  1. Why did you/didn’t you lift your JT?

    Its a personal thing. Mostly from looking at block lift kits in the 80s. :CWL: But a spacer kit does have compromises. You are getting the lift, and the associated clearance for tires while keeping the stock ride etc... but you will miss out on added articulation and benefits of a taller...
  2. Why did you/didn’t you lift your JT?

    The Mojave has 2.5" remote res shocks compared to the monotube(?) shocks on the Mopar lift and Rubicon. It also has hydraulic bump stops and some taller springs with unique spring rates. I don't generally love OEM suspensions because they are a compromise but I am seriously digging the Mojave...
  3. Why did you/didn’t you lift your JT?

    I have a Mojave and don't want to give up the sweet suspension. After some high speed desert blasts, I feel like the engineers came up with a fantastic product that works out of the box with the stock tire/wheel size and weight. I don't really trust spacer lifts so I am stuck till I can get...
  4. Proper order of mods?

    Lift and tires for quality stuff is going to be over $5k.
  5. Track Bar Didn't Work

    I don't see a lot of art in them. Pretty much just old school suspension bits with modern manufacturing techniques.
  6. Has anyone tried to use the Rubicon switches to control ARB lockers?

    My friend had that setup on his JKR. He had a shop do the work and they were proud of themselves for figuring it out. They wouldn't give me a tutorial on how, and I didn't bother to look around to see. So yes it can be done. I don't know how to pull it off.
  7. Swap Hoods? Mojave Hood vs Rubicon hood vs Overland Hood

    You can see in this comparison. The area in front of the windshield hinge on the Mojave is flat going forward. On the Sport/Overland/Rubi it starts a bit lower and slopes downward going forward. Then on the side cowl piece in front of the a-pillar, again it is almost flat coming forward from...
  8. Let's see those Mojave's and Mods

    This tire is for sure on my short list. (Wish someone made a 37x11.50r17) Do you have pics down the side from the front and/or back?
  9. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Installed Kikbax mirrors. Totally satisfied with these. Pop right on, solid, very little mirror vibration. Wife and I love the pegs for hanging a leg out the “door”.
  10. Re-gear, Supercharge or both??

    I loved 4.88s and 37s in my JKU. If I was going to wheel, I would have gone to 5.13 or 5.38. But as a daily driver, I kind of feel like the 4.88s were the sweet spot. That was never towing, just mostly daily driving and the weekend warrior wheeling. With the 8spd, I think you would be...
  11. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Made a contraption to hold the roof in the little bump out corner of my garage. I built a shelf out of a 1x4 and mounted it a few inches away from the wall. I made it with two pins that stick up through the board to catch the middle two bolt holes in the back edge of the roof and also wrapped...
  12. Mojave owners: any issues so far?

    The suspension is fantastic. Especially on rough dirt roads or two-track. It just blasts over things that would upset the chassis of my JK. Even unprompted my wife said, "You can just feel this thing get into its groove when you get up to speed, it just flies over the big bumps like they...
  13. Mojave owners: any issues so far?

    Key fob is too damn big. I have an appointment with my dealer on Thursday to see if they can fix it.
  14. Teraflex Leveled Mojave & Rubicon JT pics

    How did it do wheeling? Any rub issues?
  15. Doors off/doors on

    I need to look again but I don't think the nuts are part of the bearing surface. I know on my JK I never noticed any signs of rotational wear on them. They make replaceable Delrin sleeves for the inside of the hinge and I don't think they are long enough to make contact with the nut at the...
  16. Gladiator vs Moab

    That departure angle is a bitch...
  17. ***Official Mojave Thread*** Lets talk Mojaves

    Do you have any pics that help explain?
  18. ***Official Mojave Thread*** Lets talk Mojaves

    No lift or spacers? Looks fantastic. Does it rub anywhere? Have you flexed it at all to tell? I am thinking about doing this in the spring with the AAL light brace and inner fender delete kit. Also, any head on view pics?
