STING GRAY Gladiator JT Club

[Strider62]

Mine ready for work and other things here in Central Texas.

That's the Smittybilt SRC Gen 2 bumper, right? I'm really leaning toward that for my truck. How do you like it? Which winch? Any chance of a couple of pics from different angles - head-on, and perpendicular to the grill so I can get an idea of the angle of the bull bar and distance from the grill? Thanks!

Picked up a ours last month

So far we have only installed a Tri Fold Hard Cover

WE also created a a head rest panels and installed them in our Gladiator.

My issue is where to mount my front bumper on a heavy duty bumper with a winch. Texas requires a front bumper. I need to keep it out of the way of the winch.

Not trying to be a jerk....perpendicular to the grill would be head on. parallel is what you're looking for.

Do you mean license plate? If so, there are multiple options for license plate brackets, not necessarily made for your bumper but can you drill and bolt to it on either side of your fairlead?
Im in CA and a front license plate is required as well. When I had my 370Z I never installed one and fortunately had never been pulled over for it.
Now with my new bumper there’s no provision for a license plate but if need be I can drill and mount as theres enough real-estate for it, heck, even on the downsloping side will work.

Anyone interested in the Mopar tonneau cover? I decided to go with a trifold instead of the rollup.

Sting Gray looks sweet with our bikes, had a great day on the trails

Just got my new 37' Yokohama's and SCS K5 wheels mounted up today, stock/no lift. Waiting on the remainder of my Rock Krawler lift to show up, hopefully before christmas so I can install during my time off.

 

[Red Hot Sloth]

Oh man, those wheels, very nice.

Oh man, those wheels, very nice.

Thanks. Very happy with how they turned out on the truck.
I was all over the place deciding on wheels but fell back to these Stealth Custom Series K5's after telling myself I didn't actually need the big heavy/badass 50lb beadlocks on my DD, these are only 25lbs each, I measured a stock take-off at 27lbs this afternoon. Total weight with the 37s on these wheels was 104lbs, stock was 89lbs.
I think the simple look of a nice 5 spoke wheel blends in and compliments things vs grabbing all the attention. SCS is pretty big in the Toyota crowd but not so much with the Jeep crowd so these are fairly rare too which I like.

I ran a set of SCS Ray 10s on my Tacoma for a few years. Now I have a set of Icon Rebounds sitting in the garage and you have me regretting not getting the K5s like I had planned

Yeah I still have an 08 Tacoma with Ray10's on it as well. Love them. The new BR6 Toyota wheel is looking pretty nice as well, almost like a 6 spoke version of the K5's

My girl is mostly stock for now. Softopper and Rokblokz mudflaps added. Also have a set of Icon Rebounds waiting for tires in the garage

Picked up my JTR last Tuesday... So far so good. Definitely going to look at getting a rear cover. Still debating which lift/tire combo to go with at the moment.
