Installing a RSI Smartcap on a 2021 Gladiator

Install video of a RSI Smartcap on a 2021 Jeep Gladiator.

Love 💕 and light to all 💕. Great cargo top for your gladiator. I purchased the 2020 gladiator rubicon and went with a metal bed tool box top that fits flush with the bed rails.

[@daltonriehl7461]

My clamps were very splayed/tweaked like yours and one actually blew out when torqued to 9ft lbs. RSI made new clamps over the last year and now they look nice and uniform so I got them anodized black so they blend in 👌🏼

[@Gregory-uv2pi]

Took something soooo simple and made it difficult. Gotta love it

[@Raja-vg8og]

It looks beautiful and also rugged. Will last forever. Well worth the price.

[@gus473]

👍🏼 Thanks for posting this! Was pretty curious about the assembly of these! Very nice look! 😎✌🏼

[@overlandaf_adventures472]

Love this cap. I just bought a Gladiator and I am trying to figure out what I want. Only thing about this cap is the price. $4900 Canadian 🇨🇦. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️. Hard to swallow that one

[@jenniramsey3908]

I understand, the cost was alot. It is totally worth it. We are very happy we went with RSI.

[@andrezimmermann2458]

Well done 👍🏼 Looks great and very worthy once it is installed

[@jenniramsey3908]

Thanks for watching.

[@J.D.Vision]

Wow! That is one glorious beard! The Jeep & smart cap look awesome too!

[@Bruce2518]

What a gorgeous truck! Goals!

[@weekendexplorers3587]

Thank you! We love exploring in it.

[@steveparr7816]

Great video guys.

[@ROgletree]

That looks really nice.

[@jenniramsey3908]

Thanks

[@kentkoehler4460]

Looks good 👍

[@TommyMuros]

Wow...amazing

[@RocklanderUSA]

Looks great! 🎉

[@weekendexplorers3587]

Thank you! We really like it!

[@sheepdog819]

Can't wait until the open the builds for the F-250. Ordered mine last month. Should be producing now. With the supply chain issues and geopolitics, I can imagine over a 90 day wait.

[@ramblin_reardons]

I guess because we are Jeep people they figure we can do all this assembly. it looks heavy but you guys did a great job.

[@weekendexplorers3587]

The RSI topper only weighs 175 lbs. With 4 people it was not bad at all.

[@bobvedder2451]

I ordered one for my gladiator, they said 14 weeks out! But when it gets here i will love it i am sure.

[@jenniramsey3908]

Totally worth it!

[@7sonero7]

Good job ! Do a follow-up video so we can see how it's holding up.

[@dy1837]

very nicely done. fyi - adventure has the window both front and back

[@MrDesertchameleon]

Looks great! Thank you for the video. RSI's video says 9 ft/lbs for the C-clamps.

[@weekendexplorers3587]

Thank you. We will double check ours.

[@MJDGator]

@@weekendexplorers3587 9 ft/lbs = 108 in/lbs so it is the same.

[@K9_Leash_Holder]

@@MJDGator well they clearly did 108 inch pounds looking at that.

[@glenlittlefield9869]

Finally getting ours installed on our Gladiator this Friday...6 month wait.

[@jenniramsey3908]

Awesome! You will love it!

[@SALTYCOMBATDIVER-ExInstructor]

Great video! When did you order yours? I ordered mine 04NOV2021 and it still hasn't arrived.

[@edueuedu]

Watching from Brazil

[@weekendexplorers3587]

Thanks for watching!

[@gus473]

🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷😎✌🏼

[@WolfOverland]

i keep going in between this and the alu-cab topper for my gladiator! this looks way better and i like the moly panels but the alu-cab is lighter and all one piece so idk

[@dy1837]

watching your vid again. fasteners that you were having difficult with is opposite. should be on the inner side to tighten easier?

[@donbailey8409]

PLEASE LET ME KNOW, HOW YOU FEEL IN LONG TERM!! LOOKS GREAT

[@jenniramsey3908]

We have had it on for 6 months now and love it. We have been camping out of it and some moderate off road trails in Arkansas and Oklahoma. We would definitely recommend it.

[@yogiesoemadjipoetranto4169]

Very good smart cannot RSI

[@jenniramsey3908]

Thanks for watching!

[@nickbernard6177]

Did the weatherstripping for the base of the Smartcap come with it or was that something you guys purchased seperately and added on?

[@weekendexplorers3587]

All the weather stripping came with it.

[@Venom83.]

Вот поэтому гараж должен быть оборудован тельфером с грузоподъёмностью до 1000 кг.!

[@Hook1fred]

Don’t know the clamp is different for the Tacoma but our instructions for out c clamps are 6 nm.

[@071Tom]

108 in/lb is only 9 ft/lbs, not really that much at all.. Do you think this job would be possible with only 2 people?

[@SugarFiveZero]

How long was your wait for the smartcap? They seem to be sold out everywhere.

[@jenniramsey3908]

We got our in June 2021. It took 3 days. We called our local distributor and they found one and shipped it in.

[@JW-mz1fp]

I CALLED THEM AND CALLED THAY ARE ON A HOLIDAY ALL DAY EVER DAY NOT A WAY TO RUN A COMPANY.??????

[@jenniramsey3908]

@@JW-mz1fp we called a local dealer, for that was LineX, and they found one for us. We did not call RSI.

[@USA__WILL]

Why is the license plate numbers inverted 🤔 💭 ?

[@michaelpitcock5445]

Like the cap mabe next time you will was your jeep first.

[@hbeas]

Can you have the smartcap on and the hardtop off?

[@yogiesoemadjipoetranto4169]

Full set smart canopy miss and sir

[@KilometrosALaVida]

where you buy it????

[@jeepcam2692]

What’s the dimension inside ?

[@jenniramsey3908]

Thank you!

[@lucky2knight]

Good, but too expensive over the typical truck caps...

[@stevebailey7633]

Really bulky front window design, looks like it would significantly reduce visibility out the back.

[@jeeprubicon6650]

Wow. I actually fell asleep twice only to wake and see these guys getting older and older. Zzzzzzzz

[@Godaboveall24_7]

The best cap ever!! Check out my review on it. 😁😁💯

[@bobvedder2451]

My order for the RSI smart cap will not even built until august so I'm told...irritating!

[@themanthelegend7048]

4k never going to happen. Maybe if it was made in America and I didn't have to assemble it.

[@K9_Leash_Holder]

108 in lbs is 9 ft lbs. There is no way that is 108 INCH pounds and rather FOOT pounds. It’s a common mistake in cases like this as 90% of torque wrenches are in foot pounds and not inch pounds.

[@ghgggg914]

so so so

[@turndroid234]

The cap is too heavy. It will reduced the payload of the vehicle even more. I guess if you're not overlanding the jeep you'll be fine.

[@crewchange470]

Wayyyyy too expensive

[@tucan7915]

I bought a truck cap not this kind for 75 bucks at the junk yard people spend 4000$ for this but why what's so special bout this doesn't even have Windows

[@MikeSmith-ey7ku]

Good luck finding a gladiator cap for $75.
