RUBICON rails fit JT?

RUBICON rails fit JT?

Not the thread starter, but the JT Rubicon rails fit any JT. I had a set from my buddy's Rubicon Gladiator on mine that I swapped out with Overland side steps. (For side protection)

Got out and played in the snow for a bit.

Looks like we may be adding to the Jeep family. The wife has been wanting to get a Jeep since I got my gladiator and Carmax offered a great deal on trade in and found this little gem. Always thought Carmax was overpriced but haven’t found anything close to this price unless it has way more mileage or roll up windows and the cheaper stereo. 31k with those features plus the oem switch panel and the extras he added which make it a solid deal. Just gotta wait for it to be shipped.

Not perfect but really like how it turned out.

Wow! This was a great build and Gobi is such an awesome color for a Gladiator! I can't believe you are starting over with a Rubicon but I look forward to seeing what all you do to it.

Great build and also welcome to the Gobi family! Did you paint the dash inserts or were they purchased somewhere? Those small touches definitely spruce up the interior.

This turned out great! I see you’re in NM? I’m in Albuquerque and will have to keep an eye out for your rig.

Thats awesome. Sadly, I just traded her in and upgraded to a Rubicon. Got an awesome deal on trade in more then I paid for it plus a nice discount on the Rubicon.

Installed Rubi sliders on the Sport S. Not perfect but will offer protection until I get a proper rear end. Found the brackets and sliders on eBay as a fresh take off for 300. Still can’t believe how expensive these things go for compared to the Rubi sliders. But we’ll worth the protection.

Glad to see someone actually do this. I have these left over from my Rubicon that I've thought about putting on my Texas Trail but it looks like a lot of work and cutting.

no I painted these myself with matching paint from Mopar.

thanks. Not completely starting over as I stripped it back to stock and kept majority of the parts. Only thing I lost was the lift which I sold to my neighbor to get his stock parts. Also had to sell the wheels.
