  1. Gladiator Tailgate Modification

    I feel this one. Its interesting, there are objectively bad decisions to be made sure, but for a lot of the folks here, our priorities are different which leads to different decision making in our builds - leads to a lot of interesting projects and occasionally some disagreements.. Im this way...
  2. Gladiator Tailgate Modification

    Yep, but thats not mine - Thats another owner I was talking to on Instagram. My fiberglass skills arent great, and I hate working with the stuff, Im going to go with thick butyl patches instead on mine. Im not terribly concerned with reenforcing the outer wall of the tailgate, id be more...
  3. Gladiator Tailgate Modification

    Oh theres going to be a lot of pictures on this one ahaha.. when I get around to it.. Im hoping to get to this done over the Presidents day weekend we`re about to have, but Ive got a few other things to knock out first (New suspension, Wheels and Tires are on the way, housework, etc). Heres a...
  4. Gladiator Tailgate Modification

    I received mine this week. Put down the deposit a month ago, got one of the first kits in the US - Hopefully wont suffer from too many "early adopter" issues. Havent gotten around to the install yet, have a few other projects that are waiting in the garage and short on time. Ive talked with a...
  5. Consensus on how big of a problem the Glad (and some Wranglers) door connectors are

    While I agree with ShadowsPapa on the complexity of these connectors - I think they absolutely could have gone with a simpler connector, especially when its one that is going to be tinkered with so often - I tend to disagree with the general idea that these connectors are a "problem". As SP...
  6. Missing engine cover for new models (2022)?

    Just put in an order for the underhood ARB plate, FYI. My 2021 has the cover and all that jazz, just wanted to get the plate on its way.
  7. Idea for off road Electric trailer. Is anyone doing this??

    Pretty cool idea. I really like the idea of having a "Regen Axle" kit that comes with an axle that is all set up for regen and has wiring that you could connect to your own battery system, as a way to retrofit existing trailers. Could supplement or even replace solar for some applications...
  8. Interior L.E.D. kit (prefer a clean wire free look)

    Im curious about this as well. Ive seen plenty of LED light strip kits on Amazon, etc. Ive purchased a pack of 12" red LED light strips that Im planning to wire into a 12v tap behind the CLA, and put a switch on the center console (likely up in the front on the removable panel for the trans...
  9. Missing engine cover for new models (2022)?

    Do me a favor, dont discontinue the ARB bracket kit until I can purchase one!
  10. SkyJacker 4" Lift

    I installed their 3.5" front / 2" rear kit on mine, with the extended coils in the front and the spacers in the rear. I opted for the M95 shocks, so cant comment on the black max ones. For the most part, Ive been really happy with it. Ive been running it for about 15,000 miles, through multiple...
  11. who is on original oem aluminum steering box?

    Stupid question here - Its friday, and Ive already begun drinkng - Does anyone know how to check this? I have a 2021 model and was told by the dealership that it was not effected by the steering box shenanigans and have been operating under the assumption that it had the newer version installed...
  12. Cable Access

    You can route a cable through the speaker covers at the corners, near the base of the A-Pillar. The shape of the cover leaves room to sneak a cable through without any cutting or modifications. Handy place to route the charging cable for the Dashcam - you can then feed it up through the A-Pillar.
  13. Convince me to get a GMRS radio

    Thanks! There's a lot of variables at play here, but I figured I'd ask. Last time I used the GMRS I did use it at night and didn't have this issue, but I had a different antenna with the cable routed differently, and I had the unit mounted to the center console instead of in the dash. I'm...
  14. Convince me to get a GMRS radio

    I did this last night, and I love it. I removed the mount from the center console and tucked the unit into the dash, did the panel mount CAT6 with a 1.5ft cable, worked out great. Question - Im noticing that when I turn my headlights on, I instantly get a ton of static on my radio. From some...
  15. Garage door opener - what other uses?

    Found it: https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/using-homelink-buttons-to-power-lights.23091/
  16. Spare Tire Protector Cover

    Just sent them an email - Ill likely paint mine red. Thanks for sharing this!
  17. 8.4 Upgrade vrs Aftermarket

    Also have remote start and backup cam - I havent experienced any loss of factory function since installing the JL3001. All the OEM settings are available in the units settings or apps, as far as I have found. You can also change the settings for how the unit will behave when the vehicle shuts...
  18. 93 mile Roundtrip 27.3 MPG

    I think I could get that.. going down hill.. with a strong wind behind me.. in neutral.. if i got out and pushed..
  19. 8.4 Upgrade vrs Aftermarket

    Apparently OnX works with Android Auto now, but I havent tried it yet. I installed the Insane Audio JL3001 a while back for this exact reason - I wanted OnX access, plus full android capability. Ive been pretty happy with it. I went from the 7" OEM unit to the JL3001 and its been great. The...
