My Hydro Blue Jeep Gladiator JT Build Thread

[ddays v2]

How much air are you running in your tires? If it's more than 30, that's a big part of your problem. I do 80-85 all the time and in the wind and feel like my JL is very stable.

What do you run in your JT? And what did you run when you had stock tires?

The factory tires were shipped out with 45psi which is nuts. Rode like a damn dump truck. When I installed my 35" Ridge Graps I ended up running 25 psi in them. I started out at 34 and worked my way down to see what handled the best at
highway speeds. I'm fine when it's not windy. But this time of year when the winds are kicking up it does push me around quite a bit.

Oddly enough, I chalked them and I'm still crown high even at that low of a pressure. Any lower and the damn tires howl around every corner so thats where I stopped.

I'm at 33 psi on the JT. Factory had them at 39.

Got a new ARB 63 qt fridge today. Fits perfect under the tonneau cover. And can't beat the classic blue color.

Final product for the bed board. I left it slightly short so I could put 1/4" pieces of rubber against the edges to keep it tight and free from rattling.

So when are you getting the sawzall out and taking a foot out of the bed? That JT that Eddie posted from Cooper’s booth looks amazing.

It really does look good. Unfortunately we bought this truck for a more practical purpose of having a truck, lol.

So a 48” bed isn’t practical? It will hold a 40” tire
