As a matter of fact, I have about 3,000 miles now with the ProPride. I traded the 23’ GT for a 27’ GT that I’m towing with a ‘25 RAM 1500. I’ve railed against Hensley and ProPride for over 20 years as being too heavy and expensive, but I am now a believer. I couldn’t get the Blue Ox dialed in...

Somebody screwed up in the data entry at your loan place, and your insurance company took it off the loan documents. It's a Sport.

I dunno... I towed my (about 6k lbs loaded) '20 Airstream Globetrotter 23' FBQ over the 9500' La Veta Pass in Colorado without any issues at all in my '22 Overland with the Pentastar 3.6. Made about 4,000 miles on that trip from Iowa to New Mexico and back. ON EDIT: I traded the 23'...

Yes, some of them are "odd" indeed... particularly the "bunkhouse" and 30' front bedroom/rear bath models. Some of the shorter single axle trailers are a little different too. The 23' however is laid out and appointed well. Unfortunately, MINE suffered a structural failure on the way home from...

Both the "click" and the "tapping." My dealership has very competent mechanics, one of whom I've known for over twenty years now and they've told me they're normal engine sounds coming from the 3.6.

I'm a little late to the party, but I bought a '16 JKUR new with a six-speed stick. I had it eight years and was never in the shop for an issue with the Pentastar 3.6 the whole eight years. I bought my '22 Gladiator Overland new this March. I've got almost 10k miles on it now, 5,000 of that...

Both my '16 JKUR and my '22 Gladiator overland made/make a similar noise. I had my Wrangler for eight years. Whatever it is, it seems to be "normal." A lot of the 3.6s (if not all) have that click.

I am, but I'm seldom on the forums any longer. I haven't had a fiberglass trailer in a number of years.

Ok, I've gotta chime in here. I've towed travel trailers since 1980 from a Scamp 13 behind an '81 Jeep Scrambler, to a Scamp 16 behind a Honda Element to a 34' Airstream tri-axle behind a Ford Excursion. I'm curerently towing a 5400lb 23' Airstream Globetrotter FBQ behind my '22 Gladiator...

I was a moderator on Fiberglass Forums for several years in the early days.

Gorgeous truck... Love the GT! I had a '61 Bambi for several years, and started out with a '70 Safari Special 23' in 1987. You have found THE magic way to travel! The trailer we have now is a 23FB wearing Globetrotter trim. It still confuses me 'cause when I think of a GT, I think of yours.

You need both a controller and WDH. I have the FCA factory controller installed in mine. It's amazing. As I've not used any of the others with a Gladiator I can't speak to them first hand, but there are a number of threads about them. With that size trailer, I'd highly recommend an...

I just towed this over La Veta Pass in Colorado (9430 feet elevation) without issue with my '22 Overland. I think folks' towing concerns are over-blown.

I have towed a wide range of travel trailers since 1980 and done the extremes from a 1,000lb Scamp 13 with a Jeep CJ-8 to a 9,000 lb 34' Airstream tri-axle, two-door with a Y2K Excursion. Towing a 7,000 lb anything safely with a Gladitor IS out of the question. You have to remember that these...

The reason everything is getting shaken up inside is because the rubber in the torsion axle is shot. Once you replace the Dexter torsion axle it'll ride quite smoothly. With an axle that is shot, it has no suspension at all, and every bump slams the frame against the axle. Torsion axles...

At Hasty, CO

I had a ‘92 Ford Aerostar as a work van for a number of years. It was a stock 2WD auto with stock M+S tires. I ran a rural NoCal county Sheriff’s crime scene unit in a mountainous county. I was regularly out on trails normally thought of as 4WD. Forest Service and fire roads. Anyway I was...

Replace the Dexter torsion axle. You won’t be happy with a Scamp on leaf springs. Even with shocks it’ll bounce like a red rubber ball.

I have them on my '22 Overland. I don't believe that there were any changes in the mirror housing.

Nope. They're the most stable towing mirrors I've ever used. Other than the clips on the housing of the Jeep mirror, you'd be hard pressed to tell they're not factory.
