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

[KX L]

Cracked the windshield. And it's growing. No stone chips or anything else along the crack.

And that's why you don't do ducks---never know what trouble they get into when you aren't looking.

New tails with the backup booster bar.

Installed locking hood latches. Was a quick and easy job and makes me feel a little better making her more secure. (We had somebody in our driveway a few nights back trying door handles randomly. He worked his way through the neighborhood apparently.)

I did like how clean they looked. I got them on Amazon:

Seemed to be a nice price too.

Thanks. Saved it for my next Amazon order. That list is getting pretty long.

Hah, hah. Most welcome. My Amazon wish list of Gladiator accessories is ridiculously long as well. With a lot of contributions from folks here in this Gladiator forum.

I have the Rugged Ridge hood locks. Been happy with them. Had them since 11/22.

Also very clean.

My biggest concern with key-locking hood latches are, what if some schmutz (yes, that's a real word) gets in the lock cylinder ? I'd have to have a set that has dirt/dust covers.

Are my concerns warranted ? Probably not, but I still got 'em....

If you don’t have the Oem trail cam, I highly recommend the Bolt hood lock as a better alternative. Uses your jeep key and has a cover to keep it clean.

Added a Teraflex Nexus 2.2 stabilizer mainly because I was getting a slight, occasional shimmy in the steering wheel. Not death wobble at all, but I started with the easiest to install solution. The stock stabilizer had 22K miles with 37" KO2's. I removed it and it was relatively easy to move. Maybe I get lucky and it fixes it. Next place I will look is rebalancing the tires even though I had them balanced a few weeks ago. Everything else seemed tight. Checked all the bolts on tie rod, etc. When removing the stabilizer the bolts on the tie rod didn't take much to break loose.

On my High Altitude Gladiator I got new wheels & tires. Rubicon wheels from ebay and MT Baja Boss AT’s.
