Installed the Rancho leveling kit on the JT today. I gained exactly 2.25 inches in the front. Sport S with max tow.

So I didn't realize until after I bought them that supposedly the Mopar rear grab handles will not work with the soft top on the JL Wrangler nor the JT Gladiator. Well, I said 'Fuck it. Let's try.' So with one T40 socket and a T25 socket, I loosened the rearmost bracket holding the top support to the roll bar and installed these things underneath. Seems to work just fine. If I have any wind noise or water leaks, I'll report back. But install seemed to work just fine.

So after installing the mopar rear grab handles on the Gladiator with the soft top, I've had no evident issues. Been in 3 rain storms with no leaks and I haven't noticed any wind noise.

First time running the Gladiator topless with the tube doors. Loved it. This will likely become a regular thing.
