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

[RudeJeepin]

What did I do today? I replaced the batteries... the AUX especially! That was some fun Now its all running peachy!

I did the same yesterday, except having the diesel has its perks. The aux battery is just 2 bolts away after removing the main.

Finally completed the PPE trans pan install. Looks cool . Trans will last forever . Thinking about a PPE engine crankcase aluminum cover just to keep busy.

They make the upper oil pan? I really wanted to put their oil pan on after doing the trans pan, but it’s too deep for my skid plates I think.

Yeah I know. Never count pennies in front of the poor . Getting the PDC off was like pulling my hair out strand by strand. But it’s done… finished it off with a tasty whisky . Now no need to worry for three more years

Left my truck running at the Lowes, came back out and I had a brand new U shaped crack in the windshield when I came back out. NO rock chips prior either. Super annoyed with myself. I know better than to leave it with the defrost blasting

Sucks. Sorry. I’ve had it happen too.

I was just congratulating myself for not taking any rocks to the glass in a long time too. Stupid.. My first windshield lasted 4 months before a rock took it. This one lasted about 3 years

sorry for digressing…but This pic completely defines why all the internals of my JT operates at near surface of the sun temperature.
btw: great job on the extra protection.

I had to add spacers between the transmission mount and crossmember to lower the crossmember 1/4”. That’s what I needed to gain clearance. It’s really tight down there. I looked for a way to have custom exhaust made to eliminate the crossover, but couldn’t see a good path.

I designed a flush mount for my Midland speaker over the long icy weekend. Printed it out and Installed it in the storage bin under the rear seat tonight. It’s my first 3D design, but I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.

It has to be a tuned exhaust. There is a reason why there is that piggytail curly Q on the drivers side while the passenger comes down and crosses over.
In my Humble opinion it takes a cat back dual full length exhaust . And from what I can see is probably the same thing you did the gas tanks in the way.
I think I am going deaf slowly, I could use a slightly louder muffler . I had a dynaflow one time had a real mellow roar to it. . I get annoyed not being able to hear the motor till I get to about 3000rpms.

Just use a flex pipe and pop it out both sides under the rear door!! Go full on Hot Rod!!!
