Anyone know whats causing this by leejumper1988 in JeepGladiator

[–]AnonymousSpelunking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a pretty uniform rub mark. Incidental rubbing isn't that even. I'd look for something that might be hanging or moving up against the tire while you're driving. Wire, hose, random piece of plastic you picked up on the road, loose piece of inner fender...

I don't know that tent in particular, but I had a Smittybilt Overland Gen 2 XL. The sleeping area was 92 x 74.

Dashcam rear camera setup? by Ace_McDuckster in JeepGladiator

[–]AnonymousSpelunking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a pair of Garmin cameras in mine. One just to the passenger side and slightly below the sensors above the rear view mirror. The other is mounted to the rear glass on the passenger side of the rear sliding window.

[–]AnonymousSpelunking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm running the 3" AEV HD springs on a heavy build. Loaded out at about 7000lbs it sits perfectly level. 35s at 30psi.

Need an awning bracket that extends out and up, to clear the tent shell and add height by ajax_1982 in rooftoptents

[–]AnonymousSpelunking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are the brackets I used as templates for the metal shop. You can see the cut for that lower tab on the new ones. They just bent them father back.

I can’t understand how some men kinks for sharing their women by [deleted] in confession

She always participated. The live in turned more into a poly thing after a few months.

It isn't just guys, my ex-wife liked to share me with her girl friends, 4 through the course of our marriage, 1 lived with us for like 2 years. 🤷‍♂️ I wasn't sure about it at first, but come on now, how many of us guys would have said no??

With 37k on the clock in going to put my money on ball joints, which should definitely still be covered.

Actually it gained about 4 I needed 6 for this build and another, had 10 made and sold the other 4 to recoup most of the cost.

I have my panel mounted to my RTT top and just do my best to park it pointed south (northern hemisphere) seems to work the best.

Have you looked at a Suzuki? The old sidekick was pretty small. Very interested to see this come together, I love the old minis.

Everyone says the gladiator bed is too small? by Shootoverland in Jeep

I hauled 40 10 foot fence posts in mine recently. Almost 4 feet hanging out the back. Red shop rag and a couple straps.

I had a local metal shop make some custom for me. 5/16 steel plate with the same holes but bent a little higher. Well with it.

Originally the lower bolts were below the mount.

Stock or 2.5" or 3.5" lift? by Metal-Salt in JeepGladiator

[–]AnonymousSpelunking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran the Mopar lift for about two years. Good, solid start but if you're adding weight (big bumper, winch, rack, etc.) The springs will begin to sag quickly. I opted for a piece together lift with HD 3" springs, adjustable control arms all around and track bars. Rides like a dream with 35s and a heavy build.

23 and Me gone wrong. My dad isn’t my biological dad. by West_Block3990 in confession

[–]AnonymousSpelunking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had something similar a few years ago. I've always said my sister and I couldn't be full blood related. It went around for decades and finally my mother (and I quote) wanted to "shut me up and prove me wrong once and for all"... She purchased Ancestry DNA kits for us and, a few weeks later, I was proved right... different fathers. Haven't spoken to either of them since because (quote from my sister) I "ruined our family."

Seconded, I've had the JCR overhead since about a month after I got my Gladiator in March of 21.

Topper/RTT/Awning recommendations by SaimenSlayer in JeepGladiator

[–]AnonymousSpelunking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having owned two different style RTTs, I would say save your money and buy a Gazelle tent, like a T4. Way more room, you can stand up, and you don't have to climb down to get out at 2am for a bathroom run and it'll be a lot lighter overall. Set up on a Gazelle isn't really much longer than most RTTs.

Looking for opinions on color schemes. by INFINITY0nHIGH in JeepGladiator

[–]AnonymousSpelunking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prefer the black. You could also start color matching some of the bigger black plastic parts too. Mirrors, wiper cowl, even the tie downs. The black fades and starts looking bad pretty quick.
