Not really a TO so much as a with, but a previous TO (ThinSkinz install) definitely helped... Drove down to Houston to pick up our new Golden pup. My wife rode in the back with her, and said as soon as I hopped out to fill up with gas she started scratching at the door. ?.

Put on new Toyo MT 35-12.5, New Quadratec Morphic wheels, Rugged Ridge HD rear bumper, and Magnaflow exhaust. Busy Monday. Taking the cowl guards off and putting on C&D designs cowls with the lights. They are color matched. Just ran out of light and time.

Thanks. No issues. Tires are nice. I changed the front bumper to a mid width and put on black wheels instead of the grey ones.

I actually did this yesterday...but we're all friends here.

I got tired of the white lighting that came installed in my Alu-Cab canopy drawing in bugs from surrounding counties. I gutted all of the factory lighting and wiring and installed amber KC Cylones; interesting side note, Alu-Cab now sells the canopies with combination white/amber lighting :swear:

I bought four of these lights and KC's surface mounts for them as well. I kind of wish that KC sold the lights with no connectors on them because, in order to get a cleaner installation, I have to cut the old bullet connectors off and reinstall my own:

Even though these are surface mounts, they are set up to have the wires exit the back and through the surface they are mounted on. That didn't work for me as they were being mounted on the inside of my canopy doors. So I modified them for the wire to exit out the side:

I also didn't want to use the included mounting hardware and have penetrations through my currently non-leaking canopy doors, so a little 3M VHB tape was just the ticket:

Fabbed and installed new wiring harness for the 2 rear door lights and the 2 side door lights:

Et Voila!

Now I will only have 4000 bugs fluttering around me in camp as opposed to 4017.

Cheers!

I didn’t exactly do it to the Gladiator but an upgrade for the DOG! We have an aging Husky that can no longer jump as good as she could when younger.

So I built a portable travel ramp after looking at all the store bought options at $150 to $200. With a $50 investment this is what I came up with.

it works well so far

My subwoofer amplifier was flopping around behind the rear seat, so I made a better mount with a sheet of 1/8" ABS. Bent it with a heat gun (slowly).

Before (one velcro mount):

ABS sheet:

After (double sided tape from ABS to back netc pocket trim, and four velcro mounts from amp feet to ABS):
