Been posting all my upgrades since I bought mine on the “What did you do to your Gladiator today” page, but thought I’d cross post some love here... Latest upgrade - added the Fab Fours Overland rack. Works just fine with the soft top, and looks perfect in black.

Installed the Fab Fours Overland Rack. I like the look, but I was pretty miffed about the fact that it comes with round button-head bolts while the install instructions say and show flat button-head bolts. Would have much preferred flat heads. Also not at all pleased that, either a) one of...

https://rubiconep.com/hitch-tent-rack-system It's a platform with adjustable legs that rides on a hitch adapter. You bolt your RTT to the platform and it rides vertically. At the camp site you extend the legs, fold the platform down from the vertical and detach it from the hitch. You get the...

Once again, it's been a while since I posted any of the things I've done to my Gladiator, so here's a long recap... Added the MOPAR hood blackout decal: It's nice, and went on pretty easily, but I'm not crazy about how much gap there is around the bump-stops. (Should have gone with...

16000 miles and not a single issue

Funny, I never owned a Honda either. I had the dealer put the Arsenals on my JT before I took delivery. Also funny, I guess, that I haven’t seen them on any other JT anywhere, and I’m on the road a lot. As far as that goes, I haven’t even seen many other JTs, period. The Arsenals look...

Hmmm... It does work the bed light on my truck.

Looks awesome!

Haven’t taken it on any long trips, and no Interstate Highway speeds yet, but local driving at 50mph I can’t tell it’s back there. I thought it might be a pain, but honestly it’s been a breeze. Maybe just a little sway in the curves, but no buffeting so far. No need to dismount your hitch from...

Here’s the link to the Rubicon Expedition Products Hitch Tent Rack https://rubiconep.com/hitch-tent-rack-system They have excellent customer service, too, by the way. We first saw the product at Overland Expo East. Here’s a better look at the rack/platform itself and the hitch adapter. The...

Got our Tepui tent and Rubicon Expedition Products “Hitch Tent” platform. Built it all in the driveway and shoved it into the hitch. Quarantine... And her name tags arrived from PixelDecals! HATARI Also took off the dealer, Overland, and Gladiator badges, and rebranded her a...

Been a while since I last posted, so quite a few pix this time... There was a thread somewhere about key fob covers. I added a GI M1 Folding Key Blade Elastic Rétention Device (aka thick rubber band) to mine. Keeps the keep from popping open in my pocket: I added the Badgeglow aux board...

That's the Smittybilt SRC Gen 2 bumper, right? I'm really leaning toward that for my truck. How do you like it? Which winch? Any chance of a couple of pics from different angles - head-on, and perpendicular to the grill so I can get an idea of the angle of the bull bar and distance from the...

Curious about your Yakima rack - can you adjust it down far enough that the crossbars are below the cab height, or does the fuel fill bump get in the way?

I kept the factory steel rim for the spare.

Fab Fours

Was positive at the outset that I wanted Gobi. Went to the dealer and found out it wasn't available yet. "Settled" on Sting Grey from looking at the gray wranglers in the lot. Couldn't be happier with the result! Sting Grey is a very cool color - businesslike and understated. I mean, it...

A little more catch-up... Hung a Lusso trash bin on the pax seat. When I’ve got a pax I just spin it around to hang behind the seat. You can hang easily hang it in other locations, too. Put the canine seat protector package on the rear seats and doors Discovered the rear cup holders...

Finally got around to installing my K&N Series 77 CAI Too soon to tell if it has an impact on MPG, but at 3500 rpm she gets a lot throatier! Feels a little peppier, too, but that could just be me...

Nice! Just a little off topic, but was that with 5.56? AR pistol?
