  1. Gladiator Mojave Design/selection Criteria

    I wanted 35s and to keep the unsprung weight low for suspension performance, 8th availability, and gas mileage. The stock Falken AT weigh 63.7 lbs and the stock rim 25 lbs. I decided to go with 66.29 lb Nitto Ridge Grapplers in 35 x 11.50 size and mounted to stock rims. I see 8th gear a lot on...
  2. Airlift 1000 Squeak

    Thanks for replying. I can’t hear it in the cab, but I do hear it if bounce up and down on the bumper. I’m wondering if it’s because I have silver springs.
  3. Airlift 1000 Squeak

    Installed a set of Airlift 1000 and they work great, but they squeak on compression. Is this normal? Any fixes? I have a Mojave. Thanks
  4. Are the days of Gladiators holding their values gone?

  5. 35” Tire Opinion

    Yes, stock rims, no lift. If you want something even lighter and less aggressive, try to source the Nitto Recon Grappler. That was my first choice and they showed them as available on Discount Tire's site, but not on Nitto's site. When Discount went to order them for me, they said they weren't...
  6. 35” Tire Opinion

    I really like the Nitto Ridge Grappler in 35x11.50 size. They aren’t much heavier than stock, 63.7 lbs vs 66.29 lbs. getting 17 mpg 75% city and can get 20-21 on highway.
  7. Does anyone use this setup, " Rightline Gear 4x4 Gladiator Truck Tent Truck Tent with Airbedz Mattress"

    Just got this today and set it up in my driveway in 11 minutes just taking my time. I did watch some YouTube videos beforehand, but it’s really easy and I believe I can do it a lot faster with practice. I think the fit is very good and I’m happy with the quality. Can’t wait to use it in the...
  8. What would cause this noise on Mojave

    I had to do the silicone grease trick. Did yours stay quiet? I’m in SD too.
  9. Squeaky Springs at 5 months?

    I did a silicone spray and it literally lasted hours before the squeak returned. Went to homedepot and got the grease you suggested and it’s been quiet for three days. Hopefully it’s a long term solution. Are yours still quiet?
  10. 35s and No Lift Thread

    It absolutely rides better, softer. Pretty amazing. I imagine a 12.5” width would ride even better, but these weigh almost the same as stock and the gas mileage/performance hit is marginal. Weight plays a big role in my opinion.
  11. New nitto all terrain recon grappler

    They were not in stock so I went with Ridge Grappler. Only 2.5 lbs heavier than stock Falken AT3s and just as quiet. Went with 35x11.5. Got 0% financing and they bought my old tires off me for $500. I’m happy and they do great off-road. Also, mileage seems barely affected and the ride is more...
  12. 35s and No Lift Thread

    I feel like it rides the same, but at first I thought I felt the ever slightest wandering. Either it was in my head or it was so minor I adjusted to it. I’m pretty sensitive to that sort of thing, so I wouldn’t worry. I’m happy with them.
  13. 35s and No Lift Thread

    35x11.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. 2” taller and 3lbs heavier than stock Falken ATs. Recalibrated as soon as I left Discount Tire and when I hit the freeway I easily saw 8th, but I do detect it wants to downshift more. Actual tire spec says it’s 34.76. Tazer allowed me to enter 34.77. No lift and...

    I purchased the bed rug that doesn’t connect to the tailgate, two separate pieces.
  17. First Tow with the Mojave - Report

    Thanks! It’ll be an awesome upgrade from our Jayco popup. Those Nucamps are such high quality.
  18. First Tow with the Mojave - Report

    My in-laws have the same trailer and we will be taking it off their hands when they're ready. Are you using a weight distributing hitch or anything?
