17 KM2s, PLUS, rebates from both BFG...
Nice!
I just picked up a new '23 Willys Sport in that color. I have a built JK for serious trails, wanted the Gladiator as a daily driver so passed on the more trail capable versions. I manage a Jeep tour operation and we have five Gladiator Sport / Max Tows in tour service. We added the Mopar...
