So my dad just took delivery of a new to him Gladiator Rubicon. I was giving the truck an inspection after unloading from the flatbed after buying online, found it plugged into the OBDII port, tucked away behind the kickout panel. Doesn't look like any programer that I've seen. Bought the truck...
So just in case, before you go fiddling with anything like trying to adjust the latches, have you tried slamming it?
My tailgate, ever since I got the truck, would have a gap at the passenger side, and the drivers side would be flush. Thought I needed to adjust the latches, then I read on the...
Waiting on the rears to release on the Bushwacker HyperForm flares for the Gladiator, dig the look and price, plus these will be perfect for 37's on a Sport.
Very tempted to run their flat flares in the rear until they release the matching set, if they ever do!
The factory trail cam is a fairly rare (and expensive) option, most dealers just preorder certain combo packages, you have to manually select it. And to top it off, its a bear to install if you didn't get it with the factory, easily 1200$ and you have to tear apart the WHOLE interior to do it...
If you're like me, what would happen is you are now the proud owner of a clapped out 'running' 996 because the body was straight and it was "only 5k' and now there are two money pits in the garage.
I'm not sure how well that would work for this setup, as the pole is collapsible/folding and meant to go into the bag, although one thing that I think would work in this case is wraparound foam, shouldn't increase the diameter of the pole too much, and as long as it's not on the joints of the...
TLDR: So for anyone out there who wants a safety flag kit that is easy to take on/off and store, I would highly recommend this kit: Orange Handy Flag Kit. At $55 its pretty good, you get a well made flag, a quick decoupler, a collapsing flag pole that easily stores under the rear seat, plus...
If you have a hard top it would be worth checking to see if the rear glass leaks, the glass needs to be broken for a replacement to fix the leak and it runs something ridiculous like $1400.
Mine leaks a small amount and I have the same millage, so I should be making an appointment to get it...
While I've been off-roading with my family for years, this is my first Jeep, sold my 12' Tacoma to my brother and picked up my Gladiator last year. The day she arrived:
And how she sits now, along with my Dad's JKU:
What these guys said, plus a little heat helps. When I did mine I held a heat gun on the highest setting to the bolts for 3 minuites because it was all that I had, and did small 3/4 turns, then backed off.
I was able to get them installed in about 3 hours, I went very slow, plus I had to...
So I got a reply from El Rey, they're saying these things are 4 weeks out last they checked, waiting on feedback from the vendor, so looks like they're still out of stock. I'm going to give them a few more days for Apex to reply.

Debating on canceling my order, but these guys did still list them at the original price, I'll give them a few days...
