  1. That very first NECESSARY mod

    Dead pedal. First 12 hour road trip taught me that.
  2. Sad suspension. Need help changing my setup!

    I went the MetalCloak route. Did the front leveling kit (dual rate springs, red rocksport shocks, UCA, front trackbar, added premium front sway bar links) first, then added the rear lift (dual rate springs, red rocksport shocks, rear trackbar, extended sway bar links, long brake lines)...
  3. 2025 "I Resolve to Offroad with Metalcloak" Giveaway is On!

    Paul Boyd In 2025 I Resolve to Offroad with Metalcloak! To fulfill my pledge I need: 1) Jeep JL Wrangler, JT Gladiator, Baller Joints™, HD Ball Joints, Full Set 2) Jeep JT Gladiator 2.5" Rocklander® Overland Suspension & Lift Kit (Rocksport Black Adjustable Reservoir Shocks, Rubicon/Max...
  4. Rugged Ridge fender chop LED Error

    I installed Combat Offroad Tailgunner taillights and fought this same type of issue. Mine came from the factory with the LED package, but it still hyperflashed with the replacement LED tail lights. I have a JScan Tazer Mini and ended up setting the Tazer to "no LED tail lights", rebooted...
  5. Rugged Ridge fender chop LED Error

    It may be as simple as adding a resistor on each side. Were the lights LED before swapping?
  6. Anyone going to Easter Jeep Safari this year?

    Yep. Arriving the 11th and leaving on the 18th. Doing Seven Mile Rim on 4/12, Hells Revenge on 4/15 and Devil's Race Track on 4/17.
  7. My wish list from Metalcloak

    I think this should be posted on the MetalCloak posting here on the forum
  8. Falken wild peak AT4 upgrade for 2021 Gladiator Overland

    That's odd......exact same tires on mine (mounted on 17x9 Method 703 wheels) and I have my Jscan Tazer set to 34.98" in order to have a match (speedometer vs gps).
  9. Your first Mod of 2025 was (or will be)?

    Have extended length MetalCloak rear brake lines to install so I can do a shakedown run to make sure I am ready for EJS25
  10. Looking for stubby bumper with recessed winch mount between frame rails

    I am more than happy with the MetalCloak 56" on mine. This can be converted to a stubby by removing the foglight wings and winch is mounted low.
  11. A Build for Retirement....Fernweh

    Finally finished up the rear (install springs, Red Rocksports, extended sway bar links and adjustable trakbar).....never realized how much of a squat it had until I saw the "after" results lol. Plus, I'm not getting people flashing brights at me at night. Since that is complete I've made...
  12. Easter Jeep Safari 2025 in Moab, UT!

    I'll be there from April 11th through the 18th. Counting the days until I can register for trails on January 16th! I'll be bringing my 2022 JTR (small MetalCloak lift with 35's on Method 703's) and driving from Indiana. Already making a checklist :)
  13. A Build for Retirement....Fernweh

    Well, we're all different they say. 61 years old, broke my back 3 years ago, going in on the 31st for nerve ablation. I personally feel pretty good about what I did. Then ago though, I've been doing things alone in my garage since '85 lol.
  14. A Build for Retirement....Fernweh

    Over the winter, I didn't do a lot to my Jeep because work kept me on the road so much. I kept my mind focused on my trip to Moab which was coming up in May. I did heed a bunch of warnings that I read and bought a hitch skid (from AJK Offroad) just to save some wear and tear on my receiver...
  15. A Build for Retirement....Fernweh

    This has been in the works for a couple of years. I could see that retirement is approaching and I had a clear vision of what I wanted to do. I'm definitely going to be someone who makes the most out of the expanse of BLM land south and west of the Rockies. In order to do that (in my mind)...
  16. Looking for soft springs

    I've got 2.5" MetalCloak dual rate springs.......definitely softer than stock Rubicon. I love them!
  17. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    I did the Fat Boys Jeepers Fall Run (since I'm almost overqualified) in Eastern Indiana. Started in Straughn and run through Metamore, Laurel and into Oldenburg. Had 32 Jeeps on the run and it was awesome! Stopped by Turtle's Laurel Hotel Restaurant where they had pulled pork sandwiches and...
  18. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Installed my freshly wrapped Combat Offroad taillights. Since my JT is black, the stock powder coated color of the taillights looked crappy (to me). Bought some 3M 2080 Gloss Black wrap and had a shop do the wrap. I'll be on a eastern Indiana Jeep run tomorrow, so I'll definitely be posting...
