Here we are on the way out of Poison Spider, The back bumper was a little longer than a lot of these drops would have liked.

I'll get you some interior photos this week, It is a mess right now with stuff. Ill clean it up a bit before posting those so you can see it better.

A few shots on the rocks.

Time for the reveal, have had it on the trail all day! We had the truck in the air a few times and it handled it like a champ. No squeaks, binding etc. I think I’ll add some taller springs for Baja driving in the future, we had a few harder landings, but in general it was like a Cadillac over...

The top is built and ready for paint. Paint went down great. Parts all fit well.

These are super cool are any of them yours? I have thought about getting an old Wagoneer as well, but have never driven one. I would be interested how they feel and drive now that they have aged.

I was able to score a JK Rubicon Recon front bumper on our local classifieds for $400 with endcaps and LEDs and took the risk to put it on the JT. Fortunately, the JK front bumper bolted right on. I was surprised that teh frame rails are teh same at the front and it made me wonder what other...

Here is a shot with out the roof last fall. I was amazed how much stiffer the additional cage made the tuck. The steering seems a little tighter as well. Here is a quick build on the 3rd row cage. Looking to keep the truck looking OEM I decided I wanted to go with as many stock parts as I...

Thank you for the comment. I actually tested the flex before starting the build and with the additional roll cage installed it’s very minimal. I have done several crawling activities as well as moved some heavy loads of wood and tested flex fully loaded have had a good experience so far. Also in...

Hey Guys, It has been a while, but now that we have had some time, I was able to really get to work this last month and am almost done with the body work, and will start interior work soon. For the OEM top I decided to cut it as close to the window as possible for the opening to the rear of...

Yes and No.. After the mega delay from Covid lockdown, We ended up remodeling the house and this project had to go after, so now it is in process again, almost wrapped up but need to do final body work on the roof still. We have had it out and on the trails and the added stiffness from teh extra...

Awesome, thank you. I did not know there was a gladiator thread there in the market place. How do I find that thread in the FB marketplace? When I search I only can do it by city and key word... I am not a big face book user.

As the tittle states, I would like to buy a full set of painted white Rubicon fenders. Please let me know if you want to sell yours. Also would consider other colors as well as long as they are teh painted versions, and I can have them re sprayed. Thank you,

As the tittle states, I am looking for the OEM 8" Screen for the Gladiator, I assume the Wrangler version is the same correct me if I am wrong. Thank you!

I agree!

Yeah, never a dull moment. The roof overlap, allows me to have a good flex seem, and I am going to make the side walls have a fairly thick hallow rubber gasket as well so that they can accommodate additional flex as well. I did a flex test with a full load of lumbar in the bed and only had...

@Miko, For that extra 8th seat, maybe consider using the middle seat from a JLU and then making a permanent bracket to hold it in the back as well rather than the JL rear bench. I also looked at using a Honda Odyssey middle row jump seat and replacing the middle console in the front so I...

The room in the back is definitely tight on head room, but fine for kids. I kept the roll bar in line with teh original bar and it is 35" from bed to the bottom of the cage. The bottom of the roof is 42" from the bed. If you are planning on putting adults back there, then it will need a...

OK, Here is what I am doing. I was able to find a JLU 2018 Sahara that was wrecked in the front end, and the shop was able to cut the entire top 1/2 off and will be integrating that cage into the Gladiator with all teh matching trims and components, including the seat belts, lighting, and...

I was able to get a metal bumper on. I went with an OEM JKUR Recon edition steel bumper. The mounting was identical to the JL bumper mount. I was able to used the wire harnes from the JT for the fog lights, and everything wired up easily. Fog light flicker sometimes, I still have not resolved...
