The 2020 Jeep Gladiator is one of the most capable midsize pickup trucks on the market. It combines pickup truck utility with proven Jeep Parts offroad prowess and can be tailored to suit virtually any application. Add a durable form-fitting floor mat or bed liner to optimize your pickup’s ability to contain spills and debris. Also consider a hard folding tonneau cover like this for safe and secure storage.

Nerf Bars

Nerf bars, sometimes called step bars or side steps, are tubular accessories that run along the sides of your truck to give you a place to put your feet when entering and exiting your vehicle. This is especially important on lifted trucks and tall SUVs where stepping in and out of your ride can be challenging.

You can choose a nerf bar with a textured surface or one that features rubberized pads for added safety and traction. The type of material and style you choose will come down to what looks best with your truck and what you’ll be using the nerf bars for.

Whether you’re a family man who needs to get kids and parents into the back of your pickup or you’re a weekend warrior who frequently hauls gear to and from the bed, having a set of nerf bars is a great way to prevent injury and embarrassment. These tubular accessories are designed to fit your specific truck and mount to the frame with brackets that run under the rocker. Nerf bars can be run cab-length or wheel to wheel, depending on your preference.

The APS iBoard, Ionic, and Tyger Auto nerf bars are some of the most popular brands on the market and offer a range of styles, materials, and finishes. Look for a model that matches the make and year of your truck to ensure a seamless fit. Also, keep in mind that some nerf bar models are known to reduce ground clearance by sticking out farther and lower than your doors, so be sure to factor this into your decision. Nerf bars are often sold in kits that include all the necessary mounting hardware for a quick and easy installation.

Rock Sliders

Rock sliders are a great visual upgrade for your Jeep, offering a more rugged appearance than side steps. They also help to protect the vulnerable rocker panel areas of your vehicle from rocks and other obstacles that you may encounter on your offroad adventures. Rock sliders are typically constructed from heavy gauge steel and have the ability to deflect or slide off of extremely hard obstacles. They are usually mounted to the frame with either tabs that attach to the body mounts or welded directly to the frame, which provides the strongest results but can be a bit more difficult to adjust once they are installed.

There are many different styles of rock sliders available. The most common are made from DOM tubing, which is commonly advertised as “SAE 1020” or “HREW.” These two designations refer to the type of welding process used, and both offer a stronger and more resistant material to gouges and dents than aluminum. You will want to ensure that your rocker guards are a minimum of 3/16″ thick – any thinner and they will not stand up to the abuse that a 4×4 goes through.

Another option is to have your rocker guards built from aluminum slugs that fit inside the main tube. This saves weight while adding tremendous strength as the entire tube is now a solid piece of metal and not hollow. Some extreme offroaders who spend all their time slamming their 5000lb vehicle on boulders and dropping it off of ledges in Moab opt for this method to keep their beefy DOM rock sliders from bending. A set of these will run you a little more than your basic tubing option, but are well worth the investment for those who spend most of their time offroading.

Rear-View Mirrors

Your rear view mirror is a key safety feature, especially in a larger vehicle like your Gladiator. It’s designed to minimise areas of your car that cannot be observed in other side mirrors, called blind spots. Most mirrors are curved to offer a wider observational angle each side, while some have an additional convex section on the inside.

Most rear-view mirrors have an anti-glare function to reduce the brightness of headlights reflecting off them at night. This can be adjusted manually or automatically, depending on the model of mirror you have. The anti-glare feature is particularly helpful when driving in the dark or on foggy days.

Some models of rear-view mirrors also include auto-dimming capabilities to make it easier to see other drivers’ headlights. The technology works by using electrochromic materials that change in response to an electrical current. This makes it easier to see road signs, pedestrians, and other vehicles during daylight hours and harder at night.

Another optional upgrade for your vehicle is a secondary rear-view mirror that allows you to monitor the back seat. It attaches to your main rear-view mirror and is independently adjustable to give you a more personalised view of the back seat. This can be useful if you have young children in the back seat who need to be kept safe from the front seat passengers.

Rear view camera mirrors are available as an upgrade for many models of vehicles. They use a low-latency camera to display an image of your vehicle’s rear, which can be seen in the infotainment system screen or on a dedicated dashboard display. The cameras can be upgraded to a higher-definition model for better viewing and more clarity. Most of these systems have washer jets to keep the camera lens clean from sprays of grit, like gravel or road salt, which may otherwise obscure the view.

Overhead Hoist

Overhead hoists are a type of lifting device that lift or lower loads by means of a drum or lift-wheel around which chain or rope wraps. They may be manually operated, electrically driven or powered by compressed air or hydraulics. They are typically suspended from one or more trolleys that travel along the lower flange of a monorail crane beam, though they can also be hook-mounted, clevis-mounted, or lug-mounted. Hoists are governed by several governing bodies, including the Material Handling Industry of America and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

An overhead hoist can be a great addition to your Jeep Gladiator, allowing you to haul the hardtop or store it away without needing any extra help. This hoist attaches to the roof joists in your garage or carport, and it uses pulleys to reduce the amount of force needed for top removal. It also has a self-locking system that will prevent the top from dropping down on your head.

Another option is to add an overhead storage compartment to your truck bed. This accessory is designed to tuck into the space between the tailgate and wheel well, maximizing your cargo capacity without sacrificing any room for tools or equipment. The storage compartment has locking storage and can be accessed from either side of the truck. It is also durable and weatherproof, making it a perfect addition to your new Jeep.

Floor Mats

Floor mats can add a custom look to your vehicle and protect your carpet. They are available in a variety of colors and materials, and are easy to clean. They can also help to reduce static buildup. Some mats have raised surfaces or “fingers” to scrape dirt, mud and other debris off shoes. The material used to make the mats can be smooth for hard floors or cleated for added traction on carpeted surfaces.

Choosing the right mats for your vehicle depends on how you use it. For example, if you live in a snowy area, it’s important to select mats with deep grooves that will trap ice, salt, snow and other debris. On the other hand, if you’re just using your vehicle to commute to work and back, a simpler set of mats will be sufficient.

The cost of floor mats varies depending on the brand, fit type and material. Budget-friendly brands like Amazon Basics and Motor Trend are available for under $20. Premium options like WeatherTech or 3d Maxpider are more expensive.

Commercial floor mats are used in restaurants, retail stores and other facilities to prevent slip and fall accidents. They are also placed outside entrances to keep abrasive soils and liquids from being tracked inside the facility.

In addition to protecting the flooring in your facility, floor mats can help reduce employee fatigue. They are placed in areas where employees have to stand for long periods of time and can provide extra support by distributing weight evenly over feet and legs. They can also trap dust, crumbs and other debris to keep the area clean. They can also be used to contain oil and grease spills, which helps to prevent workplace injuries.
