  1. Louisiana FREE Rubicon plastic bumper (no fog lights) and steel skid plate (no brackets)

    I installed an aftermarket winch bumper and would like to get rid of the old plastic Rubicon bumper. The aftermarket bumper came with a skid plate so the factory steel Rubicon skid plate is also available. The aftermarket bumper reused the factory LED fog lights and the skid plate mounting...
  2. Camping with your Gladiator

    It's a Smittybilt Overlander XL Gen 2 - pretty good quality and features for the price point!
  3. Camping with your Gladiator

    In the first pic, the tent is mounted to a high-end, fully custom rack that definitely isn't made of scrap 2x4's and plywood and halfassedly mounted to the trail rail system in the bed lol. In the second pic, the tent is mounted to a Hooke Road, mid-height bed rack that is supposed to go on a...
  4. So what did you name your Gladiator?

    Researched some Roman history and found the term "rudis" which was a small wooden sword that was awarded to prolific gladiators after being granted their freedom (Jeep actual gave these out to the people who purchased the Launch Editions). So, since it's a Gladiator and owning a Jeep is all...
  5. Camping with your Gladiator

    The Gladiator really helps out with the whole social distancing thing...
  6. Hooke Road products ?

    I got a bed rack from them (made for a new Tacoma but it works great on a Gladiator) and installed a RTT along with some other accessories and took it on a 4,000 mile roadtrip which the rack handled with ease. I was surprised with how well made the rack was with it being an unfamiliar company...
  7. Rugged Ridge Venator with Arcus Hoop

    You can remove the wings that extend out toward the fenders, but it leaves the fog lights exposed and a really unfinished look that I would not recommend. I would imagine that Rugged Ridge would have the foresight enough to expect people wanting that versatility and produce some small caps to...
  8. Rugged Ridge Venator with Arcus Hoop

    I was kind of in the same boat between stubbies and this one with the "OEM" style you mentioned; have been pretty happy with it thus far!
  9. Rugged Ridge Venator with Arcus Hoop

    Wanted a hoop with the Venator but the I wasn't really feeling the option they had for it and it wasn't available anyway so I took a shot on the Arcus hoop and, with some minor mods to the Venator brackets, it fits perfect and I'm happy with how it turned out. The "mods" made to the Venator...
  10. Louisiana Plastic Rubicon Bumper and Skid Plate (No Lights) - $50

    Put on an aftermarket bumper/skid plate and don't need the stock components anymore. Comes with most hardware (reused some stock fasteners as a preference to aftermarket ones). Does NOT come with fog lights or wiring harness. Prefer texting to calls; (570)404-6161. - Taylor
  11. Smittybilt X20 12K Synthetic Deal

    Thanks! I'll try to remember to take some pics when I fab up a cover - still trying to decide between light gauge steel or fiberglass.
  12. Smittybilt X20 12K Synthetic Deal

    I always forget to take pictures whenever I'm fabbing something up so this is the best I can do until I get back on dry land. Color legend as follows: - blue: bracket - red: ctrl box (plug and wireless rocker switch facing up) - orange: screws/bolts - green: wires to ctrl box You lose the...
  13. Smittybilt X20 12K Synthetic Deal

    Unfortunately, I just got out to the rig for the next 2 weeks so won't be able to get any pics of the setup for a while.
  14. Smittybilt X20 12K Synthetic Deal

    For those with the Rugged Ridge bumpers worried about the ctrl box rubbing on the grille in the center mount position, I worked up a small bracket to hide the box under the top cover plate on the driver's side. Next step is to fab up a cover plate to hide it completely.
  15. 7 months later Jeep sent me a Launch Edition Gladiator Sword

    That's awesome! I actually named my Sting Gray JTR, Rudi, after this exact thing; nailed it!
  16. Smittybilt X20 12K Synthetic Deal

    That's an insane deal; thanks for the heads up! You just helped my wife find my Christmas present lol!
  17. What bumper/hoop combos interfere with trail cam/adaptive cruise ctrl?

    Man, I didn't even think about that and I think you're right; would make a lot more sense with them being separate packages. Whoops!
  18. What bumper/hoop combos interfere with trail cam/adaptive cruise ctrl?

    Thanks for the feedback; great looking rig btw! I didn't even think about the light aspect of it, but great to know a setup like this works; I would have definitely thought so at first glance.
  19. Dobinsons Gladiator Build [SEMA 2019]

    The rear camera likes it too; just look how closely it's looking at it!
  20. What bumper/hoop combos interfere with trail cam/adaptive cruise ctrl?

    Saw some good looking bumpers through the SEMA coverage but had some concerns about a few of the hoops blocking the trail cam or interfering with the adaptive cruise ctrl. Has anyone encountered this after installing a specific bumper/hoop combo? Thanks! Edit: I mistakenly thought the trail cam...
