  1. DIY Door Cart idea.

    This took a while, but here it is: Please understand I built this 3 years ago, so some of the finer dimensions are going to be different than they would be with brand new wood due to the wood on this cart having weathered and aged a bit- the goal is to get a 74 3/8" x 20" cart. First, the...
  2. Went shopping yesterday - holy interest rates Batman

    My wife bought a Subaru Forester in April of 2020. Sticker was right at $40k. They drove it to our house, and the sales guy had to stand outside of our house per dealership rules while she test drove. The sales guy said "name your price". She said "I want 0% interest and a $500 car payment"...
  3. Went shopping yesterday - holy interest rates Batman

    It's funny, I have a completely different perspective and would have looked at this like the deal of the year for a midsize truck right now, and especially a Rubicon. Here's why: When I buy a vehicle, I look at the price on the window sticker. I make it my job to get the total cost of payments...
  4. Went shopping yesterday - holy interest rates Batman

    That's an expensive car payment- I have a little RZR that I financed at 4.9% for 36 months, and it was $32k out the door... after financing I'm paying nearly $900/mo. Did you put a bunch down? Or do you have a $1600 car payment?
  5. 35s and No Lift Thread

    Hey Kevin. Any updates on these that would make you reconsider? I’m thinking about getting either these or the Nitto Ridge Grapplers and I want to keep the stock wheels on my Rubicon.
  6. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Got my eBay Knockoff Rubicon steel bumper on. The bumper itself was $399 with free shipping on eBay. There were no instructions and about 400 extra fasteners. I removed my OEm wiring harness for my halogen fog lights and reused the wiring harness and lights in the new bumper. It took me 5...
  7. DIY Door Cart idea.

    I’ll post measurements and details tomorrow morning.
  8. Pics with tube doors -- post yours

    The factory door mirrors don’t come off of the factory doors. You can get a lot of sets of tube doors with mirrors, though. If you do get a set without, there are kart mirrors that go into the cowl bolt holes on the front. They are about $8.00 per set from auto zone. The only thing to keep in...
  9. DIY Door Cart idea.

    Here is the Door cart I use. I "designed it" to the extent that it needed to be measured. I figured I would share it because it is cheap and easy. Total cost was around $50 including the wheels and the black primer paint. I like it because it can stay in the garage in front of my wife's...
  10. Mopar Paint Pens

    A while back, I had an issue finding the color I wanted in the touch up pen. Turns out, the touch up pen wasn't listed for Jeeps, nor was it called what the paint was called, even though it was the correct color. Same thing ended up happening with my "Silver Zynith" current truck- the Mopar...
  11. Ford offering OEM aftermarket Supercharger package for ‘21 and newer Coyote engine F-150s

    Ford just released a curious option for the Coyote F-150s. $12,350 gets you a 3 liter supercharger, lowering kit, wheels, fender vents, and a new grill. It must be installed at a dealership, and there isn’t a listed labor cost. After installation, outfitted trucks will have 700 HP and 590...
  12. The clutch recall was recalled?

    The general process for recall issues within the automotive industry: The first thing they will do is attempt to mitigate issues via a firmware adjustment. If that doesn't work, they will move to modifying existing hardware. If that doesn't work, they will replace hardware with new parts. In...
  13. Questions on cooling - Mojave

    Respectfully, I don’t think the “desert rating” badges are being tested with or are accounting for 5,000lbs being trailered. Similarly, I doubt that the Rubicon capabilities and subsequent badging are earned while hauling trailers, either.
  14. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    I applied Herculiner to the bed. I couldn’t justify the cost of LineX… nearly $800 in my area for the UV-proof stuff. I also got my “Explore TN” personalized plate on.
  15. Why don’t I ever see new Broncos with their doors off?

    I saw a little over a dozen new Broncos with their tops off in greater Nashville today when I was driving around all morning. Not a single one had their doors off. Anyone got any reasons as to why this may be?
  16. Question about 35” tires

    shows what I'm talking about. Obviously you have to line the fenders. But overall, this appears to me to be a situation where I can gain about 2.5" of flex without having to do a level kit or lift. If you look at most of the rigs that are serious about being on trails, 9/10 of them have either...
  17. Question about 35” tires

    I just watched a video on Youtube and it says you gain about 3” more space from top of tire to underside of fender by removing the inner front Fender. I was planning on getting 35s and doing a 1.5” leveling kit, but now that I see this fender “chop” option, I’m wondering if that might be a...
  18. What yall think? Yea stock tires but....

    Respectfully, it Looks like you are driving on donuts… 285/70r17 ko2s will give that a VERY good look. and you’ll still fit in the garage. Looking at this, it’s crazy how few gladiators I’ve ever seen on stock tires. I read somewhere that FCA estimates that 92% of owners get new tires within a...
  19. Outlander softopper by Agri-cover Inc. (ACI products)

    Thanks for this post! I am looking for a bed topper for trips down to the beach this summer to give the dogs a bit more space in the bed rather than the back seat. I’m going to be taking the topper completely off except for a weekend or two each month because I normally ride without doors or...
