I have done more than 100 miles of gravel roads in the last 2 weeks, not a single rock or pebble in the


Waste of time and money. I had driven over 100 miles of gravel roads in the last two weeks my seams are clean (except dirt that washes out), Like I said I installed the rubber last year it lasted a couple months before it started coming out. I removed the rubber 2 months ago.
Just sharing info to someone who asked. I don’t really care if you do it or not.

Anyone have a simplified wiring diagram fro the ARB compressor? Wanting to build a portable pelican case option for air that I can put into various vehicles. The wiring bundle that comes with it is more than I need. Thanks in advance!

Seeing how it was 97° today, I put my top in safari mode. The complete sun block is fantastic! I had previously removed the plastic door surround and putting the top in safari mode doesn't touch the roll bars and the top worked well without the surround. Nice.
This is good to know. So you just left your oem top on, and can slide it up or down still? I think those trim pieces are just for door sealing and a water channel...

Super impressive! Good for you!

For the T8s, I did a switch out at my church. They had the old in-ceiling fluorescents housing with 4xT8s each. They were HOT and UGLY.

Found some really bright LEDs to replace them all. All I had to do was cut out the ballast (please switch the breaker off lol) and do a direct wiring to just 1 side (the specific T8s I chose were powered on one side only) and BOOM! Super nice, bright white, cool LED lighting. Got them on Amazon, they WERENT expensive. Not dirt cheap but not pricey either.

I liked how the black painted interior of the freedom panels turned out, so I painted the rest of the interior of the hard top 2 days ago.
(I also have a homemade headliner nested in each freedom panel, and across the whole hard top ceiling. The glued-in headliner made for more masking, but less actual painting.)

I masked the windows, foam/rubber seals, and any point that would contact the Jeep body.

Here are some interior pics of the freedom panels and hard top once they fully dried and were back on the Jeep this evening.

I just used the purple wire for on/off and obviously the power wires.

Installed Quadratec's 4 Bike Folding Bike Rack. It's solid with great build quality. For $150, it's a bargain.

I'm curious about this. We need a rack for more than 2 now, but I have only used the racks where the bike sits on top of it then gets strapped down. How does it work while hanging there, don't the bikes move around or hit one another?

Have you done the breathers? Do you mind posting some pictures if you have any available? I am stuck with the breathers - can’t find any good instructions or walkthroughs. Tnx!


Installed hauk offroad river raider snorkel. Happy with it so far. Will do the breathers tomorrow.

Yes, the surrounds being removed didn’t impact the top one bit.

I FINALLY got my Jeep back after 28 days in the dealership for the service shifter error. Thank goodness for the Jeep Cares program because they kept hounding the dealership for me. After changing the shifter bezel, then the transmission control module, then a reflash with something current and some wiring harness through the firewall they were able to get rid of the error. When I got it back, I had to give it a bath and drive it on whatever errand my wife could give me. I was beginning to pursue the lemon law if they had it much longer.
