What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

[Artsifrtsi]

Replaced my hood Overland stickers, and replaced the fender vent stickers with the 10 YO boy approved stickers…

But don't you need to also dish out more money for a regear to go 37s over 35s?

I ran the factory 4.10 with 35s for about 2 years.Felt fine. Jumped up to 37s and it still felt fine.

Regeared to 5.13 and didn’t really notice much of a difference.

The 8 speed is a great transmission.

Nice. From what I have read it seems like with 37's and 4.10s that its hard to get the truck to go into 7th or 8th gear and that mileage gets pretty terrible without a regear.

Pretty true. You’d get away with it as a low altitude flat land pavement princess, but that’s about it.

I ran 35s for quite a while on flatland and off-road a bunch. Zero problems there.

I made the jump to 37s and 5.13s very close together, so I don’t have a whole ton of data to tell you how different it felt across the different types of driving modes.

In my opinion, you can run 30 for quite a while on factory 4.10 while you save up to rear and still be pretty happy.


As far as mileage, mileage, my truck has always been terrible. 12 to 13 miles to the gallon. I noticed exactly 0 difference in mileage when I went to different gears. I have changed my jeep settings to the proper gear ratio and measured tire size via JScan and still no real difference. If I’m super lucky on really flat ground with no wind, I might see 15 miles to the gallon.

Full body clear bra, modesta BC-05 glass coating, modesta BC-06 wheel coating, and modesta EGC for the glass. It looks much better than brand new when I got it in December. I also have the modesta leather treatment for the interior.

That clean of a Jeep Needs to find dirt on the way home!

Precisely! The dirt still goes on. Just easier to get it off when the time comes

I’m keeping mine for a long time so I’m trying to preserve the factory paint as much as I can.

I am gearing up to add all 4 Mopar mudflaps/splash guards and swap out the High Altitude steps for Rubicon Rock Rails.

Pics to come

Yesterday I installed new Fox 2.0 Performance shocks.

 

[SnazzGlad]

Installed the AEV steering damper upgrade. Wasn’t having any steering issues but figure I would try it out for a 120 bucks. Definitely noticed a tighter feel in the steering wheel. Have not gotten on the highway yet just ran a local errand. AEV includes a new nut and bolt for the change Jeep made somewhere along the way if it’s needed. Mine is an early 2021 and the stock bolt worked fine.

Super clean undercarriage! Nice.
