Gladiator FAQ
Common questions
Is PPF worth it on a Gladiator?
If you take it off-road or drive gravel roads, yes. The rockers, front clip, and fender flares catch the worst of it on trails. Film on those zones protects against pinstriping, rock chips, and brush damage. For trail rigs we usually recommend at least rocker and front-end coverage.
What lift kit is best for a Gladiator?
Metalcloak and Teraflex are the two we install most on Gladiators. A 2.5-inch lift is the sweet spot for most builds: enough clearance for 35-inch tires without major drivetrain changes. We match the suspension to your tire size and trail use.
What tires fit with a lift kit?
A 2.5-inch lift opens room for 35-inch tires on most Gladiators. A 3.5-inch lift gets you into 37s. We confirm fitment for your specific year, axle, and fender clearance before ordering.
Should I ceramic coat my Gladiator?
A ceramic coating makes the truck far easier to wash after a trail day and protects against UV fade and mag chloride. We use Owner's Pride coatings in 5-year, 7-year, and 9-year self-healing tiers. It is especially worthwhile on any Gladiator that spends time off-road.
Is windshield protection film worth it?
If you drive mountain highways or gravel roads regularly, yes. Colorado roads throw enough rock chips that a windshield film pays for itself in avoided replacements. It absorbs impacts that would otherwise crack the glass.
What Gladiator accessories should I install first?
Protection first, then the build. Start with PPF on the front clip and rockers, ceramic coating on the body, and tint on the glass. Then add the lift, racks, and armor. That way the protection goes on clean paint before the first scratch lands.
