Whats funny is I hit a switch at work to turn on some overheads the other night and said this phrase out loud after reading that post haha my partner is a bit young and didnt get the reference
That’s fantastic. I definitely use the reference and get little or no reaction from those around. Their loss.

Finally got around to De-badging the JT today. Still deciding on whether to remove the Mojave sticker but got the rest.

Only to realize after removing the tailgate badge they centered it with two pins. I’m sure this makes MFG easier but Damm there is two holes in the sheet metal.

So until I figure out a plan, really want a clean tailgate. I used the fender badges on the tailgate for now.

JeeeeP

Jeeeep

Thoughts?

You could grab some small plastic plugs to fit in the holes and paint the heads of them gloss white before install. That's what a lot of "spoiler delete" guys do with cars to remove spoilers and eliminate the holes

I thought of that but the dam things are not centered on the tailgate. Initially I covered them with round white vinyl stickers this morning Every time o walked by it today I couldn’t help but look right at them.

I’m struggling as the P is slightly crooked now.

OCD baby. Find a good welder and zap those holes shut, grind, sand and paint. Done.

Installed two Christmas gifts on it today. A hood edge protector. I prefer the dark clear one to the solid black or truly clear ones.

It went on easily with 3M tape and they give 4 tiny sheet metal screws.

Then I installed the Mopar bull bar and it was a pain in the butt. One of the holes was pretty badly mis-aligned - which pissed me off, of course - so I had to wallow it out a little with a drill then a rat tail file and right in the middle of it my Milwaukee drill crapped out. Pictures tell the tale.

To those that have installed the hood struts to get rid of the hood prop rod, which would be the better option of these 2? Is there a reason for a $54 bump?..... well besides shipping time.

Went out to The Chattahoochee NF and Cohutta Wilderness, pretty much my back yard, for our shakedown run. Ended up having to land a drone down in the valley due to some issues with my geofence and altitude settings errors on dji air2s. Lots of fun retrieving it, took like 3 hours. But still ended up having a great time and getting a definite baseline of our Gladiator and be able to see to what the changes made so far work and let me know what the next steps will make a difference. Interior mods are a blessing so far. Only thing I may need to tweak a little is our Tablet mapping mount. But since I didn’t have my spouse with me today it will have to wait. Good day overa and got to check out the old 1930s CCC camp out there very cool. Might have to go back and get photos in better lighting. Oh well and we officially kicked off our Veteran Overland Project to stop veteran suicide with our first teaser video on YouTube. Here is one of the photos I took to give an idea of what we are going for on both Instagram and our YouTube. Links below if interested. We would appreciate the follow and likes. Really does help out and will end up helping out a at risk veteran.
