Fastest Truck in Canada? - Demon Jeep Gladiator Rolling on Dana 60/80 Axles and 38s
Get ready to witness a true work of automotive art in action! In this video, the Ginger and his team of wellness experts showcase a heavily modified Jeep Gladiator that's been transformed into a crazy street machine. With an AMW4x4 Demon Engine Swap (840HP), this Gladiator packs a serious punch under the hood. But hey... that's not all, this jeep has been equipped with Dana 60/80 axles, a custom Teraflex suspension and 38" Nitto Trail Grappler tires. Inside, custom leather seats and dash panels bring the feels. This Gladiator is designed to turn heads and make babies cry.

AMW4X4 does a fantastic job. A local to me Jeep mod shop, JKland, does their swaps. I was there last week grabbing a tazer jl mini and they had a demon swap kit in their showroom. Even the stand to support the powertrain during shipping is incredibly high quality. Really wish I could afford to do it, but my ecodiesel will have to do for now.

@@EPIC-4WD I mean I love it, the torque is fantastic as is the fuel economy. However there comes that point in the powerband where it sure would be nice to have a boatload of horsepower take over. As crazy as it is to say this, I just wish we here in the US we're a bit more free to mod diesels like you Canadians. A "weight loss program" on these ecodiesels really peps them up from what I hear/have seen.

I weekly watch this video with The Ginger team! They are amazing! Thanks for the work. I’d wish to see total mods; like inner fender parts removed, front and real bumpers changed, but those even the owner could do it. What would be the average wage for such engine swap(Canadian$)?!
I love these videos. You guys do great work. What do you do with the engines / transmissions that come out for the AMW power plants?

Do the hemi conversions use the stock rubicon transfer case, and if so how well does it handle the massively increased power over time? Awesome builds, your work is top notch, and entertaining crew, lol.

Mojave with a functional hood scoop would be a step up.

The fact that someone would spend 10,000$ on huge heavy axles just to run 40s is insane to me. For the money that's dumped into a keep you could have a rock bouncer with 45's.

Hey Rob... first you should take out the Mopar lift and get a proper lift with all the geometry correction brackets... and some suitable springs/shocks. Give us a call if you want some further input.
Kind of wondering why the heavier Mojave chassis wasnt used for this?
With a 392 do you keep the spare wheel? very nice build boy's 👌🇦🇺
@EPIC-4WD

The normally aspirated engine conversions do not use/need the auxiliary coolant tank under the bed, so yes a spare could still fit there. With the Hellcat/Demon that would be a no.
I’ve got a question are those axles narrowed for the jeeps or are they strait out of a super duty
Can you rock this with stock dana 44s? Trusses and RCVs?
Which letter kit did you use on tailgate? Is this transmission the same as the one with the 426 normally aspirated motor?
@EPIC-4WD
Жыл бұрын
The tailgate badge is from AMW. The Transmission is different than the 426 package.
Okay, I know it probably won't work with the Demon swap because of the extra coolant reservoir where the spare tire was. What if with the Hellcat swap you "trimmed" the truck box/bed so that the departure angle was basically the same as the approach angle? Crazy you say? Why you ask? There would only be room in the box for a spare tire, standing... or your lunch box you say? True but wouldn't it look cool?

Considering the swap itself is 70k USD, this would be substantially more. When you take into account the axle upgrades (22kish) and the purchase price of the rubicon. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if this is a $150k Gladiator.

I'm guessing it's the "used" 2023 Gladiator Rubicon on White Rock's website with only 21km on it, listed for $279k CAN, or approx. $210k USD
