looks great. Pricey, but great! Nice write up, too.
you mentioned you have the upgraded Alpine audio system already. I assume you mean the Premium amplified system, but everything I’ve read about these speakers indicate they are for the base audio system. I imagine they are quite the improvement...
Wow....thanks for the detailed info! Maybe I’ll just cut a hole in it after all. LOL
ill probably try to disassemble everything when the weather warms up. My Glady won’t fit in my garage.
awesome info. Thanks
Looks good! How was the disassembly of the rear bumper to get to the bezel? That thread you linked to said it was a nightmare so they just cut the plastic. I’d rather use the correct bezel. I just ordered the parts...any tips? Thanks
I have no personal experience with this, but from what I've been researching it sounds like you'll be ok with the 20mm offset for the 18x9 wheel. The reason I say this is that AEV wheels are 17x8.5 and have a 25mm offset. They recommend that wheel offset for their 2.5" lifts on the JT & JL...
The oem rims have pockets in them that the studs will go into even if they poke through the spacer. With that said, I think the minimum without trimmining the studs is 1.25” spacers. I’ve been researching this a bit and have no actual experience with it, but from what I’ve read on this forum 1”...
Thanks guys. I guess it's time to get a JScan and have a look. I was having some misfiring with the CEL P0300 and the Auto Stop/Start error. In for repair 3 times with a total of over 30 days at the dealership. They seemed to have "fixed" it and I've put over 2000 miles on it with no CELs, but...
Hey Chris, i know it’s listed for a few months, but I’m holding at $650. This is a stout 1/4” steel bumper thats over $1,000 new. Can’t let it go for $450. I’ll probably end up using it on my Gladiator if it doesn’t sell.

a little bit goes a long way. I had an annoying rattle/squeak where the center console lid clasp was rubbing the catch on the console and this stuff silenced...
Took advantage of the 75 degree sunny weather today and made a topless run to Free Will Brewing this afternoon.
Got the Gladiator in August and finally took the hard top off for the first time today.
Regardless of whatever cover you have, the bed is not water tight. There’s holes on the sides that water comes in. My Bestop soft tonneau cover is pretty good with sealing, but water still gets in my bed from these holes.
i bought it for off-roading my JLU Rubicon. I traded in the Rubi on the 20 Gladiator Overland and I have no plans to take the Glady Offroad so I’m selling some things.
