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

[Dougstdig]

Today I screwed up my key, while switching to AJT case. You simply can’t wiggle a weak alloy out of the housing as presented in the video. Likewise you simply can’t remove the proximity chip out of the plastic casing without some mojo surgery.
goid luck to me once the battery runs out. ?

So…did you not get 2 keys?

That's a really nice looking rig! How far outside the flares does that push on the 0mm offset? I've been looking at a set of these wheels in either +25 or 0.

Thank you very much! I actually ordered the +25mm but being that I went through the dealership they didn't listen to me and ordered the 0mm.. pretty frustrated and was going to have them order the correct ones but after taking a breather I am actually really happy with their mistake. with a 12.5 tire they stick out roughly 1 1/4". I am honestly not a fan of the poking tires which is why I was frustrated at first but I feel like its still tastefully done. I can take a picture straight down the side tomorrow if you'd like

Ya I did the whole truck and it was closer to 10

I guess I've been out of the PPF game longer than I thought or the JT is a bitch to do.

Gitcha a set of the recon fender extensions. A full set cost me about $53.

I’m sure there is a world wide shortage….

Got the ArmorLite flooring installed. Pretty good stuff, high quality. Fitment is like 98% - not entirely perfect, but good enough that you don’t really notice. The rear didn’t want to align perfectly over the drain holes, but again close enough that I could get the plugs in.

Cant live without it

Can you explain why and when you need this and also a link for it. I understand drive line angle but is there a certain lift height that this is needed?

Thank you!

Anything over 2" would probably benefit. Over 3-4" and you really should be doing. At some height you're just replacing the driveshaft.

I need to extend my rear axle and tip it forward some, so this will help me get a few more degrees out of it to better align the springs.

Those look knarly.

Yet they drive great, smooth and surprisingly quiet!

Like he said above.
AEV includes one with their 2” spacer lift; they wouldn’t do that unless it served a purpose.

The Kilmat made a Huge Difference is Sound!
Had to adjust the Base down on the Eq! ?Awesome difference!

I didn't do Coverking headliner but I did do the Mopar headliner without any Kilmat or Dynamat and my factory Alpine stereo sounds 100% better and the interior is much quieter traveling down the interstate. Makes me wonder how much better it may have been had I used the Kilmat. But honestly, I am quite pleased as is.

Full disclosure, I did this some weeks ago, but it's actually one of my favorites.

Installed the visor braces off Amazon ... cheap insurance for a part that's bound to fail.

Tried to install my Rancho rear shock mount skid plates, but was defeated. I couldn't compress the Fox shocks (that come with the MOPAR 2" lift) by myself without a jack, and with is I couldn't line the parts up. When I have an extra pair of hands I'm sure it will go easier.

Most quotes were higher. That includes a 5 year ceramic coating as well. But he did mention how much of a pain it was. After speaking with him and looking at the panels I see why. What I thought would be a easy boxy truck actually has many odd curves and a lot of hardware that sticks out. i.e. hinges.

What brand are these?

Added a little more bed lighting to the set up. DB with solid products as usual.
