Small addition that brightens up the dash

Looking forward to seeing your results! I have not touched mine YET, lol. I do have huge plans in the far future with some axle swaps, a moderate lift, rubicon’s n color matched fenders and 35’s. Possibly 37’s, but not sold on it yet. I love my 2 door. It’s awesome and completely capable but I want a little more in the far future. Good luck. Show some completion pics.Ok this 80th Anniversary thread is kind of dying and I'm still excited about my vehicle(2 door), so I want to get some opinions: I am getting a Teraflex 1.5 inch lift with Falcon shocks, I already bought some pricy 33inch Nitto ridge grapplers and any more of a lift would make them look a little small and I don't want to buy any new tires soon. Has anyone done something like this on their 80th? What are your thoughts, good or bad. Its just a spacer lift with some new bump stops(and shocks) and the like.
Been looking at that bumper, looks stock and its light, any issues with the install?Installed the MP Concepts Aluminum bumper (replica of factory steel bumper) on Friday, Christmas preset for the other half. Looking for a small lift 1" to 1-1/2" and no larger than 33" tires as she does not want anything more.
No issues with install, I did not install the winch mount plate. The screws for the fog light caps/surrounds were a bi***. I had to take the bumper apart to swap the tow hooks, it comes with red hooks. This is about the same weight as the plastic bumper, the powder coating is thin and could be darker, but it is not much of a concern. Overall, very satisfied with the bumper, it was on sale for just under $600.Been looking at that bumper, looks stock and its light, any issues with the install?
I bought them as well...easy on and accents the interiorSmall addition that brightens up the dash
I honestly don’t know. However it seems to me it would not work. The steel bumper lines up with Rubi fenders. They sit higher than ours do.I searched through here, maybe I missed it but has anyone put a rubicon rear steel bumper on their 80th? If I just get the end caps from a Sahara and swap them onto the Rubi bumper, would they line up with the stock 80th fenders?
Thanks. I'm not worried about the vertical gap, just the width misalignment. I found this thread that shows how to do what I am wanting to do, so I think I'm good.I honestly don’t know.
