There will be lots of pictures coming in the near future, once I get it home and have the decent camera and location.

Ordered on 4 May and picked up 5 July. Did Mopar lift, Added 35” Toyo AT Xtremes with Drop Stars 645B wheels. Also added the Mopar winch guard and trail lights. Christened it at Tiger Bay WMA, near Daytona, FL.

Stole this idea from another JLWF member:

Went for a drive up Pike's Peak today. What a beautiful place to spend the day. Also drove along the South Platt River on our way back to Denver. I wish I had pictures of that. it was INCREDIBLE. A great place for tubing and fly fishing.

Finally made it to the beach today!

Still haven't been able to pick it up but we did stop by so the wife could check it out.

It's like it was separated at birth from the one next to it. Just subtle differences to tell them apart. Rear lights, rear bumper, tow package are the obvious ones from the outside. The reflectors in the middle of the bumper are something I wasn't expecting.

The filler pieces between bumper and fenders will HAVE to go. Wifey is not keen on cutting these pieces so I'll just take them off for a while and prove to her that I'm right and she's wrong before breaking out the Dremel.

Love it. A blue 2-door Sport S with the granite wheels is exactly what I'm leaning toward. I just love how the blue and dark gray wheels look together. Blue and gray has always been my favorite color combo. Do you have any other mods in mind? I'm thinking about sizing up the tires, but not much else. Maybe some grill/headlight inserts.

This looks awesome! I'm digging the OWL, too.

Thanks Joe. I thought it would look awesome, and I'm glad I chose it. Worst case I coulda had the tires flipped if it didn't turn out.

The tires are being swapped out for 33’s before we pick it up.
Front windows will be tinted to match the rears.
I have a set of Rubicon rock sliders waiting in the basement along with a new gas cap with door and some Mopar grab handles.
As mentioned above, the fender air dam thingys will be removed for a more open look up front.
Eventually it will end up with the OEM LED’s up front too but that may have to wait until next year.

Oh and Wifey said the aerial will have to be changed for a stubby one. Good girl. She’s getting the bug too.

Front fender fillers removed (can be done without cutting). Rubicon Wheels and tires and rock rails added.

Any issues with the fog lights being water tight? I would love to remove mine. Thanks

It's home.

Originally, it was going to have KO2's fitted but they didn't turn up, so it now has Duratracs instead which I think look pretty awesome. Hopefully tomorrow the 5th one turns up in town so I can have a matching spare. Size is 285/70/17.
