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

[WILDHOBO]

Rear track bar relocation bracket today. It was a crazy severe angle with its new height. Just need to measure and adjust the track bar length. And see if it fits out of the garage. It took longer as there was a factory casting booger that prevented me from getting the bracket up against the pumpkin casting. Tiny bit of sanding, some paint, a heat gun, and I could continue.

I see a problem with that bracket. It's somehow different than the rest of your undercarriage. Oh, yeah - it's TOO CLEAN

The trust but verify marks are smart on any Jeep suspension part.

I’ll get it dirty pretty quickly.

Not too quickly, you still have break in mileage left sir.

Other end torqued.

Definitely. I’ve got around 200 on it now. So I can go up to 65, but I’m not exceeding that. I’ll drive it to Denver and back to pickup up some brakes for my wife’s car and I’ll be another 60-70 in.

I’m realizing that I should have done it two years ago.

The Clayton bent adjustable. I’ve had it since 2022. Still going strong. It needed a refresher in the vise with more Antiseize, but no corrosion after over 3 years is impressive.

I swear its like that with every addition to these Jeeps

No question.

YES!!!!!!! It fit out of the garage. I had way more room than I expected. I am LOVING the stance. So much work over a long period of time. Thanks for everyone’s support. Many of you helped more than you know, and it does not go unnoticed. 🥹

Just went for a neighborhood dirt road test drive with the kids in the bed. No noises. The new rear springs are SO much more comfortable. It might be close to perfect. Ha ha. I’ll change it every year.
