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

[Batchinguy]

Well today I got the Jeep 2” lift, 35” tires,
The Mopar CAI with the hood cut out done (says for track and off road only not for road/hwy use lol,) and the Mopar dual exhaust with black tips

It won’t stay this way long.

Installed Fab Fours Rock Slider. My observations:

Pros: Well Made; Perfect Fitment; Really Heavy Duty; Attached to Rails Stock Holes (4 Bolts) and to the Body (1 Bolt) allowing extra reinforcement; Rock Lights Ready.

Cons: Price (Twice more compared with most of market rock rails); Heavy (I think is twice heavier compared to stock rails)

I could mention the design as positive, but is a matter of taste. I wanted something well done that would fit perfectly with no gaps between gladiator body and the rails. The design of “drop steps” of some rails available in the market would be more convenient to get in and out but wouldn’t be recommended to serious trails with rocks.
I think the only cons is in fact the price, but quality costs and Fab Fours Sliders overcome my expectations.

Picked up snow tires a few weeks ago and finally put the color matched bumper pieces on too. It was nice yesterday so I was able to wash it and get a good pic

Looks very nice

Going to a three day event next month and last year I dragged the rear end a lot.

Put the 35s on a couple weekends ago. And then today I installed the fish bone off-road front 3/4 inch spacers.

No spacers:

After spacers:

Kinda crappy angles in those pics, my parking pad is sloped weird. But the spacer helped out a bit. I didn’t have any running issues, but the rake was way more pronounced after the tires. Still have about 3/4 to an inch of rake, but it looks better now.

Moved our tow strap to center of our rear headliner. Still optimizing all the gained storage area.

I was actually looking at these today. How do they mount over the Mopar headliner? I really like the idea of this as I can remove the panels in the summer and throw them in the back keeping everything attached secure!

These do not attach to the mopar headliner. We use industrial velcro to attach our panels to the hardtop. The panels are also insulated and can hold some weight!

Better comparison of my front spacers. Top pic is stock Mac tow suspension with 35s. Bottom is with the 3/4” front coil spacers.

Mopar black steelies for a more classic military look and bye dirty Jeep 97% of the time.

Don't get me wrong it looks great dirty but when the most most you do is go to work at an office and taking road trips with the family the -12 offset gets old. Would love to be off-roading and overlanding every weekend or month even but not my reality.

Very nice. That's on my wish list some day. What size tire is that - particularly width?

 

[Fawkes]

Installed a DV8 FS-15 front bumper. Had the d-rings painted firecracker to match. Winch, aux switches up next

They're the BFG KO2 tires stock on the JL Rubicon's, 285/70R17 equivalent to a 33x11.5​

 

[21GCMSPORT]

Installed set Hooke Road rocker rall(I dare call it that) with step.

Didnt see anything like it and wasnt 2x as much as this one.

As expected mounting holes through underrail lip there was about 3/8 gap.

Went to Ace for new bolts and nuts and with enough persuasion I got bolts lined up.

The 70's Called.
They wanted their antenna back.
Rydonair RD-RMRNJ 12.8"
As someone else cautioned, the aluminum mounting adapter has black paint on the threads. Clean this off so you get good metal-to-metal contact with the brass insert.

I currently have this and will be looking elsewhere now. In decent winds it smacks against the windshield pillar/Frame and is damned annoying
