While images of converting your Wrangler into a pickup might be the first thing that comes to mind thanks to the 2020 Jeep Gladiator truck, it’s not that type of conversion. Instead, this bolt-on kit transforms the front end of your JK with styling derived from the 1960's era classic Jeep Gladiator pickup. It does this by replacing your original hood, grille, and fenders with an all-new set of fiberglass components.
To check out the transformation in person, we took a drive to Chris Durham Motorsports in Pickens, South Carolina. There, we watched as Chris Durham transformed a Hemi-powered JK with one of his most popular front end conversions getting all the tips and tricks for how to add this Jeep Wrangler front end conversion without issue. And yes, for you 2020 Jeep Gladiator and JL owners, there will be a Gladiator conversion kit released very soon. Find the bolt-on front end conversion kit at cdmracing.com/.

That's what the new gladiator SHOULD look like 👍
this needs a super like button. best cosmetic mod for jeep JK
That’s the coolest JK mod I’ve ever seen
With the 4 door JK it looks like a modern Wagoneer imo and I dig it
If Jeep made em like this from the factory I'd be at the dealer tomorrow.
Oh heck yes . Remember as kid My cousin dad had one in Green . One my favorite Jeeps . I had J-10 V8 - 360 power lifted . Definitely stands out great design product . Want be different from every Jeep wrangler I've seen.
OUTSTANDING! Looks like the old Wagoneers I back halved years ago.
When I was a kid my father had the old 1967 jeep truck that was sitting on our property and he gave it to me and I remember every time we went to the property I would get in it and play around waiting until I was old enough to drive just dreaming about it ( I was only8 years old and already loving the classics although that was in the early 80s so so just barely a classic at that time lol) but of course by the time I was old enough to drive the truck was long gone smh. To this day I give my father crap about it ugh, I really wanted that old truck and I didn't know why back then other than I thought it was cool looking.
That looks amazing ! Excellent job.
I maintain that the gladiator is an aesthetic masterpiece as far as offroad vehicles go, but the nukizer concept is gorgeous.
My Jeep comanche would look great with this front end. I'll make it look like a mini gladiator
Interesting look. I don’t think I’m a huge fan, compared to the original setup, but looks cool
I dig the kit but you need to trim up those fender flares they look stupid over hanging the front clip like that. I do love the new front end though very unique.
That’s really nice I wish I could do that to mines!!!!
Thanks in a million. Great content. Awesome imagination. Grade: A++💥

Love it! 😊
How much will it cost? I look forward to modding my JL with this restomod.
Looks like a Wrangler from an altternatte universe, where Jeep decided that this is the front end design they will stick with
Look like Viper.👍👍👍
Looks great, but sounds like the tolerances of the kit aren’t up to snuff if you’re advised to have a body shop finish it up. It wouldn’t be because stock Jeeps vary from one to the next.

if you want body lines to match up even with stock parts you should have a body shop do it. I've been doing body work for years and even with stock fenders, hoods ect, some will or may require shimming to get them to line up perfectly the way they should. nothing out of the ordinary.
You should make the top of windsheild cab sunviser like the real gladiator !
Will there be a kit for the new JT Or JL.. this is awesome..

He is working on a TJ to CJ front end conversion, but not a Gladiator one. You would need to reach out to Chris Durham Motorsports directly to find out if a Gladiator conversion would be feasible on the TJ.
Would this work for a JK with the 3.6?

Dovresti contattare direttamente Chris Durham Motorsports per questo. Crediamo che in effetti offra spedizioni internazionali.
Factory flares looked better on it.
