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

[Strider62]

I like these as well. My Gladiator is the 3rd vehicle I have installed the Redline hood struts on, and it was the easiest.

Just added these today myself. Super, super easy install. Love them.

Question. What did you use on your a/c vents

I haven't done anything to my AC vents. Did you see something that didn't look stock?
Oh, I think I know what you're seeing. That's the reflection of the red shirt I was wearing.

They looked orange/red

Also, no more prop rods. They drive me nuts. From maintenance to attaching the compressor to the battery, its better without the damn rod.

This one is from redline tuning. For the fancy types, they also have a stainless steel strut case finish. NGL it did look pretty snazzy, so for the fancy types its a nice bit of bling. But trying to show restraint damnit! So I got the black.

Also, has nice quick disconnects so its no problem at all to swing the hood all the way back.

And am glad it clears the snorkel no problem.

What's the diff between their plus and their elite versions (aside from about 30 bucks that is haha)
Is that the stainless mentioned compared to the black?

Plus a 5 year warranty versus 4.

It was just the reflection of my red shirt in the chrome bezel

So I added a Warn VR-12S winch. But I have one question, the install isn't centered. Is that normal? Its sitting on Warns winch plate. I'm more worried about the line than how it looks, but it does also kind of bug me that its off center.

You should be more worried about getting a fine parked in that No Parking Zone


I’m kidding......I don’t know about the winch. Carry on.

I added a Rubicon front bumper + 7" Mopar LEDs that someone was selling NEW on EBay for $240. I wired them to AUX #4.

Also, I added a set of Kenda Klevers 35X10.50 on bronze Rock Trix wheels.

Next up: Leveling Kit + Rubicon shocks

It's not uncommon for the control box to be off center. What you want to pay attention to is where the cable/rope spool sits in relation to the fairlead. As long as those two are co-located, you're good.

You can shift the housing over with an alan wrench. But that is completely normal.

I have the same set up as yours, except EVO VR10. The Warn winch mounting plate should have two sets of mounting holes- one for centered fairlead and another one for offset ones. Check underneath (remove skid plate, if installed) and look for the other holes. Hope you find them. Otherwise, you may want to consider having it replaced, or drill new holes. Good luck. This is a great set up.

Here is a stock photo that shows two sets of holes - at least mine came this way. I thought the VR10 and VR12 shared the same housing (different gear ratio), but it is possible the mounting is different.

Some little add ins that I stole from following the thread..

1- blacked out 4x4 Trail Rated Emblem. Going todo the JEEP emblems next week

2- Mopar Door Sill guards.

3-JEEP Valve stem Lids... Adds 10HP I think....

4. - Jeep Dead Peddle

Got the same valve stems...I agree with the 9-10hp advantage.
