Traded the Wagon for a Quartermaster

[Emil]

I'm not 100% certain but the turn radius does seem to be larger than the wagon

Grenadier Station Wagon (pre‑2026): ~13.5 m turning circle / 2026: ~5 % tighter turning circle ~12.8 m.

Quartermaster Pickup (pre‑2026): ~14.5 m turning circle / 2026: ~5 % tighter turning circle ~13.8 m

Can anyone confirm that the Koni Raid shocks that fit the Wagon will also fit up to the Quartermaster.
The reason I ask is because the QuarterMaster seems to have a slight "Jitter" when hitting bumps/road imperfections that the Wagon doesn't.
I've driven a Quartermaster with a Dirtbox canopy/RTT on it and the jitter was still slightly noticeable.
At this time I don't have any intention on Lifting the truck, Just trying to maximize off pavement ride quality with a larger body shock.

I am using the Radflo shocks and they are standard length. They are universal and have been extremely happy with them.

Do you think they provide an overall better ride over all road surfaces?

Thisy are adjustable so you can dial them in to your driving. I love them and ride has been fantastic on and off road.

I was really tempted to get the Quarternaster but in the end I bought a Trailmaster as I already have a a Rubicon Gladiator and they are pretty comparable spec wise. So I kept the Glad and am
Getting rid of my 2005 F-250 crew cab diesel since I no longer need to tow a 30’ gooseneck or large loaded gay wagon’s anymore.

When the Gladiator nears end of life. I’d be looking at a quartermaster.

Just curious, I was able to go to 35” tires with the Gladiator on a stock suspension with no rubbing at all but they designed it that way with higher fenders and deeper wells. Would like to hear if you can do the same with the Quartermaster.

If you choose a narrow 35 and keep the wheel offset close to the factory spec of 55mm then 35" tires fit without rubbing. The Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT in 255/85R17 and the Toyo RT Trail in 35x10.5 or 35x11.5 are the best narrow options for 35s.
