What I’m GOING to do to my Gladiator

Got 300 some odd miles to go to finish breaking in my new gears.

Those covers are not going to fit your Gladiator with the 12 bolt AdvanTEK D44 covers. Those cover are for the older 10 Bolt D44 axles that come on the JK.

It’s from one of our chain stores up here, Canadian Tire. It’s their mastercraft maximum line
Thank you! Might have to check into ordering one……

You beat me to it. Not only are they the traditional D44 pattern (won't fit a Gladiator with the Advantek D44s) but the gasket in between them looks like a D30.

Now I’m second guessing my decision. I have a Mojave, why didn’t I get amber covers? DOH :headbang:
Which is better for dusty nights? I think I’m gonna order Amber. SMH
For me amber fogs are much better than white ones for snow, dust and rain. I highly recommend going with amber..

I have an amber led in my halogen fog housing for now, which works surprisingly well. I did order the Diode Dynamics SS3 pro kit in amber though...

I think the parts bag is covering it and making look that way. Regardless, a gasket would be the least of his worries. Hopefully he has a return window to whoever he bought them from.

I see it now. The gasket extends to the edges of the bag.

Going on our first "camping" overland trip this weekend now that the weather in the Northwest is getting better especially in Central WA. Had to make sure this setup was going to be fine. Looks like it will work out just fine....

Well, technically it was yesterday...
Added the Mopar bug deflector because the last few weeks have been REALLY bad. Drove it almost 300 miles right after installing it, and it seems to help some.

Replaced my rear shocks yesterday. Lost a seal on the passenger rear. Went ahead and upgraded both rears to the newer Icon 27727CP adjustable version and will have the old ones rebuilt for another time.
