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

[Alabama Mud Machine]

I was running Tazer 11.2.0 version. So, I just did the Tazer 11.2.1 update, maybe the backup light thing will be a huge difference...It should be.

I hope the update makes it easier to turn off the Auto-Park feature. If not, I hope the next Tazer update will fix the turn-off Auto-Park feature to where it actually TURNS IT OFF!

First post since I bought it about a week ago. This is a lease haha however had to do tires, got a good local deal on some maxxis bighorn mt 285 70s for 500 installed. Kept factory rims installed and yesterday I painted them black (plasti dip) decided to use the metalizer after, still not to convinceed on the sparkly look. Also got a stubby antenna off of autozone for 9.99 works great.

Welcome to the club.

Mine is a lease too....For now...Because the Rubicon prices are ridiculous. But I ended up liking it so much, that I plan on buying it at the end of the lease for a much lower price (the residual left over) than what it will still be worth in 3 years. That's why I'm not afraid to mod mine.

Mine is no Rubicon but too early too tell if will keep this, I've owned other jeeps in the past but the olders. 92 yj and two cjs one 1980 and a 1977. I can't seem to keep a car for over 2 3 years. I had financed a cts v coupe which thought would be my dream car and after two years just traded it in for a sport s haha what a change...

The orientation tabs on the side are different. I tried both sides just to make sure I wasn't missing something.

Ok. I spoke to them on the phone when I ordered to ask questions and tell them what they were going on, so maybe they sent me out some that were actually for the JT? I didn’t have that issue.

I bought some cheap used V.4 fogs on here from a member as spares and they fit too. Those were on a Gladiator as well. Hope it all works out! You’ll love the output!

I have had that problem since 2012... I bought my first new Mustang GT Performance Pack (special ordered), and traded it in 2015, lost my ass on it. Then the truck I traded it for, was a complete dumpster-fire piece of shit (2011 Chevy Silverado Z71 CrewCab), and I traded it in 2017 for my 2017 Mustang GT Performance Pack. And traded it back in March for my 2020 Gladiator. I miss my Mustang, and it was fast as hell... But, it only did 1 thing well....Go fast. I needed more practicality out of a daily driver.

The longest I've EVER owned a single daily-driven still road-worthy vehicle in my entire life is my 2007 Ram 2500 Cummins 4x4. I bought it new in 2007, and still have it. It's also been the cheapest vehicle I've ever owned, as far as repairs go...Despite it having a 6" Fabtech lift and 38's under it, with all sorts of engine mods and performance upgrades. Pretty much other than oil changes, and some A/C repair work, 1 locked-up caliper, and the steering sector breaking (which ended up becoming a recall issue later, but I never got reimbursed for it...FCA assholes...) it's been a dream truck. I don't think I can ever part with it.

All the other trucks in my signature I've owned them for almost 20 years, but they've been out of commission from daily driving or hell, even running at this point, for over 10 of those years.

Installed my Rigged Ridge Spartan full width bumper on my jeep. Love everything about it other than I couldn't use my aftermarket LED Foglights I bought so I had to reinstall the factory Halogens. I'm either going to find some cheap Take off factory LEDs or throw in some bulbs. Got 2 4.5 inch led cannons on the way and my 12000lb Apex winch will be delivered tomorrow. Can't wait to everything completed. Pictures of the bumper

Looks good.

Thanks! i got this cheap rack from amazon: XCAR 2-Bike Bicycle Hitch Mount... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MCXJ21K?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I used it for the first time this morning, drove about 60 miles total, I did not hear any noise at all. Installation is super easy. The rack is on the heavier side but it’s mainly due to the thicker metal they use, which after owning a few thin metal ones, I really like. It’s super sturdy. It holds 2 bikes and come with an anti vibration mechanism. I really like it (if you couldnt already tell).

Thanks

Installed a set of KC Cyclone rock lights.

This looks great, and I am looking into the KC cyclones for rock lights. Can you comment on the install? How do they attach? Did you wire back to Mopar AUX switches? How many lights did you use, and where did you place them? Thanks

Put it in the garage for the first time! I, uh, think I need a bigger garage....

Finally got the interior juiced... was waiting on a good set of battery terminal crimpers. Blue Sea's 4-gang fuse block tucks up nicely to the side of the glovebox attached to the speaker pod with a millimeter to spare. Wires have a bit more room.

4 AWG from the battery through the nipple above the main wire loom on passenger side (very tight fit and lots of lube required because marine power cable is fat) but it gives me 80A of always-hot fused power without running additional leads inside.

I installed the Teraflex leveling kit. I used only the 1" spacer, not the bump stops, and not the 1/2" spacer. I measured the front to back difference along the rubi rail, and it was 1 3/4" before the spacer. I never want it to look squatted back, so I think it was the best choice.
