***Official Mojave Thread*** Lets talk Mojaves

[Gl4dy8r]

I have the 2" lift spacer kit from iron rock off-road, Rugged Ridge Arcus front bumper, 10k Smittybilt X20 winch. I have no noticable difference in drive or ride quality, and the added 90 lbs did not affect how much travel there is in the front suspension, not noticably anyway. Love the extra clearance and it looks great. Also have N-Fab side steps, tonneau cover, locking rear underseat boxes, grab handles, fire extinguisher, and Black Rhino cowl light brackets with cheap Amazon 4"LEDs (idc what anyone says, for $4 each they're plenty bright for me ?).

Next steps are Fab Fours JT20-Y1950-1 Rear Bumper and the right rims on 37s. And deciding if I want to get rid of the tonneau for an overland rack. It never ends...

FYI....Adding a bed cover helped about 2 MPG for me!! I added the cover for additional dry storage but the cover actually improved the gas/mileage. That was a welcome supprise considering I was getting around 13.5 (mostly city) with all the weight I added.....

Anyone else experiences a significant increase in MPG after adding a bed cover???

Cummins did a study, under 50mph tires hace the biggest effects on mpg, over 50 mph it is aerodynamics. Whilwe they were talking about trucks I guess it applies to everything. We drive a brick with big tires.

I did an antenna delete and oil change yesterday.

That antenna delete looks super clean! Was it hard to do?

Very simple. Just buy a Mojave specific badge (I got mine from allmoparparts.com) and relocate the antenna under the dash.

I followed the write up in this thread.

what would be an improvement offroad wise to the factory setup? if stock is version 1.0 what would make it 2.0?

Depends on what your goals are? What kind of off-roading?

Fox makes a 3.0 shock.

You could add Fox hydraulic bump stops to the rear axle (this requires frame cutting and welding). You could also upgrade to larger shocks. Some reinforcement of the front axle and suspension mounting points would probably be the next step after that. Going further I’d say you’d want to look at adding power, removing weight, and probably changing over to a custom long arm suspension for increased travel.

If you are looking for an orange seat towel, the one from Orange Mud goes well with the Mojave orange accents. It is available in different colors. There is a 15% off code for the 4th of July weekend - 4TH21

Well every else seemed to have a model mascot so I made one for the Mojave. I had to custom make the font myself and I figured the desert fox was a good fit. If you are interested in one let me know. I'm toying with these two versions. The left one is alot harder to make but it does pop...

That's pretty cool. I thought the original Mojave "mascot" was a gecko?
