Did the new one bolt right in or was the frame tweaked to match the crossmember. I had mine out once and almost didn't get it back in. I was afraid a new one would be even harder to get in place.

When I took the taco out and put a Rock Hard crossmember in, a couple of line up bars and a little nudge from the bfh and it went right in.
My old one was pushed up so far the transfer case dented the top of the tunnel.
The lower edge of the frame side mounts needed to be straightened first, as they were rolled over under the stock one. They bent back pretty easy though.

OK, So it's been three -four weeks
Not done this week. It has been awhile. My IT skills are pretty much non-existent. Got the EVO adjustable suspension installed at the 3 inch level coupled with Nitto Ridge Grapplers 37's on KMC XD 231 beadlocks. The Gladiator is looking more like a real truck now. I kind of miss the stock rims with the Jeep Easter egg. But I'm getting over it.

As far as the long arm kit on your gladiator, did you just buy a jl kit and it's the same? I can't find the jt long arm kit on EVO's website. What lift height are you running on your gladiator?

I have had this same nipple break on my Jeep. Good ol jb weld has done the trick. Hopefully no more CEL for snorkels

Indeed! Yes! But I still have to get 500 miles on the odometer and take it back to Evo for re-torqueing before I attempt to eat your dust on a trail. Looking forward to getting dusty though.

Thanks. It will be more overlander than rock crawler but it will suit my changing lifestyle (AKA getting older and slowing down). :blush:

Yeah. This lock-down BS is seriously cutting into my social life. It will be good to gather in groups and to see you and Lisa smiling without a mask.
