Make the toughest bed mats around!! Somebody has to do it!
I picked up a Black Armour Bed Mat to flatten out the natural contours of the bed to make the surface better for him to ride on. It is made of recycled tires and for the first day it had a tire odor which went away. Really recommend this bed mat it is tough and never slides or blows around.

"Glad" to hear it worked out!!

This. This is so good. I love this setup.
Can you tell me what options you got in your build? I was looking at all cab and rsi but this seems fine to me also. Love how it's setup. I have a decked system to and a golden retriever, just not enough room really for him with my softopper. This looks super nice, especially with the lights. Amazing work!

stretch out, albeit with the tailgate open, when camping in the boonies. The Walmart tailgate seat fits

As I recall, I optioned the insulation, dual strip LED lighting, triple 12v socket, windoors left and right, sliding front glass that is also removable for cleaning, and the bigger A.R.E. roof basket.

A year later, I'm still very happy with it.

thanks for your response. You sure bridged the gap of "I want stuff put away but where I can get to it." that my mind also tries to strive for.

Thank you. I've tweaked it to be even better since those pics were posted. My GSD jumps in there ready to go anytime I open the back. He loves it.

I do have the steel bumper. The hardest part of the install is the contortions of crawling into the drivers floorboard and installing the brake cables.

I called Ready Brute, told them I have the Ready Brute Elite II and Maximus 3 tow loops and they made a set of shackles for about $ $110 or so. Took about a week
Hey could you post photo of how you setup the breakaway/brake cable on Gladiator for ready brute elite tow bar. I am trying to get mine setup so we can pull it like we did our 15 Wrangler, just nervous cuz this is newer Jeep. I have the maximus tow loops with my custom clevics for it already. Which taillight braking wiring harness/kit did you use? I'm in RVA if you wouldnt might meeting up and or helping me install the cables, by the way your Gladiator setup is sweet!

I'm TDY elsewhere right now. The install is not hard, as far as figuring it out, just getting into the floorboard to clamp it, and the emergency cable, to the brake pedal. I didn't want to drill my oem steel bumper, so I drilled the soft plastic piece that the fairlead for the winch mounts to. Zoom in on the pic to see what I'm talking about. Keep the cable away from fans or anything that moves or gets real hot and you'll be fine. I wish I had more pics. Not sure when I'll be home, if you're following the news you'll see things are a bit tense right now. Hoping I don't miss much of RV season

I have the Cooltech wiring harness

I see you went with the Double T door for the rear window - was there a reason for that vs just the single T in the middle of the glass?

I was always able to gain entry without a key on the single center entry caps. The double entry, while more of a pain, quite frankly is more secure

Out of curiosity, did you notice any change in your fuel mileage with the cap alone?

Not that I could tell. The cap is pretty light, my guess under 200lbs
