Hate to assume worst case scenario, but do those cross bars have any sort of lock feature? People have sticky hands, and you could be out a lot of gear if they just unscrew those 2 easy to reach bolts on each bar end.

They do, they are keyed torx bolts.

Well luckily last week when one of my freedom tops went flying down the road I had just ordered my Sunrider the night before. I definitely love this thing. It's way better quality than the one on my JK. It just fits a lot better and was an easier install. I know it's not necessarily the best time of year for sun but here in San Diego it's a nice beautiful sunny day so that's perfect. One of these days I eventually need to get that top repaired that flew onto the road. But this Sunrider will tie me over.

Oops quoted wrong post

That's a great idea. I think i have the same racks by KBVoodoo... I have a Yakima basket on driver side and bike mount and my traction boards on passenger side.

Tereflex rear track bar correction bracket. I like it solid easy install, you can see how parallel it makes the track bar to the axle. Went on a cruise over a really poor condition asphalt road and at 50 to 60 mph this Mojave is awesome. Not sure how much the bracket helped though. Admittedly I am come out of my 3rd 2 door wrangler.

This has been sitting in my garage patiently awaiting me not being a lazy pos.

Installed a 12vdc socket in the bed for the freezer. Went straight to the battery, fused of course.

I needed to update this a while ago. I have installed aux switches and a solenoid to control the 12vdc. Has been working perfectly.

How much of a lift do you have on that? Wondering if there's any benefit to installing on mine with just the added Rubi take off shocks n springs

I have the 2" AEV Spacer on a Mojave. Tereflex says for 0 to 6 inch lift.

Had to get my rear different gears changed out due to bashing a rock on one of my offroad excursions. Actually not sure when or how it happened, so drove with it draining oil only when moving. Never left a mess under the Jeep so didn't realize it until it started making noise. When i did, it sounded like it was coming from the front.

The dealership in town was taking appointments only, so I am scheduled for the the 17th. Good thing i didn't wait though, I went to our local jeep shop and the mechanic took it for a test drive, and we finally saw the damage when we put it on the lift. Not a pretty picture and not covered under warranty. He pretty much said you're not going anywhere. Luckily, he had time and 1100 dollars later....all fixed up. Live and learn...

Makes you wish you put a little bit more armor underneath

Five days into owning my Gladiator and I can finally post! Full disclosure: I made the effort to read the past posts…got through the first 100 pages in 2 days and realized this was a losing battle. Absolute gold in this thread though!

Anyways, today I installed my Rough Country contoured steps and RokBlokz (original size) front flaps.

The steps were for my wife and kids, but I think they add to the look! $80 for front mud-flaps might sound expensive, but the design is perfect and easy to remove if you need to.
