I had Linex in my new 2008 Chevy 3500HD dually and my 2014 GMC 2500HD Denali. To me it's the best, hands down. BUT, I priced it for my Rubicon last summer and they quoted me $650 and the Gladiator has a tiny bed compared to my prior trucks. I can afford it but I didn't WANT to afford it. I had...

If it were mine (I'd have NEVER run through mud with the doors off in the 1st place. Hell. I'd probably not do it with the doors ON!) I'd either tuck a drop cloth in around the seats and wash it off with a soaking towel, or if its really bad, take the passenger seat out.

Combo plate! Not sure if this belongs here and/or the "What Did You Do WITH Your Gladiator Today" thread. Picked up our three folding tables and 14 folding chairs from my daughter's house. Then stopped off at The Hat (pastrami) for lunch and came out to find this Granite Sport near me.

I don't think Jeep windshields are any more "trash" than any other manufacturer's windshield. What is bad is the dead flat design which doesn't allow a rock or whatever to hit slightly askew and NOT break the glass. The fantasy that Jeeps are still WWII Jeeps-connected keeps them from making a...

I'm on this thread somewhere. Safelite wanted an exorbitant amount to replace mine. I don't remember exactly but I think it was like $850!! I would have done it too as I've never had a broken windshield on any car before in my life BUT... apparently Jeeps are subject to this over and over. Why...

Exactly. Are we really so juvenile to smirk about another manufacturer's problems? It's not like Jeep has never had a serious problem with their vehicles. Sheesh you guys.

Oh ok, got it. If you didn't bust your own knuckles, spill some blood then you're not a "real" jeep person. Right. I'll try to remember that. Sheesh

Agree. It's a very short sighted and dumb dealer management that angers its customers. They have hundreds if not thousands of customers. Just makes no sense to give them cause to complain. It never did and ESPECIALLY now in a world full of social media.

Why does anyone CARE if you, me, or anyone else pays to have work done on THEIR vehicle? If you think it results in having to fix it later you obviously went to the wrong place.

I'd forgotten I posted to this thread. I', curious too as to whether he installed these and the outcome. The Quadratec listing says, "Unlike other kits, Select Increments does not require cutting of the factory sound bar." Then down below under Installation Difficulty it cautions, "Pods Require...

I get what you're saying but the truth is we all have time for whatever we DECIDE we have the time for and the desire to do. It's just not as important for you as some other things you prefer to do. I can relate. Right now my garage needs clean up and a bit of reorganization. I have stuff I...

I tried that. I asked for a boatload of money, car, computer, phone, etc and they said yes to all of it. I'd been the client all my working life. Came back as a contractor on a large rail project here in L.A. and HATED it. I last a few months and quit. I'm kinda embarrassed by it but VERY glad...

I don't share all you guys apparent default opinion that "ALL dealers are "scum". ALL anything isn't one thing. Nothing like categorical thinking to eliminate the possibility of actually THINKING. People are people, some good, some not so good and a (very) few truly bad - we just hear about...

I'm right behind you, buddy. I'll be 68 in December. Ha, I work MYSELF like a "rented mule". Mostly I don't mind working daily in my yard or garage. I'm never lacking for things to do unlike a lot of retired guys complain. Can't believe it's coming on 5 years since I did it! Hmmm, ^^THIS^^...

Good to know, thanks for the info. I assume it'll be rolled up when it arrives and plan to lay it out in the sun a few hours to get it to relax (fingers crossed). Does the raised edge fit tightly around the perimeter? If it doesn't I suppose I can MAKE IT with a heat gun and a little persuasion.

This. It's supposed to arrive tomorrow - fingers crossed. I can afford to have my bed Linex'd but why? SIX HUNDRED-FIFTY dollars was the quote. That's ridiculous. I've been using a big piece of cardboard on the bed floor til it got wet. Threw it out, washed & dried bed today as prep for...

Glad your son and his son are ok. Coulda been a LOT worse.

In the past I worried a little about forcing caliper pistons back on a car with ABS but I've never had a problem with a car I've done it on. 25,000 miles to flush fluid? Some places online say about every 5 years, other say about 25,000 miles. Yikes! SIXTY THOUSAND miles on front pads? Man...

I was about to post it looks like a modern day take on the 60's Meyers Manx dune buggies. I wonder if it's just looks or was anything done to it to make it actually capable of light off-road duties? EDIT: I see coilover shocks, wheel arches cut for clearance, much bigger wheels & tires, bigger...

They'll match their own online price if you show them? Excellent!
