I don't know what the OP qualifies as "supple" but the tires could definitely be the only thing he needs to change. I have found mine rides better when I run the tires at around 33 psi vs the 37 psi that is stated on the door frame.
In all seriousness to the OP, I have Gorilla Glass from the factory in my Gladiator. It was a $195 option at the time. I have taken a few hits that probably would have cracked a standard windshield over the past year. I wouldn't pay more than what I paid for the option from the factory...
I have the Quadratec dead pedal. It essentially has a hinge at the top so you can lift it out of the way to fully extend your leg if needed.
This was the first mod I bought and I feel is a necessity if driving for an extended time period.
Nice video!
Any idea what street they start the beach crawl? I know it is all down at the inlet area, just curios how long the Jeep parade on the beach is. My in-laws have a house in OCMD so we were down there for the week leading into Jeep weekend, but had to leave Saturday since the kids...
The number one thing would be as @polarisTXguy said is the noise. Not sure how much you would care about that. It doesn't bother me as I didn't buy a Jeep for a quiet cabin and I don't think it is really that loud. I had some wind noise when I first installed it, but has not been bad once I got...
The installation instructions provided were the not the best, however if you have had a jeep with a soft top before it is easy enough to figure out. The door surround hardware took the longest to put together and was the most trouble. I actually put them together incorrectly at first and had to...
I own the Rugged Ridge version. While there are some shortcomings, I was aware of them from reading reviews prior to purchasing. I am only using it for summers and will probably be putting my hardtop back on this weekend. It works well for a summer top and I ran it mostly in safari mode with the...
i got my Jeep in February. Had it less than a week and a 4 inch piece of solid ice flew off the truck in front of me and hit square on my GG windshield. No damage other than a small mark that wiped away. I was glad I had that day. If that would have hit the windshield on my other car I would...
I don't own motorcycles so I am not familiar with the motorcycle vehicle code. Knowing how backwards PA is they may be required to have doors. In all seriousness there are plenty of discussions on this forum as well as the Wrangler forum regarding doors off in PA if you are curious to search...
Wow, what a steal at $12.50. I am willing to bet these weren't on your wife's CX-5 at delivery. Now if they were genuine Mazda dice valve stem caps I might buy them for $12.

I tried to stop reading that thread, but it just kept bringing me back in. Wanted to have a little fun since I won't be getting those minutes of my life back.
I went to air down my tires to drive on the beach last weekend and I noticed that both valve stem caps on the passenger side tires were missing.
I was going to take the caps that were on my son's bicycle since they looked the same, but I wasn't sure if they would maintain my tires at 48psi...

This is what I use. Since I don't leave the doors off for extended periods of time I couldn't justify paying a lot for mirrors. I think I paid $7.99 each with free prime shipping from Amazon.
Are you sure you didn't order the Family Truckster instead of the Antarctic Blue Sports Wagon?
In all seriousness, I think the dealer sold you a Gladiator that had been on their lot for a while instead of the actual vehicle you ordered. Did they give you a VIN # a few days after you place the...
Both companies are owned by Truck Hero and It appears to be the same top based upon the pictures, but costs $1100 vs $970 for the Rugged Ridge.
You should message Real Truck to see if he is still running the forum special. He posted about in one of the other threads about this top. His special...
I purchased mine about a month ago from @RealTruck. He was running a forum special on this top. Not sure if he is still running that offer, but you could message him to ask.
I was really unsure about ordering this top, but with his forum special price and also getting the $100 Rugged Ridge...
