Jeep Gladiator Truck Overlander on 40 Tires by EVO Off Road Testing at Moab Easter Jeep Safari

- It was about 2 weeks ago to the day that Cindy and I first laid eyes on EVO Manufacturing's brand new and bone stock, Jeep Gladiator Sport. And it was just yesterday, here at the Moab Easter Jeep Safari that we finally got to see it completely transformed and into the beast of a truck that it is today. In addition to running an EVO 6" coil lift on short arms, King shocks, Dana UD60 axles and 40" Nitto Trail Grapplers mounted on KMC Machete beadlocks, this JT pickup is also wearing EVO bumpers front and rear, rocker guards a bed rack complete with roof top tent and every overlanding doodad they think to put on it. In this video, you'll get to see what this awesome pickup looks like now and take a walk around it with Mel Wade to get a close up look at all it's goodies. Oh, did I mention that we also got a chance to take it out on it's very first shakedown run? Yup, you'll get to see some of that too and we hope you enjoy what you see.

“BORING” That was hilarious!! That rig is just amazing and it was just walking up everything. Great job by EVO!!!
LOL - glad you enjoyed it :)
A Fiat with Dana 44's running 40's? No thanks. Even chromoly axles aren't going to help.
You can really hear that trailer groaning, and creaking when the Super Gladiator is backing off it. That thing is a beast!🇺🇸💪
I just love Mel. Such a humble guy and a very genuine person. Didn’t over do the build kept it simple and I thinks it’s perfect! One amazing gladiator very well done!. Another great video guys thank you!!
Absolutely awesome! Very inspiring. Once again, thank you. great build, great source for what's to come in my future.
Amazing how much the lift and 40s improve the breakover and rear departure angles on the Gladiator. What a beauty of a truck!!
Lift and bigger tires make a world of difference.
I hope it shows up at Overland Expo West next month in Flagstaff....👍🇺🇸
A lift and 40’s on anything would improve the breakover and departure angles :)
Ok, so I’m not sure how to describe the level of cool that this vehicle is. It is wicked cool. Thanks so much for making the video I loved it.
Awesome, so glad that you enjoyed it :)
Awesome, the T case was the only info I haven’t seen info about before this video. Thanks for sharing.
Keep them coming Eddie and Cindy.... Every time Your New Video Pops Up.... Tons of Jeep Fans get excited! 😃
LOL - we're humbled that anyone would watch our videos and enjoy them.
Mel and Lisa, thanks for sharing your build with us! Freaking awesome! Dream overland build for sure! Thanks for going out and shooting this for us Eddie and Cindy!
It was our pleasure :)
This video couldn't come fast enough! I checked everyday, LOL!! So badass!
LOL - sorry for taking so long to get it out to you :)
Dude!! That was some smooth crawling. Lift and tires look perfect for that wheelbase! Thanks for sharing!
So happy to hear you enjoyed the video :)
Seriously crazy! There's no rig I'd rather have in the world more than this Gladiator!!!!! Great build EVO!
It turned out amazing.. and like someone said those 40s look like the gladiator should come from the factory 👌🏻
Totally agree
Probably was part of the stealth plan but FCA still needs to be ( California communist )compliant
Go New Places lmao
Leave stock even, Too high for use as uberX vehicles' ingress/egress.
I’ve already talked to them on the phone. Next fall I’ll be dropping off a diesel sport S for their magic sauce. With a 250 mile range off road, THAT will be an overland right.
Next step is going over the right bump so that the emissions stuff falls out and a tune. Gonna be a long year of waiting haha
That is awesome. Great work guys !!!
Looks amazing! Love the way it handles those trails & the flexing, wow. Nice job Mel!
Not too shabby for being so long :)
Again thank you for such first cabin content. No matter what kind of vehicle a person has , their are such great Ideas in this video to learn and borrow from.
Awesome! So glad to hear you've been enjoying our videos :)
...what breakover angle. Another informative entertaining vid from Eddie and Cindy. Thanks!
So glad you enjoyed our video :)
Thanks for sharing, Mel like you is very enjoyable to listen to/watch.
Awesome, thanks :)
woow awsome rig built, the ultimate overland Jeep love the JT Evo style. thnx for sharing
Glad to hear you liked what you saw :)
Totally worth the wait to watch this thing crawling around Moab. Excellent filming as always! 😎👍
So glad to hear you enjoyed it.
Awesome! Just absolutely incredible! GREAT job!!!
It really is an amazing build :)
Just awesome.. can't wait till we get these. Some quality driving there too!
Great project guy's. Shout out to Mel and EVO CREW and Eddie and Cindy!
Thanks for sharing this with us. 40s and axles a must on that rig. Looking at doing it on my JLUR. Tired of dragging over stuff. 37s are nice but not enough. One of our club guys just did the axles and 40s this week. Can't wait to drive it. Have fun be safe! Heading to Moab this Saturday!
Safe travels to you and we hope you have a great time out here.
what a beautiful build! good job guys
Excellent video! Loved watching this new truck ❤️
I have a feeling EVO is going to be VERY, VERY, busy this year!
LOL - I have a feeling you're right :)
Can I buy stock now?
Killer build Mel! Now I have to rethink my whole life!! More than Jeep.... it's Gladiator.... WAYALIFE! 🏜🤙🏼
LOL - it really is an awesome build and one that I think a lot of people have been inspired by :)
Your channel and you are great. After watching you for a while I bought a Gladiator. It's still stock but I'm enjoying the hell out of it. Thanks for a great channel I watch all your videos.
Saw the EVO gladiator when they passing through Flagstaff. Pictures don't give it justice. This thing is awesome.
SUCH. A. BEAST! I am loving the look of these modified Gladiators.
Built up like this, they really are impressive.
"Its all bolt on" Those are the words I was not expecting to hear. All I have to say though is I want one, and excellent job Evo.
I’m about to start watching this video and I already know it’s awesome!!!
LOL - you're too kind :)
That thing is amazing, nice job.
I started following your videos when I bought my wife a JLUR. But I started WAITING for your videos when EVO started this build. Great job on the channel and content, keep em coming.
Thank you. We're so glad you enjoy our channel :)
Thanks for putting this together. It really showcases what a proper-focused built JT can do. I especially liked the explanation of using the standard T-case vs. that of the Rubi T-case. EVO looks like they have put a lot of thought into functionality with this new platform and I look forward to seeing their entire product line. Seriously good filmography by letting us SEE what it can do without to much commentary. Keep it up man.
We're so glad to know that you found our video to be informative.
Super cool vid thanks for the fun experience!!
Awesome, so glad you liked it :)
I'm in love with that jeep. You should call it the eighth wonder of the world! Nothing on the planet like it.
LOL - at least, not yet anyway.
Once again threw my hat so far away for you guys that I can’t find it anymore . Bravo and well done 👍
LOL - thank you :)
Wayalife My pleasure Sir and best wishes from half way across the world in Kuwait 🇰🇼 with lots of sand .
Yes, yes, yes! Another video from you guys. Keep it up!
LOL - glad you're enjoying what you see.
Beautiful well thought out build!
It really does look great :)
Looks great, Guys!
That is one bad ass looking beast of a truck. Great job EVO! Been looking forward to this video.
Sorry for not being able to get this to you sooner.
@@wayalife No need to be sorry.
Great video, like the part about the 2.6 T/C and the 5.38 gears. I was thinking about upgrading my T/C to the Rubicon 4.0. But I'm more of an Over Lander type. Thanks for all the info you provide. Keep them coming.
Hope to get more out to you as soon as we can.
Once again another great informative and fun to watch video! I'm hoping to transfer my job to Henderson, NV sometime and hook up with all you great people!!! Keep the awesome videos coming! Thanks again!
Glad you enjoyed the video and it'd be great to hook up with you out on the trail.
Dang man.
That is a piece of work. Fearsome.
What an amazing build. I NEED ONE!
Man, you and me both!
Wow. The tires and lift transform the look. Looks awesome.
It really is amazing :)
Shut up and take my money!! That thing is badass! I do agree about the transfer case ratios as well.
LOL - I know! If only I could get my hands on a Gladiator!!
Gorgeous...would love to have a factory Hemi option like in the GC Trailhawk. Beautiful rig, well done!
Wow, way to rock out with that Gladiator. That is on badass Jeep.
Glad you enjoyed the video :)
Absolutely awesome.
Thank you kindly!
The proportions are prefect; the wheels/tires, length, height, all of it! Makes those 40's look like 35's! lol
Like it was meant to come that way from the factory.
Yay!! was so excited for this video!
Awesome - glad we could bring it to you :)
Beautiful truck, great build!
It really is and we're glad you liked what you saw :)
Your videos never fail to impress man!
Thank you, we're flattered that you'd say as much :)
That is one awesome rig 👍👍👋
Wow great info I think I’m getting EVO thanks for the video
Glad you found the video to be informative.
this rig is a beast awesome build i think i found my new project..
Awesome! Keep up the good work!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed what you saw.
Wow! What a beast!! 😍
if you look for the definition of ¨badass¨ it shows a picture of this gladiator! hell yeah
LOL - awesome
Awesome video!!
So glad you enjoyed it :)
OK OK now you have made my life harder, was going to trade my H2 in for a JL but now seening this...dude, now I'm torn, did great on the trail. Much much better than stock of course. As always great video. Thanks.
Thank you. We're glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
Waaaaaaaaaaant ! Great video man, Gladiators are so cool!
I really like the look of this Jeep. It's so awesome.
It really is sweet and how we plan on building ours up as well :)
Great time in Moab. Glad I got to meet you and chat at Dixie 4 Wheel Drive's shop. That place was super busy. We had an awesome first time experience at the Easter Jeep Safari (Lord willing it won't be our last). EVO's rig is beautiful. Too bad it has to be crushed at the end of the year. Safe Travels Brother and have a Blessed Easter!
It was a pleasure meeting you and glad to hear you had a great time out in Moab!
What a bad ass beast!!! My wifey and I love your content and videos!!! We will get our JL Rubi soon and can’t wait to be members of the awesome Jeep family! Cheers!
Awesome and thank you. We're so glad to hear you enjoy our videos :)
The lift and 40" tires completely change the look and proportions of this truck.
NOW it looks like a real Jeep.
Totally agree :)
That rig looks great, and performs as well as it looks.
It really did awesome
Wow! Mel did a great job and is definitely an industry leader!
Yes he is :)
"Can’t wait to get ours" - soon? Awesome video, Mel is so cool!
LOL - as if there would be any doubt :)
@@wayalife We love our JKU but even my wife keeps saying "I really love that truck." Really excited to see what you and Cindy do with yours!
@@wayalife On order yet? Sport or Rubicon? Strip out your JL and transfer the front axle over......
Very nice set-up! Very clean looking also! Great job. Need a shop out here in Midwest!
Glad you like it!
Awesome jeep truck man
The Gladiator is going to be a huge seller, particularly here in South Africa where overlanding is 95% of what we do with our vehicles. Glad the shake down run went well so now you guys can go do a three week overland trip with out putting it on a trailer....hahaha. Jokes aside that is a great build with the usual Mel Wade/EVO attention to detail and quality
LOL! The irony is pretty funny :)
This 100% flipped my anti JT mentality. I now love this truck! Good stuff as always! Will I be trading in my JKUR..........no, but never the less this is a damn fine rig!
LOL - I think people will have a hard time not liking this truck :)
Beautiful Jeep/truck.
Couldn't agree more :)
Can’t wait to see your JT Build
Hoping to start on it sooner than later :)
That thing is massive!
A beast for sure :)
Wow that turned out nice!
Sure did :)
I want one! 👏🏻 Nice job!
Thanks Rachel, we really want one too :)
I think I heard those rocks crying out for mercy. Very nice I like it.
LOL - too funny :)
man that thing is a mountain goat man. I really need one now. and with EVO's kits it would be fast to get that built out.
Hi, Greetings from Ireland. Absolutly love your page, helped get me through a cold dark winter over here. Already organising a trip to Utah. Whats a regular day out for you will be a lifetime trip for me, so I'm hoping we will be able to meet up for a ride, that would be bloody awesome, anyway whoever said boring needs to be draged through the desert naked lol, that's not a Jeep ,that's a rock eating monster, fantastic and well done to to Mel and the rest at EVO. Cheers Dave
Dave Mason that’ll be a fun trip!
LOL - it'd be great if we could meet up someday and yes, it is an amazing Jeep.
@@wayalife , Tks Eddie, working on my waypoints at the moment to try include Colorado and Nevada but mostly Utah. Flights are not as expensive now so probably looking at 6000dollars, 2wks, 2per. inclusive. going to try to time it for the Easter Safari. Stay safe out there, cheers Dave
Been waiting for the turn out. Looks and performs damn good! I’ll take 3! Lol
LOL - I could do that.
Great video thank you!
So glad you had fun watching this :)
superb!!!!
We have one on order. can not wait to start the build!
Awesome
Excited to upgrade mine now very cool
Awesome :)
Now that's ground clearance baby!
Can't wait to see what you'll build soon. What a beast, nice to be a vendor.
Need to get our Gladiator first - dying over here :)
@@wayalife Yeah I might be waiting on the 80th anniversary Wrangler JLU LOL
Looks awesome and reminds me of rescue one from discount tire.
Well, Mel built that one too :)
I washed my truck and trailer at that car wash only a week ago. I’ll be back in Moab on Monday to finish a project we are working on. Didn’t want to deal with the craziness of Jeep Safari this week.
God i cant wait to buy one. That was awesome
You and me both!
That thing is sick!
Couldn't agree more :)
That’s is my favorite JT by far !!!!!! 👍🇳🇱❤️🇺🇸✌️
I agree and mainly because it's something you can actually buy all the parts for.
I’ve watch this video bout 20 times the thing is a beast
So glad you enjoyed the video :)
Amazing!!!
What a monster!!! Yeah baby!
You know it!
The only thing i would add is the liner cuz i dont like scratches on the bed , and probably a clear wrap to protect the paint!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That is an awesome awesome awesome build guys. Perfecto mundo
It really is sweet!
