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

[Dougstdig]

Installed some rear fender liners to help fill in the wheel well more, since I’m rocking 33’s with a 2.5” lift . (Before and after pic)

Also, found some OEM rip off tubular side steps on amazon for half the price of the OEM. I think they look great.

Liners for your liners?

I guess it’s a way to keep the factory liners clean. Looks like you’ve lost some clearance though.

No, i removed the old liner.

Added seat jackers. Haven’t driven with it, but it’s a noticeable difference just sitting in it. Will be curious to see how it translates to road trips.

RR stubby bumper fits perfectly, and real happy factory LED fogs, Warn VR10S mounted straight up, plus factory Rubi skid bolted back nicely. Love the recovery hooks and D-ring options.

Just the sensors going off.. that just sucks and I was saying wow… that’s all… have a good day

Gotcha..... yeah its a pain... because I really like the look of the hitch... I was thinking you thought it looked awkward or something.... no worries. My imoji skills are lacking.. lol

correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t the black lever raise and lower the height of the seat? Maybe it’s not enough for you taller guys? Do the brackets just raise the front and tilt you back more?

When raising the seat, it only raises the back, not the front.

Ah gotcha, I knew I was missing something

Exactly what it does. Gives it more of a bucket seat feel.

Got some new shoes, Firestone Destination MT2, 255/75/17. Someone bought a new Wrangler Willys and drove it less than 200 miles before getting 35s. I was leaning towards Kenda Klever 33x10.5x17, but $900 for 5 brand new tires was too good of a deal to pass up. The speedometer is dead on with GPS. Took very little or no weight to balance.

Those Firestones look noisy...look good but, noisy...

 

[Blue Ridge]

If you're talking about the stock Willys ones, they're not as bad as you'd think for a mud tire. Certainly not a quiet ride, but not much louder than the wind and everything else on highway. I mostly notice them when slowing down for a red light. <-edit to add, and even then it sounds like the beginning of VanHalen's Running With the Devil so I don't mind a bit.

5" off road LED lights.

Stole the idea from @Sarge502 who messaged me a bunch of photos and more info. My TRASH NFab steps were already showing many signs of rust in less than 4 months. No doubt they would have disintegrated in less than 2 years. Got the company to return them for a full refund. Bought these GoRhino RB20 Slim ones in bed liner coating as a replacement. Like most things, instructions were generic at best and were open to interpretation and a little trial and error. Quality however seems quite superior to the NFab.
