Really loved these on my JK. Hoping they don't disappoint on this platform either. Just need some real springs and control arms but this will work for now.
What difference from stock do you notice?

Is the Smittybilt hook detatchable, or did you have to buy a new rope? I haven't looked closely at mine yet (still in the box), but pics I've seen look like the hook is not removeable without cutting the rope. I like that shackle mount!

Picked up our Rubicon after Jon from Absolute Perfection completed a full detail. His attention to detail is exceptional. He applied CQuartz Finest Ceramic Coating and it turned out outstanding and the pictures don't even come close to what it looks like in person. He sealed the top also so it won't fade and I had him remove the Wrangler Unlimited sticker underneath the Jeep emblems and the factory film on the rear. The factory paint required a lot of paint correction to accomplish that deep gloss shine.

Built my hardtop and door holders today! Still some adjustments and additions to be made but it’s getting there. Hopefully less than a month before I see my new baby :rock:

Installed my Spiderweb Shade today. Then my son and I drove around in 70 degree, sunny weather for several hours to try it out. And I was glad about that. :)

Not detachable, I had to cut it off 15 mins with a cut off wheel

There has got to be an issue with some of the glass.. maybe a QC issue. These things are cracking way to easy.
After owing a TJ and JK for the past 13 years, I am on a first name basis with Dan, my glass repair guy. He knows the code to my garage and just comes in when I call him. It is worth the price of such joy
