- While the Land Rover is down for repairs (crank sensor has failed) I decided to head out as a passenger in a 2021 Jeep Gladiator Willys. This Jeep is completely stock, factory equipped with 33” Firestone Destination MT2’s and a limited slip rear differential. We head out on a several hour adventure through some moderate off road trails to test the capabilities. The driver intentionally drives slow out of caution.
Wow - impressive for a stock Willys. Could not imagine a Frontier or Tacoma making it as far as you did!
Ain't no way they're making it lol I was thinking the same thing
Just bought a 2023 Gladiator Willys in Bright White, upgraded My 21 2dr JL ,Love it 🤩✌️
I just bought a 2021 Willys gladiator. I can't wait to go play in it.
It’s a ton of fun, and plenty capable
Thanks for showing what the Willys can do. I test drove one this weekend. It was nice, but quite expensive.
Stock set up goes nicely…
Those are some hard trails..!!!
Nice job 👍…
The Willys is a great and underrated package. I have a Mojave with the six speed stick. I traded a Wrangler Rubicon for it. I love the Gladiator versatility 👍👍
That is all driver ability
Thanx for the excellent adventure, I would've gotten lost and ran out of gas and stuck at the beginning. Cheers
Nice video, beautiful gladiator 👍
Gladiators are awesome
Awsome video
Nice video!!
Thanks! It was a fun little trek
Pretty impressive for stock.
It's amazing what stock jeep can do. I have a 22 White Gladiator Willys. Mine is a soft top though.
They certainly work well! Add bigger tires and a lift and it’s a whole different machine.
@@VanIsleDisco I have the factory 31 inch mud terrains still. I've been out in some mud a few times and have managed not to get stuck. Bigger tires and a lift are inn the future. Bumpers lights and a winch first.
Great video! Does this one have the limited slip diff?
Im not jeep bloke, but its great to see everyone out playing in nature.
Now that we've seen it go down that track, any way we can get you to give us a look at it going the other way, same conditions?
Cheers for sharing.
I’ve always wanted to try it the opposite way but never have. Unfortunately though the trail has been cut off by local forestry companies trying to keep us out. I will not be able to try it until a bypass route is created.
I have just got a 22 gladiator willy's what are the limitations to the Willy's since there is no sway bar option and only tru loc on back axle. NO limiations if you are a skilled driver. I am sure you couldn't rock climb in Utah without a sway axle right? :)
It doesn’t have any locker, just Mojave and rubicon does
@@rogerbenitez They have a tru loc LSD.
did it come with the factory lift?
Brave warrior
Little bit of bumper drag
It was mostly the rear hitch dragging. But yes, the rear departure angle is not the greatest 😅
Let's not mention the wheel base on these... I really don't see these as great off road vehicles. More of a city jeep and for looks. It is definitely capable just not great.
@@triple-stan They do fine off road.
@@gilbertnadeau7181 they do alright... would go as far as fine.
@@triple-stan compared to other factory mid size trucks they are.
It just looks like a vehicle trying to be too many things at once…

this jeep wheels base to long not good for off roading
respectfully disagree. that trail looked insane. I was expecting the Gladiator to fail at every turn
