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

[WakesurfVT]

Got naked in Vermont! Plus...you gotta have a Honda Ruckus (and buddy with one) because it’s SUMMERTIME!

*Sidenote – did you know that it is legal to be naked in the state of Vermont? You are just not allowed to disrobe in public but if you disrobe in your own home or your car and then exit naked you’re free and legal to do so! https://statelaws.findlaw.com/vermont-law/vermont-indecent-exposure-laws.html

Added a front camera yesterday. I used the pigtail from Z Automotive and had a camera. Ran it through the clutch cable plug. The camera does not show the bumper but I was just trying it out. I have ordered another camera from Amazon. Couldn't bring myself to spend 179.00 for a camera. I can make my own mount when the new one comes in.

Added a skyjacker dual steering stabilizer kit today. Kept the stock max tow stabilizer since it’s a flip kit and it didn’t interfere. Couldn’t find anything online about anyone running triple steering stabilizers so decided to give it a go. Steering seems slightly more taut around town but will report back. Wasn’t experiencing anything dramatic but a recent trip on a gusty day along the highway required considerable wheel tending so wanted to give this set up a go. Easy 1 hour install and only $80.

Your power steering system now has to fight against 3 dampeners. I would strongly advise against doing this. The stock stabilizer is sufficient for a properly aligned and tightened setup, larger tires included. That “firmer” feel is also felt by the stock steering system, which just isn’t designed to anticipate that resistance. That steering brace from synergy is probably something you should have if you plan to keep it this way.
There’s a reason no one else runs that setup. Good luck friend!

Well this arrived today , will be installing it tomorrow. Ordered it from wrecklessmotorsports coupon code “upgrade” saves you 34.99. Has anyone install the falcon 2.2 steering stabilizer? Did you notice any difference?

Installed Mopar bed rails and Rockymount Loball bike fork holders. Fiancé's 27.5 wheel medium bike fits, my 29 inch large bike sits on the tailgate. I'm fine with it as it allows me to throw stuff in under the bike.

Have it and love it. When on the 'firm' setting you can certainly tell it on local roads, but its great for the highway. I keep it on the medium most of the time unless I'm going to take a longer highway trip. The ability to flip it in about 10 seconds is super nice.

Thanks for the heads up and for looking out bud! I’ll pull the stock and try the dual set up.

Mopar 2” lift, 37 KO2s, Hauk badge, and KC and RC lights.

Did you have any issues taking off the jeep tailgate badge? I want to add the gladiator badge to mine too.

Finished up the RTT, now that the diamondback HD and FrontRunner bars are installed.

Note: annex has a floor that can be zipped in

I got rid of the amber corner markers, added some KC Gravity driving lights, covered the yellow logo with gray, and replaced the fog lights with a set of matching KC’s.

Bought the Badlands Apex 12000lb winch for my Rugged Ridge Spartan bumper, now the waiting game on everything to arrive. Badlands Apex was sold out at every Harbor Freight for 200 miles, but they let me have the discount and the manager let me use his employee discount put me out the door at $400 with the 2yr warranty. I'm happy, but I hate waiting on parts, hopefully they show up sooner than later

Totally agree, a good setup needs no stabilizer at all. I've driven my JT without the Stabilizer without any issues. I put it back on but feel like it drives just as good without it.
