I have been wondering what the story is on this one. I saw it pop up on another web page about a week ago but no explanation on it. This Gladiator needs more crap attached to it.
I have done Holy Cross in my TJ. 33s, lockers, 3” of lift, winch , if that helps. A friend was with me in his CJ 7, set up the same as me. There are winch anchors at French Creek to hook your winch to. I would recommend, for a Gladiator, for a couple of spots, a winch on at least one vehicle...
