So there I was, strolling through my newest local HFT and low and behold I found a NEW item and couldn't resist. I've been waiting patiently for its release and buying lights while I was waiting...

Now I just need an install day for my bumper, Badlands winch, lights, and switchbox panel.

Had no idea they were coming out with one. I’ll have to take a look. Thanks for the heads up!!!

60A panel that sounds about like the right price. I’ll have to do some mathing and see if this will have enough umph for my lighting plans. If nothing else this would be great for an in bed lighting setup for camp.

This didn't seem to fit into any of the other "What did you do ____ your Gladiator" so I made it for all the ancillary things which are necessitated by our beloved hunks of metal, plastic, and petroleum products.

Been wanting this for a while.

I lifted the back 3" and didn't like stuffing wood blocks under the jack to get sufficient altitude.

This should cover it for the 3½" lift on the front. 28½"!! 24¼" without the load spreader which I don't think is going to work too well.

Harbor Freight piled all their features into this jack: low profile, high lift, and the all convenient foot pump for $229 no discount.
I hate paying retail but my last excursion was way too wonky trying to make the shorter jacks work.

My new jack is excited to meet the Gladiator.

I just left Harb Freight. I got the lightweight aluminum Jack-stands, for carrying in the back. They look like a pole with a round base. I saw this one....but it doesn't come in Red.
However, I see this Jack on Amazon, I wonder if it is as good as Harb Freight?

That thing is super skinny. I’d pass just on that premise.

What I did for my Gladiator today was submit a product idea to Morimoto. I want to see a hybrid of the Diode Dynamics functionality with the AuxBeam slim switch panel form. I also suggested smaller pod lights that get a DRL. The 2 Bangers look great but if they don’t have a DRL I can’t really use em in a way that I get a ROI.

If you received that link for product suggestions, FILL IT OUT!!!! Let these guys know what the end users who actually put products to work want. It’s the only way product innovation goes in the right direction. The product development guy in the back room who drives a Nissan Versa to and from work and has never set foot on a trail has no clue how an off-road light is really going to function in different situations outside of what’s written on paper or what a YT influencer says.

Well , I am behind in spilling me guts in here.
On July 13th and 14th I had the Jeep regeared ( it is doing very well)and also had front axle joints replaced and rear axle bearings.
Then this past Saturday the 1st I changed Both front and rear differential lube and changed ths rear locker as I was leaving from getting it regeared the locker sensor failed . So I had to buy 1-5 and try em till one worked which it turned out to be #1
Ok Stellantis and Dana/Spicer that is ridiculous cause now I have 4 more brand new sensors that wont get used since now I know it was #1 that did the job.
Stellantis & Dana figure out which years took what so we don't have to buy a 5 piece kit and just use 1 of them.
