Thanks for this. Looking at your pic, it looks like you took ALL the trim off, including the one by the rear seats/trunk. No issues with the top mechanism sliding up and over eh?

Oh and do you have a pic of the top down with that setup?
I didn't take off the rear trim, probably just the angle. Here it is topless. Itching to get some bigger tires.

Installed the Mopar removable roof racks along with a couple sets of Yakima Jaylow kayak carriers. I know with these Mopar roof racks Mopar states they don't recommend carrying heavy kayaks or canoes(more of a legal requirement in my opinion).. but that being said I've carried dual kayaks with this set up at roughly 45 lbs each.. from Seattle to Portland many times at speeds of 80mph+ and it holds great! No issues whatsoever if anyone was curious. Also want to add that the Yakima SKS lock cores are a perfect fit for these Mopar racks.. so a little peace of mind when it comes to security.

Are those a pair of tranx back there? What you catching over there in Texas?

Nope. Those are Citicas.
I had to stop buying reels a few years ago. Got way too many.
Still love my Calcuttas best. Should never have left them.
Haven’t fished much yet this year.
We got 28” of rain in May.
Pretty much just rained all month.
Heading up to Colorado to fool with Tenkara for a couple of months this summer.

Here are photos with the lights off - Then on. Then with brake lights. Then with bake lights and reverse. Then side view so you can see the side marker. Camera makes them look orange, they are not in reality. They are deep red. This is also showing the third light

same here my buddy has done several including his house it's going to take me a lot of practice to put it back on after I take it up in the air because I have to back up just right to make it fall in the hole when I release the straps. It will just take practice. Hack my time I do my top my freedom panels and four doors on a JL it will probably take me an hour LOL at least. Texas weather is crazy it will show 5 days of no rain the next day it will rain it's a lot of work to do all of it for 1 or 2 days. I want to be able to at least get five days out of it taking it all off and putting it all back on LOL. always remember because we almost forgot today when pulling out make sure the bag glasses up or the spare tire will break glass. I'm not even going to say LOL cuz if not funny. we started to pull out today and felt it bumping and stopped and looked at it was the rear glass I said oh my gosh that was so close I couldn't imagine breaking that glass
Put tap on your floor that lines up to one of the middle bars on where to stop and line the sides as well. You’ll be able to back up to the same spot every time.

Despite telling myself, that for once, I wasn’t going to do a lot to this Jeep, I just finished installing a lift. I went with TeraFlex 1.5” coil spacers at all four corners, Teraflex Alpine front lower control arms and front adjustable track bar, Teraflex 2” bump stops, and Old Man Emu front and rear extended sway bar links. A couple crappy pics. I held the iPad crooked, so it looks nose high in the pic, but in reality, it is perfectly level.

Installed Quadratec's 4 Bike Folding Bike Rack. It's solid with great build quality. For $150, it's a bargain.

I like the plate...
