  1. Thoughts on having dedicated street and trail tires

    If you're going to do that, why not get 31" street tires for the daily and 38" for the trail? I got 35 as a compromise between the two. Before the trails I was building cars for the track. In that scene some had a second set of track tires because they weren't street legal. But most ran street...
  2. Storage hacks and ideas

    Obviously, that's why they engineered these with a suitcase muffler.
  3. Storage hacks and ideas

    I need the seats for the daily, and on trips dogs sit up front, wife sits in the back. Occasionally we bring 1 person with us, so 3 sit in the back. Not a true overland trailer, but the pop-up is lifted as high as the jeep, and could accommodate an AC unit, but my 2 lithium batteries cannot.
  4. Storage hacks and ideas

    I forgot to mention I have 2 dogs, a kid, and a wife with high standards... We go for 5+ day trips, and prefer to be over prepared; regardless we can't fit everything and the items we choose to leave behind end up being the items we end up needing most.
  5. Storage hacks and ideas

    After downsizing from a full size pick up, I've had to downsize my camping/overlanding gear to fit the smaller bed and cab. I prefer the look of pickup over SUV so don't want to get a bed cap or rack and roof rails are a no go because I use the soft top regularly. The pop-up trailer is also...
  6. A Tale of Four Gladiator's....Goldilocks and the Three Bears

    I suppose that's cheaper than modifying.
  7. A Tale of Four Gladiator's....Goldilocks and the Three Bears

    How much money did you lose on this? Or are things different in your region?? What if the answer is the first one was the best one, will/can you go back?
  8. Procrastination Pays Sometimes - Fender Bender

    I agree with all this and hate that this is the world we live in. On one hand it's the fault of the insurance companies; with their excessive premiums, low payouts, and arbitrary denied claims. It's almost like you're paying into a lottery, so when your number is called you gotta do what you...
  9. What is this panel for in the bed on the driver side?

    Lots of assumptions floating around so I'll throw out a guess no one else has: Tailgate Bluetooth speaker.
  10. Cut and clamp exhaust for breakaway protection?

    The Internet told me that first resonator helps manage drone, so I considered replacing it with a lower profile res or glass pack... how does yours sound with a straight pipe? Did you keep the big muffler and smaller down stream resonator?
  11. Cut and clamp exhaust for breakaway protection?

    Last summer I high centered the gladiator and something hit the resonator (under the driver's seat area) hard enough to pull it the whole system causing the catalytic converter to pull away from the engine header. Which caused it to leak, a ticking noise, exhaust fumes, and a $2000 repair. This...
  12. Rate my overland setup

    What suspension upgrade do you have? There's like 0 squat!
  13. Issue: Transmission popping out of gear when wheeling

    I've only ever driven manuals where you can hold the stick in gear so can't help... Is it possible this is a failsafe program for towing... the jeep thinks it's being towed so switches to N? Also, would love to see 60's on 5.38 lol
  14. Hood latch mounted mirrors.

    I have cowl mounted mirrors (given as a gift, never used since the doors stay on) and I've seen many people with these. I saw a new mirror option that mounts with 2 heavy duty suction cups. You can put it on the fender or hood or anywhere. For jeeps without doors, or towing mirrors.
  15. Frame mounted rock sliders

    Funcion and features = pinch welds coverage and a step with traction?
  16. Frame mounted rock sliders

    I had my eye on Smittybilt SRC rock sliders that mount to the frame. But they replaced the SRC with Apollo and I'm not a fan of the look. I found rough country sliders are fram mount but it doesn't cover the pinch welds like SB. And the RC is tucked in more which is good for ground clearance...
