  1. ARE camper shell questions

    SnugTop used to be a great shell till they moved to Mexico and now they are, sub par at best. I have one on my Ram 2500 and just did the Mojave road with no issues. They don't make a JT shell. I think that ARE is the top JT fiberglass shell maker. IMO it looks the best. I would like to see...
  2. Is Black done? Considering Satin Aluminum or Bronze on Gator JT

    I was never a fan of black wheels. If I do wheels on the JT they will be Method Double Standard in Machine finish. But the red rims are catching my eye.
  3. Car And Driver - Gladiator vs Colorado vs Ranger vs Ridgeline

    There are probably vehicles better than a Gladiator, BUT, I wanted a Gladiator so I bought one. I don't care who does or does not like them.
  4. Why not buy a full size truck for the same price?

    I bought a new JTR loaded and I will be doing some mods to it,,,, BECAUSE,,, I am going to run out of time before I run out of money. No wife, no kids, don't drink or gamble. It's not like I am blowing money I don't have.
  5. Mopar 2" lift

    TF says that with less than 2 inch lift the factory Rubicon shocks can be used without a shock extension. For my lift I want front 1.5 springs and a rear 1 inch spacer and front adj lower CAs to add some caster. Would also install the MC poly bumpstops. Not sure about the front track bar. I went...
  6. ARE camper shell questions

    I believe if the shell sets to low it could contact the bed on the rear corner due to the shell overhangs the bed a little. The shell is up on the bed so brush would probably miss it but not tree branches.
  7. What do you guys think of red wheels with the pearl blue

    I have a white JTR with the red accents. Looking at red rims but just not sure yet. I am an old school machine finish guy. Wonder how the red holds up to sun and summer heat. I just don't want to look like a guy with a mid life crisis in full bloom. Tomorrow I get my 315-70-17 BFG KO2s. Seems...
  8. ARE camper shell questions

    I believe mine will be about $3K with the options I want. With a 3 month wait. Wake up America,,, time to get back to WORK.
  9. Terraflex 1.5" Leveling Kit - Are Shock Extensions Needed

    Bumpstop extensions are for 2 things. Keep tires from ripping the fenders and protect the shocks from being over compressed. If everything works before the spacers then other than over extending the shocks, it should work without bumpstop spacers.
  10. ARE camper shell questions

    Mine is white so a few coats of wax will prevent most brush scratches. Thanks for the tip on the weatherstrip.
  11. Terraflex 1.5" Leveling Kit - Are Shock Extensions Needed

    So if you don't need the shock extenders you also don't need the bump stop spacer?? That would give you an extra 1 1/2 inch of compression travel. How much shock extension is left with the spacers in?
  12. ARE camper shell questions

    Really thinking of going with the ARE CX line of camper shell. Questions,,, Now they have a new one piece glass rear window in the Evo line. Anyone got it? The CX Classic line has a alu framed rear window with optional dual locking handles. Just trying to get an order decided as there is a 14...
  13. To trade or not, what would you do.........

    Mods are worth very little at the time of resale. You do them for you. If mods make you happy, do them. But they don't add a lot of value. If you have the $$$ and want a new JT then do it but remember that mods cost more now and can take a while.
  14. Mopar Performance Rock rail guys

    Best looking rails I have seen so far. Step size works for me. I got to get a big dog in the back seat so a bar is not good.
  15. Mopar Performance Rock rail guys

    If they will actually work as a rocker skid I am in. Just got to find some.
  16. 35x11.5r17 on my JT Rubicon

    Math says it's about 5%. Just don't want computer issues. But the Jeep doesn't know how far each tire rev takes it.
  17. 35x11.5r17 on my JT Rubicon

    When going to a 35 from the 33's id there any reprogram that need to me done?
  18. Almost 35's.

    I had a 14 JKUR that I did a lot of suspension on. 3 different sets of springs and shocks. Lifted it 4 inches, to much. IMO, Falcon and Bilstein is digressive and stiff. The higher you go the stiffer it gets due to CA angles. At 3 inches the rules change and the $$$ flow. Keeping a nice factory...
  19. Almost 35's.

    Any lifting is the last thing. Bumpers and winch, maybe. Rocker sliders, AEV camper shell. I can easily see $7500 going without a fancy lift. But I know that the 315-70-17 KO2s will be the best tires for me.
  20. Any rumors for 2022 Gladiator changes?

    People have to be able to afford to drive and travel. There will be gas available for them at a price they can afford. There will be more EV's for those that want them so they can save the planet. When I can go 250 miles off road without a re charge, maybe I'll do it. There is still lots of...
