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

[Markpod7]

Got tired of the hinge mount mirrors.

Does this style interfere with the antenna on passenger side?

Uhhhh... you do realize that is still a hinge mount, right?

Yescom canopy (Amazon: $135.00) with fabricated mount (still needs a little black paint on the mounting -used existing holes in the rollbar).

What doors are those?

Very pleased with my newly installed Yakima Overhaul HD rack. Used the track adaptor kit for the Nissan/Toyota and utilized the Toyota parts to complete the install. Very solid. Can't wait to put my 4 person Tepui tent on top and camp this weekend. Next project is a fridge wiring for my Dometic Fridge.

Bit of an update: I spoke with Yakima's Customer Service and determined that the bedrail adaptor kit is not designed to be used with the Gladiator Bed Rails and instead should use the clams. I removed the rack and reinstalled it without the bedrail kit and its very secure, and honestly cleaner looking (too dark for me to take a picture). The bedrail kit is kinda useless when all the realestate on it is used for the rack so I'm saving 110 bucks, and probably selling the rails and making back 250 of my 300 mopar investment. Tent goes on this week.

I am on the fence about my addition tonite. I had great luck with my star decals, they matched my gladiator wording perfectly. The material was the same and the coloring was spot on. I am a big fan of the 1941 references so these fender vent decals were one of my favorites. Unfortunately the material was completely different, and it was a bit of a task to get them on as they had creases in them. The material was way softer than the other decals. Took alot of patience and even some heat to get them perfect. With the colors being off, I feel it may be a bit too much on the front of my JT. I will leave them on for a bit and see if they grow on me.

The doors are my wife's - she chose Rough Country Steel Tube doors and I installed them.

Not really. My shorty one touches it but thats it.

Great looking gladiator...
What is your wheel and tire setup?

Fuel Rampage wheels 20x10 with Nitto Ridge grapplers 35x12.50x20. I usually am conservative with wheels and tires but I decided to through caution to the wind and try something new. So far I am pretty happy. Not too loud and the truck stays cleaner than I thought it would. Thanks man!

This a bit off the topic of your post (I think I agree with you but I'd consider removing the Gladiator on the hood instead of the fender vent.) Can you post a pic of your fender wells from perpendicular to your truck? I love the RSE steps but I'm also going to do a fender chop kit and would to see how the ends of the steps are in relation to the fenders. I'm wondering if they will be flush with the upper part of the fender that will remain after the chop kit is installed? Great looking truck btw! I like the bigger wheels

Thanks. I love the Rock Slides I would never do anything else.

Did you do a write up on your bed wiring with links to parts used? Looks far more useful than the stock bed plug.

No I’ve been too busy/lazy to do a build thread or write up, I’ll send a PM.

Appreciate it... thx!

It looks like the steps line up perfectly with the upper portion of the fender. Thanks for the pic!!

Couldn't get a good angle picture in garage - but added American Flag decals on both sides today. Very nice quality and easy to put on.
