Nice! I have a Gladiator in Punk’n metallic and I LOVE it! My dream Jeep!!! I am so thrilled they brought back a truck, so you get all the fun of the Jeep and the utility of a truck, and it’s not too big. I have the step up rails, roll-up tonneau, noise/heat panels, sun shade, iPad for nav, and was thinking lights and a front brush guard, but now I need the tubular doors. I agree that the idea of riding with nothing there is unnerving. I love taking the freedom tops off but admit the rear top is too much work. Also, with the freedom tops off and the sun shade on, I still feel like I have a little security in addition to the sun and wind protection, whereas by removing the rear top, you are wide open and have to be able to keep an eye on the truck if you didn’t completely empty out the cab. Great video guys, and another commenter is right, your videos are very conversational, good on detail without getting tedious, and very engaging. Good stuff! (And the girls are adorable!) I am enjoying your channel. Thanks!!!
I found you a while back in my lifelong dream of owning a Jeep. Vicariously living through your page. FINALLY I bought one. Not the Rubicon but I’m very pleased with my 2021 Gladiator Willys. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR PAGE!
Great vid, nice to see consideration for the family and what the wife thinks. Such a versatile vehicle, most probably one of the few vehicles that stay in the family for a very long time.
Refreshing to see someone drop the windshield. I’ve done it a few times on my JL Rubicon. Drove around town running errands. Haven’t scene anyone else do it in the wild.
Vespering the main reason you won’t see most people doing it in newer Jeep’s is because it voids the warranty on the seals, and it’s really hard for some people to get the windshield seal properly
I've been looking at a buying a Rubicon myself. I always do a lot of research before buying a new vehicle. I've watched about 4 of your videos on your Rubicon. I gotta tell you...You do a great job with your channel. Great commentary, Great personality and expressions. Incorporating your wife (Cassie, hope I spelled it correctly) is brilliant. Even showing your kids, is fantastic. I laughed so hard when in one of your videos you said "gotta put the girls down for a nap"...and one of them got sassy and yelled "No"! Seriously laughed out loud. You have a cool channel, an Awesome wife, and two beautiful girls. You are a blessed man. Your channel is tempting me big time, to get my Rubicon. Keep up the good work. Well done!
I have never been a Jeep guy but I really like the Gladiator. I am seriously considering buying one. I wish it had a slightly longer bed. I realize it has a fairly long wheel base but my last truck had an 8' bed and the modern 6' (5 1/2') seem small so this is even smaller. It would be great if Jeep offered a choice of more than one engine. It looks really great with the doors and top removed but the setup for the windshield seemed like problems/damage waiting to happen. It definitely is a nice vehicle. You folks did a great job with this video. Thanks for taking the time to show all the steps involved for everything and keeping an honest time clock when removing and adding doors, top, etc.. Good looking truck, great looking family and wonderful video. Thank you and God bless. 👍🏼
To unplug the wire harness from the front doors you need to press a tab in at the bottom of the plug then the white part will roll up easy. Thanks for the link on the tube doors. Have a JL that's a twin to your gladiator and was looking for something like these tube doors that don't break the bank!
Ok, just watched your video and I agree its BadAss. I have a Trailhawk and am currently looking at either a Wrangler or a Gladiator. You just added points toward the Gladiator!!
One thing I like about the JL and JT doors is the underside of the armrest has a pocket that is a handle to help you hold the door. At 6:22 in your video instead of having your left hand lifting up the on the top of the door, try putting your arm into the window and grab it under the armrest. I find it much easier to handle the doors doing it this way.
Love it completely. The Sunshade is key too and I love mine. Windshield down is nice if all you are doing is too and from the beach or generally slow trips here and there.
Got a Jeep gladiator rubicon last fall. Love it so far. (Except gas mileage, but knew that beforehand) Used to have Rams and F150s. Loved those too but didn't need that big of a truck any longer.
This looks so sick. My girlfriend has a wrangler and I really want one too but I feel like having two is kinda weird so I’m looking at the gladiator and I love it! All I know is I’m 100% getting one of them! Awesome video man ❤️
Truck U showed a kit from Baxter Performance for the Gladiator that prevents the engine oil drain back issue. 30 minutes after shut off all the engine oil drains back to the crankcase, even the filter is bone dry. Every start up is a dry start.
I bought a flexible drill bit extension so I could use a drill to take the doors off. A lot faster and safer than using that ratchet wrench. I always got paranoid I would scratch the paint.
Went to the dealership close by my home and saw the gladiator and felt right away that I had to own one.! Was a great decision and now looking for different addons and mods for it!
Look awesome! I took my gladiator doors and top off when I first bought it two months ago, everybody and their brother had to come over and check it out and ask questions. I have yet to put the hard top back on but after seeing this video I’m taking the doors off today and going cruising around town.
Looks really good with the doors and tops off and the tubular doors. Having the tops off with the factory doors on did not work for me. It's best to keep it all on or take it all off.
the front door connectors you have to slide the red piece up and then under the white piece in the middle there is a black tab you push down and it slides the white piece right of
I love my soft top JT. Fold the top back in a few seconds, and slide the rear window out, and the soft top and frame is completely removable with only 4 bolts.
It's hard to be a kid no toys are us 🦒 and put the kids down is code for were going mall crawling and get adult beverages where people can see our latest payment er um jeep 💸
On my JL I tuck the wire harnesses into the mesh pockets and loosely replace the doorstop bolts back into place so there isn’t a hole. I have a red alien sunshade with the sunrider on my jlur and although awkward at first, it’s become very simple to unlatch, flip back and close the sunrider with the shade 👌🏼
I love that the JL has a folding windshield. I also love the lighter doors and the door stops that hold the doors in place while open. Key features that are missing on my JK.
Well if you haven’t figured this out yet or anyone else. On my 2020 Jeep gladiator sport s when removing the front doors. The part where you said the white clip was super hard for the door electrical connector, it’s actually not. Took me about 5 minutes to figure it out but you pull the red “safety” tab up and just put on the tab below the white connector like when you unplug a headlight bulb, you press the little locking tab. When you do press the tab instead of trying to pry the white clip/tab clip, it will actually pop the white tab for you
This is nice a truck you can take off the top its nice the tube doors i see have 4 bolt holes in the fount doors to mount back the side mirrors i wonder how the new Jeep half doors will look on it
Great video and I like the look with the doors too. It looked waaaaaaaaaaaay better with the top off than it did with just the freedom panels off. Sweet look!
Great vid! We need to rock tube doors here in BC if we want to go door-less! We have been looking for an affordable set for our Gladiator! Hoping to go naked this summer! Thanks for all the tips for removing the doors and roof!
Yesssss, more JT! Since one of the main reasons for buying the Jeep is to take the top and doors off (besides off road capability), it would suck not to take them off. Shoulda bought a Ranger and saved the dough in that case. Thanks for breaking a nail to bring us this content! 👗👜
Hello, im getting a 2020 gladiator soon and your channel has been helping me to get to know this car before i even own it. Im from maryland and hopefully i get yo mee you one day!
I had removed the top and doors from my 1976 CJ7 and my son and i got caught in a heavy texas down pour. We had the heater on full blast and the wipers going fast. We just laughed and enjoyed the ridiculousness of the situation.
I am a new Jeep Gladiator owner but do they make a Gladiator with a hard top? Not the 3 panel w the freedom top? I like an electric sunroof also but thought it would be a sacrifice for owning a Jeep. All tips hints and hacks are welcome. LET THE MODS BEGIN. lol.
and impact and universal joint extensions would certain make it faster, defidently start the bolts by hand and also don't tighten them too too much but would be faster.
I'm sure someone else probably chimed in, but those white clips on the front door wiring harness, there's a black tab in the middle that you push down and then pull up on the white bar.
Sending this video link to my wife in hopes to convince her that this is really what she wants and not a mid size SUV! And that stripping the Jeep is quality family bonding time! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
If you ever want to get the rear top off and you don’t have 4 hands open the back little window you can grab it and lift it that way. Also bummed I can’t get a sunshade because I’m too tall and it sits lower than the freedom tops.
Love it. Saving my pennies for a nicely used gladiator in the next couple of years when the price goes down. Question ( anyone can reply) what kind of carport is that? Moved into my house last year, and there is a slab of concrete at the end of my driveway that used to have a garage. Now I'm looking for some type of shelter that can handle north east weather ( snow blizzards in the winter, heat in the summer). I have a charger that I want to better cover. I'm still planning on putting a cover on it when I dont use it, but some shelter that wont weigh down on it, would be great. Thanks
looks good , what a nice family, i have to say i miss the jk stuff, being a jk owner thats the reason i started following but the gladiator is really nice, good video
You are now blessed with both worlds. The safety of being behind a windshield or not. Your build has only got better looking. Your color scheme holds it all together. Great job! OMB

what is the roof you have on the front half ?
Personal opinion nothing looks cooler than good parents with their kids!!! Love this channel
huge!
0:35 The look on your little girl's face is priceless, and a perfect example of why we all love these crazy Jeeps!
Wholesome, honest, and entertaining. Everything I look for in jeep TH-cam channels. 👍🏽👍🏽

Gladiator is my dream car, I am currently 13 and at 14 I'm going to start saving for it.
@Devin, 40 and I am I'm still saving! LOL
😀😀
You should be able to get one in about 5 years for 15k with 160k miles on it.
Did you buy it
I'm 29 and its also my dream car, hope you get it!
I found you a while back in my lifelong dream of owning a Jeep. Vicariously living through your page. FINALLY I bought one. Not the Rubicon but I’m very pleased with my 2021 Gladiator Willys. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR PAGE!
Just plain awesome!!!
Your girls are loving it...
Ordering the doors now...
Great vid, nice to see consideration for the family and what the wife thinks. Such a versatile vehicle, most probably one of the few vehicles that stay in the family for a very long time.
I am not gonna lie...your enthusiasm is turning me into a fan! I think I am digging the Gladiator! Thanks for the info.

There's not a single thing I don't like. I'm envious of you guys and your Gladiator!
Nothing funnier than expecting kids to have this grand reaction, and they end up not caring at all lol
I have never been a Jeep guy but I really like the Gladiator. I am seriously considering buying one. I wish it had a slightly longer bed.

I like the way you do videos. It's a conversation the way you'd tell me about this if it was just us two. I enjoy that style of delivery.
Your videos are the best. Thank you! Your mods totally help me see the possibilities. As a first time jeeper I really appreciate it.
It looks awesome enjoy it. Crazy thumps up 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Just ordered a build for a 2022 Gladiator diesel , replacing my 2002 JK and my 2018 monster Chevrolet Silverado diesel. Can’t wait!
Great look, I’ve owned many jeeps, just make a hanging place in garage for your doors. Leave the doors off and top on. A lot of fun.
Good job on the mesh for the doors!! Looks really good!
Ok, just watched your video and I agree its BadAss. I have a Trailhawk and am currently looking at either a Wrangler or a Gladiator. You just added points toward the Gladiator!!

Looks like you could use a little Milwaukee M12 drill or impact to really speed things up!
I use the 12v Milwaukee ratchet
Just use hammer..
Love it completely. The Sunshade is key too and I love mine. Windshield down is nice if all you are doing is too and from the beach or generally slow trips here and there.
The jeep is cool but you also have a great family there sir. Love to see it
One of my favorite truck i think it’s worth because the shape of it would never goes out of style!
Jeep Glad. looks so awesome,with/without clothes .....you have a great family dude, congrats!!
Wow! I gotta get me one of those. Love the fun factor of the Gladiators!
Got a Jeep gladiator rubicon last fall. Love it so far. (Except gas mileage, but knew that beforehand) Used to have Rams and F150s. Loved those too but didn't need that big of a truck any longer.
I keep a magnetic bumper sticker to protect the door paint when taking the hinge nuts off.
great idea!
A great idea, when I had my jk I just left them out as he said in the video. It will never be a problem unless you roll the Jeep with the door open.
Won’t work on the new ones, aluminum door skins.
Why it's a truck it's meant to be used
This looks so sick. My girlfriend has a wrangler and I really want one too but I feel like having two is kinda weird so I’m looking at the gladiator and I love it! All I know is I’m 100% getting one of them! Awesome video man ❤️

I bought my 2021 black gladiator sport in March. I love it
I think it looks amazing, total worth the time cuz you get to transform your vehicle. Totally badass!!!! Definitely a must have!
Look awesome! I took my gladiator doors and top off when I first bought it two months ago, everybody and their brother had to come over and check it out and ask questions.

I saw one in Jamaica like this. It was black and yellow seats. Oh my God, it looked beautiful.
Gladiator is a badass Jeep it’s look real nice in both ways driving in the summertime without doors and rooftop very nice .
the front door connectors you have to slide the red piece up and then under the white piece in the middle there is a black tab you push down and it slides the white piece right of
Good video. Going to look at a gladiator rubicon this weekend

Wowww the door with your diy mesh thingy looks so cool and the vehicle looks so badass. Thanks for sharing this is a masterpiece 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Tube doors with the mesh will help when kids drop something. Nice idea
Great video and I like the look with the doors too.
It looked waaaaaaaaaaaay better with the top off than it did with just the freedom panels off.
Sweet look!
Looks great with those tube doors. Topless is the way to go.
Great vid! We need to rock tube doors here in BC if we want to go door-less! We have been looking for an affordable set for our Gladiator! Hoping to go naked this summer! Thanks for all the tips for removing the doors and roof!
you guys always have the best jeep vids!!
beautiful video ,,lovely family ,,keep safe and happy man ,,,,,,
You sew like a champ! Doors look great!!
I love it naked with the Tube doors. Not a fan of the front window down. I just found your channel and I’m hooked. Subscribed. 👍🏻
Looks awesome, you’re really selling me on a JT, can’t wait until it hit our shores here in Australia.
Agree but bet we wont be legal driving naked down under
Omg 😮, that is so sick, you make me want a JT even more
Good video. Cant wait to get my Gladiator later this year
Yesssss, more JT! Since one of the main reasons for buying the Jeep is to take the top and doors off (besides off road capability), it would suck not to take them off. Shoulda bought a Ranger and saved the dough in that case. Thanks for breaking a nail to bring us this content! 👗👜
Best Video I've seen yet. I'm definitely purchasing one in a couple of months!!
I can’t wait to do it this weekend..!!!!
Hello, im getting a 2020 gladiator soon and your channel has been helping me to get to know this car before i even own it. Im from maryland and hopefully i get yo mee you one day!
Looking forward to getting my gladiator in the near future! 😀😀
I had removed the top and doors from my 1976 CJ7 and my son and i got caught in a heavy texas down pour. We had the heater on full blast and the wipers going fast. We just laughed and enjoyed the ridiculousness of the situation.
Thank You for your hard work in making this video ✌🏼
Love it! I have the same Flag stickers on my 2014 -- just stripped mine down too and put on some half doors. Cheers!
If you use the inside door armrest it has a hand hold for holding the door when you take them off. Easier then holding the paint side.
Would be nice to see Jeep bring the sky one touch to the gladiator.
I am a new Jeep Gladiator owner but do they make a Gladiator with a hard top? Not the 3 panel w the freedom top? I like an electric sunroof also but thought it would be a sacrifice for owning a Jeep. All tips hints and hacks are welcome. LET THE MODS BEGIN. lol.
and impact and universal joint extensions would certain make it faster, defidently start the bolts by hand and also don't tighten them too too much but would be faster.
Looks so much better without the top and doors. Nice.
I'm sure someone else probably chimed in, but those white clips on the front door wiring harness, there's a black tab in the middle that you push down and then pull up on the white bar.
BestTop also makes a retractable sunshade. Might solve that problem.
Sending this video link to my wife in hopes to convince her that this is really what she wants and not a mid size SUV! And that stripping the Jeep is quality family bonding time! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
When you remove the defroster connector there is another panel below the wire that pops of to put the plug in and hide it out of the way.
4:30 use a credit card or index card to protect the paint
If you ever want to get the rear top off and you don’t have 4 hands open the back little window you can grab it and lift it that way. Also bummed I can’t get a sunshade because I’m too tall and it sits lower than the freedom tops.
Looks awesome with the tube doors. Great video 👍
Looks *way cooler* with the tube doors and top off!
Love it. Saving my pennies for a nicely used gladiator in the next couple of years when the price goes down.

Nice Jeep nice family god parenting. Way to go.
Lot of work. Prefer the Sunrider soft top. Two clips and it’s open. Love the doors off.
yep, i dont foresee going fully topless to often
Man I am in love with this New Jeep
You guys make it look so bad ass nice
Video
We fell in love with it when we first saw it in the dealer lot with everything blown out. Also I highly recommend getting the non-painted top 😀
Love how it looks
Smart thinking with the mesh for the doors!
I've been waiting for someone to take the doors and roof off of the Gladiator. Love the way it looks NAKED!! Also, include more videos with Cassie
Dude I love your videos! Keep doin what ur doing!!
Great content, nice family, great jeep, love it man.
looks good , what a nice family, i have to say i miss the jk stuff, being a jk owner thats the reason i started following but the gladiator is really nice, good video
More Jk stuff coming soon! I just had to make a bunch of JT videos while it was still a hot topic
You are now blessed with both worlds. The safety of being behind a windshield or not. Your build has only got better looking. Your color scheme holds it all together. Great job! OMB
Love the mesh panels you added.
Looks a lot better with the doors and top off.
Briab Briboski everything always looks better naked
@CHEAP JEEPER
I'm gonna have to disagree with you on that. I've seen somethings I cant unsee. 😱😫😢☠
We just leave the back doors on when we take dogs out with us. At first it looks weird, but you get used to it, and the convenience is unparalleled.
Your satellite receiver antenna is also in that box on the windshield..
looks like such a fun truck!
