Black Overland build winding down

[Teleman51]

Getting my Gladiator to where it needs to be in it's "Happy Box". My build includes but is not limited to; 2" Mopar lift, Pro Comp 17" wheels w/ 35" AT Sport tires, 67 Design phone mount, LoD Destroyer frt. bumper, Tazer JL, Weather Teck frt, mats, Hot Heads roof liners, Line-X bed liner, Rugged Ridge frt. and rr entry guards, AEV tube doors, M.O.R.E. dead pedal, Ohio Diesel driver's seat tilt spacers, AntennaX stubby antenna, center console storage bin, Gladiator multi tool and waiting on Rock Slide to ship the step sliders. Installation on some parts is still a work in progress. I bought 2 different JKs while waiting on the rumored Jeep truck. I used my pending retirement in one month as my excuse to gift myself probably my last new jeep. Love seeing and reading what others here on the forum are doing to their Gladiators and to those who are still waiting, may you be blessed with the truck of your dreams. After all, everybody needs a truck, Right!

Can you elaborate on the seat tilt kit? Specifically which one? How difficult was it to install? Does it lift the whole seat (reduce head space above) or just tilt the seat to provide more support under the drivers legs?

Unfortunately I have not installed this kit yet but I'll try to answer your ?'s. I purchased this kit last week during amazon prime days along with the dead pedal. After hearing what a bugger it is to install the pedal my plan is to remove the seat to allow more room, install pedal then add spacers when reinstalling the drivers seat. Found the kit on amazon site from Ohio Diesel Parts, # JSK-4000JL-F. Their add says it lifts the seat 1 to 1.5 inches. Somebody posted a ? to mfg. about tilt. Their answer was it added both height and tilt, thats the only reason I bought it.
