MOJAVE Edition Gladiator JT Club

Is that the factory Skid and did you have to trim it at all with that bumper? That is one of 2 bumpers I'm looking at.

Zero trimming. Bolted right up.

Sweet looking rig! Where did you get the dual led mounts for the hood/ A pillar? Thanks!

Those are the dual version of the GoRhino cowl brackets I have on my Mojave. GoRhino doesn't list them as compatiable but they do work if you use an M6 80mm screw. Ya need the longer screw due to the thicker hood on the Mojave.

Not sure if this helps...

Rear

I’m jealous. I have a sport with a 2 1/2” RC lift and mine sits at 39” ground to lower lip of the fender. I know we have different fenders but man. No lift on stock tires is taller. That’s wild. May need to trade mine in.

Awesome! Thank you so much for this!

First Post on the Forum.

I've loved my '16 JK since bringing it home as my first ever new vehicle purchase, but don't think I smiled as much then as I am now with my new Mojave Gladiator in Hydro Blue!

Cousins.

So far I love everything about the Gladiator. Took it out for a drive along the farm trails and I couldn't be happier with the ride. I'm sure modifications will start before too long. I'll keep it simple to start with some new floor mats.

Well, ol Girl got some new shoes and socks today. Big thanks to @Discount Tire and Marcos R. In LaPorte,TX for the fast and professional service as always.

Per chance my friend can you measure from the ground to the lower lip on the front fender please? I would like to know the height gained. Stock is 40”.

Will do when I get home. I think it was a tad over 43”, but I will put a tape on it again this evening and shoot you some pics.

Guess I was wrong, maybe stock was 38” with the stock AT’s on it.

Thank you sir, This is good stuff. I was looking at differences between my Sport Gladiator with a lift and a stock Mojave. Mine with a 2 1/2' lift measures 39" to the lower lip. crazy. On the window sticker it says the Mojave has Fox 2.5 performance internal bypass shocks. I wonder if this is equivalent to a 2 1/2" lift factory or similar.

The 2.5” on the Fox shocks is the shock body diameter. The Mojave does sit 1" higher in the from than the Rubicon (and other JTs), but it also has the high clearance flares like the Rubicon, vs the low flares on your Sport.

To add a data point to your previous question, my flare lip was exactly 40" from the ground with the stock 33" Wildpeak A/T. I swapped to a 35" Wildpeak A/T and it now sits at exactly 41".

I put my Mojave to work last week, and completed the western loop of the Trans America Trail. Over 2400 miles total, and over 2000 miles off road. I'm real happy with the way the Mojave worked. Here are a few pictures from along the way.

Death Canyon, UT

Devils Playground, northwest UT

Sawtooth Mountains, Idaho

Craters of the Moon National Preserve, Idaho

Teton Mountains, Wyoming

What front bumper is that?

Havent seen any Mojaves with the sway bar disconnect. Are they not capable or is it just not a good idea?

The power swaybar disconnect only comes on the Rubicon. As for manual disconnecting, there are a few members with them installed, but the Mojave already has the softest sway bars of any JT and thus doesn’t have as much need for them. A stock Mojave will put flex a stock Rubicon with the sway bar connected.

I will eventually be adding some manual disconnects to mine since they’re cheap and I’d rather have it and not need it than the other way around.
