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

[Spyder]

Installed rear bumper today. I have to say that I’ve installed a ton of parts over last weeks and as far as coating. DVS has done the best so far and making sure the product comes without being scratched.

Installing steering stabilizer tomorrow.

What Steering Stabilizer are you installing? did it make any noticeable difference?

Fox 2.0 ats and yeti track brace.
Yes the brace got it where it needed to be with alignment and stabilizer dampened the feeling back to the wheel.

Between the two it’s night and day. I can’t honestly believe how bad some of these drive and feel at highway speeds.
Drives straight and true. Doesn’t pull or push either. Well worth the investment.

I wonder why some are having such a issue. Mine drives like a champ with 2.5" lift and 35's. Haven't done any track bar, tie rod or stabilizer upgrades and don't plan to. Mine rides freakin awesome
Do you have the Max Tow package, I wonder if it has something to do with the different builds.

1/4" black heat shrink tubing "upgrade"!

A better upgrade would be a stubby one,that was the first thing I took off mine. I can't believe they are still putting antennas on these things.

Been there, done that, not impressed. The stock antenna has better reception.

Only true if you use a plastic one or rubber one. If you get one of the aluminum ones it's equal to stock. I never lost reception with mine, on my JK or JT.

Finally was able to get the JcrOffroad half roof rack on. Since it was such an early release there were some slight modifications needed to make it work. Thanks to Chris Bush there for his help.

A nice roof rack but $$$ for the small version. I would have expected half of it when I see the price tag for their bed rack, which is significantly larger/more material.

I can say its well built, better than some I have looked at. Stay tuned as I use it over time.

Go to advance Auto, that's where I got both of mine. Read on the package and it will say aluminum, around $24 for a stubby. That's the one I used on my JK and I just bought one for the JT when I bought when I got it. The rubber ones and plastic one suck you can feel the difference

I have the Rydonair which is touted widely on this forum. Looks nice enough but the reception is spotty. I’m sure it is dependent on location, but I am more rural so stations can be some distance away.

Yes, please share your experience. I am looking for a bed rack, a small roof rack and a RTT, and that gets pricey pretty quickly ... But I also don't want to buy cheap stuff that just rusts away.

Added the black lug nuts today.

 

[Digger70]

Added some retro Scrambler decals and Rubi take-offs all from ebay

I installed my Bartacts today. For those of you considering them, I highly recommend finding a 7yo power-lifting contortionist with the grip strength of a silverback gorilla. Otherwise allow for a full day with 2 people, 9 beers, 1 bottle of whiskey, and a litany of profanity.

PS: F*ck Velcro. And f*ck that g*******n armrest.

Yikes. That doesn't sound promising, considering these are the ones that I was leaning towards haha.
