- Over the past few months, we've spent a considerable amount of time rock crawling with both the Polaris RZR XP1000 Trails and Rocks Edition, and the Can-Am Maverick Sport X RC. In this episode, we catch up with a friend who does some rock crawling with his Jeep Gladiator Rubicon. The Gladiator has a few modifications, like 37" BF Goodrich Mud Terrain KM3 tires, a Clayton 3" lift, Rancho shocks, Warn winch, Rock Slide Engineering powered sliders, and some other equipment. Although built to do some serious crawling, the Gladiator is equally at home on the highway.
We took our RZR XP Trails and Rocks Edition and the Maverick Sport X RC on all of the trails with the Jeep. While both machines do a fantastic job, I think the UTV's made light work of the trails, where the Jeep struggled a bit more. In any case, enjoy the video and be sure to subscribe, leave a comment, and give us a like!

That is one thing I really like about the dynamix on my rzr. I can remove the sway bar and when you bit the trail you just put it in sport mode and it stiffens the chassis right up. Best of both worlds.
Would be cool to test that setup vs a RZR Trails & Rock edition
Y queda más que confirmado que esas pasolas con 4 gomas no se pueden comparar con un verdadero 4x4
I have a Jeep and the Sport XRC. First thing I did to the XRC is threw the front sway bar in the trash. The only reason it it there is government testing. On pavement at 25 mph, they throw the SxS into a full lock turn and it can't roll.
Second, get the dual-rate springs from Shock Therapy. They re-tune the machine where it should be. Soft and cushy on the small stuff.
The XRC can kill the Jeep. It started King of Hammers in 80th place and finished in 30th place only using the winch to pull out other SxS's stuck in front of it.
However, I love my Jeep and use in on cool trails in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Places like Sequoia National Forest.
We do alot of "spirited" driving with the XRC, so I actually like the way it handles on high speed trails with the swaybars attached. If I know I'm gonna crawl, I can just disconnect. I'll check into Shock Therapy's dual-rate springs. Soft and plush on slow stuff with the ability to absorb the big hits would be great!
@@SpeedingMedia It stops the rear from bottoming. You already know about that. They are way more progressive. And I don't advertise for Shock Therapy. I don't know them. But they do good shock work.
I got used to no front sway bar. Don't miss it one bit.
I really like the Maverick Sport. Comfy, nice doors, sealed cockpit, pretty quiet, refined clutching, horrible fuel gauge! Yeah, the only thing I don't like is the fuel gauge calibration. Says a quarter tank and still has 6 gallons left.
I'm always driving around the desert thinking I'm low on fuel.
Put 3/8” quick-lock pins where the bolts on the sway bar links are. Takes 20 seconds to connect/disconnect sway bars.
Thanks...we'll have to check that out. Have a link for some you can share?
Get Well soon Mr Drone...
It survived thankfully!
Es como cuando quieren poner al jimnys con los pesos pesados se queda chico 😂
Se ve muy interesante el video, lastima de las PESIMAS tomas
What tires are those on the Polaris?
They are the stock Pro Armor Crawler XG
This machine is undergoing a transformation and will ultimately end up with some GBC Kanati tires in the near future.
Take the sway bar off the xrc! It pains me to see it stiffer than a cardboard box
It would definitely help. The issue is we trail ride with it ALOT. I just don’t like the way is handles trails with it disconnected.
It's extremely frustrating to follow a Jeep with a UTV!
The Jeep should be the last vehicle thou!
The UTV's are definitely faster
