JCARBS - now we're cooking! Might just have to pull the trigger on these as I like the finished look over the "insert" look. Did you have to remove the entire top to install them or can they be installed from inside the vehicle?
I've had good experiences with CK products in the past, and came across these today. Was wondering if anyone has any experience with them. Look pretty nice and competitive pricing.

I have the exact same JTR (I have some mods now) but discovered that the MPGs DO improve after break-in period. I noticed an increase at about 6K miles, but that said, I'm only averaging 17 MPG. You'll hear folks on this forum talk about high teens/low twenties but I'm not sure how they're...
was at my dealer yesterday for oil change/tire rotation. Asked them again about the battery replacement. Tech stated that if I can't bring the JT in while the warning message is on the screen, then I'd have to drop it off overnight for the diagnostics/replacement. Guess I'm going to bite the...
Battery Tender makes a pigtail (call it a ring connector) that connects directly to the battery and then has a USB charging port module that connects to that. Tucks nicely under the hood and ALWAYS has charging ports at the ready w/o starting the vehicle. Also has a cap that protects from...
So I shared some ideas (wishes) of things I'd like for the holidays with my wife. Turns out, most of it has to do with the JT. Hood struts, snatch blocks, recovery strap etc. Guess I didn't realize how many Jeep things I wanted until she asked me if I was secretly building a new Jeep or...
Renegade - how long did your dealer keep you JT? I called mine about this last week and they told me they'd need my truck for 2 days to perform the diagnostics! WTF?
OP - it's pretty simple, but you have a decision to make. Check anything you signed when you placed your order. If you didn't sign anything that included the items and the dealer added them arbitrarily, they should remove them (wheels are easy, dealers change those out all the time with...
Didn't have to modify the plate at all. I DID have to ream-out the back two holes on my skid plate to put it back on after installation. Lots of things to be careful of, so check the posts in this thread for some tips. https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/posts/812314/ Good luck!
Bleda-2002: All very good points and well-taken. I encountered everything mentioned and managed to sort them out (the installation wouldn't have been possible w/o a jack and 2x4 for bumper and skid plate). A couple of additions I encountered. Note they pertain to the Warn mounting plate (P/N...
