Thanks for answering all my questions :)... I'm undecided on what route to go, but the deflater feature of the Tera Flex wheels is a huge motivator.
I have the grey teraflex on my hydro gladiator. There should be a few pictures on here of mine that you can get an idea from.

No drone at highway speeds. There is a grown sometimes at lower speeds but it's always just when you're on the gas. Cruising around it sounds stock.

Did not notice any power increase. It does seem like the truck wants to rev higher when you get on the gas, but it certainly didn't make me go any faster. I'm at ~ 900 feet I believe.
Thanks. I’m never going to be a forced induction customer with a pentastar, but at my altitude (8,600’), I can definitely tell it bogs down a lot in comparison to driving it at low altitudes. After a recent trip to Alabama, it was way more powerful closer to sea level. I’d love a way to get a little more air into the engine without risking blowing it up with a supercharger.

Can you show us how you did the light?
I have a couple picks. Light bar is mounted with a couple 50lb magnets (I'll add epoxy once I'm positive I don't want to move it). Wiring is run on magnetic zip tie holders and tied in to the aux wiring by the battery. The back half of the hood scoop is glued on, popped the clips and then a little prying with a pocket knife and it came right off. Nothing to it really.

I have not posted on here in a while, but when I was coming home from smoky mountain jeep invasion in August, I got rear ended coming off an off ramp on 81 in Virginia. In turn it pushed me into a rav 4 in front of me. I had to get a new rear bumper, tailgate, front bumper, passenger side head light, and winch. My collision guy was pretty chill and I was able to get an aftermarket front bumper out of it. I decided to go with Artec and I’m really happy with the looks of it. It took a lil over a month to get everything buttoned up, waiting for parts, insurance etc. I also went to krawling for k9s on the 21st at AOAA and it was a blast. Def some puckering moments, the trails there are tight! Heard a guy refer to the Gladiator as the land yacht. Was able to get the Barney rubble badge too!

Had installed N-Fab Predator Pro steps. Not a fan. The driver side front step is set too far forward for me, they show too much of the pinch seam, and there are only three mount points instead of the four stock hardware uses. I was able to get it a little closer to the body and a little higher up but I had to not use one of the bolts on the rear pinch seam.
Super light though, which is the only thing I like about them.

My GoRhino steps only attach at 3/4 mounting points as well.

Best $159 dollar mod yet! Took about 2 weeks to get from Distinction Applied. Perfect match.

Lemme know when you hit up AOAA or Rausch and maybe I can tag along if you need another Jeep. Not sure what type of sliders you have, but I would def have some for crawl daddy, and depending what line you take on Barney rubble.
