What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

[DailyMoparGuy]

Charge the batteries up using a charger. Then check for a draw with everything off.

Thanks, I’ll certainly give that a try before going to the stealership.

Also check to see that the batteries are holding a charge. I've seen bad batteries right out of the box.

@813 Fabrication & Design locking bin installed! I love it, locks unlike my 'base' bin and more space than the Jeep OE locking box.

I've got six bed rail cleats that I'm always losing in the bin so I put the divider off to the driver side and made a little compartment just to stow my cleats and tie downs.

Check the battery terminal clamps. My negative side was a touch stretched and would charge weird. When the engine compartment got hot it would change again. It would hold pretty tight but you could also wiggle it off. Replaced the clamp and all good.

Awesome! Glad you are happy with it.

What kind of shape is it in? I am in Sonoma County and will travel.
THANKS!!!!

it’s in good shape. I believe I only had it on the truck for a year.
The rear plastic is a little cloudy, but you can still see through it.

Tomorrow after work, I’ll lay down in the driveway and give it a good pressure washing.

I’ll send you some pictures

Thank you very much and I can also buy a new rear window if need be.

Finally got around to getting an alignment printout after installing my lift last fall. This evening I checked the torque on the suspension, adjusted front control arms for a little more caster, and lessened toe in a bit.

Performed my first fenderectomy today. With all the rocks I drove over and around all it took was a tree branch. Looked like I'm adding a bag of clips and a trim tool to my offload kit.

Got the Gladiator back in the shop for a Post Clayton Overland Lift / Steering checkup after a 500-ish mile break-in up on the Mogollon Rim in some insane microbursts, then down to Sedona for Broken Arrow and some slick rock articulation fun, then back closer to home for some rutted out nasty trails. Some things had loosened up, and one actually came apart - front sway bar link came apart leaving the 75+ mph highway driving afterwards a little sketchy. But I drove her this afternoon, and she's better than ever now, and ready for a fall trip to Moab and a few local trips to some undisclosed Indian ruins. :D Many thanks to Summit 4x4 and Clayton - they did a fantastic job on the Gladiator. Drives like stock or maybe better, and is articulating like a mofo.

Finished my bedside molle install and added all my recovery gear. Some things are zip tied, I ran out of straps and have to get some more.

Installed a premium twill Softopper in the disgusting heat.

I walked by it in the garage as I ran my hand across its hood and said “ not today “ as got into the TJ and drove her for the first time in 2 weeks.
Was that right ? I’m feeling kinda guilty now !

I hope not, my LJ has got jealous and demanded a new brake caliper. I've got to drive it a lot more often too, I need to wear out the tires on it. Before they crack and go flat.

It was an arduous journey to say the least

At least it's the "new D-44" bot the older generation. They can really be a P.T.A setting up gears in depending on who made the gearset.

Thanks fellas!

Congratulations on the new addition to your family.

I'm sure if I would've done any actual preparation it would've gone smoother.
