What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[T-Rob]

On the topic of Baja Designs, I threw a pair of LP6's on the bumper today. They are BRIGHT!!

How did you put them on the steel bumper...drill holes?

It's my understanding from others on the steel bumper it already has the holes.

Yep. I just fill in the old holes from the previous lights with plastic automotive trim plugs from Lowes. They look OEM. The upside is that every time I drill holes in that bumper, it gets lighter!

I started with a 10: light bar, but it wasn't any stronger than the LED headlights. I then swapped out to Hella Black Magic 500 lights, as insurance for the OEM LED's freezing over, which they've done twice. Their light was only valuable in that situation. Otherwise, they were completely overpowered by the headlights and fog lights. These give overpowering light and they put out more than enough heat to keep them from freezing over. I finally have what I needed all along.

Installed Redline hood lifts.

1. Shipped in a sturdy tube, well packed, decal and instructions. A+
2. Well designed. A+
3. True, 5 min install using existing holes/hardware A+
4. Works fantastic. One of the most useful mods you can do!

Over last 3 weeks we've installed Smittybilt front and rear bumpers, Smittybilt winch with Factor 55 prolink, window vents, put graphics or lettering on side of hood and of course washed multiple times.

I think they ride great. I have the RK RRD 2.25 shocks on. On road with the combo I think it's about 5-10% stiffer than stock which I actually like as I felt the stock suspension was too squishy. Off road I find it just awesome. I live in the desert and end up on way too many washboarded and heavily rutted roads, I haul ass through these and you barely know they are there. I've never hit the bump stops on the bottom end, and I've bombed through more than a few "oh shit there's a huge hole in the trail" situations. For the slow crawling stuff I've got no complaints at all either. The only complaint I've got at all with the kit is that I have too much articulation in the front end, i'm going to have to install limit straps as I have almost shot out a coil spring on a couple of occasions. I'll take that problem. Problem is that ride quality is very subjective, so where I may really like what I have others may not. Also keep in mind that i'm running their entire kit, their shocks, and rolling on Mickey Thompson ATZ P3's which are a D-load rated tire (I run them at 28 PSI cold because of the stiff sidewalls). I also air down to between 17 and 20 PSI when i'm offroad. So there's a ton of factors involved in how a set of springs will feel to different people. I will say that several people who offroad have made comments about how amazing my Jeep rides both on and off road FWIW. I have a bunch of mods planned which will add some weight and will probably go to 37's when I swap out my axles, I fully plan in buying their 3.5 springs to update my lift. So, all that being said I am 110% satisfied, but i'm not sure how much of it is specifically the springs themselves or the entire setup as a group.

I need to install limit straps myself. Did you ever do this to yours?

Installed the Mopar rear cargo mat with seat back protection. Felt very weird cutting the carpet on a brand new vehicle, but looks good.
