What do you do when you already have too many Jeep projects??? Meet "Crixus."

With a shop full of ongoing projects (Jeep vehicles are never really ever done are they) what's the best thing to do? That's right, add one more to the list! :) Since we sold our 2014 JKU dubbed "Project Teracon," we went looking for another Jeep that could comfortably take us to the various locations where we like to play, camp and explore. Originally we were looking for another JK but at the prices they are going for with high mileage, it just made sense to buy one that was like new with extremely low mileage and from the looks of it, had never been off-road. As luck would have it, we stumbled upon a 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon. Since it has not been modified in any way since it rolled off of the factory floor we knew that there were going to need to be some changes and upgrades made. With the long wheelbase we know we're going to need some ground clearance to improve our breakover angle. SOOOO, the first call we made was to the fine folks over at ‪@teraflexsuspensions‬ for some quality suspension components. We will be installing the 3.5 Alpine Short Arm kit for the suspension. For the shocks, we went with the obvious choice... ‪@FalconPerformanceShocks‬ and to round out our Teraflex shopping list, we decided to give the Nomad Wheels a try. We really like the idea and concept of being able to preset the air pressure for those "air down moments". If we're lifting it, throwing new shocks and wheels on it, what are we going to run for tires you might wonder. Well, we're glad you asked... Another brand that we've run on other builds and had good luck with is ‪@milestartires‬. Although we strongly wanted to go with 40's we began looking at other builds, clearance issues and opted to go with 38's. We want to make sure we can not only get in and out of it without having to get a running start, we also want clearance when we are out on the trails. Rounding the list out, we will be utilizing Genuine Spicer Gear rebuild kits and a 5.13 gear ratio set to help bring the power we will want and need back. In addition to the gearing we will be utilizing the Traildash 3 from ‪@OfficialSuperchips‬ to fully calibrate the system. As Erin states in the video, we have begun to name some of our vehicles and builds. Not being one who normally names my vehicles this does seem appropriate. The Jeep Gladiator has taken the Jeep community by storm much like the introduction of the JK by offering a 4-Door option based on the Wrangler platform. We wanted to set this Gladiator apart from others and the history behind the Gladiator Crixus, is a pretty amazing story. One worth naming our build... "Crixus." We hope you follow along as we make some worthy upgrades and changes to our JT. We will have separate videos related to different parts of this build and of course, some adventure content from our outings. Stay tuned...
