Hey everyone, I currently own a 2017 JKUR with a stock motor, 3.73 gearing, and 35s. My jk is practically new with only 36,000 miles with a good amount of mods put into it.
I am considering trading in my jk for a Gladiator rubicon diesel mainly for the increased torque, and the fuel economy looks nice too. I also like the new interior which would be nice and I will most likely order it the way I'd like.
I am also considering keeping the jk and regearing to 4.10 or 4.54 and possibly supercharging it. Do a good amount of highway traveling at around 70-80 mph going up and down hills on the highway for about 7 hours. Obviously, with the setup I have currently, it's quite sluggish.
If anyone on here has supercharged their 3.6, how do they like it, and have you had any reliability issues?
I also do fill up the jk with all the way for these long trips. Would I lose any of that storage with the gladiator?
In the end, is it worth it to pay 60k to upgrade to the gladiator, or should I stick with what I got and make it more suitable for the highway. Also, I know a jeep with 35s isn't the best road vehicle, but I am stubborn, and it's what I like.
