2018 JLUR
I think this is actually my first post ever. The Goose Gear plate system and 60/40 seat delete sleeping platforms were my first purchase. They took about 30 days to arrive. They were well packaged but included no instructions, stickers, or patches. I also did not find any Youtube videos for the JL install. It's not incredibly difficult but i did have a few questions along the way. I received answers to my questions when I contacted Goose Gear directly via email.
It didn't take that many tools to install. I did have to pull out the bad-boy pneumatic impact wrench for one of the seat belt bolts. Other than that I did it all by hand plus a cordless drill. The quality of the product is very nice. I think Goose Gear carries that reputation. Yes it was expensive. Yes you could have done that in your garage with routers. If I made my own product it would not fit as nicely and I don't care to purchase bulk hardware and specialty tools that will be stored away in my garage for the next 20 years. I especially like that I can install some of their other equipment in the future if I so choose. For right now it makes a killer sleeping floor and I have plenty of space to tuck away gear in the thru-floor compartments.
My long term plan is a roof top tent. Once my 7 month waiting period is up for my Gobi Stealth rack i'll pull the trigger on a RTT. After that I can start building the interior with a fridge and other storage options. In the meantime I am trying not to melt my credit card.
My true first "mod" was the 67 Designs rail mount. You can kind of see them in some of the pictures. Great product. Up next are bumpers! I have a LOD Destroyer rear shorty with tire carrier and the LOD signature shorty front with stinger arriving later this week. They're on a Fedex freight truck right now. I will update the thread after install. Even further down the road after bumpers I think that a Genesis dual battery set up and the SPOD Bantam with touch screen are a good idea as I add electronics like winch and lights.
I look forward to your input and advice! Let me know if you have the Goose Gear floor and how your build progressed after that. Time to plan a trip!
