Wow, wow, WOW! Looks like a blast! What group were you with?

I'm near San Jose and a newbie...
This was with brotherhood 4wd club. I’m not part of any club just tagging along with people as I’m invited. We are planning a Rubicon Trail run soon will let you know!!

Haven't been able to do anything yet, waiting on my GCM Sport S to ship, my window sticker came today, but my wife couldn't wait anymore, and I think she was getting jealous of me oogling over my soon to be Gladiator, so she traded her 2016 Cherokee Limited for a 2019 Wrangler Unlimited on Saturday. We spent 6 hours at the dealer, but saved her over $8k on her final price, and got above market value for her trade. The Gladiator/Wrangler forums helped us go in with a lot of ammo to counter the crap pricing they were trying to push. She's the one with the money in the family, so she'll beat me to the upgrades.

Installed this today. Amazing for $147 shipped, and it locks, unlike the Mopar one..... :CWL::LOL:
I installed mine today ... embarrassed how long it took me. I could not get it to click in place, finally realized the rails were slightly too far apart. Now I finally have someplace to put my soft top and window that is protected. Golf clubs will be next.

I'm looking at your tailgate JEEP letters. Did you hand paint those?

Finally got bigger shoes. One hell of a deal too IMO. 35" KO2's on steel wheels. Only 50 miles on them. $500 for all five! Crazy the size difference too.
I also added the black decorative door hinge covers. They came in glossy black but I sprayed them in matte black to match the other black plastic on the truck.

How's your Overland handling the larger tires? Is it shifting into 8th gear at highway speeds? Are you considering re-gearing?

Handled well the last few days. I'm flipping out wheels right now so I'll pay more attention to the driving and keep you posted.

Where can these be purchased?
many places have them, but you should buy from https://dirtyacres.com/ IMHO
I ordered one that was double sided, unfortunately there was an error and one of the sides was the wrong picture. Contacted them, they sent me a brand new one with the right picture. For free!

So now I have 2 grille inserts, one to hang on the wall as art. They are super nice, super fast, Customer service top notch. I believe one owner is a former Marine, and its made in America!
10% off coupon if you use FREEDOM at checkout.

No i don't work for them, get a kickback, I just support good businesses that have done right by me. They're in Texas, i'm in Middle Wisconsin. lol :movember:
