  1. Securing SunRider when Open

    I appreciate the feedback. I kind of figured that it was more of a liability issue, but wasn't sure.
  2. Securing SunRider when Open

    I recently installed a SunRider on my Gladiator and really enjoy not having to remove/store/re-install the Freedom Panels while out and about. However, BesTop recommends to velcro strap the arms after opening to prevent the top from being blown shut. How many of you all actually do this? I could...
  3. Bed Mounted 38" Spare Tire Straps

    I was kind of hoping the size would be close enough, but it ain't happening. I was already running 37's, so the heat shield is already gone and I've got a high-clearance rear track bar already. Here's a pic of the size difference. Granted the 37 is rolled slightly closer to the camera, but...
  4. Bed Mounted 38" Spare Tire Straps

    Well...I was hoping that maybe, just maybe I could shoe-horn that 38 in where the stock spare goes. It's a nogo for sure, unless I wanted to maybe completely deflate it and wedge it up in there. I've got to figure out the organization in the bed with my recover gear and toolboxes before I start...
  5. 4.88 Gears Safe For Distance On Highway?

    4.88's on 37's here with trips from Oklahoma to both Moab & Colorado. Zero issues at all other than the transmission hunts between 7th & 8th a lot on the interstate. Add in some hills and headwinds and the trans constantly shifts back and forth. That's just life though running a V6 gasser on big...
  6. Bed Mounted 38" Spare Tire Straps

    I hadn't thought of that! Thank you. Just spit-balling here, but I could almost mount one low, on the front, vertical part of the bed and two, low on the inner wheel well, to keep the bed floor completely flat.
  7. Bed Mounted 38" Spare Tire Straps

    I just ponied up on some 38 x 13.50's on beadlocks and I like to carry the spare in the bed when trailing. Does anybody have a good solution to secure a 38" spare, layed flat in the bed? Mainly just to keep it from sliding around. Amazon has a couple of the Y-Ratchet Straps, and I came across...
  8. PSC Hydro Assist

    Exactly the reason I went with the ram assist. Black Bear was closed when we were up there this year so I've yet to run it, but I still had numerous situations that required a 4-6 pt turn, simply because I had to be rolling to turn and then could only roll so far at a time. And...as also...
  9. PSC Hydro Assist

    Just a quick update after everything is installed. I've got about a 1k normal driving miles on it and I'm really happy with the way it performs. I had some concerns that it might slow down a quick steering response, but that is not the case. The only downside is, when the rpm's drop down to 500...
  10. 1 or 2 Piece Rear Driveshaft; Adam's or Reel Driveline?

    Anybody have any good input on which is best? I run an Adams front shaft, and I was looking to upgrade the rear factory CV-style shaft. Adam's and Tom Wood's only lists a rear 1350 1-piece, but Reel Driveline lists a 1350 2-piece. It seems a 2 piece wouldn't hang down as far (less chance of...
  11. What's the story here? (wrong answers only)

    It's to prevent Jeep Covid. We talked to that guy; he was the one running the dozer on top of Imogene the other day. He said it was to keep the marmots out. He said last year they chewed a wiring harness so bad it had to be replaced at a cost of $3200. We waited for him to clear that last 100...
  12. Alpine Loop Trails Late June

    I spent a few days wheeling around Ouray Colorado area this past week. Not many trails open due to the snow, but was still a good time to get out of the heat.
  13. Metalcloak Game Changer 3.5" Lift questions

    I'm late to the party, but I'm happy with my 3.5 MetalCloak GameChanger.
  14. Winches

    I run a 12k Badlands with synthetic. I've yet to actually have to use it for recovery, but I have pulled some sizeable logs up a long hill and pulled a stuck car ramp out on a car hauler. Lol I watched a video on the differences between the synthetic and wire when they break. The synthetic...
  15. PSC Hydro Assist

    That is good info, as I already have RCV's. Thank you!
  16. PSC Hydro Assist

    For sure. I've already got the Steer Smarts drag link and tie rod. I'm going with the Reid knuckles and the MetalCloak Baller joints. I'm sure the performance will be great, I was just concerned about the reliability.
  17. PSC Hydro Assist

    I did some searching around and only found a few threads on the PSC kits, some of which were dead ends. Anyone running that setup that can chime in on how well it works, or more importantly, if it's a reliable system or not. I'm running a 37" tall tire, and have noticed that it is difficult to...
  18. Black Bear Pass in a Gladiator with 40s.

    Has anyone heard about whether or not it will open this year? I know it was closed when I was out there last year?
