I like tinkering and adventuring. Helps me de-stress. You don’t buy a Jeep because you want an A-B commuter. You buy it because it’s a toy. I love my toy. It was a bad financial investment, but a wonderful mental health investment. Worth it in my book.

The Yeti 65 barely fits, but it fits cleanly.

Primed hard top arrived today, took it straight to the body shop for painting. Can't wait to pick it up next week! 2 month wait

Think I got the fit. Working on mounting for the media hub first.

Cool, I’ll post it up on Thingiverse or something when done. V5 is printing right now. Probably take a few more revisions to get the fit perfect.

After a year, I’ve never used the media hub or front outlet :/ I feel like these spaces could be better used! To that end I’m designing covers to replace these plates. Has anyone else tried this? I can share the STL files once I have a functioning prototype if anyone else finds this useful.

A pony tail is an effective mechanism for keeping hats on your head though, and it costs nothing. Just saying...

I routed mine into the engine bay. Thought about the bed too, but I always have gear of some sort in there and those intakes are plastic.

I have the primed hardtop in order, been less than a month so far and they mentioned it would be here by mid September. We’ll see :/

There is a Gladiator disassembly video on YouTube. Basically i used a couple flat head screwdrivers and lots of careful leverage. For the pattern, I made it up. I extra reinforced the points where the vises sit to eliminate as much of the “sinking” in the middle as possible.

Mounted the system last night. The 485c pumps mount nicely in the new alignment.

Ya, last page of the gladiator section in their site.

Got my air bracket in the mail today. Some 485s on the way. Excited to install it!

Told my husband I wanted to trade my Volvo for a Gladiator. He told me it was a bad idea, but whatever. A year later over dinner he tells me he understands now, and is glad I made a choice that has brought me happiness :)

It looks good, I like the bent tubes better than the prototype. I’m excited :)

It’s a standard package they have for Tundra’s I believe. This is what the spacers look like.

over time the bed caps are squished into the metal underneath. If you are obsessive like me, you want things even. You can contact Diamondback and they will send you spaces to put under the plastic.

those are front runner rails. I bought a pair of their universal rails and cut the down to size. They come with rubber bases that you can cut also. Whole install didn’t take long. Just remember to measure twice :)

Damn, UConnect needs some work :/ Sorry!
