Water depth on gladiator is 33”, which is the stock tire size on the Rubicon, Mojave is a little taller, but all your important electric things reside about ‘middle of the grill’….radiator fan and alternator. Then if you do manage to swamp it to the point where a snorkel keeps you from sucking in water, your battery and several fuse blocks are only ~ 1” different than the air intake hole the snorkel plugs into. Not hating, just saying, I crossed water a little over my 33s the other day, then looked under the hood at the water/mud lines, it was closer to the sparky and shocks bits than I’d prefer

Matt, thanks for taking the time to put this together. For you, I think this was the logical step up from Knuckles. Not so sold on the aux lights. Have heard some negative stories surrounding water infiltration, but you can’t beat the price. What I’m not so sold on is Cara’s Jeep. I know she wanted a Jeep and a Bronco, and, and, and. When you’re traveling full time it has to be about experiences not things, because you simply don’t have the ability to take everything with you.

@frenchie4wd 2 жыл бұрын

Hey! I do like having new tech. Not really here to sell anyone on anything. We just weren’t able to outfit the grand Cherokee with the armor it needed for us. The bronco, while being awesome, is a huge unknown for us when we both have experience with Jeeps. When we are on the road full time, I will need a vehicle that can 1) go to the remote places we plan to travel to and 2) allow an extra vehicle for when either Matt goes on trails and I have to stay back or when his Jeep has to have repairs. We don’t want to be stranded with no means of travel. So while, we won’t have the ability to take everything we own with us full time..another vehicle has always been a given.

@knucklebuster1031 2 жыл бұрын

It is a lot of money but money isn’t as important as the enjoyment you can have with it. So it is well worth it. People that spend that kind of money and then never use it makes no sense but for you I think it is a good bargain. We enjoy watching you and Cara. May God bless you and your endeavors.

I personally love the Smartcap and was all for it. Ideally it would be nice for a company to make a 1/2 height option like it.

Love this video. So much great info. Would you ever consider doing a video just on the power in the back? I am new to this and trying to figure out batteries/Redarc/Inverter and all of that is so confusing.

Hi Matt!! I was wondering if you had a part number for your airbags? I’ve got the 3.5” game changer lift kit from metal cloak, I tow a Boreas XT and do experience some sag. Hoping these bags will help.

I have a few questions about that front bumper. Do the factory led fogs fit? Also do you think the harbor freight badlands 12k winch will fit?

First time seeing your channel.. had to laugh at the hair due.... but... I will say that I appreciate the honesty and break down of cost for the build. It provides a great amount of information to use in the planning process. I really appreciate the honesty in letting your viewers know what products you paid for and what you were provided .... it's not like we don't know that is done. It's a part of it as you said. Whether you call it "sponsorship " or being an "ambassador " ... But strangely and aggrevatingly some "YpuTubers" seem to think they are "famous " big stars and blah blah blah...and don't provide that information. So dude sport the crazy hairdue and keep it real and honest. I am going to hit the like and subscribe button ! 😎👍

Thanks for the video. It is a lot of money but sounds like it is worth it. I do like your videos. I was wondering how much you had into your rig. I did like the price of the front bumper not the rear. I was wondering why you wouldn't have gone with a 4 or 6 inch lift. You know better clearance. Would like to see a video of how you had your switches all wired in and working. I probably missed it. Thanks keep it up

@OzarkOverlandAdventures 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks! My philosophy is the keep it as low as possible to run the size tires I want to run. I like a low center of gravity. Plus the higher you go the more you have to change.
