JeepDaddyJT, You have definitely earned the award for best Gladiator Cap of the Year! So much hard work. Resourceful and a healthy dose of knowing and honoring the proper lines of a jeep. Job Well Done brotha. It might be time to talk to Dave over at AEV and see if he's got a slot for ya on the...

I'm still looking for a red A.R.E. Topper for the Gladiator. Send me a PM if you know of one, I appreciate it.

Looking for same red ARE CX cap for Gladiator, willing to pay a fair price and pick it up east of the Mississippi.

I have a perspective that I don't think I have ever seen posted in any of the hundreds of diesel jeep threads I have read over the 15 years of waiting and 2 years of owning. It all starts with Crude. Crude Oil is the raw material which gets pumped out of the ground, shipped around the world, and...

Greetings from Shore Drive. I will be looking into and joining up with any groups for trail rides to Peter's Run, or Uwharrie. Actually any Jeep'Fest events are fun too. Here are a few pix. So is it just me, or does these trucks look even better with some junk in the trunk?!!

13k miles in 6 months. 2 Badge of Honor trail rides, Obstacle Courses, National Parks, Surf fishing expeditions that involved taking a ferry just to getaway from it all…. and like John Lennon said: “There are no problems, only solutions”. No leaks No problems Mopar lift works great on 37s...

Seriously that is a whole lotta hassle for a brand new rig. Glad you got it worked out.

So let's not forget what forum we are on. This is a Jeep forum, and if there is any group of vehicle owners who will do whatever it takes to increase any aspect of their vehicles performance or capacity... its a bunch of jeepers. So what would it take? Dana 60's would be plenty to go up to 1...

There's a company from down-under called "The Long Ranger" and they have been making auxiliary tanks for installation between the framerails where it belongs. It's an additional 18 gallons of gasoline. I don't see a diesel version yet. http://thelongranger.com.au/jeep/gladiator/jt/petrol/ta89p...

I searched 6 pages of this thread and have not found this request yet: Snorkel (aka: high air intake) for the EcoDiesel 3.0L. Hopefully MOPAR can come up with something sleek and multi-purpose. Why not look at utilizing that fake fender vent just behind the drivers side front wheel as the...

I have seen this awesome Gladiator near UCF multiple times. It really is every bit quality.

How about cutting out all the DEF and extra exhaust garbage between the manifold and muffler... for the states that don’t require that stuff. On the other end of the spectrum: what does it take to increase the functional limit of payload and towing? I’m modifying this thing, so “E” rated tires...

To those who say “Nay” to diesel ROI, I have 3 questions: 1.) How many jeeps have you owned AND lifted/modified? (Less than 1 you are disqualified) 2.) How much did you really really spend on getting the performance back to stock 0-60 times? (Again if less than $250 you are disqualified) 3.)...
