3rd row. Just need some carpet. I’m saving the factory cargo cover/carpet to use when we remove the seat/brackets in a few years.

Can you give me more info on how you did this with the JL. We did this to my JK and I’m thrilled to see someone do it in the JL. In our JK we used the teraflex brackets and a seat from a 2door JK. Will that seat still work or did you use a different seat? What did you use to attach it? Can I reuse my teraflex brackets or did you use something else? Thanks for any info’

And before it starts yes I’ve done all my due diligence about the crumple zone etc and still will be doing this as I am comfortable with the perceived risk.

maybe 3 inches... not too much...

Go VOLS!

Moved the middle brake light down into the wheel carrier. Do this on all of my Jeeps. The JL was easy. No cutting of the tower.

Installed Diode Dynamics switchback LEDs in the fenders. Switches between white and amber when you engage the turn signal. On my Sport S I now have OEM LED fogs that came with my JLUR take off steel bumper, OEM LED headlights - takeoffs - currently no halo, and DD LED switchbacks in the fender.

Do you like the Diode Dynamics switchback bulbs? Any way to turn them into a DRL? Also, I'm looking at a Rubi take off front bumper w/ no fog lights. I'm guessing I can use the stock fogs on my Sport with the Rubi bumper?

Nice! Do you have a write up on the steps to do this?

There's a write up in the DIY forum

Did you replace shocks and springs ? Where can I find those ?

Yes replaced both shocks and springs. I bought mine off Craigslist and the guy who sold them included the sway bar links and Lower control arms. The links and arms are the same length so I didn’t replace those, just keeping as spares.

Thank you for your concern and you’re not raining on anyone. They have been consulted and I am aware of the risk. I take a risk every day I hop in my vehicle as we all do. I feel just as safe in the back of this as I do in the back of a TJ when considering a rear collision. I am also working on a hoop to extend the roll bar.
Would it make you feel better if I made a disclaimer? This is for Off-Road Use Only.

I'm wearing my raincoat, I LOVE IT!

Did you use the Mopar relocation setup? or what did you do to mount it there?

I dismantled the stock assembly and then mounted the light only to the top of the spare carrier. Supported the front of it to make sure it pointed flat. I'd share how I mounted it but I found the way I answer that question makes some other members uncomfortable.

AKA it was 3M tape. No?

Did you have to use resistors?

You will either have to use resistors or a programmer to set Front Turns to LED. I do not have the switchbacks, I have their other LED bulbs on my Rubicon and I used the Tazer to set them to LED with no issues.

I am unsure of the first half, I believe most people just turn the parking lights on to use them as DRL, but your sport halogen fogs will NOT fit in a rubicon bumper, whether it is plastic or steel will not matter. Sport fog lights use a 3 point mount for the fog lights and the Rubi bumper is either 2 for steel or 4 for plastic.

Did you use the stock light and just customize it or purchase a new setup

Your Jeep is a scrapbook.

Lol... all my Wranglers usually are. This one is way more expensive than my others though
