Unfortunately, had a car driver not pay attention and rear end me at a traffic stop! She obviously got the worst of the situation, my rear bumper and tailgate are the obvious damage to my Gladiator.

Yeah, I’d agree, she got the majority of the damage. Hope everyone walked away safely.

I washed it and put groceries in the way back under the tonneau. The little slot about 18 inches forward of the tailgate does a swell job holding a 2x6 in place so stuff doesn't slide forward when you step on the brake.

Why? They look pretty nice to me.
Didn’t like the way it fit on the rail cap. Even with there shims and different adjustments on the clamps still warped and allowed water to leak in. The quality of welds was poor on mine especially for the price. Customer service offered no real resolution but to send it back.

Ordered Metalcloak front bumper and skid, and rear bumper and rear quarter rockers for their V Day sale. Was going to go Mopar, but I wanted something US made, and couldn't put together a steel rear bumper that took the parking sensors without ordering 45 parts. I've never even seen these bumpers in person but by all accounts quality is on point. I just hope I like the looks.

Love my MC front bumper. You won’t be disappointed.

The brown suited man dropped off some goodies for the JT.
Jeep Gladiator What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK] C992DEF0-775D-4434-8290-30ED0AE081E9

Iron Rock 2” spacer lift
Rockjock carrier bearing drop
Synergy rear sway bar drop brackets (chose these over longer links as the reinforce the bracket some)

Not sure how great the trail tamer shocks will be, but for 40 extra dollars vs shock extensions I fingered the should be a little better than stock sport shocks. Also interesting with the built in bump stop to save them and they have a pretty beefy shaft.
