Added some hood decals to give my JT a little color. I am a Bama grad and die hard fan. Decals compliments of Pixeldecals.com

Razorback red runs through my veins, but those are nice.?

Do you have pictures with the awning opened? I went to their website and saw they had 2 different 180 awnings. Do you know much it weights? I couldn't see anything on their website.

Website says 53.35 lbs. By the way. The quality of their stuff is really nice. I've had several conversations with Ash at OVS over the phone and she is super friendly and knowledgeable of their products.

Hi gang! First post! Been lurking...I have a 2020 jeep gladiator overland and was curious if anyone knew the screw size to the airbox...I am putting a new air filter on the jeep and noticed one of the 4 retaining screws was missing...not a big deal but an easy fix if anyone knows the size.

thanks!

BTW, the whistle fix on this thread has been a lifesaver!

Been conflicted on buying new wheels and tires or just saving the money and being happy with what I have. I’ve already done 35s and aftermarket wheels on my previous gladiator and have been considering my options on this JT as I have owned this one for a year and am getting a little bored. In an effort to save money, I decided to go a cheaper route and try out some wheel spacers and see if the new look satisfied my yearning for something different. So here is my JT with 1.5” wheel spacers. The tires are what I’ve been running, 285x70x17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers and the wheels are the stock Willy’s (also launch edition) wheels. I am happy with the result. The first 2 pictures are front end without spacers and then with spacers. The 3rd and 4th pictures are the rear without and the. With spacers.

Hard to tell since your before and after pics are apposing sides, but it looks like you need to center your front and rear axles a little.

Great pics of the tires and the sticker looks good except for that ”A”. All my money goes to the Dawgs Thanks to one of my boys. No new JT parts for another 6 months. Lol.

I've been driving around for a year on 35s and 4:88 gears, without reprogramming the computer. Finally got around to that today. Not sure if it will make any difference, but I will see. Also, replaced the cabin air filter. Super exciting stuff.

Benny @AllMoparParts.com can probably answer this for you.

I was at the Arkansas game in Tuscaloosa. You guys are really good. What a difference Pittman has made. I'm sure you are excited about the future.

@Cavitt that was a legitimate concern of mine but I did not have to do any trimming. Now bear in mind, I used my factory wheels and on the back there is a recess on the wheel that sits in the same location opposite the slightly longer lug that made accommodations for the length of the lug so that the wheel could sit flush against the spacer.

Thanks for the pictures. Looks good

Very much so. And that recruiting class the basketball team has for next year is looking pretty tough.
Love SEC sports.
Side note: my daughter sent me to this year’s Daytona 500 as a retirement present. I plan on hitting up that little ol’ track y’all have there in Alabama before too long too. Think the name of it is DALEadega!

Thanks! I bought the 1.75" spacers and haven't put them on yet. I'd prefer to have a little less spacer if possible. I'll check for the recess in my factory wheel before adding the larger spacers. I appreciate your help.

In Pennsylvania, it's illegal to run spacers. If you get caught at State Inspection with them, you will fail. Plus, it's also illegal to have your tires more than one inch outside the fender lines.

I did get lucky one year...I had 1/2" spacers in my slightly lifted 2008 GC Overland (Hemi) and the garage where I had the inspection done didn't see them. I'm sure if they were bigger, they'd've gotten noticed.

I would love to know your thoughts on the 4:88 swap with 35's. Pros? Cons? Do you tow with it?
