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

[mcolbyb]

Installed the @Bestop two piece doors and the Lange original mirrors. Passenger side mirror is useless with upper half of door on. Pretty good fit and some minor tweaking to be done. Overall, I am very pleased. Will run like this all summer.

How are the mirror? I wanted to get those but worried about the cost and wondered if it was worth it.

Today was an easy one... Added Wireless CarPlay (picture of the module installed below)... Installed a Tazer JL Mini & the quadratec center console organizer.. All of about 10 minutes, most of which was playing with the Tazer.

How do you like your CPLAY2air?

Put on DV8 side steps. Like the look and my son can now get into the Jeep on his own. Install was okay, had to open us the pinch seem holes to fit.

So far so good. The auto connect is on the slow side, but it’s not so bad that you notice it if you start the engine before doing all the seatbelt and other assorted crap before you start driving as it’s on before I make it out of the driveway.

If you are running the mirrors for just going doorless then they are great. Upper half of door blocks the passenger side. Other than that they are fine. I also have some kikbax I use.

I hadn’t considered that due to my OCD wanted them perfectly level and parallel to each other, but that might work. It’s close enough I also thought about just slotting the bracket more on the cowling and each light bracket.

I do run them perfectly even and level on the street. This is really just for maintenance/routing wires, or maybe slow cruising on the beach. I haven't actually run on the road with the windshield down. I'm not sure of the legality of it here in TN so I haven't taken the chance.

Used a clay bar and got most of the bedliner over spray off that the dealership did. Wash it. Waiting on my Led Turn signals to be delivered today

Saw some very reasonably priced EAG tube doors on another thread and ordered a set of four last week. Perfect day today to install and go for a ride through country roads. Next week will see a 2.5 suspension lift and 35-ish Ridge Grapplers.

Not technically my JT but setup jeep tent behind it in yard today.

They fit very well. I'll probably rerun my wire thru the frame. Is it possible to run the cord down the lenght of the frame?

Yes my wires are inside the frame from the rear all the way to the front. Never had to pull out or anything.

Finally installed my Synergy brace and track bar.

Added morale patches to the headliners today. Since I have factory headliners, I used 3M Command strips to attach which worked out great. My wife & I usually collect stickers/patches throughout our travels & place them everywhere (wife's Wrangler hardtop, kayaks, water bottles, laptops, coolers, etc). Will be a cool story board over the years. Thought it fitting to begin with a few of my military patches over the years. Still have a few to add, but here's the progress thus far.

Also, Plasti-Dipped the stubby antenna (Rydonair 13-inch). Didn't like how the bottom was carbon fiber.

Got my HotHeads Headliners installed & then went for a short drive & snapped a couple photos of my Jeep.. I think the first ones since I took the dealer plates off. .

Finally installed my Synergy brace and track bar.

Installation looks good, how long did it take you to install? Please share your thoughts on how well it fixed your loose steering after driving some miles with it. Thanks

Got my LED turn signal bulbs in and set the DRL to turn signal. Glad I did because just having the Halogens on as DRL for a few minutes really made them hot. I feel like they would have done some damage running constantly. Maybe not. Pictures

Had to trim the tabs a little to get them to fit but they were free So I can't complain
