Added 1 3/4 spacers all around from CJPony Parts. Love the new stance and feel when driving. First three are before and last two after. Sorry, I'm not much of a photog, camera glass is busted on my phone.

Installed 1” spacer on the front and 3/4” spacer on the rear.

I wonder how this would look with those spacers reversed. I really love the raked look and I want my truck to look more like a fast hot rod than an off road machine.

There is still just a slight rake to it, probably like 1/4 to 1/2 inch

Installed US Cargo Contol L-track aircraft rails. They are 4’ long and not a direct bolt-in. I took careful measurements and drilled and chamfered the proper holes. I used stainless steel hardware since this is for outdoor use. I have another one on the way for the front of the bed. Since this type of rail is used by the aircraft industry, there are lots of tie-down accessories.

So not just today, but last Saturday and today I put I in my armorlite flooring and bartact seat covers, alien sunshade, and weathertech mudflaps.

Here’s the driver side armorlite after 1 week of driving about 3 hours a day M-F. I can tell you, when the carpet was in, one week of driving and it looked pretty rough. We have a gravel driveway, so all that gravel dust that gets kicked in really sets into carpet, and the armorlite is miles ahead, and I can just wipe it down.

Here is the backseat armorlite, not long after my son hurled all over it lmao! Can’t even tell it happened. He hasn’t thrown up in a vehicle since he was a toddler, so of course it would happen in my new truck. But, the seat cover and floor wiped right down! The back seat cover is just a cheaper one off Amazon, but it did okay too.

Alien sunshade. Awesome, no flapping! I think I might have it in upside down though, and the logo is supposed to be facing up? Not sure it matters, and I ain’t messing with the bungees to flip it.

Here’s the weathertech mudflaps. I should have installed them as soon as I got them, since now I have a couple rock chips from our driveway gravel.

Everything was pretty straight forward to install. It did not take me 1-2 hours to install the armorlite though! It took me a lot longer, but I also had to go back and fix a couple spots I messed up. I could have done it much quicker with some help from my husband, but I’m way too stubborn. I did have old dog as a supervisor though.

oh yeah, I also debadged it. Now that the rubicon stickers are off, I’d like to stick something else where they were…maybe a stripe?

I'm on the fence about it in general. I love the look of the gladiator with it lifted around the height of a rubicon, but I also love the look of my sport model as is (no lift but with 35's and 1.5" offset). I'm worried about messing with that. As a kid I used to love the hot rod trucks of all the different hot rods out there.
