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

[Jaxmax]

Installed Rubicon rear bed sliders and stainless unistrut for bed rail system, only doing sides, don’t need front. Brackets for RSI cap fit better then ones designed to not use rail system...

Tired of scraping the diffs. Put on some Rancho guards front and rear.

How much ground clearance loss with those? Looks like you need additional ground clearance. Possible lift & tires.
If your scrapping your obviously off-roading so are you planning any mods?

Added a jump seat

Absolutely going to bigger tires. When I scraped it up on the trail I was on 32"s. They were near the end of their life (got them used), so the stock tires went back on. Have 1.5" spacer on front, .75 on back. Just saving up for 35's. And lower control arm skids.

Finished up installing some Body Armor steps/rails.

Tried to set up the auto high beams. I obviously missed a setting or two in the process as still nothing..........
COLD so didn't want to mess with those security cables again, they are a pain to get to anyway. Warmer next week, will triple check the settings again - and try again (also have cable extensions ordered so changes should be much easier in the future)

Oh, also removed the wreath from the grill, and have an extension cable all set to go when I dig in behind the glove box to unplug the wreath light connection - I'll extend the 12 volt outlet cable and find a place to put the 12 volt outlet so I can use it more easily next time instead of removing the glove box and digging to get to it back there.

Any good ideas on where to relocate the 12 volt outlet? Should have enough wire now to reach a few spots.

I love the look of wind tint but I hate it at night so I live without.

It for sure looks nice on your rig.

I loved having tinted windows when I lived in Phoenix, but I also almost blasted people walking on the sidewalk on multiple occasions turning into restaurants/bars at night. I haven’t had tinted fronts since and I have less stress because of it haha.
If I could figure out a way to turn on side flood lights when I turn my steering wheel (like the cornering lights I’ve had on an old Lincoln and BMW) then I’d tint in a heartbeat!

Camera mount, need to get the lens support before I can go off road with it.
I drove up and down 89A to Jerome AZ with it. The camera is a Sony A6000 with Smallrig cage. I just drilled and tapped a hole in to the led mount.

First time I saw those cornering lights on a Cadillac I was riding in (late 80s/early 90s) I LOVED how helpful they were, and I am surprised they are not on more models.

Little graphics addition

What does that mean?

It means: "Better watch out! Eddy is back!"

How are you trying to setup the auto-dim high beam?

 

[IamAlan]

Added the Hollywood Rack Recumbent bike rack for our Elliptigo bikes. Works great and folds up when not in use.

I always smile when I see folks on Elliptigo's. They're so cool!

Looks awesome, have the same set sitting in my garage and had the same on my JL!

I used to see a gal in my old neighborhood riding one. It obviously gave her a hell of a workout because she had an ass I know you could have bounced a quarter off of.

How are you trying to setup the auto-dim high beam?

Here's the tools I've been using - the only thing not showing through is the settings menu option but I just enabled that this morning so maybe it takes a while to show? AlfaOBD says I made the change and the truck seems to agree...........

Settings are in the BCM for everything -

Here's where you tell the BCM that the CMS choice is present - defaults to no from factory if your truck doesn't have it - I selected yes, told it to start the procedure to change, and it said procedure completed.

I turned the garage lights off (it's a cloudy, dreary, day - 23 degrees) so it was dark inside. Headlight switch set to auto mode (my wife and I always run all of our vehicles in auto mode unless conditions dictate a need to have them on in the day - funeral, etc.)
I made sure the stalk was in the high beam setting - started it and it told me Automatic High Beams Enabled"
Just not in the settings in the big screen - hopefully in a few hours?

It's an early November, 2019 build 2020 model year - ACC, forward collision, all that present in the truck.
