First Offroad Test | 2021 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon Build | 2" Mopar Bilstein Reservoir Lift | 35" KO2s

Описание: A little bit of a different video here from Departure Outdoors! Today we are diving into the first few mods we have just done to our 2021 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon; ultimate goal is to build our perfect Overland rig. Not only are we going to show and talk about the mods, we are also going to put them to the test (somewhat) by taking the Jeep out to one of our favorite local trails near Divide, CO, in Lower and Upper Rule Creek Spur Trails. Together these trails become something of a 2.5 to 3 hr long trail that is both beautiful with lots of water crossing opportunities, tall green pine trees to drive through, and breathtaking views of the famous Pikes Peak, but also there are some interesting obstacles / terrain to navigate through. Its always a fun time and we actually covered this trail in the past and that was one of our more popular videos, but that was a long time ago, so we are excited to break the seal on our new Gladiator and get it out on the dirt for the first time!

If your concerned at all that we are deviating from our normal videos that are generally more scenic and focused on capturing the trail and the journey vs talking and slice of life stuff; dont worry, we are definitely going to be doing more of those types of videos, its just not often we get time enough to do those sorts of videos with our current full time jobs / obligations. We have many videos planned for this year though (maybe a return to the San Juans even for more trails we missed), but also we have more Moab videos to publish in the near term as well!

Thanks all those who support our videos and have been so positive!

Any questions, please feel free to reach out!
