Track bar/sector shaft brace install: Noticed that the axle had been slightly off-center since the AEV lift with the stock track bar. Plus as extra insurance against any potential death wobble, and to tighten up the steering, I put in the ever popular Steer Smarts sector shaft/track bar brace...

"All Jeep": doorless for the first time: Moved into my new place and started getting ready for doorless life, which is a huge reason why I wanted a Jeep - ever since I rode in my buddy's doorless JK. I built a very easy DIY set of door hangers in my garage, that a certain controversial Jeep...

"All truck": At this point I moved from the east coast to TX. I didn't get a lot of pics as it was a busy time, but I ended up pulling this 6x12 Uhaul about 1000 miles. Trailer weighed in at about 5500 lbs, and the truck handled it fine. The engine did surprisingly well - I could tell it was...

Having the CV shafts in the front axle from factory, that come with the 4A, is a huge win in my book. Those are an expensive upgrade to do aftermarket. While I’ve never wheeled a SFA vehicle with u-joints, reading on the forums and watching videos, I’ve seen how they can bind when making hard...

First major suspension upgrade: Installed AEV Mojave 2" lift with their Geometry Correction Brackets. The Mojave shocks and ride were its selling point to me and I didn't want to give that up by going with a different lift. I figured that the geo correction brackets were a more cost-effective...

First 4WD use: First wheeling trip was some basic trails in East PA. I didn't have the time to make it out to Rousch Creek unfortunately, and can't wait to the next time I'm there. Check out the stock flex with sway bars still connected, and the room with no lift and 37s. Hopefully this helps...

First mods: Basic aesthetic/function mods typical of most trucks/jeeps. @darksidedesign grab handles, Bakflip Revolver X4S tonneau. Not pictured because I didn't take pictures of install, but also put in Armorlite wash-out vinyl flooring. Also, started realizing here just how big 37s are...

Beginning. My Gladiator began as a custom order from Gupton in September 2021, and I took delivery November 15th. As built: Mojave 3.6/Auto/full time 4WD, Sting Gray with black hard top and fenders, black cloth interior. Options and packages: Gorrilla Glass, spray-in bedliner, 8.4 inch...

After posting a lot on the "What did you do TO your Gladiator Today?" but not finding a lot of time and space to post daily updates, I thought I would start my own build threat going through the steps of what I've done to build up my gladiator and drive discussion on it. The goal of this build...

Nice looking rack. I’m guessing based in the mounting feet style that it’s not compatible with a roll up tonneau cover, like the X4S?

Doing that plus the DIY 4 hose is all you really need, you can pump from your box to all 4 tires at once! And if you get the itch to convert it like I did, get the under hood mount from @813 Fabrication & Design and hit me up for questions haha

If you read the post I said 14 minutes for all 4 tires simultaneously, not for one tire. I built a 4 tire inflation kit.

Just got for the single kit. The single kit with the wiring harness, built in manifold, and everything you need is about half the price of just the dual compressor - not counting the harness, manifold, and all the other things you need sold separately with the dual. My single inflates my...

Interested if you’re willing to ship. PM sent

Put the finishing touches on my ARB on-board install. I originally bought an ABR single portable kit that comes in a box with alligator battery clips, thinking I wouldn’t use air a lot, but then I started wheeling my Jeep a ton. Bought a bunch of supplies, an @813 Fabrication & Design under...

Any follow up with this? Was the dealer able to replace the seal? Noticed in my cleaning/Jeep projects the last couple weeks that I’m having the same problem. Power steering fluid is still perfectly fine and I haven’t lost much at all but it definitely could develop into something more down the...

At first I was going to roast you a bit, but then I saw that second line, and now I just wonder why you have the JT. Idk, for me, my Jeep has 3 reasons why I love it so much - the adult lego aspect where I get to build it into whatever I want; the doors off, top off, coolest, funnest ride...

$10 for exchange anywhere in Austin the next time I'm down there, or up to Temple area. Or $10 plus shipping. It was part of my CKMP12 portable single compressor unit, but I took the unit apart to mount it underhood and I'm going to wire it to my aux switch, and I don't need the rocker. It's...

Hi all, swapped my Mojave plastic from bumper for a Smittybilt XRC, and no longer need the tow hooks or the skid plate. Edit: Tow hooks SOLD, $50 OBO for the skid plate. Wiling to meet anywhere from Austin to Temple to exchange, and I can work up to Waco or down to San Antonio.
