Its time to install some nice shocks on our Jeep Gladiator! Having the ability to make compression and rebound adjustments is a really nice feature, helping us really fine tune how we want our jeep to ride on road as well as on the trails. We installed the shocks and then made a trip out to Little Sahara State Park here in Oklahoma to check it out and have some fun!
These shocks are from Xtreme Gravel Gear, a shock company based out of New Zealand. They will hopefully be available in the US market soon! These offer high quality oil seals, racing oil, compression and rebound adjustments, finned reservoirs, and fully serviceable and can be re-valved for custom tuning.
www.xtremegrav... The shocks are very well built, with impressive features that work well!
Between these shocks and the hydraulic bumpstops in the front, the jeep is able to really soak up large impacts at higher speed! Being able to get Mojave level performance out of a Rubicon is pretty cool if you ask me...

@jrmotorsports5532 6 месяцев назад

Wohoo! Gladiator content. Currently trying to decide what shocks to go to next after my 4 year old factory fox shocks. Thinking non adjustable Falcons or Bilsteins.

@caryrichardson338 6 месяцев назад

Shocks look great. I love that they address the Rebound adjustment! So many companies don’t. I’m concerned with the upper bushings on the front. They should be offset as much as possible to get the shock body away from the frame rail, otherwise it will hit the frame during articulation. Either that or a relocation bracket for the lower axle mount.

@JKGearandGadgets 5 месяцев назад

I flipped them around so the offset was the correct way

I have a 2023 gladiator with rock crawler 4 1/2 inch lift kit and I run 37 inch tires a few times a month I go deep in the back country with my modified teardrop trailer, I also do long day trips, I owned a bronco raptor which I don’t think anything compares in comfort so being spoiled from that I’m trying to find the proper shock to give me the best possible ride with total adjustability for towing and then when I’m not towing or if I’m up in the mountains on highway speeds on winding roads I want good handling so I having all that adjustability is really nice I thought about the fox 3.0 but that may not be the correct shock? i’ve had the 2.5 shocks on a JL they were good but not totally impressed, I’ve been considering the Falcons with the electronic adjustability it would be nice to be able to fly over the chatter bumps like I did on the bronco raptor ha ha any advice would be great I’m just trying to reach out to as many folks as possible and since rock crawler lift runs tall are having a very high quality shock with all the adjustability would just be great any input advice would be very helpful thanks for the awesome video👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

@brandonjohnson835 6 месяцев назад

Sorry for being the grammar police here but it's truly cringeworthy to hear "dampen" said over and over (in so many videos) when referring to shocks. Shocks are DAMPERS. They DAMP bumps, vibrations, etc. On some, the DAMPING can be adjusted. They DO NOT make anything wet (aka dampen). If you want to dampen something, dampening it with a wet sponge or toil will be much more successful than use a damper.
