As you said they do count towards the GVWR which means a larger heavier tire or heavier wheels reduces what payload I can carry because it moves the vehicle closer to the GVWR. A gladiator has 6250 total GVWR. I currently have about 1500 payload. IE if I start with 120 pounds of tires which is...
yeah, trying not to do that. Do you think I could get a better look with keeping the 31 size and getting a more aggressive tire and changing the offset in a similar weight wheel? Since the wide axles from the max tow that might help?
I got my Sport S Max tow because we are going to tow, wanted a mid sized truck, needed the best payload and wanted to be able to tow off the beaten path and well love Jeeps!!! The Max Tow fit the bill.
Every single Gladiator has its inherent purpose and then we mod them the way we want. That is...
I have searched around and found Rubicon information, but what are the wheel specs for the Sport S Max Tow? I am new to wheel and tire changes and looking to go to 33s but want a little better stance.
Without any lift or spacers and going only to a 33, what would y’all recommend for the wheel...
Go with the Curt. look at this video. Etrailer walks through an entire install of the Curt into the Gladiator without touching the 12v outlet and keeping it on the same panel as the 12v, just on the other side. Very easy to do and he gives all the part numbers of what you need...
It is not be the miles, it is just be that is the miles you are at when the summer heat kicks in. It has been up to 108 F here in the last week in Vegas and mine does not kick on all the time now in order to keep AC working at top level while stopped. I am at 1700 miles. My BMW was same way...
Heard it might be a very very very long time for North Fork Highway. It is completely destroyed in many locations. Bet the animals will reclaim some of that.
Here is mine from @pixeldecals. Bronze with Matte Black. Of course with that on the back, if I go too slow going up a steep grade I am going to have to do a Flintstone feet thing to speed up so as not to embarrass myself!!! :LOL: We bought ours for towing a trailer around 5K AND have a Jeep all...
These are mine. Easy install and nice look. Says it works for willy’s. They have star and skull on them. Love that! Also I attached install video. He made it so simple. I did it in like 5 minutes. And you are not going to spend a lot of $$. They have been great since I installed them a few...
Doesn’t the overland stock (auto) come with only 1125 payload without any options added? What is your door sticker payload? 1000 or less? I would think that you plus those 35 cases put your O’land a few hundred pound over your payload capacity which of course explains the 3 inch drop.
Just like a jeep. Your actual curb weight (dry weight) is dependent on the options you put on. A manufacturer curb weight (dry weight) is the stock no option. That is why cars and RVs have stickers. A RV will arrive with a sticker that has the true or close to true cargo carrying capacity of...
I have a Sport S Max tow and got if for the payload and towing. I do drive it every single day and have no complaints. I have all the safety packages so I set the ACC and it is awesome keeping the distances. Also the blind spot is great! I get about 20 mpg.
However the overland is the more...
Consumer reports once listed the FJ Cruiser as one of the 10 worst cars….as I am a 11 year owner of that “worst car” which has been reliable, is fun and is passing 100K miles and is now worth more than we paid for it….I thumb my nose at Consumer Reports…again!
NHTSA Opens Investigation Into Ford Bronco Over Catastrophic Engine Failures

I know what you are talking about. I bought my gladiator with a 2017 BMW trade in and that BMW changed looks every single year etc. 5 years in and I wanted the updated BMW.
Jeeps are different. With the current interior I could see a software update and maybe wireless carplay coming at some...

I bought the 8/125 from Tom on the day I signed the papers for my JT. My dealer finance looked up the price he gave me and said no way they could even match it and to go with Tom. Took care of everything and then all the papers arrived electronically same day and hard copy within the week.
