  1. Money Pit

    Finally picked up my stock wheels and tires that have been sitting at the shop since the installation of the 37’s.
  2. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Even though they are available on the Internet on many of the popular sites my dealer was insistent that all black weather mats were not available because they did not show up in the system however, after almost two months of arguing with the parts guy at my dealer (because they were included in...

    You are correct, this kit does not level the truck and it maintains a little less rake than the factory.

    Bought some Diode Dynamics Clear LED Side Markers from @roadrunnersnj that I had a friend a @the_shop_inc install for me today. The quality of these lights is superb and the installation took less than 5 minutes a side with the only real pain in the neck being the location and the size of the...

    The only thing I probably won’t takeoff is the lift which is why I didn’t get a bigger budget one. I bought my last lease out, kept it for a year after that and then traded it in for this so you never now.

    To fit a 1” spacer (which would have been ideal btw) I would have had to have ground down or cut off the factory studs because they’re about 1 3/4” and have you seen how much it costs to replace 20 the studs with labor lately?

    ***If you use the G2 Spacers you cannot use the OEM lugnuts (at least with these wheels) because they are too short so I had to purchase 1 1/2” lugnuts from my local go to guy @roadrunnersnj
  9. what wheel spacer: Teraflex or spidertrax

    Installed some G2 1 3/4” spacers the other day to stop the slight rub I was getting on my lower control arms at full lock. Considering that these 17X8.5 AEV’s have an offset of +25 I think that they are now somewhere in the neighborhood of -18 or -19 offset when you consider the spacer. The rub...

  11. what wheel spacer: Teraflex or spidertrax

    I just installed 1 3/4“ G2 spacers the other day. Everything works well and rides fine with my +25 AEV Wheels on 37’s. I’d be happy to take a pic if it ever stops raining here in NJ. Wish I could have went with only a 1/2” spacer, but I didn’t want to have to grind the studs on my brand new ride...
  12. 35 or 37`s What To Do?

    Any rub with this set up? I just put on AEV Servage II’s and it rubs on the lower control arm. Definitely thinking I should have went with the JK version because +25 on anything without the wider axels needs about 10 mm less offset if you ask me to be pretty close to perfect.

    My bad. They were $150. #donttellmywife https://www.ebay.com/itm/7-Black-LED-Headlights-4-Fog-Lights-Brackets-for-2018-2019-Jeep-Wrangler-JL/332996411451?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

    I’ll probably keep the lift on it and take the tires off like I’ve done with other leases vehicles in the past and was one of the major reasons I went with thi$ type of lift. Most lease return companies won’t even notice as long as the tires have meat in them and scratches are minimum. A few...

    I yielded about 2 1/2”s of lift and feel no difference when driving between the lift and no lift when I had the OEM wheels on. At 40 psi with the new wheels and tires I think it rides just as well too.

    I think this is definitely a must change item for all Jeeps. A new black, low profile 13” antenna is probably the best $16.99 you could spend on Amazon for your JT. FM reception doesn’t really appear to be affected, but then again I’m less than 20 miles from NYC so your results may vary and I...

    Installed 7” LED headlights and fogs that I got from eBay for about $135 with all the pigtails and adapters included. They’re bright and inexpensive and a cheap alternative until 9” units become more readily available for hopefully a lot less than the $600-700 they currently cost. The fogs fit...

    The wheels arrived on 3-13-20 and I had 37x12.5-17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers installed at a local shop. I don’t think I ever really considered running 35’s, but after installation I could turn the wheels lock to lock with no interference however, while under load and in motion I get rub on the lower...

    Before and after pics of the AEV 2” Spacer Lift with the OEM wheels on. AEV Servage II wheels are on order and I’m debating between adding 35’s or 37’s.

    Window tint was done the first day after ownership and on 3-2-20 AEV introduced their new 2” spacer lift that I ordered on 3-4, arrived on 3-7 and had installed on 3-10.
