My Hydro Blue Jeep Gladiator JT Build Thread

Hoping to wire up an inverter and the fridge this weekend.

I need to do this on my JK. What all have you run off of that inverter? I remember you saying you use a coffee pot. How about any corded tools or battery chargers?

Appears to be the exact same inverter as the other Jeep but company name has changed and I couldn't find a blue one. I've run a small coffee pot, power tools, and charged electronics with it. Same plan for the JT.

Got the inverter wired today.

I just ziptied the circuit breaker to the battery cover. Beats drilling new holes or finding out where to put it under this hood with no fucking room anywhere.

Ran wires above the frame and found a drain plug under the carpet under the back seat. I could have cut the carpet cleaner but I didn't.

ARB fridge wired up as well and found a perfect spot for the receptacle in in the bed.

Nice install. I don't understand the battery covers

Nice install. I don't understand the battery covers

Thanks. Me too. I've seen battery blankets for cooler weather but I think this OEM thing is just for looks.

Nice install man!

Just an update. Went on a 1000 mile road trip with snow and rain the entire time and everything in the bed stayed dry. I found a couple of quarter-hour puddles in a couple spots near the bed edges but nothing concerning at all. Pretty happy with this tonneau cover even though it isn't designed to be waterproof.
