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

[HannibalSmith]

Rough country nerf steps.
I wish the steps were about 2-4 inches toward the rear. They feel too far forward

I don't need them but my wife does ?

Started by stripping her naked, then I got her mounted with new 35x12.50-17 Kenda Klever RT601.
Really pleased with how smooth and quiet they are.

Nice truck! What stare the steps you’ve got on there?

Very easy work two people. A little harder with one but not impossible

did you have to buy the navigation antenna add on, or does it already have that still with the 5 inch radio. i want to do the same.

I had SiriusXM from the factory, so didn't need the XM antenna (it's $95 if you do). Just plug and play, same plugs as the 5" on the 8.4".

I'm not sure if the 5" without the factory XM option includes a GPS antenna for nav? Worst case it's $95 and running it up on to the soundbar. But, it might already have one.

EDIT: To clarify ha, I read that back and it sounded a bit confusing. I did not need to add a separate Nav antenna.

Datin fabrification canopy cage. I also ordered the 270 degree awning mounts and handles for it. This rack is huge, in hindsight i might of went with a smaller cheaper rack but i wanted the option of getting a softopper if i wanted a full enclosure in the future. I intially wanted the RSI smartcap but having read that some people had quality and fitmint issues and the fact its a lot heavier, i decided on a bedrack instead.

Was looking at this if I went softopper. Would you mind measuring the height difference between the top of the rack and top of the roof? Mind sharing more pic angles? Thanks!!!

Its about 2.5 to 3 inches above the hard top. Im considering ordering the jcr offroad roofrack to match the lines.

If you order this and have other bed rails then the mopar ones, you will have to buy additional hardware. I have the builtright industries bed rail so the nut bar thats included will not work. Do not angle it like some youtubers did, go to homedepot and buy some 3/8 cone nuts. They are not expensive.

I wonder if im the only person that has spent a considerable amount of money on mods and have not touched the tires or suspension? I want to really bad but im waiting until the 36k mile mark if i can because of all the steering issues these were prone to having.

I wish you could fold down the softopper with it on. That and it should come with two more horizontal panels.

I have 2 more but it didnt come with the extra hardware to install. Ed at datin is easy and great to deal with. I'm still waiting for the arb tred pro mounts to ship out from them so I asked him to included extra bolts and nuts. The accessory rails are 49 a piece with the powdercoat.

@SelfmodJT I was in your position on my JK, loaded bumper to bumper with mods but it sat on stock suspension until the day I sold it. Do you.

Lol, it's getting a lift eventually. Not selling, I dont need a better engine or more horsepower. I just need it to go where I want it to and not leave me stranded. Not ever planning on going rock crawling so I dont need anything extreme. I'm more than satisfied to go across some dirt, pebbles and some streams to get to my camping destination.?
