I have a spare 39" KM3 under my bed. 3-4 psi and ratchet strapped to keep the tread away from rubbing on the track bar. I have about 6-7 trail days on that setup. It works but I've been casually looking for a track bar with a bend in it when I'm not working on a couple other projects (track bar...
All of the bumpers and rocker protection on my JT gets used on Moab trails in various places/methods. Sometimes its required, sometimes its just because I missed a line by an inch or two.
If I happen to get down there while you're there, I'll have to look you up.
These pics are from a January...
By the end of the trip, you'll have some scrapes on those skids but they should serve you well? Your rig looks like it's good to run up to 6-7 rated trails in Moab. You COULD get away with 8 rated trails but since you're driving it out/back, I'd use some discretion. Obviously, your rig, your...
I'll be there on Saturday for the RR4W Trail of the Month. Swing on down :D (bit of a trip for you--I'm missing a Buick event in Bowling Green, KY so I understand WV is not that close) We'll eat afterwards
I've had my Gladiator on Steel Bender, Metal Masher and lead Poison Spider for EJS on Sunday. For a "mild" built Gladiator like yours, (mine is built similar and I spend at least 20+ days per year in/around Moab) I draw the line at Poison Spider, Metal Masher, Golden Spike, Steel Bender etc. I...
That was my most eventful day for a while. One rig sheared studs at the axle flange due to wheel spacers, one of my gunners lost a sidewall and had to bail after trying to patch it, and another spacer issue on the way out.
I've been watching the TrailMater channel for the wheel stud fix

Bummed I didn't run into anyone from this board this year but love the photos and enjoyed the event as I usually do.
Only pics I took of my rig through the week .
Great point! If I'm not mistaken, that's a freshly remodeled hotel (formerly the Super8 in the same parking lot as the former Denny's). Please take advantage of the offer.
Hope to see some of you around this year. I'm a participant on Hells on Sat, leading Poison Spider on Sunday, leading...
I use my Gladiator in/around Utah. I run 17" wheels just for the sidewall flex with the 37" or 38" tires. If I were to go 40" or over, I'd consider a 20" wheel.
A 40"+ tire is not what I use my Gladiator for so mine will stick to 17" wheels.
The 128 hwy should be a great drive. Onion Creek is a solid recommendation as well.
I would also recommend the Long Canyon route above but make sure you stop at Dead Horse Point while you're up on top of the mesa.
I have at least 30-35 days in Moab with my JT deezel on 38" tires running a...
REALLY old post. @Bobs85Reny , do you sell these kits?
I'd like the gold in black with VERY thin red accent stripes. Kind of like Mother Mopar would have put it there.
I've had an issue on my passenger side unit. I did just get a new control module yesterday. It's installed and so far, so good. Rock Slide tech support is awesome to work with. Well worth a quick peruse or even a call to Rock Slide. https://rockslideengineering.com/support/
Pending lawsuit by the BRC et all, it's pretty permanent for Hey Joe Canyon, 10 Mile Wash, Day Canyon Point, Mashed Potatoes, Ten Mile Canyon, Hell Roaring Canyon, Mineral Canyon, Hidden Canyon and almost any road that has access to a river over look.
UPLA is a land use ally if you're in the...
The closure represents 317 miles of trails. That's 28% per the Moab newspaper, The Times-Independent.

Red is the closure.
Rough area of this travel plan...
