  1. What is next for your Gladiator?

    Well so far I have 35s, a new front bumper, and a 12K Warn. Next is on board air. Then bed storage after that.
  2. Let's see those Mojave's and Mods

    Winch needs to be installed before the bumper. But that doesn't mean you couldn't install the bumper without a winch, and just take the bumper off later to install a winch, and then put the bumper back on.
  3. Let's see those Mojave's and Mods

    The only issue I had installing the bumper was trying to hold the tow hooks in place and line up the bolt holes. I had my wife help me by holding one end of the bumper. It also helped to use a punch on each side to line up the bumper and tow hooks, then just slide the punch into the hole on...
  4. Procal snap: how to lift the tabs?

    The old one with the switches looks like it was much easier to use.
  5. Let's see those Mojave's and Mods

    I just took some close up pictures. I couldn't get my camera back far enough to capture the whole bottom of the bumper, and still be at an angle that showed it the best, so there are a few pictures here. Center, plenty of clearance. passenger side Driver side Driver side, different angle...
  6. Winch alignment help

    Some winches have an offset drum, such as a Warn 9.5XP. Other winches have a centered drum, such as a Warn Zeon. You need to get a winch fairlead mount plate that matches your winch. It looks like you have them miss-matched. One is centered, and the other is offset.
  7. Less than glowing endorsement

    I've owned Jeeps for decades. I've also desert raced dirt bikes, ATVs, and UTVs for decades. So a "Desert Rated" Jeep got my attention. I owned a 2019 JL Rubicon, so I didn't need a new Jeep. Then I saw a Mojave at the local Jeep dealership, and took it for a test drive. The suspension was...
  8. Let's see those Mojave's and Mods

    Yes, the Mojave skid plate bolts right on.
  9. Let's see those Mojave's and Mods

    Just put an Arcus front bumper and a 12K Warn on my Mojave.
  10. Mojave with 1.5” all around?

    Keep in mind that the Fox 2.5 shocks on the Mojave are internal bypass shocks. That means there is a bypass zone in the mid-part of the shock travel, which is at the normal ride height, that has very little damping because there is a bypass around the piston valving. This is what gives the...
  11. Skyjacker 4.5 inch build on 40's

    40s are the new 35s. Well done.
  12. Toy/Hobby Pictures

    I've been collecting UTVs and ATVs lately. I have four of them now. For tight trails in the mountains For tight trails in the mountains, with a passenger For flat out speed, in the desert And for work around the house, and hunting
  13. So, what is everybody towing?

    Here is what I tow with my JT. I towed the Fast Camel out to the desert for a fast camel cruise today, and had a great time.
  14. Why did you/didn’t you lift your JT?

    I will find out on Monday. Worst case scenario I might have to trim a half inch off the front edge of the skid plate to get it to slip up in behind the Arcus bumper.
  15. Why did you/didn’t you lift your JT?

    I've been Jeeping for 46 years now, and I have spent several decades driving lifted and highly modified Jeeps. I gradually came around to thinking that less mods left you with a better Jeep that was more reliable and better driving. But it still needs to have enough clearance to perform well...
  16. How I justified buying my Gladiator. How about you?

    For the past 40 years I have changed back and forth between a Jeep and a small 4x4 pickup for off road use. I will own a Jeep for a few years, and then decide it is too small, and I can't carry anything with me. So I change to a 4x4 pickup truck, such as an S-10 Chevy, or lately the ZR2 Chevy...
  17. Tire Feedback

    In the last decade I have had best results with Falken Wildpeak MT = Toyo Open Country MT > BFG KM2 >BFG KM3 > anything Goodyear.
  18. Goodyear getting involved in politcs apparently

    Doesn't look like I'll be buying any Goodyear tires.
  19. Mojave owners: any issues so far?

    We explored nearly 100 miles of dirt roads and two track trails in the desert last weekend. My wife commented that I was driving a lot faster than with other Jeeps, but that it felt really smooth despite the speed. And this was with 36 psi in the tires, we had not even aired down. My wife...
  20. Mojave owners: any issues so far?

    No problems with mine. Best suspension of any Jeep I've owned, ... which goes back 46 years.
