I ordered an E-Track system that I’m going to bolt to the 2’x12’. System rails, and anchors clips came to $72. 2’x12’ will run me about $15. $10 for can of bed spray and I have a system for tie downs for less than $100. Cool that you were up here! I just picked up my Gladiator today! I’m in...

Ok. Google is a great thing! A PDI and sticker/plastic removal and thorough washing seems it takes a few hours, if your service department isn’t backed up- and ours is pretty busy most of the time.

Oh, and it wasn’t for registration and all that bs. The registration is already done. He said, "the guys need to get it prepared from the factory" - or something close to that.

Hi. I took a look at this thread because I’m picking up my Gladiator today! I’m wondering - what does the dealership do? They wouldn’t let me come in and pick it up when it came off the truck. They told me the service guys had to get it ready. Ok. How? Thanks.

Awesome! Thanks for the info. I was just about to order a mounting plate! I’m so psyched! My Gladiator is finally at the dealership!

I would hope not! I was able to order the 2020 at the end of June. It’s a Rubicon with manual tranny. It’s supposed to be here by the end of the week! From what I’ve been reading, it was a good thing I didn’t want to wait for the 2021 diesel. It looks like they’re going to have even less tow...

Did you use the Badlands winch plate with that? I have the stock steel bumper and am wondering how much a difference the winch plate can make. $49 for the Badlands winch mount. $150+ for everything else I’ve seen.

Are you telling me they haven’t fixed this issue yet? They had recalls out for that issue for months now. They built me one that still has the same issue?

can anybody tell me why the tow rating drops 2500 lbs for the JTR when you switch from aurmatic transmission to manual transmission?

Well...sometimes miracles DO happen. I started out out by asking my wife, "Remember how we talked about downsizing the camper...?" She actually took the news well. We won’t be doing any serious road travel with a camper for another couple of years when I retire, so in the meantime we can either...

I just read in the manual that Rubicon with manual transmission max tow capacity is 4500 pounds. Is this true? And why is the manual the first place I saw this? When building it at Jeep.com it states that the max tow for Rubicon is 7000 lbs. It doesn’t state anywhere in the builder that it would...

‘And yes..let’s not a bad idea to practice ahead of time.

It looks like the OP already made up his mind, but here’s my $.02: My first serious off road was in a FrankenJeep CJ7 with a Ford T18 granny tranny (boy has the meaning of THAT phrase changed in the past decade or two). It was pretty difficult to stall out in Granny Gear. FrankenJeep could...

Cool. I can collect then. :LOL: And by then I should have some trails to show you if you’re up for it! Although, as of today we’d have to go to a place where we can order food as well as drinks... Cuomo is shutting down bars that don’t serve food...

Hmm... I see what you mean. It’ll be a close thing even at an angle. I’ll take you up on that bet, though. I’ll let you know when it comes in!

I do have the tonneau cover, which is why I’m looking for solutions that won’t cost $200 per board.

Or perhaps these mounted on the divider board two-to-a-side...

No. I’m thinking a 2” x 12” board divider to mount things to, like a molle panel, but made of wood. I’m also wondering if E track end sockets would help in some way. I can’t wait until my Gladiator comes in next week so I can do some actual experimenting.

Hi. Any reason not to step it up one more size to 2”x12”?

Great pictures at the end of the PDF as well!
