Jeep Gladiator parts
Jeep SJ Gladiator by model year
The Jeep Gladiator (SJ) debuted in 1962, sharing its advanced chassis and front-end styling with the new Wagoneer. It was a tough, modern truck available with an independent front suspension on 2-wheel drive models and a variety of bed and wheelbase combinations. The "Gladiator" name was dropped after 1971, but the truck continued as the J-Series (J10/J20) all the way to 1988, powered by a range of AMC inline-6 and V8 engines, including the potent 360 and 401.
Collectors appreciate the J-Series for its direct lineage to the classic Wagoneer and its rugged, unmistakable style. Unlike the later unibody Comanche, these were body-on-frame trucks built for heavy work. Special editions like the Honcho, Golden Eagle, and Laredo are particularly sought after for their unique graphics and equipment, adding a dose of 70s and 80s flair.
Buying Tips
- Rust is the primary concern. Check the floors, cab corners, rocker panels, and the frame, especially around the leaf spring hangers.
- The early "Tornado" overhead-cam inline-6 is unique, but parts are harder to source than for the common AMC 6-cylinder and V8 engines. The 360 and 401 V8s are desirable but check for signs of oil consumption and timing chain wear.
- If equipped with the full-time Quadra-Trac 4WD system, ensure it functions correctly. The viscous coupling can fail, leading to expensive repairs. Check for leaks from the transfer case and differentials.
- Special editions like the Honcho, Laredo, or Golden Eagle carry a significant premium. Verify the truck's authenticity through its VIN and trim tags, as many clones have been created.
