Ok...I just watched a you tube clip of Tony from Dynatrac cutting up a brand new Gladiator Frame to shorten the wheelbase to 118”-120” to make a two door truck...and they were dropping in a Hellcat Hemi into it...

Holy Shit Batman...

Who would cut a 4 door Jeep down to a 2 door and then put a Hellcat motor in it? Some people these days....

I believe the idea was to keep the full bed, but shorten the wheelbase to improve the break over angle...and also go like a bat out of hell...

I get that but after wheeling with the EVO build this weekend, I don’t look at this and get nearly as excited. From a shop owners perspective I look at the practicality of the build and what customers could do with their Jeep. Maybe that’s what I’m having a hard time with. A JK8 with a Hemi would be more feasible than this. Don’t get me wrong I’m sure it’ll be bad ass, I just think they missed an opportunity. I can imagine what it’ll look like when it’s over and that doesn’t really inspire me to buy a set of Dynatrac axles.

I’m with you on this. It might be a cool specialty rig but in the end it’s just specialty. EVO’s new build seems the most practical. That and drop a Hell Cat motor in it and it would be pretty bad ass.

I might be alone in this but I’m not a fan. The V8 is cool but I feel like they should’ve done something different with the body.

I’m with you on this. I get the V8 but, if you look at the list of suppliers, I have a feeling the ultimate result will really defeat the purpose of the Gladiator (at least for me).
