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

[Vtur]

Added an alarm trigger to my ARE cap rear door. I tied to the hood ajar circuit. Had to soldered in a 1k ohm resistor in series for it to function as intended. The factory switch has two 1k ohm resistors in a parallel circuit. 1st one is shorted and 2nd one only shorted when hood is open. The BCM sensing wire are expecting to sees 1k ohm when hood close (switch open) and 500 ohm when hood open (switch closed).

Expedition Builds on YouTube gave me the idea to cover the rear of the stubby bumper to protect the wiring fro the fogs and make it a bit easier to keep clean, (). There is another EXPENSIVE option that is really cool, but $30 for the plastic and time to shape them was all I needed to do this myself. 3/16th" ABS from Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0DC7Q7BML/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1), scrap cardboard, a white paint marker and heat gun. Patience while molding is necessary too, but I am happy with the outcome.

Must be in the air, was looking at this option this morning.

You could just throw $250 to this guy for some coolness:

As much as I like to think I'm made of money, I am not. Maybe others here will be able to support them.

I just put $15k into my 24 RubiconX and I'm the one whining about another $250. I have a problem.

Yes, it's the Quadratec Gen II Stealth LED Interior Mount 50” Light Bar. Another easy install and I love the result. Very bright and really lights up the dark! The only con is that it reduces a couple of inches of visibility with the light bar there... but I'm still happy with it.

Looks great. I'm interested in this too. Question: did you have to remove the hard top panels like the instructions said. When I move the sun visor over I can undo the latch and it looks like the torx screws are fully accessible.

Installed the Sherpa Sunlight Roof rack and my forerunner rails on my RSI Smartcap today.

The best performance improvement made today:

Finally did the ball joints. Much better now!

Installed Quadratec Stealth LED Auxiliary Radius Cube Lights. Easy install and they work great.

I have these (3.5” version) and their 50” slimline light bar coming Wednesday. Did you go with their harness for the DRL function? I plan on hooking mine up to my Garmin Powerswitch. I assume I’ll lose out on the DRL function or at most lose out on toggling between amber and white. They look badass nonetheless.

Do you remember what size receiver tube and press did you used? I'm looking to buy a set.

A little late evening quick mod. Added the BubbasGarage.Tv (https://bubbasgarage.tv/) 550 cord grab handles (driver and passenger side) to my Sherpa Sunlight roof rack. Color matched, of course.

Great set up! Looks like you are ready for anything!

I do not remember, I borrowed the set from advanced auto and it had the sizes in it. It was alittle difficult with their sizes as they barely fit.

As soon as I can reinstall my Road shower, Maxtrax recovery boards, IceCo 75L fridge & slider, Kickass shower awning and ARB 2500 tent awning I will be. THANKS!
