What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

[Syndula]

Installed an ARB twin compressor on a Grimm offroads bracket. Really enjoying the hidden install and the ease to get to the on-board air without deafening everyone in the cab.

Saw someone selling their RR snorkel for 200 ducks, so I decided to snap it up because I've always liked the look.

Got it painted for another 75 ducks and test fitted it, I dig it!

Now I need to relocate my Voswitch box to the driver side, so that means that I'll also need to move the ARB compressor to just over the fuse box. I don't mind the re-config, I like the look enough to go through with it.

That is a hell of a deal. That is my choice once I pay off all these other mods I've done.

I’ve started wiring our new Gladiator to be towed behind our motorhome. This weekend I’ll install a new aftermarket bumper that has attachment points for the tow bar assembly.

Not something to the gladiator specifically and also not really something worth its own post anywhere, but since I moved the spare to the interior on the TJ I decided to make use of the back seat.

Not particularly pretty welds, but good practice. And now I have some extra seating for the garage. Or more likely, my office. Just a fun evening time killer.

Was getting the AUX switches not available message at startup and ESS hadn't worked for months, so I decided it was time to change batteries. I swapped in a new H7 with one that had 150 more CCA and changed out the AUX14 battery to a ES-TX14 AGM powersports battery with the same size and CCA rating.

Other than not having the built in threaded studs, the batteries are an exact match for each other. Plus, the powersports battery was only $95 vs. the $160 they were wanting for the AUX14.

Something similar to what I did with my JT seat but just used some wood and no wheels.
So what did I do to JT today well. Actually a few days ago. Got new 8oz bottle of anti-sieze ordered lift kit, Lift kit arrived. So yesterday drove down got set shocks, front axle truss, control arm skids. Now to install them and front locker. ?

got the new QRC full width bumper from @Quadratec ... ordered 11/1/22 at 5pm and was delivered 11/3/22 at 2 pm .... very fast ... packaging was perfect ... bumper is just what i wanted ... Kaylee @Quadratec was super ... stock plastic bumper is a challenge, seem like it's weight is in the MANY bolts and screws .... i have eye problems so it to my wife and me about 2 hrs to remove and take apart the stock bumper .... that's done and today for the QRC install

Well (yesterday) Started the day off with getting the tint done, then I went through the prick ass job of installing my Armorlite flooring and then finished the afternoon off with the loop delete on the exhaust, nice change in exhaust tone and feels like it has some more pep in it's step

@Minty JL how do you like the Armorlite flooring? I have thought about maybe using that this time instead of my slush mats... two big lab mixes produces A LOT of hair on the carpet areas that are not covered by the slush mats. Thought the slush mats have been great to clean up beach sand, dirt, mud, snow, dog hair etc.

Culmination of a few changes. So not just what I did today. 2020 Sport S Max Tow. Rubicon hood and wheels, two piece grill (not sure what it came off of), new badging.

 

[Xwelder]

added new shoes today

37’s with no lift? I’m wanting to do 37 with a 1.5 level on my Sport. Trying to decide if it will work

It runs aa is depending on your wheels. It bottoms out on dips and bumps.
Im adding a MC 2.5" front level and 1.38 rear spacers soon.
Biggest thing to remember is shocks and bump stops

Not the best pictures, but I just installed some Rockhard 4x4 sliders.
Took about an hour. Very easy to install, perfect quality, and secured to the truck better.

41.22 slider and bulletproof locking hitch pin.
