  1. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    ShadowsPapa - I fully realize this a full blown case of case of Nunya, (as in Nun ya business) but what condition would cause your issues ? Reason I'm curious is, I've never heard of such a thing. I've been under vehicles on a creeper for so long that I had to lay my arms down so the blood...
  2. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Memory snap - While I was in the Marine Corps, my Dad was transferred to Texas. When I discharged in 1983 I went to Texas "just for the winter" (quoted because I'm still here...lol). Thanks to the popularity of Urban Cowboy, my little sister begged me to take her to Gilley's. About a 90...
  3. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Jeepmonster - I like your idea a lot !! I'm always picking leaves, stems, dead bugs out of that gap. I wondered why Jeep left such a wide gap to catch crap. Do you think slightly loosening the fender bolts, putting in the welt, then re-tightening the bolts would give longer lasting results ...
  4. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    I know it's a moot point at this stage, but how much weight did that stuff add to your bumper ? Instead of refinishing it again, would it be easier to take a belt sander to it to knock down some of the roughness ?? Mine came with the factory spray-in bedliner and when I was putting on my trail...

    NC_Overland, Nah, you still have time. Wait until you reach the age when you attempt to stand up after crawling from under a vehicle....and you fart. Didn't even know you had one loaded. My nephew once said, "Did you just do an old man fart ??" "Nah, that was my afterburner booster rocket...
  6. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    If you accidentally rub a bare leg on your bumper, you'll definitely be screaming one thing: "MEDIC !!!" :surprised: Just kidding....
  7. Remote Start Stopped Working

    I was griping to my wife about the stupid ESS and how I have to push a button every time I start my Jeep. She calmly said, "Kinda like how you have to push the Start button every time you get in the Jeep ? You don't whine about that. Why is that ESS button such a sore spot ? Push it once...
  8. Main battery and Aux Battery replacement write up

    Well, the decals on the battery say it's AGM, ACDelco web site says it's AGM, the label says ,"non-spillable", that's all I can go by.... But I did notice the two vent holes. They may be safety valves for all I know... I'm not going to try and press fit the vent plug that came on the positive...
  9. Gladiator through a car wash? Experiences?

    I noticed the antenna on mine was basically the same setup that was on my wife's 2005 Liberty Renegade. We used to take that to a car wash and the guys would always remove the antenna and stick it in the cargo area. In 2023 we sold it to a friend of mine, I reminded him about the antenna. His...
  10. Main battery and Aux Battery replacement write up

    Today I replaced both OEM Main and Aux batteries with ACDelco Pro Golds. The OEM battery had no vents, the ACDelco has two, one on each end of the battery. Of course the positive terminal shipping cover comes with one plug, but does it matter which end I plug, the positive or negative ? Would...
  11. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Well, the weather warmed up enough here for me to change out both batteries. I wanted to wait until it was at least 60* F, being 99% of the things I have to remove are plastic and I didn't want to risk snapping/breaking something then having to glue/repair/replace anything. I went over the...
  12. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    My Dad also. He was born and raised in Brooklyn. Joined the Marine Corps in 1948 at age 18. Was a pro at throwing around hyphenated curse words, almost poetic at times in his creativity. Sometimes we had no clue what he was saying, but we assumed it was a cuss word by the shaking of his legs...
  13. 3W Floor Mats Giveaway | What have you done for your Gladiator this month?

    Um, this is gonna reek of Thurston Howell the Third attitude, but the only thing I do on that list is check tire pressure. None of those other conditions apply. But if the pressure needs adjusting I do tell my wife, "Lovey, the rear tire is 4 pounds low. How droll. You can't get tires to...
  14. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    When I replaced it, I did an old trick. I poked the tip of the screw through some electrical tape, stuck the tape to the screwdriver shaft, turned the screw in a couple turns, then gave a tug. Screw stays in place, tape breaks free, pull tape off the screw driver and finish up. Pulling a...
  15. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    My used 2023 came with one screw lost. The inner screw between the filter and fan shroud. I was ordering a part anyway, so I did the "add to cart" for the screw. I think it was 3 bucks. A lot for one simple screw, but.... Amazon had a bunch for a lot cheaper, but they looked like standard...
  16. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Somewhat related to my previous post.... After I replace both batteries, do I need to do a battery registration or will the Jeep figure it out on it's own ? I'd hate to do all this and the IBS still think it has old batteries... Normally a negative cable pull for 15 minutes resets everything...
  17. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Today I took delivery of an ACDelco AGM Gold main battery and an ACDelco AGM Gold Aux battery. it was suggested on here, I can't remember by who, I used my Search Fu skills.... My batteries were just beginning to show signs, such as "Aux Switches unavailable while battery charging". I bought...
  18. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Forget about your Jeep, I'm envious in the size and amount of room in your garage !! :LOL:
  19. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Yesterday, I put some Mopar Grab Handles on the rear. Now I have them front and rear. I didn't really need them, but my wife and mother-in-law do. I decided to go Mopar instead of aftermarket for a couple reasons; I'm an OEM-look kinda guy and the aftermarket ones I was seeing were Velcro...
  20. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Yep, the windshield washer bottle logo was faded out, like it was rubbed raw or something. Struck me as odd, also. Why that ?? Everything else was pristine. I have a fat Sharpie, carefully did a couple coats letting each dry. I thought it, too, would rub off, nope. It's the attention to...
