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

[steffen707]

LOVE the blackout tail panel ! Was that a "kit", or was it custom wrap ? That might actually make me like my black fenders ! Looks great !!!

sorry, just saw this. It was not a kit, just a custom wrap by a local shop. I think they charged me like $75. it was like matte black with matte charcoal.

Sent this one for media blast and re powdercoat. Although I like the PS gloss black spydershell, I want to make my front end pop.

Sounds like more Mopar Common Core education system engineering at work...

First, lets give the Jeep model that can only tow 3,500 lbs. max the 475/475 6.4 hemi...Instead of the 7,000 lbs. tow rated Jeep vehicle (JTR), and now their [Not so] Big Brake Kit is even smaller than stock JT brakes...

This shit gets funnier by the day. And by funnier, I mean retarded.

As long as they don’t go “Full retard, never go full retard”

Man, I don't see how yall in the big cities run around doorless and topless without worrying about someone stealing your shit... I live in the middle of nowhere, and I still leave my doors on, top on, and windows up, and doors locked at all times when I'm not in the vehicle or parking at someone's house that I know is a safe area.

I live in a city, and drive around naked. If I return to my Jeep with someone in it, they will exit vehicle with more orifices then they entered with.

I love the name!

Added a Spiderwebshade. I went with Grey because I’m not sure if I want a contrast color or not yet and didn't want black. I just did the front because I don‘t expect to take the top off that much. hopefully it will keep a little heat off my bald head!

Can you put the tops back on without taking off the spider shade?

 

[eternus]

I have a set on order.

Woof, affordable they are not.

The ride height in the front is higher than I expected with the Rubicon suspension swap, but then I realized that the front coils are expecting a 83lb steel Rubicon bumper to be there. I'll get one of those soon enough. Here's before and after images.

Also had some delayed Father's Day gifts that arrived today. Not quite "what I did to my Gladiator", but close enough.

bald guy to bald guy you made a smart investment. I’m In sunny FL and it works great! I also like that you don’t need to remove it to put the Freedom tops back on. You do have to stretch it some at the front latches but not much. The rest of the Side clips are fine. Spiderwebshade - protecting the follicly challenged.

Yeah mine is really loose along the back by the rear headrests. Sounds like a plastic bag whipping around.

Are you sure you mounted the bungee attachment posts in the right positions? I installed mine at the same time as my soft top so I had everything apart and had the posts shifted forward. Realized it as I was installing the shade when it didn’t look like it lined up properly.

Yep, not much margin for error on the install for these but I did double check.

My spiderwebshade is loose and flaps all over the place. I reached out to them about it but they never bothered to reply.

That is unfortunate. My spiderwebshade (JTMini) is extremely tight.

Where did they come from!? I want one

I have no problem with the front half, its the overhang behind the back seats.
