Added a winch and the D-ring loops from Maximus-3. The loops were a pain, the documentation was wrong, but the end result is good. Glad I eyeballed the cut marks before cutting.

Just installed a flowmaster flowfx exhaust. Kind of hate it. Feels way louder than advertised. Kind of obnoxious actually. Especially past 3k rpms. Wondering if there is a break in period. Time will tell. Having trouble uploading a video of the exhaust note.

A friend did that on his JK and I hated it also. Super annoying. You may need to add or replace some parts to get it quieter. His never changed over time.

Colors remind me of the CJ Golden Eagle I loved as a kid. Cool looking for sure

Yea I did flowmaster exhaust on my Gladiator. It's a bit louder than I wanted as well but the dual exhausts out the rear sides is nice. I may go with quieter mufflers later...

Installed the Bestop Sunrider soft top. Twice.

Why twice? I would love one of these but I'm worried about the AZ sun destroying it and the heat during the summer months since I am always parked outside.

Buy the twill one if you're worried, lifetime warranty. I installed one a few weeks back and absolutely love it since I never really plan to take the rear hard top off.

Have you driven with the top down? Gets pretty annoying.

My dashboard is now in the back seat. Metra speaker pods with Kenwood 6.5's, new 3.5's up on the dash, running cable for my interior fuse block and inverter/future second battery, and finishing the aux switches install.

All I can say is that satan must have been on the engineering team that built this dash because I've never seen so much effort to remove a speaker.

There's an essential bit of tucking and situating that isn't in the instructions and not really apparent when assembling. Got everything installed and the back corner of the passenger side was lifted and I could see inside. Ended up undoing most of the install, using this thread which pointed out exactly what I did wrong:

https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/bestop-sunrider-adjustment.28495/post-461117

So, once I figured out how to properly get that corner aligned it was all good.
