Fiat offers the Gladiator Overland (the exact thing I planned until Bronco rebirth) at 5k under MSRP! So the question is, is that enough money to change out the front suspension? LOL

I've seen some at $7,500 or better under MSRP. The Mojave trim has huge discounts, considering its equal to a Rubi not a bad deal ...

I looked at a Gladiator but it is not the truck for me. I love the look of them on 37's but it is just too long. I park my Land Rover next to it and the jeep hung out both ends way to far. I will hold out for the Bronco.

That means I could get into one for 10 less than my BD build.... now I am actually wondering if you can change out front suspension s LOL?

The irony is in another thread, guys are talking about swapping the ifs in Bronco for Dana 60s. ?!

If not the Ultimate 60s or some deuces with a drive shaft e-brake. Dah! LOL

I've got to ask Jeff, what do you want to change? I've seen so many aftermarket things I can get for my JL it makes my head spin.

I wouldn't want that solid axle..... Or the heavy doors....

Don't even tell me there's a way! I don't want to know..... *fingers in ears *

I get it bud, so I'll stay mute on the possibility. It's like my dear old Dad used to say, "With enough money anything is possible."

I actually picked up a gladiator rental yesterday to drive around for the next few months. It is cool BUT it also made me very glad I’m not purchasing a Jeep. Coming from a Silverado I feel like this is a cheap truck that is just awkward until you put 37” tires or more. I had a Tacoma as my last rental and enjoyed the hell out of that thing.

Thanks for the reminder.

I drove a gladiator overland for two months while my Raptor was having the timing phasers replaced ... no way. Biggest and priciest POS I’ve ever driven. Handled and rode horrible ... tiny interior and IMO the ugliest looking vehicle of its type (‘truck’) on the road. Couldn’t be cheap enough for me to move off my @60k Bronco Wildtrak build!

Thanks for confirmation!
