I don't usually post, but it was interesting to see the white Gladiator similar to my own. I was new to Jeeps when I bought my 2021 Sport, but after a while I decided that I looked like a dashund and needed longer legs. I went with 17x9.5 Black Rhino wheels and Maxxis 35x12.5R17 RAZR AT tyres...

I must confess that I caught the bug for after-market add-ons. In 2024 I was living in Indiana for a few months and bought a tailgate box at a good price. I managed to fly the box (still in its shipping container) from Chicago to Auckland (New Zealand) for free as a second item of check-in...

I have a gasoline 2021 Gladiator Sport. Most of my offroading is beach dunes and forest trails. I had to traverse a few stumps in the past and ended up doing some significant damage to a cross-frame and partially crushed my exhaust. So I invested in the full armour package about a year ago. I...

I guess I should start by noting that I am a first-time Jeep owner so have been asking a lot of basic questions over the last few years. When I first bought my truck I was happy, but after a while I decided that I was like a Dachshund - my legs were too short for my body. And I did some damage...

I have a Sport with non max-tow (recent photo attached). I installed 35s and a 2 inch lift and have never had any rubbing issues. A year ago (soon after the upgrade) I did a rather major road trip about 1,000 miles from home and got severe death wobbles due to some wear in steering parts. Had to...

Hi Gary. I am wondering about the Reaper tail-box. Are you happy with it? Are you getting your money's worth out of it? It seems to be on sale: https://reaperoffroad.com/jeep-gladiator-tailgate-box-2020-jeep-gladiator-jt/ but perhaps it is permenantly on sale? Cheers, Jason

Thanks for the super-quick reply Dante. Your "buyer's remore" is what I needed to hear, to yet again confirm that I will stay away from the Decked system, simply because I need all the possible space that I can access. I looked long and hard at the RSI Smart Cap system, and I also spoke to some...

Attached are a few photos of my set-up, coming at you from New Zealand. I've been interested in the Decked single-draw system for a while, given that I have a low mounted roof-top tent. The low mounting is because I can just get in my parking garage at work with about 1/2" to spare. Which is...

I'm really keen to try the single draw Decked System. It is not yet available in New Zealand but should be available in the next 6 months or so. I'd love to hear what you think - I was concerned that a lot of useful space gets lost with the original double draw system. I have the Rhino Rack...

Just an update: I now realise that Rhino-Rack is an Australian product, which probably explains why it has such a dominant presence in New Zealand. I spent hours looking at all the posts that others had made, to help me with my decisions, so a big shout out to the entire forum membership. I went...

I looked long and hard at the draw system and was worried that I was losing way too much cargo space. The local distributor in Auckland NZ even air freighted a Gladiator hardcover from the US, but then I got 'cold feet'. I really like the idea of the hard top for security purposes and being able...

Thanks Chris. I am getting the Reconn deck towers installed in a couple of days, along with an iKamper Skycamp mini roof tent. My truck came with the Mopar tonneau cover and I like the idea of keeping the tub content covered and out of sight. I've made contact with a local automotive canvas...

Hi JRobes. Yes, bought new straight from the official Jeep dealer. Which is why everyone is confused. Apparently my mechanics do not understand, the dealer does not understand, and even Jeep NZ have no answer. Of course, the next question is: how to take advantage of it if there is no wiring on...

Hi all. I thought that I might try to reactivate this discussion. I took my Gladiator Sport into my local ARB supplier (I am in Auckland, New Zealand). They opened my diff and found some sort of electronic controller present, which apparently they had never seen before, and which does not...

Hi all. This is my first post, so apologies if this question has been raised before. I have a right-hand drive 2021 Gladiator that came with carpet mats. I live in Auckland, New Zealand, so dont get snow (or slush) but I spend plenty of time in sand and mud, so I'd like some slush mats. My first...
