  1. Ouch

    Our Gladiator is a replacement for our Defender 110 which was totaled last year by a driver in much the same story. Admitted to the cop after that they were on their phone, also uninsured, and did not own the vehicle - in some crazy private party not-documented lease to own arrangement from the...
  2. MetalCloak 2.5" GC lift and wheel backspacing issue - any wisdom on this?

    I had similar questions, as we are in the process at the same point you are, and I spoke with some shock suppliers about this. The stated backspacing required, as I’ve been told, is for a worst case to ensure that regardless of what tire you put on, it’ll clear. So if you’re going to 38x13.5 for...
  3. Giving my new truck it's first good wash and noticed this... WTF?

    We found a small dent on the drivers side bed sheet metal when we picked ours up out of state after having an agreed contract. Ended up getting some accessories tossed in to compensate. That’s nothing though compared to when we went to pickup our Bronco, which we’ve since parted with. Damage...
  4. 3W Floor Mats and Bed Liner Review

    Likewise, it also comes in white logo though, not much better. We have the bed mat and are happy with it, seems to fit flatter in our bed than yours OP. There's a series of magnets across the leading edge up there, so once you get it where you want it, its pretty flat after a couple days. The...
  5. Clayton Overland Plus vs Metalcloak Gamechanger - with towing

    We’re making the same trade right now, target for us is 37’s, re-geared, 2.5” lift, heavy duty rear springs, and a camper shell, so definitely some weight back there in the bed, about 350-400 lb full time. We like the idea of adjustable shocks, just not sure which ones to go with at the moment...
  6. DIY: Remove and replace drivers broken body mount bolt -- how-to instructions w/ photos

    That’s interesting and the first I’ve heard of the body mount bolts being moved. I have a 2024 and my sliders were listed as compatible with 2020-2025 and I didn’t run into any fitment issues related to the body bolts position. Wonder if it’s something related to the specific design of your...
  7. TUSCADERO Gladiator JT Club

    Agree with you, I'm generally a fan of the paint matched top but when we started shopping for our Gladiator we had a couple colors we liked but only with the black top, including the Tuscadero. Planning on black for everything we add to ours, so far just sliders, skid plates, and a tonneau...
  8. Truck got flipped off the other day, 3rd Party insurance claim

    Just my two cents but if someone hit mine and flipped it, I’d be doing everything I can to get their insurance to pay out for the vehicle and pick up a new one. From a hit like that, you’re always going to find something else down the road that you can attribute to the crash. We just went...
  9. 3Wliners Bed Mat Review

    We have a sprayed bedliner in ours, not the factory one though. Fits fine. They left enough room all around that the bedliner doesn’t conflict.
  10. 3Wliners Bed Mat Review

    We put ours in this past week too. It’s nice how it magnets down on the front and rear edges. Good fit as well.
  11. DIY: Remove and replace drivers broken body mount bolt -- how-to instructions w/ photos

    I did. Loctite Blue 248. Torqued to 92 ft-lb front and rear, 80 ft-lb centers, per factory torque specs.
  12. DIY: Remove and replace drivers broken body mount bolt -- how-to instructions w/ photos

    I still did tighten the bolts a bit to clear the threads but only because I was concerned, not because they felt like they needed it.
  13. DIY: Remove and replace drivers broken body mount bolt -- how-to instructions w/ photos

    I just did mine last week for my sliders install. I managed to get the passenger side front and middle bolts out being very careful, back and forth, with the reported terrible popping noises. Rear passenger bolt I couldn’t get out, just felt like it was going to snap. Gave in and bought an...
  14. DIY: Remove and replace drivers broken body mount bolt -- how-to instructions w/ photos

    Same thing I did, until the third one just felt like it was going to snap (the passenger rear) so I gave in and bought the inductive heater.
  15. Issue: THUNK!

    The body mount bolts were my first suspicion too, as I installed Rock Hard sliders recently and retorqued those bolts yesterday. Found two of them had loosened up very slightly, but that was after only about 50 miles of driving, so could have just been something wasn’t seated quite right. What...
  16. 38x11.50R17 Nitto Ridge Grappler

    Exactly what we are thinking as well. Trying to keep the stock tire width to minimize the overall track width. We’re trying for 37x11.5 but are definitely not excited about the Ridge Grapplers. Wish more manufactures would make 37/38x11.5’s.
  17. Mojave should come with 4.56 gears 4.10s dont cut it

    yep, it’s located in the screen setup. You can configure it to show the gear number as a subscript next to the D
  18. Mojave should come with 4.56 gears 4.10s dont cut it

    I just bought a 24 Rubicon also and had a ~5 hour drive home with it, and came to the same conclusion on my drive. It does really feel like it’s struggling on any grades, and kicked down to 5th a couple times. Will need to see how it feels in ~2k miles after everything is broken in. I already...
  19. Premium Audio but no wireless speaker

    My 24 Rubicon has the speaker, it's included in the Technology Group, which also has the Alpine audio and the front camera. Pricey option pack though at $2295.
