Hi everyone, we wanted to announce a thank you gesture for members here at the JeepGladiatorForum. We're giving away two of our brand new products. An EZ Flip Top set and an 8 Pack of Truck Buddiez ($470 value!)

Our new FlipTop is a system that lets you easily flip your freedom panels back and lock them in for driving, whenever you want. It lets you flip your top back in seconds without having to get out of your car and wrestle with heavy panels. Giving you the best of both worlds, open-air freedom when you want it and full coverage when you need it.

The Truck Buddiez let you add tie down points anywhere along your tailgate within seconds. They drop in and lock in place when you close the tailgate! 5 second install, have a working load of over 1,071 lbs, work with any truck, and fit in your glovebox. Let us know what you think of them!

If you have a soft top or the FlipTop wont work for you we can provide an item of equal value or store credit!

Winner will be announced Feb 28, 2026

I've been eyeing the EZ Flip Top because they'd be nice while on trips away from home and you want to remove the freedom panels. I don't have room to store the panels when I'm on a trip, so I never get the chance to remove them. I'd have to stock up on sunscreen for my bald head, but it's feel nice to feel the wind through my non-existent hair!

The Truck Buddiez are just a good idea overall. We used similar that lock under your hood and trunk lid for strapping kayaks.

I've looked at your fliptop setup several times and like the idea! Just seems like I would open the panels more often with that setup...especially on road trips. The Truck Buddiez would come in really handy when I'm hauling my generator for camping I think...I've not seen them before, but could definitely find a use for them!

Same here, I saw a video at SEMA from [Banned Site] on the Flip Topz, thought it was very cool idea. I always hate figuring out a place to put the freedom panels when I am traveling. Haven’t really seen the Truck Buddiez, but certainly see a number of use cases they would come in handy. Can never have enough tie down points. Cool products! Thanks for sharing.

I think these will make opening the freedom panels easier and more convenient.

I would love to try a set of the flip tops out, it would make it so much easier to get the most use out of the open air experience versus storing the tops in the bag!

i just moved from a soft top sport gladiator to a hard top Rubicon X. my 70 year old wife and I popped the soft top opened any time the temperature was above 68 degrees. I don’t think we will be that open to removing the freedom panels as often as they are heavy and cumbersome. I really want to see these in action, in person. The product as many have said is top notch, no skimping on quality of metal or brand of adhesive tape. It’s just the right idea for my needs. I would really like to be able to share my experience with these to others. As for the truck buddiez, we have a bed cover on the gladiator and I hate chasing the grocery bags to the front of the bed.

I got a set of the EZ flip’s, over a year now and still like them.
Truck buddies seem like a good idea. Would love to try them out.

The EZ FlipTop is the type of product that people say, "hmmm I wish I thought of that". It solves a lot of problems like where to store the panels when you're on the road. You especially don't have to worry about dropping them or scratching them.

The Truck Buddiez is the type of gear that you wish you had for those unforeseen circumstances where you need to tie something down, like a surprise purchase at an antique store. I have a DiamondBack Cover as my Tonneau Cover but I don't always have it on so I would miss out on the tie down points. That's where the Truck Buddiez comes in.

Love the idea of the EZ Flip Top. So many times when we have the freedom panels in the bag in the truck bed, either they are sliding around all over the place or we can't get to them quickly (think a rain shower popping up), because we also have other toys strapped into the bed. I also like the idea of the freedom panels being attached to the hardtop, so that when I use my hoist to remove it the panels just stay intact with the top for storage.

And the Truck Buddiez? You can never have enough tie down points to secure odd-shaped gear or Home Depot finds. And adding them at the tail gate adds convenience and ease to reach!

Thanks @EZ4X4 more stuff I didn't know I needed.
Those flippers would be awesome for trips to the beach. It's 2.5 hours to the coast from our place. That's too long for me to deal with the wind noise anymore. We could store the panels I our hotel room, but what about the sudden rain showers.
These would be pretty awesome. The only problem I see, after the wife sees them on my Gladiator, she'll want a set on her Wrangler.

Those tie downs are slick, using them to hold a gas jug is exactly what I'd use them for. I'm sure it would be one of those things that gets used way more than you originally think they would.

Thanks for the give away and the chance to win.

And yes, I'd use both products in the snow also.
