Bobbed Jeep Gladiator Rock Crawler | JOOSE Build Breakdown

Meet JOOSE, our custom bobbed Jeep Gladiator built with one thing in mind: serious rock crawling. In this video, Bond walks us through the entire build, breaking down the suspension, drivetrain, armor, and all the modifications that make JOOSE one of our most capable off-road rigs.


From the shortened bed to the suspension setup, we're covering what went into this build and why we chose each component. Check out the full parts list below for links to the products used on JOOSE and everything you need to start planning your own Jeep Gladiator build.
