On June 8th I went traveled about 8 hours one way to Greensboro, NC and traded my 2020 JLU Diesel on this thing due to the desire of a truck bed. So far, it’s been nothing short of amazing. My plans for the Jeep are simple as it will be my DD, but who knows where it’ll go if we’re being honest.

The Gladiator came with a few mods on it to begin with.
Small RCX lift
22x12 Vision Rockers
37 12.50 22 Yokahoma Geolander MTs

First thing out the gate for me was blacking out all the emblems and added a vent graphic. For this route I chose to plastidip. Also, installed a stubby antenna.

Around a month ago, I added some N-Fab step bars to help the wife and kids get in. They took a min to get used to coming from the rock sliders. Shortly after I sprayed my bed using a Raptor Liners kit. Kit was great came with the gun, measuring cup, and four bottles that screw directly to the gun. So far it’s holding up great.

Yesterday I installed the Faux Rubicon steel bumper. I was holding out for an OEM set, but I picked one up for a price I couldn’t refuse. The packaging was rough to put it nicely. I swapped over the OEM tow hooks, leds, and harness from my plastic bumper using the brackets that came with the bumper and some speed nut clips from TSC. I sourced OEM fog light bezels as these come with sensor holes in them.

The hoop that came with the bumper took most of the beating in shipping. I scuffed it up and resprayed it today. The bumper is a finished product for now.
