My dad already bought the AJ30 too! 😂

I get 18-19 mpg all day everyday. It does run when I turn fully in parking lots and stuff or on trails at full turn.

People must have lead foot. I drive it like a grandpa. Some people people in FL where it’s flat are getting 17mpg or less on stock tires?? 13mpg on 35’s. Makes no sense. 😂 I don’t question my own MPG cause I know what it says every day. It goes to 15-16 on a trail after an all day slow ass trail ride. A few days later it’s back to 18-19 again.

@@appalachhaun_adventures That is encouraging news. I just put the full blown Teraflex 3.5 lift with the 3.3 falcons, Steer Smart brace, Steer Smart frt track bar, etc. 37 inch Milestars on new 9x17 wheels. It took me off and on 3 days to install the kit, and once everything was done, I drove it around the very large block (rural Idaho) but had a plane ticket to come home the next morning. Won't be going back to Idaho until mid July to go have an alignment and actually DRIVE it to see what's what. The little bit I did drive it (maybe 3 miles) I did not really notice much of a difference in power (gearing). But the Gladiator only has 190 miles on it, so there is not much of a benchmark yet anyway. Thx for the reply, as I am even more curious now about the mileage. I already have an appointment in July to put 5:13's in it based on youtube videos but may cancel that and try it with 4:10's for a bit.

@@grantparnes going from the 33’s to 37’s feels very very minimal if any difference at all when driving it as far as daily driving around town. It feels pretty much exactly the same as with the 33’s to me. It didn’t make it sluggish at all! I don’t really have any desire at all to change gearing! Thanks for watching and for the comments! That sounds like quite the setup you installed!

😂 man there’s been so many good views on the trails! I’ll get a nice drone one day and hopefully add some really awesome footage to the videos!

It was flowing really hard too! The water level did go down a little overnight tho!

Hopefully soon! Had to do a little to fix the Jeep too the last few weeks. Sometimes it’s hard to plan trips. There’s a lot more places I want to go run trails, but a lot of them are 3-5 hrs drive away! Haha. So I’d probably need to camp there too. So it’ll take the whole weekend! We’ll keep making them if y’all keep watching! 😂 thanks 🙏

Your gap between the top of tire to the fender will be 2” less with the 37’s than it was with the 33” tries. So if you flex the suspension hard, you could rub the tire up into the fender some. With the 2” lift I did after getting the tires, it put that gap between top of tires and fender back to stock gap size.

Thank you. What is you tire size? 37x12.5r17?

@@ploythalaylaksameesaengjan5746 yes

Sorry to interrupt, It impossible to find this tire size in Thailand. Will the 35x12.5r17 fit the stock rims?

@@ploythalaylaksameesaengjan5746 yes it will. The 11.50 fits as well. Don’t get any wider than the 12.5

Hell ya! I love this thing! Thanks!!!

That’s pretty dumb that the “rear” ones don’t even fit the rear?? 😂 what the heck Mopar… Ya those don’t look bad at all form what I’ve seen too!! I appreciate the tips there!! I may have to do that to avoid some of the crap throwing up on the side of the Jeep if I get some spacers!

That specific tire is good for the stock 7.5 wheel in their system

That sucks! Shouldn’t be able to do that and hold spots while they’re not there!

@@appalachhaun_adventures - Those two chairs you saw at that campsite down that side path, and you left 'cause you thought someone was camping there....I would not be surprised if that is what someone had done. I don't know what day you were there, but someone could have just left two cheap camping chairs there to deter people. Then they don't show up until a day or two later. If someone ignores it and steals the chairs, it's no great loss.

@@YTusercomment It was a Saturday or Sunday I believe

@@appalachhaun_adventures - Probably legit setup then.

@@YTusercomment I haven’t really had any thoughts that I wanted to go back and camp there. Maybe on a Monday or Tuesday while school is in session and not in the summer 🤔 idk. Haha I don’t like it that busy where I camp.

Nice!!!! Thanks for watching and commenting!!

Nice! I had thought about those too

I’m currently trying to wiring two sets of these to my AUX switches. Advice on how to connect the two wiring harnesses together?

@@TroutBum1924 I just twist all hot wires together into one and used a connector to auxiliary switch wire. Ground wires I twisted together and put under a ground screw on body

@@TroutBum1924 forgot to say that I cut all the excess wire, switches and relays off. Just use wires straight out of lights. Aux switches have relay already

@@bennie873 Sweet. Thanks!

There were many many crossings for sure!!! 😂 I hear it can get deep in spots if it’s been recently raining!

They’re still brand new vehicles l….they have like 6 miles on them…..never sold. They’re NEW

Woops. While I was saying all that, I was just thinking of the difference with staying the same size tires and then moving from 3.73 gears to 4.10s and the RPM’s going up. 😂

was trying to explain how you can have similar RPM ranges going the same speed with 33” smaller tires and the 3.73 gears vs 37” taller tires and the 4.10 gears.

There isn’t much difference between the 2023 and 2024 other than the dash and the stereo/navigation screen. The point is, if I was in the market right now for a Gladiator, you can get a $64K one for $44K. The Ranger has less interior space/leg and shoulder room and is nowhere near as offroad capable. The Ranger will struggle and throw a wheel in the air on terrain the Gladiator just easily rolls over with all 4 wheels planted to the ground.

All the brand new diesels I see are $43K-$44K. Sport or Overland trim levels only.

@@appalachhaun_adventures you would go gas rubicon over sport or overland diesel ????

@@dannysavagedraftguru I see people getting like 25 mpg with 37” tires with diesel 😂 but diesel fuel is expensive as hell. Idk if the better mpg and torque is worth it for me. I think most people with the diesels are happy with them tho! When I was looking, I figured I may as well get everything on it from the get go. Fox suspension, axle lockers, electronic sway bar disconnect, wider axles with 4:10 gears. It sits taller already, etc. it already had the steel front bumper. The one I got has everything except the front trail camera, which I would like to have. I honestly didn’t think too much into a diesel when I was looking for one. 😂🤷🏻‍♂️

@@dannysavagedraftguru some of these Rubicons right now are $40K-$45K but SHOULD BE over $58K-$64K. If I was going to spend $43K right now anyway, I’d def go with the discounted Rubicon or Mojave!

I hear that one spot is a lot worse now where my dad’s Jeep threw a wheel in the air.

There’s an adjustment down on the brakes too if you get the handle tight and it still doesn’t hold on hills, but I have never tried to adjust it there.

Were you all in the ones in the white Gladiator and helped me film for a minute? 😂. There’s a link to Openroad 4WD in the video description for the $13,000 lb winch I have. Also Ozark Overland Adventures uses them a lot and loves them. It’s $499 right now which is already. Good price compared to other brands. Code: ATEMOFFROAD for $80 off. Or check their site a lot. They have like $130 off on it often. Haha! Don’t think you can use the code plus get it on sale too tho

Ya they were handing out parking tickets left and right that day too from people parking on the side of that road but still on the road near hiking trails I guess. It was pretty busy. I’ll have to go back more and check it out! Some of the camp sites did look pretty good, IF you can snag one hahaha

Gas

That stair step obstacle looked like you could go around it to the left side. The one big rock I went up on and over, you can go around. I think some of those mud holes can get deep if it’s been raining recently...I’d worry about that if I went again and would check weather for a good week beforehand lol. I’ve only been on the trail once. I definitely would not do it without good tires. Really good All Terrain tires or Mud Terrain tires. Wouldn’t be good to get stuck if one of those mud holes were deep at the time you showed up. You may be able to search and find more videos of possibly stock vehicles doing it and see if anyone has.

@@appalachhaun_adventures thanks dude, appreciate your feedback. Happy trails!

Thanks man! I haven’t had it with me while on bumpy trails and all that yet. I think I saw one person put a sandwich bag over the whole there then screw on the cap and said it worked too 😂🤷🏻‍♂️

😂😂 you sure that Chevy would make it to beginning of the trail?

😂 this one was a nasty ole mud hole. It the normal hard bottom with water in it… the one and only time I’ve been stuck in the gladiator. I wouldn’t mind if we had a Bronco as another vehicle tho!

😂😂 Come on dude. It wasn’t a regular hard bottom mud hole with just water in a hard bottom….it was nasty thick mud in the bottom. Your kids 90cc raptor would sink to the handle bars…. This has 2” lift and 37” new MT’s with only like 5k miles. Yes. It did get stuck. I have the full video on KZfaq channel. If I could have gotten the Jeep over to the driver side a few more feet, I would have made it out. However, I couldn’t move the Jeep over enough lol. Had to winch.

Thanks man!! I appreciate it. It makes the trail a lot longer when I film it 😂 hopping in and out of the jeep and setting the camera up all those times. Not to mention setting the camera up and trying to get it leveled and not really knowing if it’s going to record the Jeep in full view while you drive by. 😂 The Mojave looks cool with that different hood!

@@appalachhaun_adventures Yea, I can see how much work you put into your video, and I appreciate it, but don't forget to have fun brother.

@@samhouston5217 Hey I appreciate it man! It’s fun to me! I’m like, “oh man this terrain/obstacle looks cool” and jump out to film it haha. But sometimes it’s hard to get the true terrain to show up in the camera the way it looks in real life 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@appalachhaun_adventures Haha I get it. And it is near impossible to capture an uphill slope on camera. It could be wicked steep and the camera shot can look like, "meh," you know what I mean?

@@samhouston5217 yep! Haha. I’ll look back at some of my shots of hills and it kind flat on the video. Weird! I’ve tried pointing the camera right at the vehicle and also tried holding the camera level. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Oh wow! Thats awesome! Since Shop Overland Apparel handles it all, we don’t know who all buys them! Stay in style! 😂 We truly appreciate all of your support! Gonna try to get some cool content this year!
