Thanks for the reply. That's a beautiful thing. I've got the RK 4-link rear now and 4.5" springs, but Metacloak shocks which are limited to 28" or so. Looking to bump that up but worried about the springs.

Following. Looking great! Was that a rear spring that popped out? Curious what height lift you guys have and what your plans are for the rear swaybar? Are you thinking limit straps to keep the spring in place on full droop?

Woohoo! I feel like I should be getting commission 😂😉 Glad everyone is having a great experience. After a year mine is still holding up well, no corrosion changed the oil, no issues.

That’s awesome, thanks! BTW, are you considering a plate over the exhaust side? I’ve banged up my exhaust components quite a bit...

The fuel tank skid plate is actually the same price (~$430 shipped at time of this post) from either company. The ASFIR4x4 transfer case skid plate is nearly $100 cheaper currently, but it doesn't replace your existing plate. It actually bolts over it. The engine skid is indeed an extremely...

A lot of big name American manufacturers have had aluminum and steel options for a while, so there's nothing to worry about. Aluminum is softer, so in most cases it's 1/16" thicker than steel counterparts while still lighter. And as others stated, it won't rust so there's less maintenance...

That’s perfect, thank you so much! In terms of clearance, they really don’t come down all that much below the factory rails which is great!

Awesome, thanks. Yes, mainly lower angles to get a sense of clearance and drop from door sill: full vehicle side, from a distance for example, and maybe a close up on the finish texture?

That's very helpful, Thanks! Do you have any other general photos you could share, having a hard time finding angled-down photos.

Wow this thread got active quickly. Sorry for the delay, I actually was just getting the lift finished! 😄 Just catching up, the install is super easy and has more clearance than other plates I've seen that curve all the way over the driveshaft and make me nervous. Rubicon or Mojave should have...

After several off-road trips scraping heavily on rocks (still factory Rubicon height), I’m very happy with the skid plate. It’s got some scars and has held up well. At this time, other than this plate, I only have the front and rear diff plates from Metalcloak, which have also seen some action...

That’s concerning. I just received (not installed yet) my MC GC kit, but with RK 4.5” springs and Pro-X 4-link. I’m hoping that since I ordered well after the discovery and fix, I’ll be OK, but concerned that the fix is essentially the same as new ones, so if that’s not working...

Sorry to resurrect an old post, but I'm surprised by how few photos there are of this bumper, so I thought I'd share a few in case someone is looking and has questions. Caveat emptor: I installed mine early Sept 2020 from one of the earliest batches. The instructions had some mistakes in them...

Would you mind measuring the height of the door sill (bottom of drivers door) and the bottom of the tailgate? That’ll give a sense of the overall height and rake change. For reference the stock Rubi on 33 MTs measures 23” and 32” respectively. Thanks!

Don’t mean to hijack, but I’m considering the same lift, would you mind measuring a couple things? Specifically the height to the driver side door sill, (bottom of drivers door), and then the base of the tailgate? That’ll give a good sense of the rake change from stock and roof height. For...

Just in case anyone else is searching, Shad19 shared a super easy, 5 second solution. He even posted a super helpful video: https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/rear-headrest-removal.3215/post-532907

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but it comes up on Google and in case anyone else was searching for the easy way to do this, Shad19 posted this video: https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/rear-headrest-removal.3215/post-532907

Thanks! I totally missed that little hidden feature. Super functional, but if I don't intend to use the swinging attachments, I wonder if the corners are too bulky. Would be good to see a side by side comparison with the stock rear bumper, as I'm looking for a more slender profile.
