  1. First trip towing 4k trailer with Mojave

    The 19 FD is a very roomy TT inside while having a modest exterior width, length and height. A 7' width catches less air helping to reduce fuel consumption. I chose this trailer/Gladiator combination to get into remote areas where there are fewer campers and more wilderness. Off road I lower...
  2. First trip towing 4k trailer with Mojave

    1st trip towing my new Flagstaff E-Pro 19 FD up and down Arizona mountains went better than expected. I started on Az state route 260, then SR87 to SR188 from Show Low, elevation 6735', to Roosevelt Lake, elevation 2500' and 145 miles distant. Two major grades of 6 to 7% enroute and climbed to...
  3. Should I go to 4.56 gears for towing?

    I have a Mohave (410 gears) with the stock 33'' tires the 8speed tranny. I am towing a 20' E Pro Flagstaff trailer weighing 4k loaded and with the truck loaded the rig weighs in just over 10k. I use the rig to go deep into the Arizona mountains and deserts on remote 2 track roads and have no...
  4. Diff oil

    Just a note on full syn, it runs hotter than dyno.
  5. What is causing shorter battery life?

    Parasitic draw on the Gladiator is very high and high draw kills batteries if not driven every day or put on a trickle charger. Also, AGM batteries suffer damage if voltage stays in the low 12 volt range for extended periods. Heat is the other big destroyer of batteries. When I lived in...
  6. Question: Aluminum Boat Trailer (4500 lbs loaded) Can’t Take Weight Distribution Hitch (WDH)

    My Mohave sagged too much with 450# on the tongue and Airlift bags were the answer. No need for sway control and follow trailer manufacturers warning on WDH.
  7. Best Trickle Charger for Mojave/Gladiator with ESS and Dual battery system?

    I am using NOCO 1 set on AGM. I use it every day and it keeps voltage near 13. Been using it for two months now and so far, so good.
  8. Reset the computers

    On a cold start, first put the tranny in neutral until the idle rpms drop. No clunks when I do this.
  9. ARE camper shell lack of QC- - update!

    Corporations with a lot of capital are buying up individual manufacturers in a given segment of market. This creates a kind of monopoly control in the given segment. This is happening with Real Truck buying up everything in the offroad and truck equipment arena. They then reduce production costs...
  10. Going From a 2020 Rubicon -> 2024 Mojave

    What is the differential shock, never knew this existed.
  11. Going From a 2020 Rubicon -> 2024 Mojave

    Curious, are you towing with your Mohave? I had to install Airlift 1000 bags on my Mohave because the rear sagged so much with a 2000# trailer my headlights were blinding oncoming traffic. The bags solved the issue. I am looking for a single axle TT, 3500# max and would like to hear from Mohave...
  12. Best Tire Pressure for Comfort/Wear/Mileage for Stock 33" A/T Tires

    For me 38 cold highway and 25 cold on FS roads. Low pressure much better on dirt roads.
  13. Tariffs & new tires, total US manufactured tires.

    I was not trying to create an issue or start a political argument I just thought I would defuse the fear of price increases that may likely never happen. I guess that I may not be as paranoid as I should be.
  14. Looking for proper RPM at 65 with 34.5” tires, gas, 8 speed

    The 8 speed ZF has 2 over drives, 7th and 8th gears. Off hand, I cannot recall the exact ratios but the rpms will be lower than the chart that is giving a 1 to 1 ratio.
  15. Tariffs & new tires, total US manufactured tires.

    Trump is working to get zero tariff deals with many nations. Asian nation will be hit the hardest so they will likely deal with Trump asap. He will not give in to China and will play hardball with Europe. I think prices on many things will soon return to pre-tariff rates. Interesting times we...
  16. Jeep Mojave with out max Tow, Airstream 16ft

    Air lift 1000 bags ($120) and a weight distributing hitch and you are good to go.
  17. 1.5 or 2.5 spacer lift Just wanting to level it any suggestions

    When towing my Mojave sags with only 300lbs on the hitch to where my low beams cause oncoming drivers to flash me. I installed Air lift 1000 bags, and they allow me to keep my soft ride when not towing and bring the truck to level with 15 psi in them when towing. The bags give me flexibility at...
  18. ARE camper shell lack of QC- - update!

    550lbs is not correct by a bunch. The ARE Gladiator camper is posted at 160 to 170lbs and varies depending on options. My Gladiator is the 2nd ARE cap I have had and both are excellent.
  19. ARE camper shell lack of QC- - update!

    Real Truck is buying many after-market manufacturers of truck accessories. The Netherland based corporation goes into cost cutting measures to increase profits. I bought one for my Ram in 2018 and one for my Gladiator 4 months ago. Fit and finish is not as good on the new one. I am not a fan of...
