  1. July 27, 2022 OURAY Trip, planning and plotting thread

    I've only done it once moving out here. St Louis to Denver was the most boring part. Kansas in particular. I know there was some early talk about people getting an airbnb possibly.
  2. Shakedown Run/Weekend Camp

    If I could get it for $450 it I’d buy it in a heartbeat. I thought Warn was well over 1k though. Also I’m seeing $600 on Harbor Freight’s site currently.
  3. Shakedown Run/Weekend Camp

    $600 but if I’ve seen posts elsewhere from people that if you time it right or use the right coupons some have gotten down to $450 I think.
  4. Shakedown Run/Weekend Camp

    The service department seems ok at the dealership but with the spare tire either the sales guy told parts and they didn’t order it or the sales guy never had them order it. The sales guy kept saying it was backordered and the parts manager would call me when it was in. Finally I got ahold of the...

    I’ve really only heard good things specially about the Apex Badlands 12000 with synthetic rope. The other Badlands models aren’t that great apparently. Its wired and/or wireless and seems to hold up. It is from Harbor Freight so yeah, but it seems to legitimately be good. Granted they’ve been...

    I can buy the actual OEM parts right now from Quadratec for $10 each plus shipping which is frustrating when the dealership can't give me a date on when they can get them from Jeep. Might call around to other dealerships and see if they have the same problem. Most likely they are but I can't...
  7. Shakedown Run/Weekend Camp

    I've mostly stopped watching it but got curious after installing the rack. The roof top tent will add another 130lbs. Debating on the steel bumper now from being all in on one before. Looking at the Ebay specials for like $450. If I get a new bumper the plan is to get the Apex Badlands 12000lb...
  8. Shakedown Run/Weekend Camp

    Just over 6k miles. I'm not a fan of the dealership I took it to because of the spare tire situation but the next closest is Prestige in Longmont and that's too far to leave it all day. The Rebel Off-Road Rack I added seems to eat the mpg but it could also be the winter fuel mix. I'm anywhere...

    Good to know! Might give me something else to plan on. Currently my rear sway bar bushings are bad but supposedly the bushings are on backorder from Mopar according to the dealership. This is the same dealership that said a spare tire was on backorder for 2 months and they ended up not actually...
  10. Shakedown Run/Weekend Camp

    Thats not a bad suggestion. I get a scenic view which is something I definitely want. Looking it up it is usually open mid to late May according to the website.
  11. Shakedown Run/Weekend Camp

    It'll be closer to DocMike's now. Mine is also a daily drive as dumb as it is so I'm not planning too much on the suspension side but the springs might not be a bad idea. I've thought about the Falcon adjustable steering stabilizer as well. Most of my upgrades so far have just been gmrs radio...

    Oh nice! I remember you mentioning possibly going with different gears. Which ones did you go with?
  13. Shakedown Run/Weekend Camp

    I'll let you know when I've got something more concrete!
  14. Shakedown Run/Weekend Camp

    Will do. I'm still early in figuring out where but Moab is only a small chance at best. I've been in the state almost 3 years and still haven't explored much so I'm looking at places that look cool like Great Sand Dunes, or even the western half of RMNP. Those would be regular campgrounds but if...
  15. $74.98 eBay hitch skid.

    Looking forward to your impression. Looking at one for a trip and would love to save some money
  16. Shakedown Run/Weekend Camp

    I’m in the early planning stages of a shakedown run/weekend camping trip to test everything I’ve bought and installed for the July trip in the other thread. It probably won’t be until April as the roof top tent I bought won’t ship for a few more weeks at best, but figured I’d throw an open...

    Nice! I see you're in NOVA. Originally from Southwest VA myself. Thats going to be a hell of a road trip.
  18. July 27, 2022 OURAY Trip, planning and plotting thread

    Thats one of the solutions I'm looking at. It would take part of the cost down for potentially adding ARB lockers in the future. Currently my wallet is being pulled 10 different directions though a recent promotion might ease the burden a little bit. Waiting for a warmish day after the snow...
  19. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Installed a gmrs radio to the aux 4 switch. Still need to troubleshoot why I have a bunch of static and low voice when transmitting though. I know I'm grounded so don't know why currently
  20. July 27, 2022 OURAY Trip, planning and plotting thread

    Rack and midland mxt275 acquired. Rack is shipping and just need to get a few odds and ends to make the midland install go smooth. Still making some decisions on a rooftop tent and checking possible used ones in the area to see if I can find a good deal. Still need an air compressor and debating...
