What mods do you regret and would NOT do again?

Why do you regret 35s on a JLUR? Shouldn’t that handle just fine?

35s handle fine and are ok for a non-lifted JLUR but IMO they look too small on a lifted JLRU. Went to 37s and didn’t notice any reduced power or reduction in mpg compared to the 35s but the look and off-road performance was much better.

Never understood what people have against the stock antenna. I love the way it looks on a Jeep. Jeeps should have long antennae.

Wait until you back up in the woods, snag your stock antenna on a branch, have it flip forward and put a crack in your windshield, and find out that a replacement windshield with adaptive cruise is $1,200 to replace.

How much lift do you have?

I’ve had one with the Mopar 2” (which lifted closer to 3”) and now have one with the TeraFlex ST2 (2 1/2”). Pics are with 37" tires.

I put a rubber tip on mine to prevent that.

Rough country mlc-6, it works well, however was a pain in the ass to install. Cheap hardware that didn't fit, a couple broken bolts. Being somewhat handy and having a good selection of my own hardware, was easy to get it running. There are many options on the market and while it still works, I've seen better setups that I'd rather have.

With that said, I've put an auxbeam 6 button controller on my old truck that my teenage son helped install. The rough country mlc-6 is better than the auxbeam.

Thank you. I plan on a 2 door JL in the near future, preplanning my build.

Oracle Sidelights. They're nice and bright but the install kind of sucks and the 2 sided 3M tape doesn't hold them close enough to the body.

Can always painted black to look better

I did that on mine as well as the gynormus muffler.

Simple solution, take it off before going into the woods.

Yes, or just get a plastic/rubber stubby that looks better anyway.

Door sills, I would go the clear protection film next time.

Stock antenna can warn you you are about to damage your Sun Rider or Sky One-Touch in low ceiling situations.

I live in a city and go into many underground garages, and I usually always have the top open.

I was just behind one with hinge gate reinforcement, and spare tire delete. I highly suspect he has a regret
