OCD was going into overdrive with the winch wiring sticking above the grille so rerouted those and then gave it a good cleaning.

One more reason not to order the all weather mats as part of your build I guess!
Also you lose the carpeted mats for summer.

Headed to the coast to watch a Pineapple Express blow in. 80+ MPH wind gusts and by the time high tide gets here it’ll be time to head to high ground as the wave will be blowing over this parking lot. I also forgot how much fun it is driving into super high wind gusts... awesome.. not. We also went from 70 degrees yesterday to 30’s today. Never need a reason to go somewhere in the Jeep...yesterday we had the top off and front window down....

I've had those since my first JK in 2007. I also have quick remove t-bolts to hold those 6 D-rings versus the factory torx head bolts. Anyway, they do come in handy. My cargo net can be attached high when I am carrying tall stuff or attached low, for groceries..

Do you think the threads are different or you tried and they are in fact different? You figure they would be the same as the JK. I'm all ears, let me know...

Your rig didn’t come with locked spare? I thought that was standard.
My Sahara didn’t come with any wheel locks. Std wheels, but all terrain tires.

Yah out of the three Sahara’s at the dealership mine came from, only one had a lock. I’m guessing it’s the dealers who put them on and some just don’t do it?
