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

[akamax_power]

Installed Rugged Ridge hard rolling bed cover. Required a quick run to Home Depot to pick up some hardware since one of the supplied bolts wasn’t quite right.

Hate to say it but he wasn’t there long. Mainly how we came out on track each session. One session I was taking turn 11 to start down the back straight and the McLaren was coming out of 9 hot and I was waiting to give the point by and I was accelerating down the back straight around 125mph and climbing and he blew by me like I was dragging a boat anchor.

Had to be doing 150+ when he passed me

I’m curious why the McLaren is always running behind you guys on the track. Looks like fun!

Nothing major, just a 6 pack of rock lights, wired to aux switches. I'm an EE by trade, so am really OCD about wiring, so took a bit. Marine grade solder spliced it all together.

Removed both aftermarket bumpers, winch, skid plates, Armorlite flooring, 37s and a few other things. All thats left to remove is the Diamondback, and she'll be gone.

Something looked familiar to me: I believe we were at the same event back in Feb 2015 ? rather cold weather at COTA

Which event was this?

Does COTA do a lot of open track days?

Coming from LA, Buttonwillow and Laguna Seca was home turf to have fun.

Can’t wait to try COTA.

Well two weeks in and it is escalating quickly. Picked up tires and wheels today

BFG KM3 37x12.5x17 on ICON Wheels only ones I could find in stock yesterday. Glad they fit stock as the Metal Cloak 3.5 is not here yet

ICON Bumper and Smitty 12,000lb winch going on tomorrow. Along with Rigid lights

5:13 Dana Gears along with the new one wire Eaton E Locker for the front diff should be here mid November

Looks great. I'm looking at getting the same wheels. Can you post a pic from the front? I want to see how much tire poke there is.

I put BFG 35/12.50/17's on including the spare with AEV wheels 17 x 8.5. I have the AEV 2 inch spacer on the front. I also changed out my rock rails for the overland type steps. I will probably put the rock rails up for sale locally. They only have 650 miles on them.

 

[polarisTXguy]

Haven’t mounted them yet. Waiting on Gears and Tazer

But I will once they are in stalled

Looking to buy a set of factory Rubicon wheels and tires, anybody what to sell your take offs?

Wrapped the tailgate and lights. Honestly, it looked SUPER good until I put on the 'Gladiator' lettering. I didn't realize the spacing on the T was different and it's all wonky. Bought a new set and now I've got to redo the tailgate.

What brand lights did you go with? I’m looking at the Lux lights.

Another small mod as my bank account recovers from the purchase.

Love it! I did something similar today too!

I like your coverage a little more though.

I need to do that, I've noticed I'm going to scratch my paint real quick getting in and out.
