This professionally custom-built 2020 Jeep Gladiator started as a
Rubicon Launch Edition and was upgraded by Dakota Customs in Black
Hawk, South Dakota, who installed a new and more powerful
drivetrain. Like the original Hellephant engine, of which only 100
were produced, this Gladiator is powered by an all-aluminum
Mopar-supercharged Hemi crate engine producing an estimated 1,000hp
and 950 lb-ft of torque. From there, an eight-speed automatic
transmission delivers power to Dynatrac Elite ProRock XD60/80 1-ton
axles with ARB Lockers and 5.38 gears. Stopping power is provided
by 1-ton big brakes. This one-off Gladiator sits on an EVO
Manufacturing 3-inch suspension lift with adjustable King shocks,
remote reservoirs, 40-inch Nitto Mud Grappler MT tires and KMC
beadlock wheels with TPMS sensors that work with the factory Jeep
tire pressure monitoring system. The exterior features a RockJock
rear anti-sway bar, PSC Motorsports Hydro-Assist power steering,
Warn Zeon Platinum 12,000-pound winch with wireless remote, Factor
55 clevis hook and synthetic rope, and a DV8 Offroad pivoting spare
tire carrier with bed mount. Upgrades include American Adventure
Labs High-Line fenders and front and rear fender inserts, Baja
Designs LED lighting, Rock Hard 4x4 bolt-in interior front and rear
safety cage, Rockslide Engineering electric side-steps, skid plates
and a rear passenger step. It also has an SPOD Source switching
system for lockers and lights, a twin ARB air compressor onboard
air system and dual-battery setup with in-cab switching and onboard
air-pressure monitoring. The sale includes the original window
sticker and build receipts totaling $229,800, which includes the
new parts and labor. This Gladiator has been sparingly driven since
build completion. 1,434 actual miles. Experian AutoCheck shows
manufacturer safety recall issued on 04/17/2020 (radio software).
