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

Why does Gator change color so much?! It looks like Gobi here and then I see it in person and it's green.
I was thinking the same thing . I wasn't a fan of the color online at launch but I saw a custom one the other day on 40s and a roll bar and it looked really good. Good luck with the iron cross steps. I've had them for two months now and already had to repair the ends with rustolium touch up paint from rocks hitting it. I don't think its long enough because I noticed chips in my door paint the other day too. Does anyone know if they make a touch up color that will match a powder coat? Maybe flat black or matte black? I used regular black because it's all I had.

Almost 10 months and 12,000 miles since I picked her up. She's changed a little. A little darker, higher and thicker than before.

That bottom picture looks like Sting-Gray while the top is obviously Granite. Paint colors on the internet are so bonkers.
I've had many pictures I've taken where it looks Sting-Gray. Just the lighting that plays tricks with it.

Having driven a Jeep Gladiator since 2015, today I have changed the tires for my car, it was a bit of a waste of time because I was not a professional, I needed help from my friend.
So many questions.

that’s exactly what I like about it. It’s like a mood ring truck. I was really wishing for a Sarge green, but the more I look at the Gator in the driveway, the more I am glad I got it. I ❤ Gator!

Installed a Noco Genius 2amp maintenance/trickle charger into the Arcus bumper for when we are camping in the trees (poor solar) and have access to shore power; also have power for a block heater when we move in the future...

I'll take some pics tomorrow but I have the cheap-o Amazon hinge covers on mine before I mounted the Smitty steps overtop so idk how much help it will be for you to compare. One thing I don't like about the hinge steps was the rubber gasket peieces that go behind the new hinge bolts. It's bigger and the access rubber bleeds over the edge. Idk maybe I can rip it off somehow.

Did you get it sorted?

Were you able to get some close-up pics to how it mounts/contacts the door hinge?

So I wrapped up 4th door today. If anyone's planning on getting these Smittybilt hinge steps your gonna need the TT50 craftsman from Lowes. I went through five different t50s and they are all different in size by brand. The TT50 craftsman with hole in middle was so tight at insert it banged in with a hammer like a glove then you have the grip you need to get the bolts loose with a breaker bar.
