Wish I could have gone to the ign hot from the aux switches but it just wouldn't work.
Ya it's all compromises. I went max tow over Rubi or a diesel for payload and towing; then spent twice the delta in price on mods :LOL: :headbang: it's the game we play.

see my thread on the OBI 13 similar type trailer mines a pop-up yours is hard side, but a few comments.
Yours is gonna be a lot like the OBI 15 and other similar type of off road trailers. They are tongue light, which means they tow poorly generally over 60 miles an hour if you’re running them...

Backwards Bill, Jacks Traxs and Fins n Things.
in a lot of ways, each trail was different but each one was a lot of fun and challenging in its own way.

I would in all honesty stop with all the bits and pieces and get the AEV Overland 2.5" with the 5100 series shocks.
You can also look at the Clayton Overland kit.
Both are set up to give you equal or "better" payload that stock.
sorry, Boomer, that is a pretty large and heavy trailer for a gladiator. 100% empty no propane no water no food no gear. You’re on the upper end of all the gladiator specifications, especially in your case with your actual limits.. I would hazard to guess even hooked up that would actually be...
