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

[Edub]

While I'm not sure about the Maxims 3 by itself, the complete package looks sharp.?

I've always seen the Maximus 3 chase bar as a platform to build off of. Its solid and well put together. The hard-to-find Lego piece that's lets you continue your hobby of emptying every pocket.

I really like that style of method wheel. If they offered it in a bronze finish, I would’ve got that over my 701s. Maybe they’re 703’s. I forgot what I have v

Looks great on your rig!

I have the 703 in bronze. Love them.

thanks, I love them. they are Fuel Covert
Fuel Off-Road Covert Candy Red w/Black Ring (tirerack.com)

I love the way they look but I will say the color does not hold up. while they look fine in the photos, they have turned into a sunburnt pinkish hue. I guess they look fine from a distance but the closer I look at them, the worse they get. Since I got these, they also started to offer it with a bead lock.

Darn, the red looks so good too. Hopefully, you can find another option with color that holds up better.

Molle Panel Systems - Overhead Molle Panel installed
The only note that I would make, and only because I'm a neatfreq, is I installed some 3m doublesided cushion tapeto avoid the metal on metal contact. I'm very pleased with the results and it only took me about 20 minutes to install by myself.

Love the way it looks, and 20 minutes isn't bad, looks like a fun install.

Finished my “Red Neck MacGyver” quick attach/detach board/ski rack for the top of my Lomax. Had the Thule pads already. She ain’t too purdy, but she’ll daggum git it dun!

Got my new Clayton track bars to replace the Core 4x4 models. Can see here how the joint on the frame side of the front bar is at a much straighter angle, just like stock (Core 4x4 on the left).

I did the steering box adjustment.

WHAT AN U BELIEVABLE IMPROVEMENT!

the jeep should have always drove like this.

i cleaned up the metal and wire brushed the threads to get the paint off of some of them before heating it and making my adjustment.

i did just shy of a 1/4 turn. The immediate improvement is wild. I may or may not adjust to the full 1/4 before re painting it. I want to drive it a bit more first.

i also ended up doing my wifes JLU. Found that she had the aluminum box still. So i did a 1/4 turn on heres. Absolutely amazing improvement.

Solenoid looks tight. What brand is the solenoid and fuse? I have the Warn disconnect and believe the solenoid that comes with the kit is 175 amps. Haven't put the winch to max draw. However, I don't believe 175 amps is enough. Really like your set up.

FYI: The Warn solenoid I had didn't have a problem with the amp draw but did give up after 20 years of use. Not as expected the trigger wire bolt cracked loose. On my JT, I just "rolled my own" winch solenoid kit.

I started removing my skid plates and installed an upgraded MetalCloak cross member. The new skid plates should be finished by the weekend or whenever I have time.

How did you heat it? Not sure if a soldering iron would work or not.

Nothing all that new or original, but since I back into my garage every day I wanted to have a really good view. The LED's on the Gladiator are pretty good, but these Oracle LED Reverse Lights should made a big difference. The wiring harness made it a breeze.

I got my extra wiring and disconnect in the mail today, my power wire for my winch was about 19” too short. I wanted a way to be able to disconnect it from the battery if need be so this came as a perfect solution. Also finally figured out how to connect my Homelink with my garage door opener after 6 months of trying ?

Well it's a solid method and you know when it's got power or not. with a second advantage you can have a quick solid jumper cable mount. Same way I ran on my XJ and have one by winch on my LJ.

I don't care about the Backup lights... I just wanted to say Go Ducks!
