I replaced the stock suspension with some rubicon takeoffs and added the teraflex 1.5” leveling kit. This was my first “big” mod and think it turned out great! What should I do next?

Looks amazing. Drove it until you find something you’d like it to do better. It all depends on use case.

This is better advice. I just see a plastic bumper and it makes me cringe. Lol. Listen to Dan.

I actually agree with you. Unless it’s not going to see trails, which is of course fine, a winch is a good investment. It’s a safety tool. But if it’s a beach cruiser or similar, and you’ll never use the winch, don’t put it on for looks.

Haha I do agree. I’m not the biggest fan of the plastic bumbers. I do want to eventually use it as it should be used

I've got Rubi takeoff springs, shocks, and end links from my diesel, what can a guy even get for it all these days?

I love the picture. It looks like the Gladiator is tucked away in its own bedroom and the little girl is giving it a kiss goodnight! 😃

Installed the Powerstop Z36 brake kit I bought during Prime Day(s). Factory front pads still had about 75% material left and rear had over 80% (38k miles). The stock brakes weren't bad (I don't tow). I'll see if these new ones live up to the reviews.

She likes to be involved in everything I do, I gave up on trying to keep her off the ladder haha.
