The door pull on my driver door broke, so I ordered these,

I don't like the logo on the pad, but I couldn't find a lot of choices, other than a new factory pull strap. I like having a arm rest when I'm cruising on the freeway.

I like it! Where did you get the arm rest?

Hey! Now you and @hosejockey61 can compare horror stories!

Temptation has not got the best of me!!!!

Y’all have fun with Gladiators! They are better than Bronco’s, but I am not up for shenanigans!

 

[Thunderhead]

Your such a tease Jim !

 

[JMT]

Your such a tease Jim !

At least he’s predictable.

I remember a time on the forum when being a tease was necessary to it being fun. The info level was low but thought to be high. I enjoyed those shenanigans. I’m also glad some knowledgeable folk have pitched in and shared. It’s important.

I am glad you are happy Jim, and sad to see “Bob” go, but at least the Gladiator is “white” and now that is not a racist comment, but if you want to take it that way I’m up for a good laugh. LOL

Someone is very happy with your rig.

I hope it’s his wife’s new ride.
He wouldn’t get rid of Bob …

TJ is not going anywhere but in my driveway. The tuna boat is an experiment for my retirement days. It'll likely be pulling a small camp trailer in the not so distant future.
Just a small number of mods planned. The basics, winch, steel winch mount bumper, on board air, ham radio, some cargo mods in the bed, and maybe 33's, 35's?
I'm all set up to flat tow the TJ as well if I get the urge to do some real wheeling.

Phew... You had me scared there! Your plans for the Gladiator sound fun.

ham radio, some cargo mods in the bed,

Imagine the antenna you could mount in the bed of that open air minivan!

I know, right? A giant 12' whip in the center of the bed. One heck of a ground plane there! Lol!
Think I'll nick name it "The Beast!"

Not gonna lie I've had some moments picturing myself in a JT when I'm cramming a weeks worth of camping and wheeling gear into my LJ. But then I think about how unenthusiastic I am about replacing my upstream O2 sensors and how doing pretty much anything on a newer rig would be less enjoyable than that.

Hope you enjoy it and more importantly that it treats you right!
