So what’s it for?
I’m just getting all my wiring in place for future upgrades so I don’t have to repeatedly pull trim each time I add something new. Primary use for this power cable will be for a dual ARB compressor mounted under the passenger seat. Should my (future) ham radio not like being powered off of one of the Aux power wires, I may use this as a direct battery connection for that as well.

Today I made a mounting bracket for some relay sockets and the circuit breaker that will be protecting all my aftermarket goodies.

I installed a few things this weekend!

Go Rhino Rockline Full Length Rear Bumper
Smittybuilt XRC Gen 3 Synthetic Winch
Barricade Trailforce HD Front Bumper
2 Rigid D Series Pro Floods.

Didn’t finish until dark so you will have to wait!

Also PSA: It seems the rear sensors on 2020 Jeeps do not install the same way as previous model years. The mounting bracket in the OEM bumper is not removable any longer. I had to rip my entire harness and sensors out.

Retired from Corrections....I have stories.
Finally finished making a platform for the back of my 2-door.

I had to build it up a little to cover the subwoofer. It anchors to the forward most rear seat anchor points and the rear tie-downs.

The anchor points on the left are for my ARB fridge. I may add a pull out for it in the future, but this will work for now.

The raised platform on the right is for the dog, while allowing storage underneath for long items, such as cots or chairs. Again, I might add a drawer in the future.
Nice work

If you want to drive over some Saturday we can get that lift in for you, just have to give my buddy a few bucks to use his lift, he’ll say we don’t owe him anything but he’s usually doing side work on weekends so I like to give him something each time I use it.

You won’t have to pay me anything, glad to help. Save you a chunk of change, should only take a few hours. We can also run it down to dealership where he works and set the caster and toe on alignment rack........:)

You’re making it to trail run, right?

LOL, Thanx, I already pulled the trigger on ordering and Install with Happy trails here in Jax and laid down a deposite. Rock krawler says it will be 4 weeks before they get the lift system to us. I really appreciate your offer and will take you up on the help next time. Yes we are still planning on being there the 29th. another fun day of trail riding.

New wheels this weekend...

Yes, Quadretec Recon. The tires are the original from purchase. The offset of the wheels, put the wheels/tires about 3/4 to an inch outside the fender vs inside, like it was with original wheels.
