What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[Hydroboy35th]

Hi! Just picked this up yesterday. I'm new here and this is my first jeep! Only thing even remotely similar was my 76 bronco. But this thing is AWESOME. I love it! Was kinda kicking myself for not getting the hard top until yesterday afternoon when the weather got pretty nice! The top took me MAYBE 5 minutes to remove windows and collapse the top! Had to have my dealership get it from another dealership 2 1/2 hours away just so I could get a 6 speed that's was a neutral color and had power windows/locks. I thought that was CRAZY! Almost no one around me has 6 speeds at their dealerships anymore.
Like I said I'm new here so any tips, tricks, and advice is more than welcome!

Welcome & congrats on the purchase. Be sure to check out the “new member” thread and also the “clutch gang” thread. I love my 6spd as well.

Beat me do it. Yep, clutch gang and the new member threads are great.

Welcome to the club!

I took out the back seat. Camped and wheeled for 5 days in Big Bend NP last week, and decided it had to go. I’m going to build a 6” platform for my gear storage, cut a 4” memory foam mattress topper to fit, get it upholstered, and be ready to go camping at the drop of a hat.

How do you like it? Considering installing that on my Sport with 33" tires.

I’ve been riding around without a front sway bar so it’s hard to tell. Everything that came in the kit was high quality. The mechanic guy who helped install it seemed impressed.

Give me a few days and I’ll report back.

How do you know something is reliable when it is less then 1 year old.more like 90 days.

And yet you own a Jeep JL, a product itself that is barely over a year old. There is no way for ANY product to be much more than a year old. So, you bought a vehicle that isn’t proven reliable, and you can’t upgrade ANYTHING on it because nothing is proven reliable at only a year old, and you chose this. And you participate on this forum, criticize things that are all new to all of us, and are scared to jump in. You are a walking contradiction. Jump in, or don’t, whatever. Meanwhile, I’ve had these lights for 8 months and I am enjoying them, they are very well made, they participate in this forum, Dynamics Diode vouched for them, my Jeep guy knows these guys, they are based in Colorado, if they made crap products they wouldn’t be in business.

Installed the falcon 2.2 back on the steersmarts.

Smashed my rear bumper at EJS, haha. Luckily my Poison Spyder one showed up yesterday.

I got my @Motobilt spare tire delete kit installed with my @BajaDesigns squadron’s I’m using for backup/aux lighting. Works great!

Finished building my tire carrier / tail reinforcement

Really thinking about getting those wheel in GunBlack. Any issues with getting the rear view camera to poke through??

Installed the @JTopsUSA sun shade. I was driveing 65 MPH+ without any concerns. I think the manufacturer says 90mph rated.

Very nice product 100% recommend.

Test run on the Mopar window storage. Fits and finish is excellent at 65mph also.

Top was down going to the store and on the way home the bottom fell out of the clouds. First time Jeep owner second time top and windows off.

That was fun!

Awesome! Can’t wait to pop my hardtop off and install my JTops! Glad to hear you’re liking it and it’s holding up at highway speeds.

I finished my homemade DIY headliners for the front today. Not bad, and it only ended up costing me about $30 in material.

Nice! What material?

 

[Crusifix]

.50 inch high density foam board, headliner adhesive spray. Black foam backed headliner and Noico (dynomat) material.

Here you go, sir....looks like no gap (or negligible)

Are the bulbs inside the clear markers amber in color?

 

[PapaJoe]

Finally installed the Dynatrac lift!

Which wheels are those? Do they color match to your Sting Gray or are they closer to Crystal Granite?
