Before and after - plasti-dip on the badges of honor. Was to much bling for my liking! Not perfect but better! Word to the wise - plasti-dip the chrome edges prior to applying them to your Jeep!

I have no idea but if I had to guess I think the starter or battery crapped out. It would click and the voltage would drop when I pushed the start button, it just wouldn't turn over.
Had this happen to me. Dealer tested both batteries and ended up putting in a new muffler. Not sure what happened or why my battery drained, but now I keep the Tazer in the glovebox unless I’m actually using it.

Used Double Take Adventure mirrors with Ram arms mounted to cowl for the first time this evening. Functional field of vision, and WAY more stable than hinge-mounted mirrors I've used. Very little shake despite intentionally driving on a very rough section of road and 75mph on the highway.

I like the running boards.. make, model and where you find them?
They are standard on the Sahara.
I was gonna say... you beat me to it :)

That’s why I love my stock Sahara steps. Biggest and widest for my wife and kids. Pretty resilient too and doesn’t show scuffs or dirt much.

Looks familiar! :)

Did you go with the 6” RAM arm? But yeah @Moto_21 would be proud hehe

I still have mine, but took it off for a bit as I’m using the mirrors that came on my EAG tube doors. Will put the DoubleTake back on when I go full doorless.

3" on driver side, but 6" on passenger side.

I also used a 1/2" spacer rather than buying a shorter bolt. The only hex head bolts I found had a smaller head than the Ram ones. With a smaller bolt head, I think the 1" rubber ball would compress too much & not hold the mirror as steady as it should.

Yes indeed ... @Moto_21 gets the credit for bringing this idea to the forum! (I believe your post about them was the first time I saw the idea though ... so credit to you too!)

Agreed. I think even Jeep has relized this as well. They have released the 2019 Sahara Altitude model where all that crap is blacked out... I don't even know who's idea was this blingy thing... Anyhow, I am happy with the results.
I honestly believe they know the bling doesn't look as good on purpose to incentivize upgrade to the Rubicon...

Some people like it, so they sold a bunch of them. Some people don't, so they make a blacked-out version, and are selling a bunch of them. Win/win for Jeep.

EAG rear bumper installed with their third brake light and license plate relocation kits. I'm liking the look and will soon have a new wheel/tire combo that will replace the stock spare (as well as the other four!).
