Staying WELL within my tow capacity. In fact it its the only thing I have towed that has no notable impact on the fuel economy.

I have never tried it in the mid position. You might be able to get it to work with some trial and error, assuming there is enough adjustment. It has a little alignment jig that lines it up in the full down position that I am pretty sure wont work in the mid position, so it will be guessing on...

You run your tires at 45 psi?

Just add this Jeep accessory package.

That's the info for a 6 speed Manual. A stock Auto with the factory tow package is 6000.

Does it say anywhere if this is a RWD or FWD platform? I am guessing FWD like the Maverick and Santacruz.

I dont know the current environment, but when I was deciding there were significant discounts available on my 80th and none on a Mojave (or Rubicon). So the real world cost delta was pretty significant, over $12K if I recall for a like optioned truck.

Yup, I was very similar. I was leaning to the Willys when I was first looking into these, but found the 80th was a better fit for me. I was NOT a fan of those mud tires after getting the opportunity to test drive one, and I did not want to have to replace tires. I will say I would have...

We have had a few threads on this, but sadly no one makes one. https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/soft-top-canopy-boot.67551/#post-1108894 FWIW I contacted Jtops about using one of their wrangler boots and Bestop about the possibility of using their softtopper boot. They both did...

Yup that's another High Altitude thing that's been around for a few years.

I assume the new side frames were because of the bolted cable end vs the Z-clip design, no?. Bigger hole, no slot on the back. different location, or is it the same? Did they send any instructions on how to install the new cable? If so, can you post them? I never could figure out why they...

So Bestop sent you a kit of parts and you re-strung the cable(s) through your top?

Very cool, they have developed a hard top that will leak in 3 places instead of just 1. :like:

Yea, I have seen different definitions from different manufactures, but jeep is pretty straight forward on how they have defined it. Isn't " it will tell me if it's too much frontage " any different than saying the same with weight?

Since everyone like to talk about weights, what about the frontal area limits called out? Our trucks have a max of 55 sq ft (mine only 40 sq ft). The Manual calls out. Frontal Area The frontal area is the maximum height multiplied by the maximum width of the front of a trailer. So for an 8'...

With a proper rated hitch you are good to 6K.

All Gladiators without tow packages are sold with a bumper hitch that is only rated at 3500. So they are responsible if someone trys to tow 6K with it and they have sold a compromised vehicle?

Do you have a manual or automatic Mojave? The Curt is rated at 500/5000. I believe the Manual Mojave is rated at 450/4500, the Auto @ 600/6000. FWIW My truck is rated at 450/4500, no tow package, I added the Curt. Now if you think you will ever use a weight distribution hitch, the Curt is NOT...

I see two choices. 1) Dig into removals and try to see what failed as far as the cylinder retainer. Actually it might not be as internal as I was first thinking, see video around 5:42 on retaining screw. 2) Take it to a lock smith. It may not be that expensive of a fix, even if it is and you...

Swapping twice a year, no brainer. I bitch a bit having to pull the Sunrider off to get the hard top off my JL, but its really not that much more time/effort than pulling the freedom panels, maybe 10 mins more. Yup storing it would be the bigger challenge. I just throw it up on to the hard top...
