Handle Installation Instructions

Unboxing

The magnetic handles may cause the tool to adhere to another handle if not in view upon opening your package.

Each set includes an instruction card, T25 tool, 4 stainless washers and 2 magnetic handles.

Installing

Start by locating the factory mounting points, which will be 2 single screws centered between each door. 2021-2023 Gladiators will only be able to use our handles on the front doors and 2024+ Gladiators will have both front and rear lower mounting points. As is the case with any modification, installing this product may mark or indent the plastic trim under the brackets.

For the proper orientation and magnetic function, the tag should be facing the outside of the vehicle and be on the left side.

Start by removing the 2 screws with the included T25 torx tool.

Once you have the proper orientation with the tag facing the outside of the vehicle and on the left side, stick the handle to the sport bar to help hold it in place.

The factory screws typically either come with an M6 washer or an integrated flat head the size of an M6 washer. If your vehicle does not have this, then use the included stainless M6 washers.

Start the screws by hand to make sure you have proper alignment and avoid cross-threading the factory mounting points.

Tighten down most of the way while ensuring the metal brackets stay straight and well positioned using the included tool.

To finish the installation, use the shorter side of the tool to fully tighten. Should you wish to use your own T25 tool, it is not recommended to use power tools as it can strip the factory threads.
