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

[Proximo]

@Jeep24MA you could look into some decals, if that's something you might be interested in adding

Just a little stretching today. Getting ready for Drummond Island, MI next weekend

 

[BLK HOLE]

Ops checked the Hothead headliner and sound assassin install; significant noise reduction on the highway.

If they stay up it'll be worth the $ and couple hours.

Mine are a little. Ore than a month old and Texas has been a SCORCHER this year. Plus we took it to AZ in that time and it was over a 100 everyday. Hasn’t missed a beat.

For whatever that is worth as far as durability. So far so good.

Added some flags. The other side is the correct stars forward.

Removed this abomination:

Benson are goods folks, but a chrome dealer plate in 2020?

Replaced it with this from Don at Pixel Decals.

Apologies in advance to those who suffer from OCD. I don't think it's on straight. Hopefully with time and medication you will be able to unsee this.

Install the Weathertech - love the new mats they cover so much more than the factory carpets. Snug fit plus goes over the center hump. They also look good w/ the Rugged Ridge sill protectors. I'll be putting the Jeep carpet mats up on CL - 200 miles no dirt/new condition if you want a set.

Finished up a custom HAM Radio Bracket for the Builtright Gladiator rail kit.
This will be used to hold a Yaesu ATAS-120 HF antenna - will get that installed later.

Used 3 X 3 X 1/4" Stainless steel angle - this will not flex or move. Really good solid mount for a big HF mobile antenna.

More photos in the gallery.

What kind of results have you had on HF using this mount? Any RF grounding issues? What bands, etc.? I am thinking about something similar for my screwdriver, except mounting it to the T-Slot rail on the tonneau so that I can use the antenna with the tonneau closed. I recognize that may add some RF grounding issues over what you have, but I may be able to get some ground strap to the rail. .

Thanks.

Added BulletLiner to the bed.

Added BulletLiner to the bed.

I would love to hear a review from you on this product. Been keeping an eye on it for a while.

 

[DeezJT]

@Karnaj so far so good, but I would’ve gone linex also. With BulletLiner, it saved me a few bucks... 500 linex, 475 for BulletLiner. Also, my local Linex are closed on Saturdays. BulletLiner was able to fill me in based on my schedule.

I chose BulletLiner because I like to purchase new things...I had LineX on my previous tundra and had no issues. I’m sure this will have no issues as well.

Swapped out the wheels today and put some Go Rhino steps this morning! Looks much different! Any more Suggestions for the exterior?

I like the color matching rims on the sting gray wish mine had those. Maybe will make the change one day when funds are available.

That looks very similar to the Xtreme Liner Bed Spray on mine. If its anything like the Xtreme Liner Spray you will like It. I have had it on two other trucks and that stuff was tough and threw all kind of stuff in the back

I didn't take pictures but I installed a Console Vault into the Center console this evening. Took about 15 minutes and so far looks like it will work out great with the 4 number combination lock on top to secure stuff.

Found a steal on Rubi suspension takeoffs tonight, going through the part numbers online verifying sides for springs (higher number for passenger it seems)
68341340ac front left coil
68341343ac front right coil
68341450ab rear left coil
68341451ac rear right coil
I'll have to check the sway bar links and the lower control arms for part # difference compared to stock, but if I don't have to swap them, that'll make the conversion quicker overall. Added bonus, the install instructions for the Mopar 2" lift were included with the parts, so there's torque listings if I do have to swap those other parts. This will be my Tuesday project. Now just need to keep an eye out for the 3-piece steel take off front bumper and I'll be good...for now.
