  1. Some photos of our Gladiator in the mountains

    Hardtop wedge or clamshell type tents definitely help with wind IF you point the shell into the wind. You'll still get fabric flapping around, but it's not as bad. What sucks is when the wind shifts in the middle of the night and you're scrambling in the dark in your boxers trying to get your...
  2. AccuAir Suspension new to the forum!

    Not a question, more of a request, but please release a rear only kit for the Gladiator diesel. I don't need all four corners, I need rear air for leveling under heavy loads and towing while still working with my front lift springs. You have a 4 corner diesel kit, you have a gasser rear only...
  3. P00AF - The Journey

    what does the rear cap or air suspension have to do with an engine replacement? Also, what air suspension and how do you like it? I've been contemplating the rear only kit from Accuair, even though they don't offer it for the diesel (unsure why, guessing DEF tank is in the way of the compressor...
  4. Will High Altitude fenders fit on a Rubicon?

    As far as I know it should. You can swap high line fenders onto those without, so I don't see why it wouldn't work the other way around. I would ask this though, do you see any off road use? Even with RokBlok flaps my black plastic fenders take a serious beating from dirt and rocks. I'm rather...
  5. New 2.0 Hurricane Turbo 4 engine announced (324 hp / 332 lb-ft)

    Lets be honest, if someone is really serious about crawling and wants to idle around, engine is going to have little to do with it and they should be looking at tcase and gearing.
  6. New 2.0 Hurricane Turbo 4 engine announced (324 hp / 332 lb-ft)

    The only argument might be the 392 is maintaining torque longer, but the new 2.0 might be better in that aspect as well being a variable vane depending on flow rates. (claimed 90% torque up to 5600 rpm) Now in all honesty I'd still rather have the 2.0 power curve because I can better use the...
  7. JTdiRtyD ever changing build, trip reports, and BS thread

    Wow, I've been slacking. I thought I had posted about our Utah trip, but I guess not. I'm a federal worker, so this whole shutdown has my brain distracted with still working but not getting paid, so I've been forgetting a lot this month (anniversary, appts, etc). Anywho, every year my buddy and...
  8. Stellantis aux switch survey

    What does it say or ask? I wonder if they are re-evaluating if the switches are worth the production cost, or looking at a redesign.
  9. Building dry food storage into drawers. How to seal in smells?

    Not bad suggestions and would work great for short or weekend trips, but not practical for us. This is for long, multiple weeks, sometimes month long trips (I will update the original post with this detail). We buy groceries multiple times on the road, we don't always have the means nor do we...
  10. Stellantis aux switch survey

    Mine doesn't have them either. At first I wanted them, but then I found the VOSwitch 6 button panel thats easier to install and isn't dependent on aux battery status, so thats the route I'll end up going soon.
  11. New 2.0 Hurricane Turbo 4 engine announced (324 hp / 332 lb-ft)

    Don't you love it when people immediately hate on something new, especially when you're talking smaller displacement and adding a spinny thing that makes woosh noises? Todays 4 cyl's are not what they were 20 years ago in your clapped out shitbox Cavalier. Todays turbos are not what they were...
  12. def tank relocation for triangulated 4 link setup

    @TheSolarWizard mentioned not too long ago that Rustys design was causing some issues. https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/learn-me-please-triangulated-4-links.93284/#post-1499618
  13. Bed dust sealing?

    I've got a 3M adhesion promoter that I originally bought for a trunk lid spoiler on an old car of mine. I've used it for other weather stripping in the past and it worked great (almost too good), so I think I'm going to keep playing with different types of bulbs until I find that ideal seal, and...
  14. What did you do WITH your Gladiator today?

    How do you like your Flyer? We are between a Flyer Pursue or an Encore ROG 12RK.
  15. Bed dust sealing?

    No kit specific to Gladiators. You can get ESI Ultimate Tailgate Seal kits off amazon and at your local auto parts stores. They work ok, but our gates have bigger than normal gaps at the upper and lower corners. I've gone through 2 kits now trying to get my tailgate sealed up and it's still not...

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

    When I had my Tacoma I brought it into a place that put it on a hoist and cleaned the whole underside. I asked them if it was an issue that this truck has been off road in some messy places and they said no. They showed me photos of some of the trucks they had done and the piles of dirt and crap...
  18. Building dry food storage into drawers. How to seal in smells?

    For reference, my plan is to build two side by side drawers, with one drawer for kitchen/food, and the other drawer for tools and gear. The whole drawer assembly being as wide as it can be between the wheel wells and roughly 12 inches tall. On top of the drawer assembly will be a slide out...
  19. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    I need to undercoat mine still, but I'll bring it somewhere. Thats just too much messy work on the shop floor for me.
  20. Scat pack seats fit Gladiator?

    With the right tools and resources you can make anything fit. As long as width and height wise you have room, it's usually pretty easy to make seats fit any vehicle. Wiring in the heaters and plumbing the cooling will take some work as it's extremely unlikely the connectors will be the same...
