What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[nerubi]

You need help? Give us a signal so we can relieve you of your distress. Can those be flipped, look like Velcro attachments?

They all have MOLLE straps on back. Big one on left (has tools) has velcro and snap buckle for front. The two on the right (one a first aid kit the other personal security equipment) have zippers .

Plasti dipped the front grill today. Grill removal was super easy. 5 minutes to get if off and put it back on. Took 2 cans

I also have been shopping around for a roof basket for my mopar roof rails. I didn’t really like anything I found online, they were all either to small or too tall. So I opted to make my own. I made it 60” wide and 63” long and U bolted it to the rails. It’s low profile this way and made out of aluminum so it’s really light!

I would be interested to hear how the plastidip is holding up on the grill? I have been debating doing the same to mine. Cheers!

Thanks for this idea. I just did the same. I looked around Amazon for a bit at other 3.5 inch speakers, but came back to these since they have the same exact connectors, and not the separate positive and negative. Here's a pic of mine, difference. My stock on the right, new on the left. Funny, my stock speaker looks different than yours.

How much of a difference does this speaker make? Is it worth it?

Did they give you an estimated shipping date? I've been looking to get one and would have thought they'd have shortened their production time by now since it's not much different than the JKU rack.

I haven’t heard a peep from them. Supposedly they are going to call me in the next 48 hours to confirm order, etc. Before I ordered, they mentioned on the phone it was a 12-14 week wait. I don’t really get it, but I don’t have any other options with the soft top.

I believe he’s referring to the upside down American Flags which indicate distress. Can they be switched to right side up?

Those look great! How is the ride quality compared to stock? We're having the ST2.5" lift installed, and I can't make up my mind between these and the 2.1 Falcons. Thanks!

I'll be waiting for an update on the ST2.5" lift because that's what I'm thinking about for my JLUR. The 3.3 are the same shocks as the 3.1 except they are adjustable correct?

I was referring to just the flags. Not a fan of the upside flag unless you need help.

Got the powder coated white rings back. Installed them on the Jeep.

You're right, I don't have Alpine system. Yes, this was an excellent upgrade. Now I want to look at replacing the roll bar speakers.

Are these the speakers you used? I can't find any specific to JL

Nearly a month with my JL, decided to share my progress.. Credit to the forum for most of these ideas..

Installed a Rubicon Steel bumper, Rugged Ridge headlight covers, Green Rigid radiance pods, and plastidipped the grill..

Used the Mopar mojito rattle cans to spray the interior..

Installed an ARB twin compressor with MORE bracket.. Waiting on parts to finish the wiring.

S-Tech 4 switch with Mopar cubbies... Regret not getting the 6 switch btw, if you are going to do all that work, might as well go for 6 switches, instead of change to 6 switches later on.. Scott at S tech is great. I made an error with my order and he called me to explain that I'm an idiot and refunded me for the parts I didn't need..

Some Molle bags from amazon on the tailgate.. the straps weren't tight enough so I used zipties..

I might need a bigger fire extinguisher..

Did you have your dash painted to match the body?

Changed my diff fluid again with about 700 miles on it. Installed the freshly painted and shaved motobilt diff cover along with the metalcloak rear diff skid.

Whenever I get the sliders and bumper/tire carrier I will finally be done with the big stuff. I think I’m around 10k in so far. Doesn’t do any good figuring it all up

Already did flip them. Didn't notice as I was struggling to put the bag on. Those straps are really tight on the seat.

I flipped them after I processed the photo. I did need help, those seat straps are really tight and hard to get to in a 2 door.
Also, my dealer didn't have a 2 door Rubi to look at when I ordered so I was surprised to see the subwoofer instead of the storage tray. But since I took out the rear seat the floor space behind the front seats are just right for my tow strap bag and cargo bag.

Can you send me the eBay link for the grill inserts?

Sorry, for the late reply. Were you able to get them? I got them from the Mopar store associated with this forum.
