Looking to get one for my wife also and would like to know if the main tube is contoured to the Gladiator's body or just straight?
it is straight, buy it’s tucked in closer to the body than most of the step bars I’ve seen. If I remember, I’ll take a picture and post it tomorrow.

Took Samson to two more S.C. State Parks. Found a few mud puddles, got a little dirty - so the JT got a bath! Tried out the $12 Foam Cannon that I got on eBay to fit my Karcher K5 electric pressure washer

I pulled off the worst mod in the history of JT mods. 200 Lumens a pice for less than $2. Installation time 5 seconds.:like:

I think that the lighting in the back set is poor. I have been thinking of a way to fix this and I have some ideas floating around. This is not my permeant fix but a great way to figure out where to put the lighting and how much is needed. Plus at $4 it did not dig into my beer money:whew:

Took off my Rubi wheels and 33" tires, and installed Overland wheels & 35" tires. Keeps the look close to stock, but gives me a narrow 35" tire that fills up the wheel wells a little better without sticking out any more than stock. I have ran the falkens on my 2500HD for a few years, so i decided to stay with them.

Shout-Out to Sigs Tire in Conover, NC. $249/tire + tax, where discount was $280/tire (before all adding on a lot of fees) + tax.

Yes, so it comes out to ~ 35". I think these falkens are spec'd at 34.8". I was thinking about the new Yokohoma X-at, which in 285/75R18 are spec'd at 35.1". I ended up going with the Falkens because I've ran them a couple of years and like them.

I really dig that...might be the route I go since I really like Overland wheels I already have. I haven't been a huge fan of the tires coming out too much from the body lines.

Does your wife like the Podium steps? My wife is very curious. Thanks.
she really likes them. Made it a lot easier for her to get in and out.
