  1. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    If you run across that again, please send a link! I thought about getting one of the ground tents that would attach to the rear, but I wanted a locking hard canopy and then needed to modify from there. Right now, I also have a lightweight nylon tarp 10x13 that I drape over the top and tie off...
  2. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    That is a good deal. I used to use an assortment of tool boxes and bags, and had them placed by height to lay my foam or air mattress in in back of my JKUR. They were limited to smaller items. I found the below Bauer boxes at Harbor Freight, bought two plus one of the open crates. They lock...
  3. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    I do have a butane stove I use occasionally. Especially if we have a campsite we return to each afternoon. Love it, but does not make me happy in strong winds, or if I am freexing cold and could be cooking inside with electric!
  4. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    Agree. I have solar panels I can use if needed, but so far my set-up with the Jackery does everything unless do not drive each day. It was the 2nd best camp accessory I purchased. First was Dometic powered fridge ( and freezer later.) I have a Dometic 35L ( for freezer) and a Dometic 18L ( for...
  5. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    Could not find one that fit what I wanted, so I used some of my old camp gear and modified to fit my cargoslide when extended. Gives me options up to about an 8' long inside area. I modified an old tent I(Cabela's I-Pod unit) by removing small end, then taped open edges and seams to make it fit...
  6. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    Agree 100%. I like to keep gear compact and easy to move, as I sleep on platform in bed with my tent extension. Like to travel with everything protected inside canopy. Nice to leave gear inside if raining, or under tailgate if weather permits. I am trying to consolidate gear boxes/bags for...

    Test of Roadpro Saucepan 12v and Dash Mini Griddle 110v. Roadpro Saucepan: 12v. . Wattage draw 115w. Have used this to warm canned soups, frozen chilli and spaghetti in past. Works well, just takes a while. Tried cooking to test result. 1 strip of bacon took 41 minutes to get done and 50 min...
  8. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    Finally did my testing on a few items: I had two Immersion Heating Elements that I bought last year and never used. Received my YQ-105 Hot Plate to test also. Will write up the test of these three items for heating water in this post, then the cooking test of my Roadpro Saucepan (12v) and my...
  9. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    Cannot wait to see the results. Have to dig out my sauce pan this weekend and try it for more advanced cooking than just soups and reheats. Ordered the IYQ 4" hotplate and Dash 4" griddle.... those will come in handy for sure. Will see what they look like this weekend. Getting excited for...
  10. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    When I camped in my JKUR, I had a platform stretching from back of front passenger seat to rear. The fridge was next to it and did provide just a little bit of heat. But my remote start coupled with setting heat to high before turning in when really cold gave me the opportunity to crank up the...
  11. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    That is interesting. I too am surprised at the 100w rating? Looks like interior is small. Be interested to see how it performs.
  12. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    That is awesome !!! I believe the girl next to me on the highway today must have been cooking these hot dogs...she only used the center lane and half of each adjoining lane!! Just think how nice to grab the heating tube with your bare hand by mistake!!!
  13. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    Awesome on the frying pan !!. That may be my next acquistion. I have seen 12v coffee makers, but most had weak reviews. I do have a little one cup drip brewer that runs on 110... with inverter and engine running, it takes maybe 4 to 5 minutes. But I am an early riser, and do not want to make...
  14. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    I use a butane stove to heat water for coffe and the occasional fried foods. But I now stick mostly to using my 12v cooking items from Roadpro. No concern for wind, easy to use and fast cleanup.. No worries of fire, grease or steam. Fot most meals I warm soups, or frozen items from home like...
  15. Anyone running Rokblokz on a leveled Glad running 33's on the front only?

    I put the standard size on front last Spring. They look great. Wish I had put them on before I got any gravel chips on rear fenders. Mojave stock suspension and Falkens.
  16. Alu-Cab Contour Canopy Roll Call - not Camper

    Meant to add that the weatherstripping you see in photo was what came on the canopy from the factory. It was attached to the entire base. The weatherstripping I used on sides of bed where tailgate closes is listed below. The weatherstripping I used on the sides was OK, but a couple of short...
  17. Alu-Cab Contour Canopy Roll Call - not Camper

    I said 6", but when i looked at my prior order it was 4 1/4"! Guess my memory was off. It was plenty wide enough and has performed as designed since install in June 2021. Looks like it is on sale now. Papillon Adhesive Universal Rubber Truck Bed Tailgate Gap Cover Filler Seal Shield Lip...
  18. Alu-Cab Contour Canopy Roll Call - not Camper

    Here are some photos of the RLD Canopy fit. Have had it on for 18 months and several trips to desert. Put a little strip of weatherstrip vertical down side of bed where tailgate closes and a piece of 6" wide bed seal joining the floor and tailgate. Seems to keep dust out very well. Have not had...
  19. Gladiator Expedition Rigs

    Good move. The two heater options should provide plenty of warmth ! My smaller RLD canopy with a tent extension on back has been working good. Lined the ceiling and driver side with Reflectix. I have a 375w heater that I plug into my Jackery 1500. Gives that touch of warmth at night and...
  20. Bed cap ideas

    "Then I'll apply some white contact paper on the Luan to brighten up the inside. Then I'll bolt the assembly to the ceiling to provide further insulation against heat. This has the added benefit of keeping the inside of the truck warmer in the winter and preventing condensation on the ceiling...
