How loud is the rock crawler?
It's a nice tone - the top and doors are off til Fall, so I really like it and rarely go faster than 50ish on the roads around us so I don't notice the drone folks mention...tell ya what though - when the engine shuts off at a stop it's extra weird now!

Can try and get a sound clip from it soon! I keep forgetting.

Agree. I’m loving mine too. Couldn’t wait till Redline came out with the complete bolt on kit.

Plasti-Dipped my badges. A little scary spray painting my new Jeep!

Got my first oil changed. Made sure they put in 5 quarts. Checked and they did. Lady told me they use actual bottles since it’s synthetic so there’s no mistaking it. They go by what the computer tells them.

Also put the jeep back to stock using the superchips tuner before I did it, just in case and while driving got the ESS light. Not sure what it was. Had a code but I put it back to stock, and redid it and it went away and loaded the tire size back to where I had it before. A little weird but it’s working fine now.

Installed my Synergy 1 5/8 spacers yesterday, makes for a much better drive (needed after installing the 35s on my Sahara to address the rubbing at full turn) and the looks/stance is pretty awesome too !

Next : OCD console organizer (tough one lol), and 2.5’’ spacer lift kit by RC

Looks great. Do you have any side pictures with the spacers? This is kind of where I was wanting to go.

Man that was a lot of exacto-ing!:

Dude that looks awesome, I may have to give this a go! Do you like the look? How many coats?

Which side markers did you install, and are you happy with them? My Bikini JLUS is on order and that is one of the early mods I plan to do. I prefer the white over smoked but they seem to be less popular, and it looks like yours are white.
I did the original Diode ones (however) found them on Amazon for $20 cheaper, I like them a lot actually, clear versions, and when the lights are on you cant tell they aren't the amber ones bc the LED is bright, but just the shear look of uniformity of clear wrapped around is what I was going for … The install was kinda crazy but there is a way to do it where you don't have to take off the entire plastic wheelwell protector , and headlight housing if you have a long enough torx screw adapter ….

I love it. Had to set aside time to let it dry but not much actual work. 4 coats.

Thank you! Those are the ones I was looking at and I agree about the clear wraparound look. I’ve quickly reviewed videos/tutorials on installing them and I’ve noticed there are two ways to do it, with the one you mentioned seemingly taking substantially less time. Guess I’ll find out when the time comes.

Installed the Rockhard 4x4 cage, just a heads up for anyone running a Sunrider top. The rear bracket will work you just have to hit the Best top plastic bracket with a grinder .

How was the install? Did you need the additional drill bits they sell?

Looks great painted same color as your jeep.

Dropped the windows and installed the 69 design rail with cell phone mount. Ran a flat USB C cable from mount to armrest USB. Hid the cable behind the dash and ran it to the right of the drivers side panel and tucked cables underneath the gearbox covering. I have a drop stop in between my seat and the center console which hides the cable as it pops into the armrest. Super clean and you dont see any wires.
