The build starts with some new wheels and tires! I will be lifting the Gladiator soon but for now im still piecing together the lift so I'm going to slap the new 37s on and send it!

The gouges from the end caps on the bumper are really annoying, but it'll happen when you remove and replace the end caps. Mopar sells a can of touch-up spray paint for the bumper, but I don't know what the part number is - if you find it, please share it. Also that hole in the bumper at 7:20 is for a dune flag. It looks tough with those 37s!

@SmokinMonkeyOG 9 ай бұрын

I was thinking it might be for a flag! If I find that paint I’ll let you know

Looks awesome! Question: When I ordered my Rubicon Wrangler I opted for factory 35" tires so I could get the 4:56 gearing. Was that not an available option on the Gladiator, and if it was, why did you not get it? 🤔 Thank you

@SmokinMonkeyOG 9 ай бұрын

No it wasn’t but I wish they had that option for the gladiators. Mine is the stock rubicon 4.10

@manualtuning5222 9 ай бұрын

Make sure you deflate the spare time some so if you hit it on a rock the spare doesn’t make you bounce and it’s less likely to cut the spare if it’s deflated some, especially since it’s hanging lower than the stock tire now

When i first got my JL, here in New-Brunswick , on a 2.5hrs trip , mostly highway i was able to get to 10.5L/100. When i installed the roof rack it went up to 14.3L/100😆.. Then i installed the tent it went to 17.8L/100 and with all that and added 37’s it jumped to 21.3L/100. The i geared 5.13 and not i’m around 14.3L/100 in the spring to fall. Best decision i ever made lol That’s also at 28psi on 37’s nitto’s and beadlocks.

@038Landry 9 ай бұрын

@@SmokinMonkeyOG funny enough i have a hard time keeping 8th gear even with 5.13 here, the wind from tbe coast and the hills are brutal. I wish i did 5.38’s, but i don’t trust a pinion that small lol. I feel like in your area you’d be happy with a re-gear for sure.

@SmokinMonkeyOG 9 ай бұрын

@038Landry ya I don’t carry much weight so I’m thinking maybe 4.88 should get me back to the stock level. If they’re selling Jeeps with 35s and 4.56 gears from factory I’m guessing one step up to 4.88 will get me close to that stock feel

@038Landry 9 ай бұрын

@@SmokinMonkeyOG agreed. That was my debate to go between 4.88 and 5.13. All relative to where you live and terrain and what you do with it. If you’re happy with the stock 4.10’s, you’ll be very happy with 4.88 for sure!

Did adding 37s add any height to your jt? If so how many inches?

@SmokinMonkeyOG 8 ай бұрын

Yes of course, going from a 33 to a 37 will add 2.5 inches of height because the tire is 5 inches bigger in diameter so it’s 2.5 inches bigger on each side giving you an additional 2.5 inches of height and clearance underneath

For someone who claims to not have any money you're sure seem to spend a lot, must be KZfaq pays well. The tires and wheels look good and there only one inch from the center taller than the 35's so it is not really that big of a difference, however that inch or so of poke as you call it will spray the mud on the side of your jeep. I must say though that this is the first time I've seen a guy use the height of his jeep to show off his knees, HA HA, next time could you get a hot chick to do it for you. You converted your speed to mph could you also convert your milage to mpg for us SAE people. Now go get it muddy.

Never had 35s I had 33s and I don’t have money believe me if I did I would’t have to keep working or making videos lol 😂

@stephenwest798 9 ай бұрын

So, you are two inches taller and two inches' further from center so yea they are a bit harder to turn. You will notice it more on the trail than on the road but I myself would go with the 4 to 1 transfer case as opposed to 4.56 gears in the differentials. Just like the rest of us you would have money if you could just stop spending it but that's like losing weight it is hard to do.

@SmokinMonkeyOG 9 ай бұрын

I sold my motorcycle to fund the build. Gotta make sacrifices. If I had money I wouldn’t need to sell my stuff. And the rubicon comes with the 4 to 1 transfer case already
