Yeah, the gold zinc is definitely a matter of personal taste. That said, it’s pretty easy to hit it with a bit of paint, and it’s the perfect prep surface for it. I painted the new springs, but liked the gold zinc for the rest of the hardware. Whatever suits you, gold or painted, you’ll...

It works out just fine. The MetalCloak kit comes with both upper and lower shock relocation brackets for the front. However, it does NOT reorient the rear shocks. You get new rear springs, rear track bar, rear upper and lower control arms, and sway bar links. However, due to the simpler geometry...

I did replace the driveshaft. It wasn't difficult, it just took a bit of extra elbow grease. If you're running smaller tires (smaller than 37's) you can do the 2.5" GameChanger. It's not as tall. You get all the same control arm and track bar hardware, just different springs. I installed the...

I recommend looking at the MetalCloak 3.5" GameChanger Suspension lift for the Mojave. This is the lift I just finished installing on my Gladiator Mojave last weekend. You can see the build on my DirtGadgets twitter account. There aren't great instructions, but if you're comfortable working...

Yeah, I have a stock 2020 Mojave. I live in Nebraska where there's a fair bit of ice/snow in the winter. It's nice having 4WD and a rear locker when the weather is bad. A rear locker, even with 4wd, combined with some smart driving is really all that needed to get out of most stuck situations...

The Torsen is complete new to me (as are many off-roading related topics). I just watched a video on the mechanics of how a Torsen works. If a Torsen is so automatically responsive, why do people use lockers at all? There must be some drawback that is being lost on me.

Nice! Thanks for pointing out this option. I love the idea of having a mechanical locker... no air or vulnerable electronics.

I considered buying take-offs, and I agree it would probably be easier. However, I want to retain the Mojave front axle, mainly due to the cast iron knuckles. I'm also trussing the stock axles and re-gearing, as I'm moving to 37" tires. I think it would be straightforward to add the electronic...

I drive a 2020 Jeep Gladiator Mojave. I'm investigating what is required to add a Spicer Dana 44 E-Locker to the front axel, essentially the same system the Gladiator Rubicon employs. In an ideal world I would like to enable locking/unlocking the front locker through the OEM controls. Below is...

Does anyone know of someone who has added the Rubicon, Spicer Dana 44 E-Locker to the front axel on the Mojave? I'm planning to do this, mainly as a learning exercise/experiment. I've done some poking around the internet and this is the parts list I've come up with. Does this list covers...

IMO, Car and Driver's review misses the forest for the trees. I don't think it's a stretch to expect a review to align with the intended purpose a manufacturer has for their vehicles. Yeah, the Jeep Gladiator Mojave is a truck, it's a very capable truck, but it's also a truck designed for a.)...

37" Tires fit with this kit. Click the Tires & Wheels tab. I'm taking a serious look at this kit. Would happily be a guinea pig to install this kit if Fabtech was interested in furnishing one to me. Would post pics, videos, etc. so the community can see it. :)

I picked up my Gladiator from the dealership a couple hours ago and took it for a good drive. I did some interstate driving to get a feel at high-speeds and some city driving to get a feel for stop/go, round-abouts, and lower speeds. Wow, what a difference the new steering gear made! It handles...

I bought my 2020 Gladiator Mojave at the beginning of September. Noticed the sloppy steering right away... my previous truck was a leased 2019 Tacoma TRD Off-Road and slop in the steering was completely a non-issue. The steering in this Gladiator was more than loose, it was drifting so badly I...
