Can GLADIATOR keep up with WRANGLER?? 1 TON swapped rigs cruise POISON SPIDER

Ride along with me and my buddy Jim as we roll through the Canyonlands National Park, camp in the back country and take the scenic route up to Moab, Utah to hit Poison Spider Mesa. The rugged beauty is endless!
Along the way, we compare some of the differences in the way we approach obstacles in our two rigs. Both Jim’s JKU and my JT are on 1 ton axles, long arm suspension, 40” Milestar Patagonias and 4.5” of lift. If you’ve been weighing the pros and cons of the Wrangler vs the Gladiator offroad, this is the video for you!

Great video. I have a set of UD 60s sitting in my garage that I plan on installing on my 2016 JKUR here before the new year.

Amazing! Good luck with the project 💪🏼

[@KessyProductions]

Great video man. I can’t wait to get back out to Moab.

[@4XTRAIL]

Appreciate it! Yeah man, same here!

[@grenobel]

Although I’m a Rubi 2dr owner and I have noticed advantages on tight trails, I definitely have noticed that school buses have an advantage in uphill and downhile large obstacles when they can clear everything. Great job on the tons and 40s on your rig - that configuration makes a huge difference on a JT build.

[@4XTRAIL]

For sure - a 2 door must be super nice on tighter trails (and in parking lots!) thanks for the comment 👊🏼

“Pretty hot “ hahaa ! Come on, we live in the valley. I haven’t seen 65f since what March/April ? Phx still pushing 100 +everyday

[@4XTRAIL]

LOL that’s fair. I was expecting cooler at night, hard to camp in 100*. Thankfully was better on the CO side!

Still enjoying all of your content from KY.

Hey Neil! Appreciate the comment, so glad you’re still following along!

It looks like monster for climbing mountain your JT and HQ1 JK!! I'm planning to go there this December. I'm worried because it's winter and I think I need to find an easy trail. Thanks for sharing video^_^

[@4XTRAIL]

You will love Moab! I haven’t been in winter but I’m sure you can still find some good trails to do.

That trail left its mark on us

[@stuartisaacharrier]

Bro, can you do a full walk around of your new build with all the accessories and the little things included? (What kind of air pressure valve stems are those?) Also, what all did you pack for your trip? How are you organizing your gear and what does your camp setup process look like? 😬😬

[@4XTRAIL]

Bro, yes! Love those ideas…walkaround video coming soon. Camping gear list a good idea! 🙌🏼

[@stuartisaacharrier]

Yes!
