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

[DanJT]

Well, it was mid 60's today do I got off my ass and finished painting my grey hinges black..
I like how they break up the whole side a solid color.

Really straining myself today after loosing an hour of sleep ....... I haven't changed it since I picked it up from the dealer; also did the same in the JLUR.

BTW, buy them on Rockauto. No place local ever has them besides the dealer. Oh and the dealer charges $86 to do them .....no shit

C'mon, it's a Jeep, owners who need to have someone change a cabin filter should just consider the $86 Hush Money.

Yeah, it’s kinda funny they charge that much for a 4 minute job. They offered the last oil change I had done. I’m good, thanks.

If you think about it though, five people touch the job to some degree. The service advisor, porter, service tech, parts and cashier.

Cheapskate Charlie here. If I can install the lift and other shit.....I think I can handle the stupid cabin air filter

Went from snowboarding fresh snow on my local ski hill yesterday with my son to wrenching in my driveway today on a 60+ degree day. Gotta love Pittsburgh weather.

Threw on a Fox steering stabilizer with the Clayton relocation bracket.

I added the Metal Cloak Dead Pedal… Lamest “What did I do today” post ever . Honestly the surprise of how nice it is, is making me order a second from my JLU as well. Now if only I can find a Rubi steel takeoff for super cheap here in the Boston/NH area I would be stoked…

Swapped my rear bumper for a great condition mopar steel. A friend that replaced his passed it down. Mine was in pretty rough shape, but it did its job and there was zero body damage.

While I was at it I moved my rear dash cam camera from the license plate area to the left side of the tailgate handle.

After all was done. Washed it.

Wknd stuff:

- Installed Boom Mat:

I think this stuff does a good job of reducing the ambient noise in the cabin. If U ever take your Jeep through a touchless carwash, U know it sounds like your heads gonna explode. Much better now. I can hear myself think during that process, radio sounds better too and temperature variations also seem to have been affected positively . Amazon price was $285 so sounded like a good deal. Install was pretty easy overall. Didnt take any photos on rear but rolled it on top of my bed cover and installed everything right there. All in all it only took maybe 90 minutes including top removal and reinstallation.

- Sheam Dead Pedal & matching brake and gas pedal covers:
Install was pretty easy, about 90 minutes. Little bling for my feet. Dead pedal was a need, hopefully it will bring some comfort to me and my wife and stop me from tearing up the left front carpet with my foot.

Your upgrades are great. But Carpet in the jeep, that would not work out well for me, I’m in the dirt and mud too much.

Must be spring. Installed the Sunrider today.

I added Oracle Lighting LED reverse lights. Easy install using the adapter. Bright as hell.

Crutchfield JBL dash speakers. I used their adapter for an easy install. Takes a little wiggling to get it in the dash. Sound is a little better. I’d say it was well worth the price.

RedRock Utility Rail System. Fits great and very well made. Used a tap to clear the factory spray in bed liner. Extreme Terrain says they are no longer selling it. I paid less than $200

New tires. Finally looking like a Jeep. I went with BFG KO3s in 285/75/18. No rub at all. Only time it’s off road is taking the family to a drive on beach. Doing a level in the next week or 2. Planning on going with Teraflex.

DAMN YOU, @Supazuk , damn you to HELL! Parts on order. This is like being in AA and taking another drink! I blame you for my weakness!

Now also looking at the Oracle low profile wrap around tinted (smoked) tail lights. This is going to get expensive!

 

[Hootbro]

Keep those updates coming!

I would suggest merging this thread with the other one that opened when you closed this one 6 years ago. I doubt anybody wants to post to this thread when the other one is going strong and not have a 6 year gap.
