FWIW, I used a 2.25 ton floor jack and jacked the back end up via the diff. Stuck the stands on each end and lowered her down. In the front I used the front diff to raise the driver's side and stuck the stand under and lowered it. On the pax side there is a steel plate far enough away from the wheel to let you jack it up and still have room to slide the jack stand in. I did my jeep that way and we just did a friend's jeep that way.
So you had no issues jacking the Diff? That's reassuring. I'll try that next weekend, Thanks for your input. The metal housing on the Differentials looked thin to me so I was skeptical.

What brand did you use and did you need resistors?

Feels very solid in hand. You will need a resistor but I decided not to put one in as I will be getting a Tazer fairly soon. With the Tazer you can set the light type as LED so you will not get the hyper flash/ turn signal out message. The outside actually flashes normal speed. No flickering yet but have only had them installed a short time.

I've been thinking about those.... Looks real sharp. :like: How's the overall coverage?
I have been those. I think they go nice with my white jeep. Though I think they are smaller than the black ones, right?

Passed the 1000 mile mark on my JLUR. Painted the grille mesh red to match the tow hooks when I got home.

Finished up my comms, Yaesu ft-8900 with remote head and jeepuniq dual mic and mobil radio mount, just need to mount the ext. speaker, got most of the winch installed, waiting for factor 55 hawse and pro link.
I went with Warn plate and Smittybilt x20 10000#
Trying to figure out mounting for my hi-jack and power tank in rear area.
The roll bar is way funky.
Looking for ways to use the rear seatbelt upper mounting holes, but not clear yet,.....

Great thanks! I’m looking forward to it. The halogens are much better than the JK ones but I definitely want a bit more.
As requested...

Headlights ONLY (halogen lamps w/LED bulbs installed):

Mopar Fog Lamp assembly ONLY (this is the actual mopar led fogs that come w/the Rubicon bumper. This is not a plug-in bulb, but the entire assembly):

Both Halogen headlamps w/LED bulbs AND Mopar Fog lamps are ON:

I'll try to find a darker road to take pics, but it's difficult being in the city.

Found a good deal on a set of used Trail Gear Creeper Locks. My plan was to have them re-finished until the set of Beadlocks I really want come off backorder. After my wonderful wife @TankGirl helped me mount them and mocked them up to her Jeep she claimed them for herself and asked me not to change the color combination(Matches her Darth Maul theme)

Well, here they are halfway installed on my Jeep and mocked up to hers....

I thought saturday was a reasonable day to build a shelf for the back. Seems to work out ok.

Installed a pair of molle fender well panels. It would be super easy to install in a hardtop but for the softtop I had to take the softtop bar behind the rear doors off and used the inserts to hold half panel in and used a m8-1.25 x 20 flat socket cap screw to hold the other side. Feels pretty study so far and love the new storage
