Axle widths

[479Sendit]

What's with the double stabilizer setup on that front axle OP? If you're wheeling it to need 40's you might want to consider dumping that setup for a relocated single pass through stabilizer. Or just get 42's!

Not really sure. Brian Motorsports built it that way and we bought it right after the build.
It's currently on 37s

I went down the axle width rabbit hole a while back. Theres actually 4 different configurations. The three wider versions are as follows which include additional differences such as thickness and material.

• Jeep Gladiator Mojave:
  • Front axle width: 68.6 inches
  • Rear axle width: 68.6 inches
  • The Mojave has a wider axle setup to improve stability when traversing desert terrain at higher speeds, especially on sand dunes and uneven terrain.
• Jeep Gladiator Rubicon:
  • Front axle width: 67.9 inches
  • Rear axle width: 67.9 inches
  • The Rubicon has a slightly narrower axle width compared to the Mojave. This is intended to provide better maneuverability and performance in tighter, more technical off-road conditions like rock crawling and trails.
• Jeep Gladiator Max Tow:
  • Front axle width: 67.9 inches
  • Rear axle width: 69.3 inches
  • The Max Tow trim has the same front axle width as the Rubicon, but the rear axle is wider to support the increased towing capabilities. This wider rear axle provides greater strength and stability when towing heavy loads.

I think the Mojave is listed as wider because the wheels it comes with from the factory have a different offset to push them out further.

Update: got confirmation from Jeep themselves, there is only two axle lengths. 68" and 66.5" This applies to the JL Wrangler and JT gladiator.
