  1. Anyone else planning buying the Apex 12k for $340 next week?

    I have a small 3000 lb winch on the trailer already. With a snatch block I can pull my JK onto the trailer so a new winch is a want, not a need. I really like the line speed (28 ft/m) of the Apex winch and at $350 it was a great deal. The timing just isn't right at this time.
  2. Winch plate recommendations for Badlands Apex 12,000 with stock 2024 Rubicon X bumper

    I have 2 of the Apex winches. The one on my JK has been on 2 bumpers. Neither one needed spacers or holes redrilled but on my current Tyger bumper, I needed to enlarge the opening on the top of the bumper as it was made for a smaller winch. On my Gladiator, it's mounted in a knock off Mopar...
  3. Mojave stock bumper + Winch?

    I agree, it's not pretty. However, it does work and is a quick and easy way to add a winch to a plastic bumper with minimal work. It's not for everyone.
  4. Badland Apex 12,000 lb. Winch installed

    The plate it comes with is the solenoid relocation plate, not a winch mounting plate.
  5. LOD Winch Plate on Steel Bumper Replica

    Tis better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission.
  6. Anyone else planning buying the Apex 12k for $340 next week?

    I have 2 of the Apex 1200's with synthetic line. The one on my JK is now 3 years old, the one on the Gladiator is now about 18 months old. Both have been rock solid dependable. I seriously thought about getting one for the trailer at that price but when I got to my HF, they only had one steel...
  7. Parts assist please !

    All Mopar OEM parts come with a 24 month warranty. It is not the same as the 3 year/36 month bumper to bumper warranty. You will need to work with Quadratec on this as they are the selling dealer. Good luck. You can check with Benny though, worse he will say is you got to deal with Quadratec...
  8. Needing some suggestions/recommendations.

    My 2021 Rubicon has been extremely reliable other than the paint bubbling on the hood edge, which is a common issue on almost all Gladiators. It also has been driven on multiple long trips and I find it as comfortable if not more comfortable than my 17 GC Trailhawk was. It now has 30K miles on...
  9. Jeep Steven’s creek trying to deceive costumer

    Even my 8 year old grand daughter knows a Jeep is a Jeep and not a car. It's either Grammy's Jeep or Pop Pop's Jeep. I'll let her get away with calling daddy's Grand Cherokee a car.
  10. Jeep Steven’s creek trying to deceive costumer

    I do just that. I already have pre approved financing when I go. I won't play their games. When I bought this Gladiator, I contacted the dealer to make sure they still had it and confirmed the price. Had them email me the price so I had it in writing. I was driving 4 hours and told them. Got...
  11. I knew it was coming…..

    I would rock fuzzy dice. They would make me feel like a teenager again although I doubt my body would let me do what I did then. 😂
  12. RSE Clearance sale

    Just got an email from RockSlide Engineering. Multiple things on clearance, including Gladiator steps with armor for $1800. They are reconditioned Gen 2's but for that price with full warranty, these could make someone a great Christmas gift. Got JLU Reconditioned Gen 3's and 2 and 4 Dr Bronco...
  13. Rock Hard Winch Plate

    I had the Rock Hard winch plate on my JK. It worked just fine. I had some tough pulls with it and it performed well. I sold it to someone else when I replaced my bumper and as far as I know, it's still working well. I didn't notice any cooling issues with the JK. My Gladiator has a knock off...
  14. Switch panel time.

    I also have the JL300. Great setup and looks factory. I have 5 of the 6 switches in use. The only thing I wish it would do is let me determine which individual switches were ignition switched or always on. It's not a deal breaker for me but would be nice. I have red emergency lights for the FD...
  15. Mojave stock bumper + Winch?

    With the plastic bumper, the Rock Hard mount is easier to install as you don't have to remove the bumper to install the winch plate.
  16. Mojave stock bumper + Winch?

    I didn't notice anything significant with an original Badlands 9K winch mounted to it. However a JK has more grill opening than a JT.
  17. Mojave stock bumper + Winch?

    The Rock Hard mount works well, I had one on my JK for some time before I changed out bumpers. It doesn't look too bad but it will allow the winch to block airflow to the radiator.
  18. Decisions - RSE Step Sliders or White Knuckle Off-Road Sliders

    There were 2 must have options on the Gladiator from my wife. RSE steps and American Flag decals. I have both.
  19. 14th Annual Veterans Ride at Uwharrie

    Pics are up on the book of faces. Look for the Uwharrie Veterans ride group. There should also be some on the Carolina Trailblazers page. It was one of the best events yet.
