What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[danzy55]

It's not so bad, once you get used to it.

Wow that is SWEET!!! So used to seeing made in China shit, Russia was a pleasant surprise!

 

[danzy55]

Use your pattern/colors

Don is awesome! Does great work

Just small stuff today.
1. Hood struts
2. 15" antenna

@danzy

Your @Redline Tuning hood struts are mounted incorrectly.

You need to remove just the struts themselves and install so the the black tubes are attached to the hood...

They are self lubricating struts and the way you have them now, they will not self lubricate..

Not using the Redline struts. Bought the Rival units off Quadratec.

That looks fantastic!

yeah. The more I look at it, the more jelly I get.

 

[danzy55]

time will tell.

 

[Rhinebeck01]

Love them work great $75 well spent! First Jeep part ever that said made in Russia on the box!

@danzy55

Just looked at the install instructions for those... Crazy these are Russian knock offs not Chinese.... 8-)

Not sure how they lubricate with the install of the struts that way....but that is the way it shows in the directions..

Geeez, no quick disconnects on them it seems, right?

The top piece has a disconnect if you needed to release it. If they screw up in 6 months I’ll be writing a review...I just checked out the website and the Jeep accessories they do have a cool looking front aluminum bumper!

Got the ball rolling on my Rebel Blackout Kit install. An auto glass shop removed the hardtop side glass for fweeeee!

Before...

And after...

 

[Combat Chuck]

Added the Mopar cold air intake to compliment the Borla exhaust.

Does the intake sound any different than stock?

Replaced the stock Michelin 245/75R17 tires with Nitto Grappler 33 x 12.5 x 17 tires.

I'm not able to hear a difference over my Borla exhaust. I also left the factory paper filter in, so that might impact the sound.

I've always liked the rear quarter window flag decals on hardtops and I don't know why I've never seen this before.

I like how it's still pretty noticeable from a distance

Picked up my soft top today from the dealer. I’m impressed it’s actually wrapped inside the box. Figured it would be just placed in there.
My oh my, my dealer has a ton of wranglers on the lot. I mean a shit ton and have a ton coming in. They are modding a lot of them too. There was a sweet sarge green sport with Matt gold rims that looked really nice. And a rubicon glat that is getting 40’s on it with new flares, front and rear bumpers along with a beefed up brake package. You couldn’t even move in the showroom and service area with all the crates from Jeep. I couldn’t get over it. I don’t think they have another Jeep on the lot except wranglers or glats.

Jim just curious who your Jeep dealer is - getting ready to buy next week and probably not buying in PA but wanted to make sure I wasn't leaving out any potential dealers I might have missed =)

Today was adding cheap cube lights. I added the brackets last week, but I needed to add a pigtail to the lights because the leads were very short. I've run out of time, so they're not wired in right now. I'd also like to get a shorter bolt to make it look cleaner.

Do you have a link to the brackets you used?
