The Australian Jeep Revolution is HERE!

[@danwhite9436]

Great to see you guys getting on board with the real off-road community.👍

[@KlausVillaca]

Incredible good kit, the Gladiator with this kit should driver better than stock. Good to see something for Jeep here. in Australia

[@patrickh9112]

If it wouldn't be for the adr "extensions" i'd actually would consider it... I am located in qld, so post rego should be possible? U guys re-gear for the 37s? I doubt it will ever hit the 8th gear on the highway?

[@jameswhelan2082]

Lucky to get into 6th down hill

[@winged_detective]

Absolute beaut 👌

[@mitchellpaterson7062]

How those factory axles going to last Back in the day in Vic you could get your wrangler engineered on 37 inch tyres. However you had to replace the front and rear axle with Dana 60s. And upgrade the brakes and suspension

[@jimmybdeluxe]

And from all the reports deeper diff gears in the dana 44s spit pinion gears under load

[@superiorengineering]

The JT and JL diffs are a lot better than the Jk or Tj in stock form 37s are run all around the world with good performance and it stops us from having to charge 60k for a set of 60s.

[@iconiic1234]

You used to be able to get 37's engineered in Vic using Dana 44's too, like the G2 Core 44.

[@mitchellpaterson7062]

@@superiorengineering and no drag linkflip kit this makes a huge difference and I do not know why you guys did not include it

[@justingeorge3397]

Would be good for all the post rego guys

[@Behappy-h6j]

Quality gear.

[@gen1c8rs88]

Does the 2024+ Jeep Wrangler Rubicon in Australia have a full floating rear axle ?

[@superiorengineering]

No the rubicon in Aus gets the non rubicon width semi float axles.

[@iconiic1234]

According to Jeep Australia's website and brochure documentation, yes the Aus spec Rubicon does get the full float rear axle.

[@adrianristevskiristevski4048]

When can we get our hands on the extended bull bar wings??

[@dangrec1]

How do you feel about running a higher GVM than the Gladiator was ever designed for anywhere in the world? The brakes, transmission, frame, axles, driveshafts and everything else you have not upgraded were never designed to carry that much weight. How much long term testing have you done?

[@superiorengineering]

Front drive shaft gets changed and chassis gets braced which I did miss in the video actually, every jeep we see come into our workshop is well above gvm anyway so you can now drive them legally.

[@MrMultihulls]

When are you bringing out this kit for the JL Wrangler Rubicon? I'm already running Metalcloak suspension arms and rods etc but I've been running Superior extended GU shocks for 3 or 4 years now. (same as DIITD Jeff now has) I'm super keen to trial your JL kit. Pls contact me

[@willdrewe8906]

great set up - how come the steering damper has not been lifted ?

[@superiorengineering]

Steering dampener is fitted in the factory location from diff to the tie rod.

[@iconiic1234]

Yeah, it really should be relocated - It hangs way too low on the Euro/Aus spec Wranglers and Gladiators. I bent my factory one in only a little over a year of ownership lol.

[@superiorengineering]

@@iconiic1234yes definitely something we are looking at.

[@danwhite9436]

Is there a long arm kit for a shorty?

[@timolheiser7874]

Stellantis just canned the CEO and replaced him with the retired Jeep Ram design head. Jeep is not going down, but going up. The death nail to the CEO was his plan to eliminate the HEMI V8. Bad move to remove their Nascar V8s. I already see Stellantis USA listening to their dealers and customers. Maybe the Gladiator will be able to have a 392 V8 Hemi and Dana 60 axles afterall. Right now you have to get America's Most wanted V8 swaps to do that, complete with axles. I have regeared my Dana 44 differentials to 5:13 gearing, and plan to truss the axles, with at least a 4.5 or 6.5 inch lift, with 38 inch tires, with a stubby bumper, and Auxbeam bumper mounted 360 7 inch Pros 33K lumens pair, with amber covers, and on the hood a-pillar Auxbeam 5 inch V-Ultra 20K pair lumens, amber. To push backcountry snow, I have the Smittybilt 12 K winch, and plan to install a 52 inch 55k lumen light bar, as the bumper lights get covered with the front plowed deep snow. I see guys running 42 or 43 inch tires here in Alberta, Canada. The Jeep is the adult LEGO set. Just empty every pocket.

[@jimmybdeluxe]

No mention of diff gear changes for 37s?

[@superiorengineering]

The rubicon diff gear suit the 37s very well, they also have a 4.1:1 low range perfect for big tyres.

[@glenndodson1914]

So new it’s not on the website?

[@TheHayabusa09]

Curious as to why you kept the original tie rod and replaced the drag link and panhard rod. Also, is SE considering installing a sector shaft brace as is very popular in the US?

[@superiorengineering]

The factory tie rod is fine to suit the lift as they are adjustable, definitely can be added to the kit though. The panhard and sector shaft brace is something we will look at in the future.

[@michaelbaylis1631]

interesting that you dont use metal cloaks bump stops, made for this exact application

[@superiorengineering]

In the front they use the metal clock bump stop extensions and in the rear the 80 series bump stop is super easy to access for spares if needed in Australia and they are simple the best rubber bump stop out there.

[@michaelbaylis1631]

@superiorengineering I like it, didn't even know this was an option. I imported metal cloak bumps

[@MrCheerbo]

We’re about you guy’s location I need my gladiator to be lifted

[@Cicada4WD]

Just needs an LS now 👌

[@Tangaroa775]

You can get hemi conversion packs ex America

[@mitchellpaterson7062]

hemi 5.7/6.2/6.4 l is better for the jeep

[@cameronclarke3234]

Good timing. Isn't jeep leaving Australia?

[@shanenorwell8580]

The way jeeps going they’ll be leaving the market full stop.

[@superiorengineering]

We had already committed to the ssm prior to jeeps claim of pulling the gladiator from Australia, they have advised of at least 2025 they are staying but we need to wait and see but why not build a few cool ones anyway?

[@patrickh9112]

Stellantis boss got fired and they installed the ex Ram and Jeep executive who actually cares for the brand... so, there is hope

[@ozian79]

Great stuff, but what is the hurdle to doing these kits (long and mid-arm) post-rego? You'd have a line up of current Gladiator owners knocking your door down if there was any way to offer a legal post-rego 37" kit. Your market for pre-rego is pretty limited.

[@superiorengineering]

A very large hurdle of ESC testing which is not readily available in Australia and extremely expensive, the issue we then run into is Queensland would be the only state to accept a 4 inch lift post rego.

[@ozian79]

@@superiorengineering it makes zero sense. There has been effectively no change to the truck since it was introduced to Aus in 2020. Every Gladiator Rubicon has the exact same drivetrain, running gear, frame, brakes, electronics and safety features from 2020 to the current model. I realise that this is not your fault, but it's regulatory insanity to say that the kit is fine on a brand new vehicle, but not one that is already registered. If the whole kit is being installed, what's the difference?? The backwater obstructionist rules over here in Aus are beyond ridiculous. They have effectively cut your potential market for this kit by 90%+. Again, not your fault, but that's the reality. I wish you luck.

[@alexcastas8405]

This is epic engineering for wranglers, fingers crossed Jeep steps up now Tavares is gone!

[@kanefoster5578]

Who would install these kits in Victoria? Cheers?

[@superiorengineering]

Pre registration we can offer the kits nation wide fully legal.

[@Mrchaouk90]

Post rego in victoria ?

[@superiorengineering]

The one is only available Pre Rego sorry.

[@Mrchaouk90]

@ will it ever be available post rego ? Or are u guys gonna be offering anything similat for post rego

[@superiorengineering]

⁠@@Mrchaouk90no post rego approvals would require an esc test which is not readily available in Australia, Queensland and South Australia are the only states that accept post rego 4 inch lift.

[@jasonpen777]

unless Jeeps come out with V8's, there will not be any sort of Australian revolution lol

[@AngeliqueASMR]

Amen to that. They didn’t even bring the 392 wrangler here.

[@livintherealworld]

I guess your head has been in the sand for the last 5 years. Nobody can produce a V8 anymore in a new model.

[@td42williams77]

As if that's not getting defected on 37s

[@mop-4X4]

Did you even watch it? Its pre rego SSM... so just like the 79 series 5" lift with 37s its legal all states

[@superiorengineering]

This is a Pre rego ssm kit, the 37s are technically the factory tyre size.

[@6226superhurricane]

Imagine being so ignorant you said something as stupid as "jeeps have always copped a bad rap in Australia" They built this country long before the pretenders got here.

[@superiorengineering]

This comment was made for the fact that everyone hates on jeeps in Australia and we are trying to change that.

[@6226superhurricane]

"everyone hates on jeeps in australia" no they don't, australia has an established jeep community has had for 80yrs, sooks hating jeeps is a fairly recent thing usually because a jeep showed how useless their 4wd is offroad.

[@iconiic1234]

@@6226superhurricane There's definitely established Jeep communities in Australia that have been around for a long time, but a lot of Aussie 4WD'ers have also been giving Jeep's flack and joking about them for some time now. Most notably from the Toyota and Nissan fanboys lol.

[@6226superhurricane]

@@iconiic1234 i know there's a huge amount of people that make shit up with zero experience. they live in their own toyota/nissan bubbles and start believing each others shit. but it is fairly recent, there's a generation of millenials that grew up after chrysler bought jeep and shut jeep australia down that seem to think toyota and nissans are capable offroad vehicles and not just overweight family wagons and farm trucks. you even hear shit like "aussie landcruiser" yet not a single one was ever designed or built in aus.
