I am doing mine this weekend. Should I get only a few beers, or a bottle of liquor? (I am trying to forcast how pissed i am going to get while i work on it)

Only Couple of beers! It really was easy worst part was of course locating rafters and making it "fit" where I wanted on the ceiling- but my joists are on 12" centers and are engineered beams with 2x4 flanges so they all located pretty good. Except a front pigtail lag I had to move outbard 3 extra inches but no biggie. Took about 2 hours in all.

Installed a JK Fox ATS with the 1-5/8 tie rod clamp. I really wanted to get my hydro assist setup done before EJS, but at this point I'm just happy to get the stabilizer up and away from rocks.

Added mudflaps and they are well designed and crafted. Used them on other cars/trucks i owned.

 

[Hydroboy35th]

Added his & her 5.11 MOLLE bags to the back the seats.

Im a bit confused, i thought the aux switches were already set up and ready to go. The wires are by the battery. What or why do you have to go into the dealer? Do you really have to have the switches activiated in order for them to work?

I believe that's true. They go through the Uconnect system, that's how you "program" how they act - battery vs accessory and latching vs momentary. They're not just simple toggle switches.

Edit - if it's installed at the factory or by a dealer, it comes activated. Manual activation only needed it when you install it yourself.

If the Aux switches are installed at the factory they are activated and ready to use.

NOW, if you install Aux switches on a JL that did not have them installed at the factory then YES, you have to enable Aux via a computer flash.

Dealer does this enable Aux, flash with the wiTECH tool or you can do yourself with a Tazer JL programmer.

My weekend project arrived today. Two days early I might add! Feel beefy, satin finish, and sitting on my kitchen counter unlike the Mopar locks!

Rama-Lama-Ding-Dong! Got'er done. Only comes with 2 keys, not 4 like some of the YouTube videos show. Time will tell on how the finish will hold up. Important note to consider: The Clasp is metal and if you are not careful, there is a possibility of metal to metal contact when hooking the hood shut. Just don't go slapping it shut and you should be fine. Install time 15min total. Difficulty level: 1 yawn.

Aahh, that makes sense. Mine did come with the jeep from factory. I can actually edit each switch like you said, latching/momentary/battery/ignition right through the radio settings. Which was why i was confused as I saw all that stuff just the other day on my radio settings.

Thanks for getting back.

My wrangler didn’t come with the switch bank so I ordered one through mopar. Once it is installed, it needs to be linked to the Jeep with the Uconnect.
