May 8, 2021 – Rubicon Gladiator Build Day
So one of our club members who is currently deployed and serving our country bought a brand new Rubicon Gladiator before he left. Now, we have a box trailer full of parts and accessories that he’s purchased and had shipped while he’s gone. As a thanks for his service, we’re going to get together and put all this stuff on his Jeep before he comes home! So join us if you can, many hands make light work!
Build is done, check out the video!
