I picked up my Mojave yesterday!
PXL_20201112_155422475.MP.jpg
Other than the tires (Mine came with MT) that looks identical to mine ... I love the look of it !!!

I actually like the simple rims (others can flame me I dont care !!!). The truck looks basic and more industrial to me ... Very nice ...

Also love the contrasting black wheel well covers as opposed to color matched ones ...

You are gonna love it ...

Firstly STOP WITH THE 35 INCH TIRE POSTS !!! My wallet cannot handle it and my wife is mad at you and she does not even know who you all are ..... Just stop ... Please ...

Ok, now onto spending money ....

My only worry with 35 inch tires is gearing ... I already pop back and forth between 7th and 8th on the highway even with modest inclines ...

Can someone with a Mojave and 4.10 gearing help me here ? How different does the truck behave going from 33's to 35's ? Is she sluggish ? Does it stay in 7th on the highway at 70 ?

Some opinions are greatly appreciated ...

LOL! Yeah, my wife gave me the evil eye when I told her I was buying a new Jeep. She knew what was coming....as far as the ride on 35s, its all good! City driving was fine, light to light she has plenty of get up and go. No noticeable difference in performance 33s vs 35s. Highway was the same no issues at all, but for the sake of transparency I most of my driving is flat highway and no towing.

Here are a few pics of her getting delivered. I had the dealer install Nitto Ridge Grapplers 35x12.5 on stock rims. I'm picking up a fifth stock rim for my spare (also a 35) and I'm having a JCR rear bumper and tire carrier installed.

The 2020 model year does not have this feature, only the 2021 model year. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Sorry for the inconvenience? Is that really the answer? Hey, you just paid 60 grand for a vehicle based upon the reported features of said vehicle, one of which you can't do but we aren't really putting that out there, but sorry for the inconvenience?

If it can be changed with the tazer is Jeep going to void my warranty?

If someone has done it with the tazer, whats the setting?

If someone has done it with the tazer, whats the setting? : It is clearly marked in the TAZER documentation that you can download from their website.



Your dealing with a massive corporation. Jeep Cares should really be called "People who work for Jeep that will try to help until corporate ties their hands and they are forced to hang you out to dry"

I love the wheels as well. No plans to change them. That was the deciding factor for me to move up to the Mojave. I debated max tow, but I knew that it would immediately have to have wheels, tires, and lift, which is 4k minimum. The Mojave is lightly optioned so the price was very comparable.

I traded from a Ram 1500 and was very nervous about loosing space and capability. I work out of my truck everyday. I did not make the wrong decision, it an incredible truck!

I'm debating 34X11.5 vs 35 12.5s for the Mojave.

For everyone with 35s, how the rub at full articulation with the swaybar disconnected? I know its only an inch but I'm wondering if the 34 might be a little better in this area.

I’m with you about the cost and wife beating me up about my lego toy ( what she calls it when not referring to it as a tin can - jealous). 2021 Mojave with 35s no lift. Transferred from my 2019 JL Rubicon. I ordered the cheap rims from factory order and was pleasantly surprised that they weren’t that bad.

This video might help a bit for perspective. And, I have 35" Mickey Thompson BAJA MP3s on my Mojave. They run very true to size and I have no issues at all.

I did about 35 miles of dirt trails today in my Mojave, all of it with the front swaybar disconnected. Some sections were the most difficult I have done yet. My 35" tires did not rub one time, and suspension is still stock. 35s don't rub on a stock Mojave.

Here is a picture from today. We found this old cabin at the base of the Pine Valley Mountains, southern Utah.

The Mojave Sway Bar can disconnect manually. Just not electronically like the Rubicon.
