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

[Bunchahoopla]

Just got my Black Rhino Arsenals on. They are 17s with a +30 mm backspacing and tuck under the fenders well. Wrapped in Kenda Klever 35x10.5r17. Also got my 3 piece bumper installed.

Yescom canopy (Amazon: $135.00) with fabricated mount (still needs a little black paint on the mounting -used existing holes in the rollbar).

You could mount it on the other side and pull it across the jeep and always have your own carport

A little behind posting these. But added the JCR back panel and Bestop rollup cover. Love them both!

Got tired of the hinge mount mirrors.

How do these work? Clear picture with vibrations?

Love that wheel and tire combo. Great job man!

It’s pretty decent.

Getting real close to finishing the stereo upgrade. I've got the 7" head unit in my Sport S and one of my main criteria was to keep that head unit. Not long after I got the truck I added a set of the Kicker 77KICK25AB speakers. They made a noticeable, but minimal difference.

I decided to make use of some amplifiers I had sitting around the garage. I had 2 - 2 channel amps that I had tried in my Harley; an Arc Audio KS 125.2 Mini that I planned to have push the front speakers and a J&M Audio Rokker JAMP-330HC06 that I planned to have push the sound bar speakers. Then I had a Rockford Fosgate R500X1D that I planned to push a sub.

To translate between the head unit and the amps, I decided to try an AudioControl LC7i. The LC7i is an active line converter that does way more than I need right now, but it does an excellent job of converting the speaker level outputs of the stock head unit into clean, usable signal for the amplifiers. I did end up having to get a set of AudioControl AC-LGD 20s to fool the head unit into thinking it had a load. Once I added them, the system came to life and I am very impressed.

For now, below is a picture of the amps and the LC7i, before I put the back seat back in. I'll get more pictures when I get the sub installed.

I finally got to put my trail rails in the bed today. I had tapped out the threads and installed bolts before the bed liner was sprayed. Bolted right in after I installed nutserts.

Also if you want wiring ideas, I’ve already run a heavy 4AWG set of wires to the rear with blue sea plugs etc. happy to answer any questions for you.

Did you do a write up on your bed wiring with links to parts used? Looks far more useful than the stock bed plug.

Got tired of the hinge mount mirrors.

Does this style interfere with the antenna on passenger side?

Got tired of the hinge mount mirrors.

Uhhhh... you do realize that is still a hinge mount, right?

What doors are those?

Very pleased with my newly installed Yakima Overhaul HD rack. Used the track adaptor kit for the Nissan/Toyota and utilized the Toyota parts to complete the install. Very solid. Can't wait to put my 4 person Tepui tent on top and camp this weekend. Next project is a fridge wiring for my Dometic Fridge.

Bit of an update: I spoke with Yakima's Customer Service and determined that the bedrail adaptor kit is not designed to be used with the Gladiator Bed Rails and instead should use the clams. I removed the rack and reinstalled it without the bedrail kit and its very secure, and honestly cleaner looking (too dark for me to take a picture). The bedrail kit is kinda useless when all the realestate on it is used for the rack so I'm saving 110 bucks, and probably selling the rails and making back 250 of my 300 mopar investment. Tent goes on this week.

I am on the fence about my addition tonite. I had great luck with my star decals, they matched my gladiator wording perfectly. The material was the same and the coloring was spot on. I am a big fan of the 1941 references so these fender vent decals were one of my favorites. Unfortunately the material was completely different, and it was a bit of a task to get them on as they had creases in them. The material was way softer than the other decals. Took alot of patience and even some heat to get them perfect. With the colors being off, I feel it may be a bit too much on the front of my JT. I will leave them on for a bit and see if they grow on me.
