GLADIATOR Defersive: Here's how to protect the long rocker panels on the new Jeep Gladiator

摘要

If ever there was a Jeep in dire need of rocker protection in the form of rock sliders from a company like Rock Hard 4×4, the '20 Jeep Gladiator is it. The Jeep JT has a larger and more vulnerable rocker area than any enthusiast Jeep produced in decades. At a distance of nearly 94 inches from wheel-well to wheel-well, the Gladiator has more body rocker length than the wheelbase of a TJ Wrangler, and understandably so. The 137.3-inch wheelbase on the Gladiator rivals most modern 1/2-, 3/4-, and 1-ton pickups.
