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

[stil2low]

Checked bump stop clearance, looks like I’ll have to add one more block in to keep the tire out of the fender

Rancho Front diff glide plate 2/3 installed ?… as others have reported the supplied u-bolt is not long enough to connect.

Installed my Goose Gear high-platform 60% rear seat delete. I had to put it in and take it out a dozen times making wee adjustments to the positioning of the legs in the extrusions but in the end I’m very happy with he design and fit. Solidly built. I may do the other 40% later.

Very nice.

New Goodyear's. AT Adventure Kevlar. They are on my wife's Grand Cherokee and were on my Chevrolet Colorado Z71. 60k warranty

I have not seen those, I thought their MT/R was the only Kevlar tire. They look like a KO2 pattern (good) and with a 3-peak rating and Kevlar, I was interested. First few reviews I just read were not too impressive though..

these are actually one of the tires im looking at as a potential replacement for the stock duelers. Thankfully most people hate them when they get them stock so there are often some floating around the second hand market with pretty much no miles on them

Gave it a final bath and removed all the extras...

...before trading in my 2020 manual (on the left) for a 2021 auto w/ Max Tow (on the right) at Tri-City. Same color and trim. Now to add all those bits and bobs back on.

Considering doing the same thing! How did the trade work out (break even, cost a fortune?)

Only “larger” cooler I could find that fit under hard tonneau cover. Perfect for those 110+ degree days ??? And yes ....made right here in good old USA.

Which size cooler is that?!

After cursing and dying from humidity - got my tent installed. These things are huge and heavy. It hangs over front and back like 4-6 inches.

The old CB wired in to power and mounted. Still not sure where I want the antenna to end up.

I am interested in your Ham radio grab bar mount. Please provide details.

Thanks to @Garemlin I got my Willys grille shipped to me the other day and installed it this morning. So I guess my JT is a “Billys” because it’s currently a bogus Willys with the grille and wheels.

Looks great!
I wouldn't mind doing a Billys Conversion to mine as well haha

Swapped out the gloss black grille for the Mopar satin black grille. Just have to get the trim pieces painted Nacho now. IMO this is how the Willys should have come since all of the other trim and wheels are satin black.

This looks great! I wonder what it would look like on my black Willys?

Curious, how much and where did you get the grille? Sure the black one could be sold too.... hmmm, no idea this is something I wanted

Picked it up here

It is 3d printed, just slips on over the grab bar and then holds firmly in place.

Grille can be bought at any mopar parts retailer or Quadratec. BAM Wholesale Parts is the cheapest place I found. You also need to order the three trim pieces as well as the clips to attach the trim pieces.

Not to the Gladiator, but installed this smart lift system. It’s technically for the Wrangler hard-top, but I will be repurposing it as a lift for my tent when it arrives. It normally attaches via a net with straps that go around the four corners of the top, which I will “recreate” by wrapping them under the crossbars themselves and lifting the entire assembly off the bed.

Got the Skyjacker 3.5” installed. Heading across the boarder (CO/NM) this week to get the 37" Patagonia's mounted on some DV8 beadlocks. Crossing my fingers that they can get reasonably balanced.
