  1. Are 35" tires the best for the Gladiator?

    You're going to hear a lot of different views. I run 37" Yokohama Geolander X-MT's on stock 3.73 gears. I HATE highways so I see no problem with my current setup. It has plenty of get up and go. I did need the flashcal superchips for my shift points and speedo. I run just an AEV 2" spacer kit...
  2. Trying to sort out my next set of tire and wheels on my Mojave.

    Toyos make some great tires, nice they're a little narrower too.
  3. Trying to sort out my next set of tire and wheels on my Mojave.

    38.. Are there a lot of brands making 38's now? I love my 37's but....
  4. Trying to sort out my next set of tire and wheels on my Mojave.

    Darn autocorrect, I meant Rode like rocks. Uncomfortable road ride, very stiff tire. You've had good look with remolds? I've heard horror stories especially from frequent highway drivers.
  5. Trying to sort out my next set of tire and wheels on my Mojave.

    Caked on mess is why I don't like AT's. They look pretty good, almost reminds me of my Nitto Trail Grapplers. Only problem is my Nittos road like rocks, horrible daily driver tire. Tough to find a good balance, I have it now with my X-MT'S but it took 3 tries before I found it.
  6. Trying to sort out my next set of tire and wheels on my Mojave.

    My vote is go real aggressive and get some amazing MT's. Like Yokohama Geolander X-MT's. But if you have to go AT's, Nittos, Mickeys and Falken do AT's most aggressive looking. The Mickeys would be my pick if I didn't love my X-MT'S
  7. Went for 4 Tires - Got told these issues, pricing right?

    It helps, I even got my wife and daughter doing their own labor 😎. #Proud guy moment
  8. would you let your 18 year old have a Jeep

    This is my daughters first vehicle, wouldn't have it any other way.
  9. Went for 4 Tires - Got told these issues, pricing right?

    WOW....So it looks like they're saying, Tie Rod, Track bar, and front shock. This sounds extremely high in my opinion. All of these things are completely replaceable by someone with some patience and eagerness to learn. I don't want to assume you enjoy working on your Jeep like I do, but you can...
  10. AEV Spacer lift

    It was a pretty easy install. If I did it again I'd just buy the longer billstein shocks and not bothered with the shock extensions. I ended finding some open box billsteins for almost nothing on extreme terrain. Good luck!
  11. AEV Spacer lift

    Yeah, I'm on 37's because of an amazing deal and then a tire sponsorship. I'm on year five, my first step was 34's. I think it actually rides better now with the 37's. But yeah no rush, you go too fast and you'll either go broke or get bored. You on Instagram? I'll give you a follow. ✌🏻
  12. AEV Spacer lift

    Thank you. I'm getting by just fine with just a flashcal superchips for shift points and speedo. It's no Porsche, or a highway jeep. But it's my daily and off-roads perfectly fine. I do not beat on it though. I send it with love ☺️. Gears might be next year, I dislike replacing factory parts...
  13. AEV Spacer lift

    It leaves the factory rake. Here's mine with 37's. Billstein shocks
  14. spray in LineX bedliner, yay or nay?

    I have the factory "option" spray in bed liner. The dealers in my area don't receive it from the manufacturer with the liner, around here they send the vehicle out to get the option sprayed in. Long story short, I've been very happy with it. Now 5 years later it looks pretty great and I have not...
  15. Gladiators show me your wheels !

    37x12.5r17 on 17x9.5 black rhino wheels. 18mm offset.
  16. Help diagnosing sound in turn

    I also had the noise around 70k miles on my gladiator willys sport and on my wife's Wrangler willys. It does appear it is an issue with the limited slip diff. Changed the fluid on my gladiator and it almost completely resolved it. My wife Wrangler is about 50% better but we changed the pinion...
  17. What aftermarket fender liners to get?

    I really love my combat off-road ones. Not the cheapest but the fit and finish are top notch. I also love that they are aluminum under the black finish. All my others have rusted out before.
  18. 2.5” lift input

    I'm running a AEV 2" spacer lift with those billsteins on 37"x12.5 r17. I'd say try it then go regear if you miss the acceleration. I definitely needed my superchips flashcal+ to recalibrate the speedo because the shift points were trash with the 37's. I will say the billsteins were quite an...
  19. What did you do with your spare?

    My very first off-road trip with my gladiator resulted in multiple spare tire drags on rocks. NH is the granite state after all. So one of my first mods was a rugged ridge spare relocation to the bed. I like it a lot. Here's my pics.
  20. Anybody have pics of Sport gladiators on 35s with just a leveling kit? Thanks

    Here you go, first pic is 34" on teraflex leveling kit. Second is 37" on teraflex leveling kit. Sorry can't seem to find my 35" winter tire pics. I've had fun trying to get high without throwing away a lot of perfectly good stock parts.
