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

These are not solid like some - you can get "solid rubber" that actually doesn't compress. These compress and supposedly add to the spring rate.
They call it a "buffer"

What about air bags for the front springs? No saying they would be better, just asking.

Can't put air bags in due to bump stops. That would be ideal, but.......... can't be done.

Oh, ya. Forgot about the hydraulic bump stops under the front.

Ordered my 2.5 King shocks with remote reservoirs and adjusters from @Northridge4x4 .

Made an exterior addition to be more festive.

Unintended tire replacement later this week. I'm thinking it's a delayed split from a run through Kane Creek outside Moab. Front driver tire. Noticed it today.

That sucks. But could be worse. And we wouldn’t buy these expensive tires if we didn’t want great offroad traction.

Lucky I run a matching spare tire and rim, so I'll get the new and add it into the tire rotation pattern, back right as that's most likely to spin under loose traction over the others, and less likely to affect tracking down the road. I'm at 15k on this set, and no limited slip to worry about. It'll even out soon enough.

Yeah. You’ll be fine. That’s not a ton of miles yet. Worst case if it bugs you, you could switch to 4 way for the remainder of the other four’s lives. Then you’d have a new one waiting.

Just picked up a new to me 2023 Gladiator Mojave w/25000 miles and started modding it. So far it has a Best Top folding top in place of the freedom panels, winch bumper and HF 12000lb winch, 2 HF offroad lights, and 35in KO2s on Method bead-grip wheels. It came with the side steps which I will be replacing with something that will actually slide on a rock.

Installed a Gapshield to hopefully reduce most of the dust.

Got new sneakers for my baby...'20 Overland still had the factory Bridgestone Dueler HTs on her. They lasted for 43,7xx miles.

Got Hankook Dynapro AT2 tires in the 265/70/18 flavor (just one size wider than the factory 255s).

I've had these before on my '08 Grand Cherokee Overland (Hemi) and loved them. Went through snow like they were on dry pavement and they were VERY quiet on the road.

My Overland looks MUCH better with the beefier tires

Sent my last payment today

Traded it in on a heavily discounted brand new 2025 Wrangler Sport. The Gladiator fun but Im just partial to the Wrangler.

Mind mentioning the tire brand?
