That looks really nice. Why is one seat in a wooden box, and why does it have embroidery that’s not in the Jeep? Thanks.

Wired up the ROAM rock rail lights today. Swapped out the ones that came with the rails for amber colored ones. I didn't do the wiring unfortunately. Electrical wiring is a mod area I need to get smarter in. So I had a mechanic friend help out. Very happy!

Has anyone seen a thread on RTT's? Curious if there has been any comparisons done or if anyone has any feedback on the tents from Overland Pros.

Installed rubicon take off suspension with Fox 2.0 shocks. And new some Mopar Jeep emblems to go with the new gray / red / white theme we are going for.

The box pic is one Katskinz texted me haha, I decided to go for no logo!

That looks fantastic. Do you know how hard it is to install? Sounds like you had someone else do it for you, but wondering if it's a DIY project if one has the time?
Hey! Katskinz will not allow you to install it. They will only ship them to an authorized installer. But they tend to work with great installers

I built a split rear cargo deck for added security in my soft top. It's designed to cover everything if the rear seat is deleted, or have the rear deck cover remain when the rear seat is installed. Though not visible, I've since added D-ring tie downs on the top and bottom of the front deck as well.

This is for my 2dr, but I built one for my old '18 JLU. If anyone wants the JLU cover I'd love to sell it near cost.

might need one of these but looks like it would interfere with Freedom top removal?
The way it’s designed it’s not hard at all to get to the levers for the tops. The most you have do, is to move the edge of the shade slightly near the front lever on each one that you have to pull down. Super easy.

I *love* this!! Looks great—you did a fantastic job. Is it a type of cover that can be removed if one wants to put the back seat in?

I would love to have something similar, but do need to put the back seat in when my daughter and boyfriend come up.

First time Jeep owner here. I am pretty pleased with the look of my Sahara Unlimited and trying to keep the look close to stock (I realize I am in the minority!). So far just some minor changes/additions and have less than$250 in.

- Removed the cheap looking Wrangler Unlimited stickers

- Swapped out for the Rydonair stubby antenna
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BDFQDVJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_gk8nDb917W34F

- Purchased OEDRO Floor Mats
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GNCDHD6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_Kj8nDbCTJMCQ7

- Jeep valve stem covers (Wish they sold those in packs of 5...poor spare has to do without):
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B012FQIS1Y/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_6k8nDb1AE1VPJ

-Shadeidea Jeep Wrangler Sun Shade JL Unlimited 4 Door Front and Rear 2 piece-Black Mesh Screen Sunshade https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QQ4V3PB/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_gj8nDbDW64RC0

- Had to forgo the Maroon and switch to a Black and White SIU license plate frame.... Added a black bottle opener for good measure (GO SALUKIS!):

- Bunker ind. LED smoked side markers:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QGSC39Z/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_Zg8nDbFMQPBBR

-Tried to craft my own hoist for the hard top but had a near catastrophic event. Always check the weight rating as I had a pully snap in two! Will try again..... In the time being I purchased the Mopar touch up paint (68060405AB) for the top :

I can highly recommend freespirit recreations rtt’s. High quality and worth every penny. I’m using the High Country 80” tri-layer and it’s great.

Hey thanks. Yeah they're removable. I use the four hard top mounting threads to bolt down the cover. Takes about 3 minutes to install or remove.

For the 2 door, I have the two part deck designed to allow the back seat to be installed and still have the tiny back cargo area covered. But as you can see in the pics, I presently have the back seat omitted, gaining a good amount of space for the tiny 2 door Jeep.

For the 4 door build (the deck that needs a new home), it only covers from behind the back seat to the tailgate. So the back seat actually stays in and works like a barrier. You wouldn't need to take the back seat out at all.

Installed the Mopar factory trailer wiring kit. What a PITA. Glad that's over.
