MBRP 3” dpf back exhaust went on christmas day! Btw I dont know about other guys but I can hear a difference. Slight, but I hear it.

Is there a thread that shows these?
Someone originally posted the idea here

https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/my-tonneau-cover-lock.28155/#post-858126

I've gone a step further of trying to make it a little more aesthetically aligned by using black latches bolts, drilling rivets into the bed of the truck so the latches are a little more secure and painting the hooks red.

I'm busy layering the hooks with enamel so they are a little more durable so I'll post the final look when its done.

I installed a set of Rough Country Molle panels in the bed. A couple of thoughts.

1 I've always been leery of RC products in the past, these look pretty nice, I like that the front panel follows the contour of t he bed sides, I like that the side panels are side specific but wish the passenger side were longer. T here is about 10" that COULD be added to that side since they're side specific.
2 These are steel rather than Aluminum
3. These are way cheaper than others. Likely being steel vice alum
4 Of the 6 rivnuts that need to be installed I managed to hit ribs or other obstructions where I drilled 4 of the fn holes, ruining 2 of the rivnuts, nobody here in Mayberry carries them...
5. My gator tonneau cover rear clamps won't snap closed fully due to the panels now, I haven't solved that issue yet
6. The front center brackets are totally the wrong shape unless I force a big bow in the panel. I'll make new flat ones.

A couple pics bare, I haven't started loading them as I still need to remove them to finish the rivnuts. I'm debating shortening my bed divider board to use with the panels, use a telescoping bed bar or not worry about it.

I don’t remember having as many issues but I did have the same problem with my gator soft trifold tonneau. Here’s what I did.

Not sure of you are being funny or serious but it appears to be a volunteer house. Far as I'm concerned he's giving back to the community and staying active near the house instead of sitting on his ass.
Lol yeah it was def sarcasm thats some ball busting that happens at my firehouse when u work on your shit…im sure he gets it

I Installed rear Mopar splash guards a week ago and it was time to add the front ones. Easy install and I think it came out great.

These do look great. I think Ive asked before but the rears are the ones that are specific to the max tow fenders right? Ive been so dang apprehensive since the complete set is $160ish

Thanks RB, I was thinking something along the same line or just trading the cam over latch for big wing nuts like the front. I'll do some ranchengineering on it today. Tomorrow and figure it out
