Were you at Trailtoyz this past wednesday? I think i saw a Rubicon Gladiator parked next to mine as i was leaving... I had to get back home since i was on company time, so i couldn't stick around to say hi.

I think a group tried to go out this weekend, I haven't seen any updates on it yet. Wonder if they made it. I'm breaking in some new gears, so no wheeling until then. Too cold for me to do any camping in the winter... need a working toilet :LOL:

another trip t Knik Glacier, didn't make it. Turned around at Wolfe Creek after a RAM Power wagon broke through the ice. Had a bit of a warm spell, so a lot of snow melt and ice. most would recommend not even trying... but we had an experienced group and called it when things got sketchy. Jim...

Regear to 4.88's are done, and while he was at it, had him install new diff covers: dana spicers in blue:

Went off-roading over the weekend...Jim's Creek-Palmer AK. It's supposed to be winter and covered in snow... more ice and very slippery. almost like being on a disneyland autopia ride...just kinda let go of the steering wheel and let the trail lead the way.

Do you have a link? I looked and saw Rubicon only... i have an Overland as well. Also considering the American Adventure Labs too.

Installed Redline hoodlifts and will be dropping off my jeep for gears swap to 4.88s. Also, will be getting new differential covers: Front & rear

As i was shopping for 37's, my shop guy says he wished he went 5.13's for 37's vs 4.88s. I ended going 35's, so i'll be going 4.88s.

I get my redline kit sometime today...two 1/2 weeks late too. How do you like it?

I just 35's, was thinking going with 37's and 5.13 gears...but after mocking up a 37 and thinking of my current setup... it'll be tight. I just have 2.5" leveling lift on front. I just don't have the budget to go higher right now. on 3.73, i only see 8th when on perfectly flat with a tailwind...

I've seen that before. I can't remember the exact price, but i thought for that amount, it's almost cheaper to just get bed-liner done.

the 2021's have the option for the Select-trac all the time 4wd. i miss it from my JGC... not going to take the hit though, so making due. I've already spent a bundle for the various parts i've changed. If only they had a rubicon was on the lot when i picked my overland. it was a vehicle...

After a couple weeks of trying to decide, 35" BFG KM3's installed. Will be going in for a gear swap to 4.88.s. Almost got 37's but too much had to be done for that to work.

Here they are:

I ran into all these issues when i tried to use a Tekonsha and Curt wired brake controllers over a year ago when i first purchased my Gladiator. Read about the diode thingy in another forums post and decided to wait the winter before trying again. Saw someone buying the Curt Blutooth brake...

Talk to Joe @ Midnightsun Metalworks in Wasilla AK. He has a facebook page for the company.

Here's a pic before they were installed...

I'll try over the weekend. ground is a little cold, and I'm not as young as i used to be!

All painted and back on the JT. I'm likin it a lot!!! Thanks Joe @ Midnightsun Metalworks.

:( I think I'll hold off as long as I can before going for the hiperformanceglass option.
