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

[Rusty PW]

So I wasn’t happy with the shock bolts due to the lack of threads protruding past the nut. I did some research and located a longer bolt from a different FCA vehicle that was the same size and thread pitch. I ordered 2 of those and swapped them out today, much better now.

Hope you anti seized the shit out of those bolts. Because it's a royal PITA to cut them out when they freeze up in the bushing.

I did indeed, this isn’t my first rodeo.

I just love a big-ass tire. What can I say. I’m a child.

LOL. Awesome plate!

Finally installed the bed rug, trail rails and molle panels. 3 hours. So not terrible. None of these things are designed to work together lmao.

Almost 80k on the odometer, so well overdue for new spark plugs, and added in a new PCV while I was there. Start to finish about 4 hours. Thankful I had a mini ratchet, made it easier to get the difficult bolts.

Do you also replace the coil packs or just the plugs? My 2018 JLUR is at 94,000 miles and I'm going to do mine soon, too.

Also, what is the OEM Champion plug part number? Is it an irridium plug?

Thanks. It combines with the Jeep plate.

I'm always on the lookout for new tools, that looks like a nice ratchet. If you don't mind who makes it?

It's an AutoZone or O'Reilly's one that's by their checklanes. Bought it years ago.

Edit: can barely read the brand TITAN on the side.

Finished loading up. Heading out shortly.

You know what would look awesome? Some 40's. JK. Have a blast! Already missing the Colorado trails.

Got my ARE topper installed today and love it!

Did the weight of the cap cause a noticeable drop in rear end?
