    So here’s my situation... I had some issues with my new travel trailers brakes. Finally the RV dealer is getting it fixed, but they are saying it was probably because I didn’t get the gladiator “flashed” when I installed the brake controller. The RV dealer said they always have to send Jeeps...

  13. Max tow with Fox shock take offs TO Iron rock 2” spacer lift and front rubi springs

    Just installed the iron rock 2” spacer lift on my max tow. When I installed the new spacers I decided to go ahead and throw on the front rubi take off springs.

  16. Why did everyone decide their trim level (sport vs rubicon etc)?

    Just curious why everyone decided on their trim level? I was initially going to go all out and get a LE gladiator and then decided I could get a decently decked out max tow AND a new 2019 Honda Accord sport for about the same price. I ran the numbers and it made sense to me. I definitely dig...

  20. Steering stabilizers - stock vs Fox IFP vs. Fox adjustable ATS

    Hey all just wanted to give you my experience from comparing the steering stabilizers. I initially had the stock one like us all. My steering has always been decent, not a lot of play.
