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

[The White Rabbit]

Put on some Mopar beadlock wheels and 35” BFG’s waiting for rings to come back from powder coater.

Finally pulled the trigger on the 41.22 Hitch Slider and Locking Pin. The precision is impeccable.

Went from factory ride height to a the metacloak 3.5” true dual rate. Took me the better part of 8-9 hours total work time. Three hours Friday night, 9am to 4pm with an hour break in between. Worth it.

That’s going to be me one of the next weekends...
I have a 3.5” rough country spring lift and Core 4x4 front and rear track bars to install. ?
You’ve got a nice looking truck. Mine is white also.

The Molle panel was cut on my friends CNC plasma table, its just some 10 gauge steel, nothing to special, easy enough to bend with a brake.
I also designed a triple gauge holder in Fusion360 for my 1989 Honda Civic hatchback. For this one I took a picture of the adapter that held the aftermarket radio in the din slot then brought it into Fusion360.
Once the design was done, I sent it off to another friend of mine who owns a 3d printer and he popped this out for me.

when you wrote “triple gauge holder”, I was thinking “this guy has a sweet shotgun/weapon!” Those things are expensive!!
Nice gauge cluster tho!

You keep good company.

Bought the Tuwa Pro Moab Bed Rack system for my wife as a Mother's Day gift. Just got it installed today.
Also, she had to have decals for the front cove. That's what we did to our Gladiator today.

How do you like the rack? I'm looking at the same one.

 

[The Welsh Griffin]

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.

NewgladdyOWNR, I'm curious about your window vents visors, are you happy with them. Do they keep the wind noise down? What brand? The color matches really nice ?

 

[Animal]

ok you have my attention.
So can you send the fusion 360 stuff to a 3D printer?

Here's a seat back molle panel I designed in fusion360 and printed. Definitely worth the time to learn it!

Can you take a back side pic? Seriously did I just write that? Really tho. From behind??

Pulled the stock one off and mounted this one in less than an hour and a half. The new wheels and tires go on Friday morning.

I’ll get you one when I get a chance.

Just picked up my gladiator from regearing to 4.88s. it's so much better with the 35s. So glad I regeared. Still waiting long term tests, but I was averaging 20 mpg on the way home and no more hunting for gears.

I also had a e-locker installed, but unfortunately the shop put it in the rear axle instead of the front like I specified. I wanted in the front since I already had a LSD in the rear. The shop said they would fix it by installing a locker in the front at 50% off and no labor.

Installed new rear bump stops.

I know that's a good deal, but what if you didn't want to spend the extra money? Would they have put it they way you asked for free? I know it's more work for them, but dang.
