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

[mountainpass]

Rock hard down-angled sliders. Did not encounter the horror stories about red locktite and snapped bolts. Bolts were stiff but I was able to remove them with my 18” socket wrench. You will need to drill out the holes - plan on it.

Would you mind snapping a pic from further back looking straight at side maybe from a lower position. Also is your truck stock?

Installed the ARC door hangers this weekend. Installed the shorter antenna too. Also did a ceramic coating (after I put the doors/top back on). It was a busy weekend

Did a few cheap convenience type things over the weekend.

Just some cheap roll bar handles from Amazon...I think it was about $16 for all four. Then on the drivers side I added a molle "tech pouch" from 3vgear.com so I can throw my sunglasses in there and a little room for other odds and ends.

Added some single anchor tie-down points with m6 x 1 x 25mm screws into the pre-threaded spots for the trail rail system. Really cheap easy solution to having some more tie down points besides the 4 lower corners.

Got a scrap of carpet from a carpet store and cut it to fit the bed. Easy to slide out if I need to haul dirty stuff but it's nice to have in there to keep things from sliding around and protect stuff like the freedom panels.

Added black vinyl decals over the silver badging. Still some silver accents around the edges but I thought that looked nice. Got these on Etsy. Did the large tailgate badge too.

Strapped some foam on a $12 dolly from harbor freight and made a simple storage solution for the hard top.

Also added a tyger tonneau cover from Amazon that was only about $190 and it looks great and fits really well even though it says it's for a Chevy Colorado. Don't have a photo of that though.

Pretty happy with all of this stuff!

Quadratec aluminum front sway bar skid plate. Goes good with the Tactic stubby.

Just enough to set it off from the others...

Borla climber exhaust

What does a climber exhaust do?

Tried to install steel 3 piece Rubicon type bumper up front, along with Rubicon skid plate (that bolts to bumper) but ran into big trouble.
The skid plate brackets like used on Rubicon (both skid plate types) won't work with Draw-Tite front receiver.
The skid plate brackets go where the receiver bolts to the frame. Not enough room or clearance for both so I have to decide between the skid plate and the receiver. (or ANY skid plate! since I can't use brackets with this receiver)

Also found rust starting already on the front ends of the frame.

Both sides in this spot - and others -

What does a climber exhaust do?

Not much. Adds a little growl to your engine sound if you get on it. Tucks up over axle to maintain ground clearance.

Put bed lights in on Sunday. These aren’t Oracle, just 3 four foot long waterproof LED strips. I mounted each strip to the bottom of the trail rails and ran power to Aux 4. I could have just tied into existing bed lights, but those shut off after a bit.

These look amazing! Thanks! Can’t wait to get it in!

Can you make one like mine? These look amazing

Installed the export mirrors and proximity door handles today. The wide angle mirrors are perfect for towing. Now just waiting on the mirror jumper wiring for the signals.

Interesting. I didn't know they had a signal variant. Do you happen to have part numbers?
