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

[Hothead Headliners]

... installed a Badlands Apex 12000 winch (everything but the wiring to the battery as my interrupt kit is still in the hands of Amazon delivery), and installed the full Hothead Headliner kit. The first one makes the girl wallow a bit when turning, the second made my commute much quieter and warmer.

No joke, love this headliner kit.

Edited: typos.

I'm glad you love your new Hothead Headliner kit and we were able to help improve your commute!

Picked up my Gladiator from the shop that installed my Aev 2.5” dual sport lift and Teraflex trac bar. If your thinking about this lift pull the trigger it’s amazing so far!

Could you share some pictures of your ride on even ground?
Getting the same lift with 35s on my overland in a couple of weeks and would like to see the stance.
Thanks in advance!

How big of a difference did it make?

Only drive about 30min home from the shop, but so far? Game changer. The exhaust is WAY quieter at cruise now too on account of reduced engine load. Best way i can describe it is that the truck feels lighter. That easy acceleration is back.

Doing my normal commute tomorrow. I wont be looking at mpg until after the break in is done, but will have a better sense of the drive tomorrow.

That's a really good way of explaining it! I feel like when I put my 37s on 4.10s the truck just seems heavy and drives hard where as stock it seemed more effortless. Let us know how things go tomorrow.
