I went from a '08 Power Wagon to a '22 JT Rubi diesel. Both vehicles beg for 35's or larger tires. Had 37's on the PW. Planning on doing the same for the JTRD.
I have 21 Rubi JLU with the 3.0 Eco. If you do 37’s you would be fine with 4.10. I did 4.56 because we’re always hauling but I think with the 4.56’s I could hop up to 40’s comfortably.
@@MrNismopro I went with the 37's shortly after my post. Still on the 3.73 gears. The diesel doesn't care. My mpg only dropped by 2 mpg. The ideal gear would be 4.30 with 37's. But no one makes it.
I can attest that my PW is an absolute beast offroad so far. If it fits it will climb it. In the video, the Gladiator didn’t have the front lockers engaged as that may have helped out some more. A 392 Hemi has power for days compared to the Gladiator and definitely doesn’t struggle at all. I would agree with the weight issue comments below and that could be somewhat detrimental in deep soft mud. I try to keep out of mud pits as the mud gets everywhere and is no fun cleaning up afterwards. I do enjoy climbing ruts and rocks and will absolutely go through the mud when required.
Love my Power Wagon, having true front and rear lockers and disconnecting sway bay and a winch stock is a savior! i only changed the springs to level and added heavier duty front and rear sway bars with high clearance bumpers with 37s, no issues going anywhere i want, just bring a hedge trimmer to save the paint :D
@@gabrielfelixmunoz739 nope, it’s lifted 2” stock but not leveled, Thuren Fabrication and Carli make the leveling kits as well as an additional lift kit, with the 2” leveling kit the 37s fit better. I promise you they aren’t leveled stock, I make part of my living working on them. There is also an additional set of front springs through Thuren that slightly lift the front about an inch and a half and not the rear for those who still wish to keep a very slight rake but the 2” front springs are the ones that truly level it.
Uhhhh. They both have front and rear lockers. Looked like the gladiator didn't have his front locker engaged though. They both have automatically disconnecting sway bars. They both have solid axles front and rear.
I'd say, as a PW owner that soft/deep mud, and getting really crazy in the sand are the worst....Also I notice that the turning radius kinda sucks on Jeep trails where you're going between trees, rocks and stuff---Its a very large vehicle-- I do run 37s, aftermarket wheels and Carli Suspension with White Knuckle Sliders, and have taken my rig to some pretty cool places. The PW is fairly long too, so when you go down a steep hill, that has a trough in the bottom, you will tend to hit the bumpers a bit....That being said, for a pickup truck from the factory, it is very capable.
@@precisionmarksmanshiphq773 I've been looking into carli suspension and thuren and pretty much decided on going carli... Which shocks did you go with and how are you liking it??
@@RandyTGJ Talking to CJC Offroad I went with the Backcountry System...I drive mostly on road as it's my daily...but I'm most definitely impressed offroad too...Taking dirt roads at 50 to 60 that my buddys go 20 to 30 on...Not at all disappointed...I get more payload capacity and a bit more articulation....They told me to stay with the Power Wagon factory Radius arms if I want the most articulation....so far, badass!
Whatever you aired down to…. Air down even more.

Awesome video choice
The Jeep Driver is not good.
He must add more on GAS ACCELERATOR PEDAL to make the car go.
Power Wagon for the Win!!
What are lift and size tires does the first Gladiator have?

@@johnraygun9868 ah, I see the forums have lied to me. well thanks
@@gabrielfelixmunoz739 no problem Sir, it’s definitely hard to get the correct information these days. Have a good one brother
@@johnraygun9868 appreciate it
Nathan said it best. Power wagon don't care.
Yeah. PDUB
not much traction to be found on that hill that day.
Doesn't look like either vehicle aired down.
Power wagon don’t care
Looking diff . Vs open diff. Not much a a fair comparison ?
not open diff,it does have a whopping 260 ft/lbs torque.
Uhhhh. They both have front and rear lockers. Looked like the gladiator didn't have his front locker engaged though. They both have automatically disconnecting sway bars. They both have solid axles front and rear.
It's funny how it cuts away from the wrangler and shows the pw ready to execute where the wrangler failed
Got the wrong tires on the JT
Air down and lock the diffs. You also have different modes to crawl that hill in both models ffs
The guy driving the Jeep doesn't know how to drive!
Let’s be real… majority of the Jeeps around the world don’t know how to drive lmfao
الدفلك يرفع القدرة للتخطي ١٠٠٪
Looks like the woods of New England
smh....what cant the pw do
Not gonna lie I got one and it's got a weakness... putting 8000 lbs in soft mud don't go together. But lemme put some 37 km3's and ill be straight.
pass a gas station.seriously.

GRIP! Air down and claw your way through.
hey lockers don't work as well as we all think
Tire choice matters a lot
? Yes they do lol
PW, only $80K + taxes.
The PW driver has no.clue about offroading
Cringed a lot on the pw performance
Mopar products.......they will be in the shop after this video.
Jeep... A four-wheel drive Fiat... 'Nuff said!!!...
Driving is horrible. Stupid comparison
BAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA...... JEEP FANBOY!!!!...... the Power Wagon OWNS the Gladiator!!!
