MALL CRAWLER vs ROCK CRAWLER - Jeep Comparison! 

Careful now, probably 90% of the people watching rock a Dana 30 😂

😂My wife just asked me if the Silver jeep comes with a Tampon dispenser?...spit out my beer.😂😂😂

To each, their own. I'm going with the stepchild.

I think that silver is JK is one of my favorite show Jeeps out there, it's all top of the line stuff.

Dude Jeep is pretty rad , He pulled the trigger on a ton of rad stuff AND clearly it’s been working for him !

I'm here for the Mall Crawler. The StepChild is cool too.. 🤘🏼

A very nicely put together mall crawler. Happy Trails to you both.

9:15 “SEMA mounted” 😂 if that doesn’t deserve a like, I don’t know what does.

Like you said, if the owner is happy, that is all that matters.

Love the comparison. That jeep is rad. It really just needs the axil swap and regearing and it would be off road capable. It must have very slow acceleration on 43"without regearing.

Pretty much every 'offroad' vehicle in Scottsdale AZ too. People drop $30-50K into new truck and it'll never see gravel let alone anything bigger. But... you do you.. your money.

Love Luna’s personality. She’s the best.

Easy on the 3.6 engine. I've been running mine since 2013 without issues. It's been cost to cost 3 times, and yes I off-road it. 33s on the stock 44s and 4:10 gears.

Yall are killing it. Car dealership to traveling all over and building amazing vehicles. Great job to both of y’all

My stock 2004 jeep grand Cherokee limited edition stock 30 & 35 have been across the Rubicon 4 times no problems. Even running a aluminum ring and pinion. The rear end makes a little bit of noise after 250,000 miles but it's still holding strong. The guy has a really badass jeep hand's down. I'm not knocking on him. But a Jeep is meant to be used. This new generation is killing it with the rubber ducks in the windshields and what ever else you see these new age jeep owners doing. I found a rubber duck on my jeep the other day and put it in the trash. Grow a pair and drive your jeep where no one else will. Awesome video Kevin and Brittany. Can we please get back to wheeling again 🙏 I remember when y'all were living in your jeep and going everywhere. Colorado is by far the best videos y'all have ever made. My bucket list is to see the trails there. God bless lite Brite Nation and peanut and jelly

Love this video! Best wingin it ever btw. I thank you for putting this video out. Some people just can’t afford to go break their Jeep crawling in the rocks and whatnot. But can afford to build it once into something cool that they can enjoy and take care of and kind of baby it around. And I don’t think there is anything wrong with that at all. If they are out having fun with it at the beach or the mall or a show and that’s what they enjoy rather than crawling and off-roading then they’ve achieved the same thing that the people do that go out and offroad and do the trail fixes with the onboard welders and all that kind of stuff that is what they like and have fun doing. Jeepin is jeepin if ya ask me. Dont matter if you’re in the woods or the rocks or the mall parking lot or the beach or driving down the highway.

Another great video love it!!!

Both jeeps are awesome. You guys are awesome thank you so much.

This is how I found this channel. Seeing the Stepchild in a parking lot. I see jeeps like the silver one all the time. Seeing one built like that and clearly used is unusual.

That was a pretty cool video, I like seeing other people’s builds and ideas. That being said I’m going with the stepchild hands down every day of the week

Very impressive, most impressive!

Great show guys to all of you ❤❤❤❤❤

Cool comparison lmao. 😅 keep up the great content and wheeling like old times. Luna and her man are a great addition to your videos

Great Vid, I live just up the road in Flagler Beach. Jeep invasion.

That team es el combo ganador!!

Our 2016 2dr Rubicon Hard Rock is a “mall crawler: high curb edition”, according to the sticker on the rear window. Still on the stock 3.6 and 44 axels, running 34’s with a 3 inch lift. We are 6 “badge of honor” trails in (plus countless others) with no problems. Every Jeep is awesome in its own way, just like the owner. God Bless.

THANKS FOR THE VIDEO

I actually have both. My '99 TJ is my rock off-roader Jeep & my JT Glady is more of my daily / looks really good & I keep it clean for the most part. It does pull a trailer, so there's that. I do find it hilarious on the FB forums how many people give heck to others about their Jeep build. I too say, "to each their own"

Awesome video people!

If he put some beefy diffs an axles in it, it wouldn't have enough power to break anything of the caliber in the build. Really, he could really do some awesome crawling after a couple things, gears an diffs, axles, heck Ya. Is what it is, nice build 👌

I've got a Sport with the Dana 30. Slowly getting it where I want it. 3" lift, 35" Ridge Grapplers, Rubicon rock rails, Willys wheels, 4.88 gears, handful of other mods. I do take it off road. The Dana 30s are stronger than people give them credit for. If you drive smart and dont beat the hell out of it, it'll last. I jokingly call mine a "Sporticon." Have plans for new rims, steel bumpers, winch, and possibly 37s. Always a work in progress.

Great video! Originally from Daytona Beach area, now in the ATL and just bought a 2017 JK. Keep doin' y'alls thing!!! Aaaaaaaand Rock Crawler 100! Stepchild. Cheers!

Seen you guys traveling through missouri on I 70 headed west around mile pole 167 I was headed east to work but was awsome to see you guys

Can't argue with happiness!! ❤️❤️💯🤙🏻

I get it but i'll never understand it. That's a ton of money for riding down the beach. The good thing is if they ever decide to sell it to someone that does crawl after swapping the axles there wont be a lot of other things that would need to be done to support them big ol tires.

I love both types. Im a certified mall crawler since i just got into the jeep scene late last year. We'll see where it goes.

Great job again.

I’ll take the Mall Crawler. Much better. Great build.

I crawl on the decorative landscape rocks at the mall!

You really can't beat a bit of town and country. One of each please!

I definitely go for functionality!

well, this made me a subscriber. All feels real and legit!

My YJ has multi shades of faded/ oxidized red paint. Shinny paint causes stress...... I can appreciate any vehicle someone has put work into.

Honestly, I would love to own a base model Jeep(Sahara 2dr), manual trans with a great stereo just to drive around with the doors and roof off and enjoy the nice days! Easy going, fun and relaxing!!

You gals look lile,Luma belongs in the stepchild a Brittney with the mall crawler.. Lol.

that wind ;)

Pretty in pink!

Like my jeep , a pavement princess 😂

Saludos desde 🇵🇦🇵🇦🇵🇦... PANAMA... HERMOSA.. FULA... soy un nuevo admirador de ste tu canal y de tu amiga Luna.... LINDOS JEEP.. 🇵🇦😎

Nice jeep . Built for what it does .

One of each!

“Deja la muela viejo, párate allí” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Dana 30’s with 43” tires.. wow! But it’s in Florida, zero hills to climb. Maybe part of why the front axle has lasted for years??? Looks awesome

Its the spray painted shock hoops including overapray on the frame for me

Take either or... BUT if I wanted one, it would be the StepChild!!!

The mall crawler looks good, but the step child is my kind of wheelin.

Im not a mall crawler, but I appreciate the beauty and hard work. I got nothing against them

Love the look of the mall crawler but nothing can compare to the Step-child. Take care God bless.

Cool comparison. I prefer the functionality if I am spending the kind of money it costs for everything.

The best Jeep is which ever one Brittney and Luna is sitting in.😂

Dam Barbie looking good

I say that depends on where you live, like y'all said Florida not much wheeling around, so why not just have a show jeep? And then there's ballers on a budget, we can only afford certain things at a time lol

The Dana 30 is weak as pond water.. I’m impressed he hadn’t twisted the front axles running over 40” tires … unless he NEVEr runs in 4x4 wich is a real possibility… even with 33” tires on a stock Dana 30 I’ve broken my axles while doing some very mild wheeling… I upgraded to a ford 8.8 and so far have been pleased…

Full send Marlin needs to take his brothers jeep for a drive 😈

I keep my rock road paint job, it goes well with crystal granite

As far as Jeeps go I bought my Jeep to offroad so I modified it for that purpose to the extent that I could with my budget.(we need those cast Lite Brite wheels btw). That said I love this guys Jeep. He modified it within his budget to fit his purpose. I like anything someone does with a vehicle that makes it their own and they enjoy. I respect that. I guess I’m just a plain old motorsports enthusiast. “There is only one way to avoid criticism: Do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing” Have you ever met a hater who wasn’t a loser? Don’t think I have.

He was staying in the same building as us for Jeep beach. Saw it in the parking lot.

I can appreciate both

the overspray on that coilover mount, dump all the money into it you want but details like that are what matters.

I have both... but if I had to choose between those 2.... Rock 🪨 for sure...

What differential guards do you run or recommend ?

whow great video

classic video of how to build your vehicle. I live in central florida and do not have a rock crawler because we dont have rocks here. I am only running 33s and i have a frige in my jeep because it gets very hot and i like my drinks very cold.

It is easy and cheap to fix stock, more challenging, to offroad and duel purpose. All Jeeps are cool. Never seen a bad one.

To each his own!

Of course stepchild! But the silver one is cool looking

My wife doesn't believe I'm watching for the Jeeps, The nerve of that woman

Proud pub crawler, pushing 60 years old, I'm just not interested in cleaning and repairing off-road stuff anymore. So we look at our Jeep like a convertible, instead of paying 100k for new Corvette, we have a customized Rubicon we can haul friends in, bar hop and drive to Jeep events in comfort without trailering. I tell everyone its like a Harley for old people, lol!

I here for the mall crawler definitely no rocks alot of mud and sand so yea , love the step child 👍

If I had the chance to own any of these Jeeps, I wouldn't have the money to fix them anyway. Both are awesome and in my hands, both would be for show and easy camping. Enjoy life and your money. Life is short to try to imitate others.That is why I love Jeeps. You can make them look like whatever you want. Stepchild paint job all the way!!!!

I prefer the term beach cruiser over pavement princess. 35s and naked is the way to go.

The best way to describe it is “Any race car makes a good show car, but not all show cars are race cars” I prefer the stepchild since it is super functional off-road.

Look at my profile picture, It's a Toyota with stock running gear sitting on 18.5 x 44s. It was just a mud toy here in Florida, I stuck 529 gears in it with a Detroit Locker in the rear, and a Detroit true track Locker in the front, and mudded the hell out of it and the only thing I ever broke was a tie rod end. You just need to know which mud holes to stay away from and never turn too sharp while giving it the beans, and you'll be fine. lol. Ps. It rode on a trailer to and from the mud holes. lol.

Both jeeps, but I prefer the larger axles and gears to pull the larger tires

I buy my jeeps to wheel, after they leave the dealer they get lift, tires , winch, and a ton of brush scratches. Then I just find the weak points from there. But hey gotta love a pretty Jeep too

It comes down to skill I used to run 37 on a Dana 30 open front diff in a Jeep Cherokee and watch 44 break all day

Both are amazing but I want the rock crawler with the HEMI swap any day of the week! Update your axels bro! Com’on pimpin!!!

Dropped everything else to be First on Wednesday!

What quick deflators do you use? I’m in the market for one

I want a hoody like Luna’s!!

Brittany rockin' that pink skirt. Oops; meant to say badazz StepChild Jeep!

I'm all about the utilitarian jeep. Function over form for me.

Stepchild is still badass regardless!!! The Oscar Mike is sick too, that’s more less route I’m with my jku stock axles and Dana 44 with 38’s and 1 ton steering upgrades

different flavors for different people. I don't judge people on the things they own. Everyone has their reasons, and i respect that.

2:27 Says it all!!!! And again @ 11:02, LoL

I rather have the stepchild. In my opinion the step child is best looking jeep out there in my opinion…. I just pick up a 2024 Jeep wrangler unlimited rubicon extreme recon. And I can’t wait To start upgrading my jeep and hopefully some day I get to go off road with Brittany and Kevin. That’s would be really cool

I have seen the ones that have Dana 30 go through mud and leave the route alive, I have not seen that they do off road on rocks that is not Marlon's cousin's Jeep sorry for my English if it is not correct I am a new subscriber I come from off road n chill greetings

Every time i see that other Jeep on IG, it's got some model hanging out with it. Dude, spends as much money on models as he does his Jeep!

You guys should go wheeling in New Mexico

I’m more for the functionality, but I also wanted to look cool
