  1. The new Defender 110

    Does really mean something. I had a 4x4 with an independent front suspension and seriously considered putting a locker on it, and the local experts argued successfully against it. Far weaker. Who ever has exceeded the payload in a small SUV? You gonna haul 5 yards of topsoil in it?
  2. The new Defender 110

    I've personally seen lockers on an independent suspension break. Much weaker than on a solid axle. Independent suspension also = far less articulation.

  4. The new Defender 110

    Looks like it has front and rear independent suspension, which likely means no lockers. I would not have bought my Rubi Gladiator if it had not had, at least, rear lockers and solid rear axle. It also has the same for the front. It also has appx 20" wheels and skinny tires that would be...
  5. What is this for???

    No, its the Illinois liberal-policies-produced credit-rating dropomometer.
  6. Almost left us stranded

    FWIW, those batteries are $3.44 at my local Walmart. Just bought two spares to keep in the cab,

    It looks like the Quadratec Stealth winch sits a bit lower in the Quadratec steel front bumper: https://www.quadratec.com/p/quadratec/qrc-front-winch-ready-bumper-jeep-wrangler-jl-gladiator-jt/full-width-12000-lb-synthetic
  8. Almost left us stranded

    After reading this thread, I just opened up my Key Fob to see how to change the battery. FWIW, the battery in mine is a CR2450 battery.
  9. New Additional Cargo Option

    I am awaiting a full-height topper that could essentially double the weatherproof cargo capacity of the Gladiator's bed. In the meantime, for $150, I got the following, which adds about 33% to the Gladiator's cargo capacity:
  10. Tire size recalibration at dealer

    I had my local dealer install my new 35" tires and wheels, and they reprogramed the tranny ect. … odometer and speedometer both are correct.
  11. MPG and range

    So far, I haven't noticed, but I just drove it around the block to check I out. When I do some real driving, I will report back.
  12. MPG and range

    Thanks again Patriot. I just got back, and it worked. I really like being able to see what gear I'm in now. FWIW, my Gladi Rubi drives a ton better on highway mountains and hills than my old 2012 JKUR did with the 6-speed auto. I also spent a bunch of time driving in the mountains with my...
  13. MPG and range

    I only run my tank below about 3/4 when on long road trips. It keeps the air (i.e., moisture) out of the tank.
  14. Jeep gladiator roll over

    Yes, nothing is father.
