Well, I did it again. This is my third time switching wheels. Went with the Mopar “Beadlocks” but these are without the Beadlocks. Asked DT to leave the rings off but they put them on. They might just stay there a bit now.

Very nice. Are those the 315 70 17 C rated KO2's? And what size lift?

Installed a set of @ROAM flat fenders, and black stick on grille inserts on my Wife's Sport. The stock sport fenders were really limiting her available shock uptravel. We need to order some front inner fender liners, and measure/install shorter bumpstops.

Yes, it is those. Interested to see how the C rated feel compared to my previous 35x12.5 E rated Pro Comps.

I still have the same EVO 2.5 Boost with their Front Lower Adjustable Control Arms.

Originally I thought I'd use fabric Velcro ties but they seemed to be limited to 10" in length at Harbor Freight (just slightly too short) and I wanted to just try this as a proof of concept to see if the carabiners, (i.e. grab handles) would stay in place.

My zip ties are very tight (I used plyers to get the final maximum tightness) and I don't think they will dig in, but switching to Velcro or coating the zip ties as you mention might be a good idea.

Here's the back passenger's seat one. The MOPAR one is still there as, as stated, I was only trying this as a proof of concept at first. The carabiners/grab handles stay where you last left them: up or down.

(As a premium member at Harbor Freight the 5" carabiners are actually only $0.99 during the Thanksgiving sale.)

Installed a set of KMC Beadlocks and 37" Yokohama G003's on @TankCustomsAlex 2dr JL. Now to decide on a lift :whatsgoingon:
The Yokohama G003's have great road manners! Not much louder/stiffer than the factory KO2's.

Those will most likely be my tires when the time comes... Heard all good things about them.

How do you know it’s overpriced for what it is? Did you ask the owner of that Jeep to hold his flashlight? Lol

It’s a $20 dollar flashlight that’s pretty solid. If I compare it materials wise to a surefire (I have plenty) and I assume surefires are expensive (again never had to pay for one) you would think you would be more interested. You stick with your 3 surefires and I’ll go buy 20 of these for what I’m sure are 1/10th the cost and “cute”.
I have one and Love it ....when it goes bad then we trade up

I added a new decal. :giggle:
Finally, I’ve been debating this one for a long time.
Well "technically" I do have to manually shift from PARK to DRIVE to REVERSE.... so I completely agree and if it did shift by itself I would have it at the dealer ASAP!

Took off front bumper. Repainted it from a flat black to a flat gunmetal. Also painted and installed the motobilt rear bumper as well. And since i had some spare paint left, I sprayed the rock rings the same color.

Installed MetalCloak skids on Friday. Missing two bolts from an install error. Got the one standard bolt mixed up with a metric and stripped out the rivnut. MC was awesome getting me the specs so I could source locally. Then said they would rather just send me out what I needed to make sure everything was right. Great customer service
