Thank you for taking along a newbie and teaching him. You're a good man.
Best time ever!!! Thank again Allen! I do pretty good job filming lol
Hey James, I’m glad you found the video, thanks for being part of it, and for the awesome camera work. Safe travels and happy trails.
I loved seeing two Gladiators on the trail.
It was fun to have good company and to make a new friend. Thanks for watching.
That is one nice looking Jeep.👍🏻🇺🇸
Thank you, and thanks for watching. Stay tuned for many more adventures. Happy trails.
Not everyone can say they did Hell's Revenge in the dark (including Hell's Gate at midnight)!! Thanks to you, I've got that memory. Another great adventure! Neat to see it at these camera angles and in the daylight!
Good times, great memories.
2 min in... "Shock fart shocks", I'm dead.... LMAO!!!!!
Good great quality video
Gr8 video, but I refuse to take my 63k 2021 Mojave into that environment no how no way, been there done that on Uncle Sams dime in multiple Military platforms, with that being said, glad all the sidewalk commandos had fun doing this video, nice to see the capability of my Gladiator on someone else’s dime!! You can find me on New Smyrna Beach Florida, watching the T Backs, & the waves 🌊 rolling in!!
Great video !
Thanks
Great video. 👍👍
Thanks!
Fantastic video! It's been nearly 20 years since I've been on the trail with my first Jeep and I've been telling my friends we need to take a trip. Just a few hours away and I have a JT Rubicon these days. Excellent video - freaking awesome music! Never heard the "my best friend is a snake" song...who is that...so funny!!
Hi John, thanks for watching. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I use Comma Music (website) to get my music. “My best friend’s a snake” is by a group called Unkaloo. They have some fun songs for sure. Get out and take advantage of your JT, enjoy the Land of the Free, go and make some memories. Happy trails.
@@LandoftheFree Thanks bud...you have a follower for life
I recently bought a Mojave and it was nice to see the stock capability.
Thanks for watching Brian. The Mojave is a great vehicle, very capable. Happy trails.
Great video! Makes me want to hop in my gladiator and find some trails 😎
Thank you, and thanks for watching. Stay tuned for many more adventures. Happy trails.
first! WHERE IS THE DOG LOL😂🤣😅
He couldn’t make the trip with me, so sad.
Looks amazing, would love to wheel there one day…it has always been a dream of mine..
Hi Derek, thanks for watching. I’m glad you enjoyed it. Life is short, so make it happen. But wherever you are, get out and enjoy the Land of the Free.
Sick Jeeps. If only they had the Angry face grills.
4:02 little wake up call that even on 40’s, this thing won’t wheel like a wrangler lol
Yeah, it does have a long, “low” belly lol. Thanks for watching, and happy trails.
Wow it’s so amazing what that jeep can do on those shock farts
Thanks? Gotta love auto-correct. Thanks for watching
Visiting Moab with wife and kids in July on way to Rubicon Jeep Jamboree, won’t have any experienced spotters or support, Hells Revenge looks pretty manageable for a Rubicon on 37s and 2.5 lift and heavy under armor? As I’m typing this you’re talking about the escalator 😬😆
Hi Blain, thanks for watching. It sounds like you’re going to have an awesome trip. It’s great that you’re taking the whole family. Hell’s revenge will be totally manageable with your setup, even without a spotter! Happy trails.
I would definitely be using my forward camera!
It helps so much. Thanks for watching. Happy trails.
Hell's revenge is one of my favorite trials of all time. Where did you get that bed rack from?
Hi Jay, thanks for watching. My bed rack is from ARTEC Industries. It’s aluminum and only weighs 49 lbs. Check out my complete build specs in a more recent video called, “Ultimate Overland Build.” Also, if you haven’t already, please consider subscribing to stay up to date on all our latest adventures. Happy trails.
maybe asked already.. wheel / tire / lift info ? other mods ? Beautiful gladiator, love the color. 2021 has sarge green, hoping for something more military-ish for 2022 when I order mine.
Hi, thanks for watching, I hope you enjoyed the video. My gladiator has a 4.5” Skyjacker lift with 40” Nitto Trail Grapplers on 17x9 Fuel Zypher Beadlocks with -38 backspacing. A complete build video can be found in my first video “A Journey Through Space and Time”. Although I do need to warn you that I messed up and recorded the sound way too low, so it’s hard to hear. Please consider subscribing, and best of luck when you order your gladiator in 2022. If you have any other questions please feel free to reach out, I’m happy to help.
(I have since changed the springs on my lift to 4.5” Evo Evolution springs, the Skyjacker springs made my Jeep lean to the passenger side. I reached out to Skyjacker but had no luck with warranty or replacement.)
@@LandoftheFree Thanks for the info... your build mirrors my personality.... I'm sure you and I would get along fantastically. I'm looking at the diesel, so I know some of my options will be limited, but hopefully the market will start catching up . Video can change color, is yours the gator green ? After watch this video and many others, it seems maybe the front mounted trail cam might be worth the extra $$. One big concern is having to regear for the larger tires. I have read, with the diesel, people are running 35's & 37's no problem, but will have to regear for the 40's. The gladiator just looks at home with a 4"/4.5" lift on 40's. Subbed ! will check out your other videos, THANKS !
Looked fun it’s been a long time since I have been on that trail the last time was in a full size 77 f150 back in 1996
Do you have any advice for a soon to be gladiator Mojave owner that’s not too overboard
Thanks for watching. If I had any advice it’d be to prioritize getting out and enjoying the time spent with family and friends in your Gladiator. As for any build recommendations, I’d prioritize in the following order:
1. Lift and larger tires
2. Recovery gear (winch, straps, etc.)
3. Lights
4. Possibly new gears if your tires are 37” or larger
5. Skid plates, rock sliders, bumpers
6. Creature comforts
I would analyze how you intend to use it. Rock crawling? Desert mobbing? Mall crawling? And build it for that particular mission. Also, build it based on you needs and likes, don’t get caught up in other peoples tastes.
Good luck, and happy trails.
Love that green Jeep build.. what size tires and what size and brand lift/ suspension?
Thanks for watching. The gladiator has 40” tires with a 4.5” Skyjacker lift. I have since replaced the Skyjacker springs with Evo Manufacturing springs, also 4.5”. The Jeep sat a little crooked with the Skyjacker springs.
Surprised to hear that’s a 4.5” lift, those 40s looked stuffed under that thing 👍✌️
Who sings "My best friend is a snake"?
Have you upgraded or swapped out your axles to handle the 40’s ? Any steering assist required? Thanks man
I put ARTEC Industries trusses and gussets on the stock axles, I also re-geared the axles to 5.38 Yukon gears. I don’t currently have any steering upgrades, but I’ve got them in the works. Steering becomes an issue once the power steering fluid heats up.
@@LandoftheFree 37's seem to be the magic number. My spare still fits under my bed, I get 18 miles per gallon, no gearing issues and I can conquer most anything.
How do you like the fender chop lights. Would you do it again?
I love the fender chop lights, I’d do it again in a heartbeat. Thanks for watching.
What tire pressure are you running, the tires do not look like you aired them down?
Good question, and justified. I aired down to 8 psi, it clearly wasn’t enough. I’ve since learned that I need to air down to 5.5-6 psi to get the proper sidewall deflection. The Nittos that I’m running must have super stiff sidewalls, but I was reluctant to go lower than 8 psi because I had a problem with a different rig that would “burp” air out of the inside bead when I aired down too low. Thanks for asking, happy trails.
If anyone goes out to MOAB to wheel and all you notice are the trail marks left by tires than why are you even out there?
What size tires and lift are you running. Thanks Mike
Hi Mike, thanks for watching. I’ve got 40x13.5R17 Nitto Trail Grapplers. For more build info I’d recommend watching my Ultimate Overland Build video. Happy trails.
What kind of bumper do you have? can you drop a link please. thanks
Hi JR, thanks for watching. I just have the stock steel bumpers. I’m sorry, but given my current situation I don’t have a link to provide for you. Like I said though, they’re just the stock steel bumpers from Jeep. Happy trails.
Bro, may i know the color of your Jeep, is it the Gobi?
Hi Alexander, my Jeep’s color is Gator. Happy trails.
what camera do you have??
Hi Lorenzo, thanks for watching. My main camera is a Canon R6, I also have a few GoPros, and my drone is a DJI Mavic Air 2. I’m not convinced it’s the best setup, but I think it gets the job done. Please subscribe if you haven’t already, happy trails.
Do you do tours and if so how much do you charge.
Hi Rick, thanks for watching. I’ve never considered doing a tour, and wouldn’t consider myself the best option. I know there’s plenty of places in Moab that would offer a better service than I could provide. My approach has always been to find a group at the trail head, or even out on the trail, and then simply ask if I could tag along. Everyone seems very willing to let us join their group, and I’ve made many new friends this way. The off-road community is great in this regard. Best of luck, happy trails, and don’t forget to subscribe if you haven’t already. Thanks again.
What you mean grew up mountain biking? Get back in the saddle man. Lol 🤘🤙
Thanks for watching. I still go mountain biking, unfortunately not as often as I’d like to. In fact I’ve tried to get my kids into mountain biking as well. Here’s a video from my son’s channel of him mountain biking near our home.

@@LandoftheFree that’s awesome. Took a glance at vid, will watch it after work. Getting my lil guy into it too. I had a layoff from mtb for about 17 years cause I was playing Rugby full time and working and just didn’t have the time. Got back into it in 2016 as Rugby career neared its end. Man how far the bikes have come. On a nice full squish all mountain bike (Santa Cruz Bronson) now and loving it. It’s like my bmx bike from the 80s and a mountain bike had a baby. One of the reasons I got the Gladiator is bc with an Alucab canopy I can store it in the bed 24/7 securely along with all my mtb stuff, still have lots of room left in bed, and still have my entire back seat area free. Plus the Gladiator Rubicon is just a bad ass go anywhere adventure rig. It’s funny how much similarity there is between mtbing and offroading- line choice, positioning the rig, getting muddy and just enjoying being outdoors in general.
Like your set up. Are you running 37s or 40s on there? For me I’m gonna go 35s with a 2 in lift at least for first set of tires as it should be plenty sufficient for my uses. I’d like to modify as little as possible on it but still get what I need. I’ll get wheels that can handle 37s should I change my mind down the road. But first mod will be bumper and winch. Im far more likely to get myself stuck in one of our Appalachian muddy bogholes than need 35s immediately.
Man you live in a beautiful place. I did Moab in about 92 on a fully rigid Mongoose Hilltopper (back when Mongoose still made legit mtbs) and was just blown away by the scenery. Seen a lot more of the world since, but Moab and Utah in general still never cease to impress. Have fun out there and enjoy getting your lil man into the sport. 🤙
I’m running 40s on my gladiator. It’s funny how it’s hard to tell in the videos, in person, they look huge.
Good luck getting your little one into biking.
Looks like a fun day. Nice Jeeps but that break-over angle is really bad on this trail. Poor bumper. Probably rides nicer on the highway though.
You might want to rethink some of your earlier lines. 4:18 is text book, what not to do in Moab but I do realize with that long wheelbase, your approach angles are more limited. In general, as I'm sure you know since you grew up there, you never want to ascend on an angle to the incline- try to go as straight up and down as possible. Good job on H*ll's Gate though. I passed that obstacle but did the main trail without any issues. I reversed several times to make sure I lined up perfectly with the hills. Nothing to prove on TOC- good choice to skip. That was the site of a tragedy years ago. RIP. With that event in mind, be very careful about carrying gas externally on any trail where you might tip. Also, Moab Rim had 2 fatalities just after we left in April 2021. I think that was equipment failure- something snapped and they rolled back and off the rim.
Thanks for the pointers, I appreciate everyone’s perspective. We can all take a moment to learn from others. I’ve got a new rear bumper in the works, it will dramatically improve my departure angle. Thanks for watching. Happy trails!
@@LandoftheFree Not trying to give pointers- just commenting on the line you took across the hill which surprised me. The bumper should help but I don't really think that rig was made for trails that have steep obstacles- more hills and dirt roads and maybe sand IMO. Even with the new bumper- it will hit.
