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

[Sespe]

Did you have to add/change the diff fluid after removing the bolts? The reason I was planing on the Metalcloak Is that they just attach with u bolts, but I am not sure if either method of attachment is better than the other.

i have a Mojave and am having some shackles powder coated to match now. I would probably have the skids matched too though it is unlikely anyone will see them.

That was a concern of mine until the actual install. There were plenty of bolts still attached so the cover never moved. No leaks then, and I checked daily for a week until I quit worrying.

PRP custom seat covers have been installed!
What I did today was finally post about em!
I spent the last few months giving em a good break-in along with the rest of the kit that has been installed since the fall.

I absolutely love em. The tweed can be a little “itchy” feeling on bare skin, or through thin shirts, but seems like its just something that’s gotten better with age and a little break-in. I knew that of the material itself, not to any fault of PRP.

They clean up real nice, installed without a lot of hassle (just tossed em in the dryer for a few minutes to warm each cover up and helped stretch it really easily), and really have just made for a cool style in the cabin.

Cool seats, more importantly I want to hug your dog.

Swapped out my Max Tow flares for Rubicon flares w/led's.
Can't really tell from these pics, but the Rubi fenders are 2K Raptor lined and 2K SprayMax clear coated

This is on my to do list for sure

Added Quadratec's Maglite holder. I just love my old Maglites, and the side of the seat is the perfect location. The clips connect to the seat side rail with no drilling. I've got a couple of 30 year old Mag Lites that use "D" cells. These are water proof, made out of metal, and come in handy if you feel threatened. My kids gave me crap that the old bulbs were not bright, so I upgraded them with high power LED bulbs. Nothing better than Old School Muscle Power.

Im in Louisiana and so far it seems I will be driving out of State as well. My search for a competent re-gear shop seems to constantly send me 4-5 hours over to Tx. Not near as far as you had to travel but still. I have gone to multiple places here in CenLa asking for a reference and no one seems to be able to provide any info.


Search continues.....or Ill be heading to Dallas as of right now.

You may want to try Searchers 4wd in Prairieville, which is just south of Baton Rouge. I was talking with the owner (Phillip) yesterday about regearing. The number is 225-744-4947.

You rock! Thanks!

THat was the Company I was trying to contact, of course I used their website with a whole spill on what I wanted and used my Jeep for. I was actually going to contact them via phone today and will do so now. I guess I will be in line behind you, lol!!

I washed it. I washed it Saturday afternoon, Sunday morning, two trips through the carwash on Sunday afternoon, and lastly today.
It was quite the mess.

Moved our tow strap to center of our rear headliner. Still optimizing all the gained storage area.

Just installed my front and rear roll bar/grab handle pieces and the left and right rear-seatback panels. Excellent quality materials! I haven't had a chance to start hanging things on them yet (too cold to stand around outside contemplating and fiddling with things...), but looking forward to moving a lot of stuff off the backs of the front seats and off the floor behind the rear seats. I did have to remove the grab handle on the driver's roll bar, though - I'm 6'2" and it kept hitting me in the head when I got into the truck (that Lizardskin pulled the watch cap off my head more than once). I wouldn't actually call that a complaint or a shortcoming, but aside from that..."no complaints"! Thanks for a great product and great customer service, too!

Thank you for your order! The idea came from watching a body flop his rock crawler on its side and everything falling out of his rig!


Regarding the hight, As you saw how to remove the handles you can stretch it out to other molle slots which will rase or lower the handle hight. I have it closer together on the passenger side so my wife can reach. On the drive side I have it farther apart and more forward for the same reason.

Need to make some videos of that

THose look great! Waiting on my PRP to arrive. Any install tricks? or just be patient?

And no real tricks. I tossed them all in the dryer at a low temp and pulled them out one at a time to slip it over. You will want to unbolt the seat(s) but its easy to do. No real gotchas. Just take time, and warming the covers helps stretch the vinyl over the plastic trims on the seat.

I darkened up the license plate light to cut down on the glare at night in reverse worked pretty good. I didn't take any pictures though

Did you ever get any pics? I don’t like how it washes out the backup camera either.
