Where can I get one of these?

I was in a similar situation as you and when I saw this it looked like the best of all worlds. I have now had one of these on my truck for the past 2+ years and haven't really had any issues with it. I have used the topper configuration quite a but and the velcro still holds well and I haven't...

I agree, which is what makes me curious if my pair didn't get finished as well as normal. The underside isn't as bad and that is where road salt should have a bigger impact. I definitely deal with road salt, but I have also kept it fairly clean and garage kept. My bumper and some other metal...

So about a year and a half ago I got the Rock Hard 4x4 Patriot sliders. They work great and I enjoy them, but over the last 6 months or so they have started to get some surface rust. I was just wondering if anyone else has had the same experience or if I just happened to get a bad finish job...

Another option to look into would be the Fas-Top. I bought one when I got the Gladiator because I wanted the best off all worlds. Regular soft tonneau for daily use as well as a softopper for when I have bigger things that need to stay out of the elements. I have 3 kids and every time we...

I believe that the temp doesn't get updated if the vehicle is stopped since the heat from the engine bay can skew the reading. My guess is that applies to the vehicle if it is moving too slow as well. You definitely aren't moving fast in 4 low.

Like many others here I have Toyo Open Country AT III's (35x11.5R17) and they have the snow rating. However we had a very mild winter last year in Midwest Nebraska so I wasn't able to really put them thru their places. I will say they aren't all that great on icy cobblestone brick streets...

Ya, they are identical except one sits about 3.5" lower if I remember right. It was an easy decision for me. My truck has the Mopar lift and 35's and I have 3 small children so the angled down works better for their short legs.

Since they are open, does that mean you could also use it to deflate all tires to a desired pressure at the same time as well?

Now I am curious to see somebody install this on a Mopar lift. I like the Timber Groves but I don't necessarily want to be a guinea pig.

I had mine painted to match as well. I am not using them as true beadlocks yet, but I did take it off-road earlier this summer and got a bit of rash on one of the rings. Ground down one of the bolts pretty good, but luckily they are torx bolts so I was still able to get it off.

That is good to know. I think the benefits will outweigh the downside for me as well, but I just want to be aware of the capabilities so I don't damage things unnecessarily. I am curious what the crush limit is and how much PSI would need to be maintained in the bags for them to functionally...

Looking forward to a review. I want to hear others experiences before I decide. One thing I am very curious about is if they affect maximum articulation when install? Will they compress enough with no pressure to not hurt off-road capability?

I am not sure about using the 7 pin, but why can't you just hardwire a 12V SAE 2 pin connector to the battery and run it somewhere easily accessible? This is what I do with my motorcycles and I don't have to remove my seat to access the battery any more.

I believe that would only get me to the same stiffness but not the same height level. Since the air bags work by exerting force sideways against the springs it allows the springs to be stiffer but can't physically lift. One of the added benefits of the TimberGrove vs Airlift is that I could use...

Inflating them will affect the spring rate whether the truck is loaded or not, so as far as stiffness, I wouldn't expect much of a difference if inflating with or without a load. The only difference that I would see is that you can't lift the truck back to level if you have a load on already...

This is my biggest concern with with the Airlift or Firestone bags. If it requires an unloaded truck to get the full benefit then it isn't as useful to me. For instance, I have my RTT and camping gear all loaded up. Before putting everything on/in I air up the bags and everything is peachy. If...

Those are exactly the ones I got. If I remember right, it took a couple hours to install. I had to drill out the pinch welds a bit and put some touch-up paint on so it wouldn't rust. Besides the bolts being stubborn because they had red loctite on them, it was a pretty painless install.

I really like my RockHard 4x4 slider/steps. They give me enough of a step along the whole length of the cab and are heavy duty so they offer good protection. It isn't the cheapest option but is good quality.

I am impressed, how did you manage to tow that without a hitch? On a serious note, I didn't realize people considered the Gladiator a 1/2 ton. I always understood 1/2 ton as a 150/1500, 3/4 ton as a 250/2500, and 1 ton as a 350/3500 as many others here.
