ARB Water Crossing Cover on a Gladiator (ARB4198)

[mog]

I'm posting this NOT as a must-have river crossing item, or an operational review. Useful or not, I have no opinion yet, and no dog in that fight, but feel free to give your opinions here if you like.

I bought this for 3 reasons
I like good deals - and got it as a killer deal on another forum
I like getting accessories/stuff for my JT - I'd guess like 98.4% of everyone here
I have other ARB both hard and soft items and have always been very impressed with their quality.

So, I was hoping that this would fit my Gladiator as very little info online, other than it fits on the front of Toyotas.

The good news is it fits the Gladiator (and therefore a JL) quite well. This is on the front of mine with the stock full-size bumper. I'm certain it has enough room for a winch and low bullbar also.

Ya, not as pretty as on the Toyotas, but certain functioning just as well.

As always the quality of ARB stuff is great. Everything is very well made, with extra thought for strength. Nice neoprene covers over Fastex buckles on the hood to protect it. Mesh on the bottom so it will drain well. And the clear covers even line up with the JT's headlights if you are into night river crossings ? . I like that the cover stuffs into the pouch on the center, so always attached. And that is also a perfect place for a preattached strap for recovery.

I'm confused. What is it supposed to do?

I use that. Prevents having to pullout…..the driveway.

Needing this you must wet your beak on more crossings then Wilt Chamberlain. Wilt I’m told crossed some 20000 bodies of water,

I have needed this product before urgently! Could not get out of the bag fast enough. My daughter is 5.

Getting airflow through your radiator is overrated anyway, right?
