I wrote up a description of my antenna mount and posted on May 19 in the GMRS thread. Sadly I didn't think to take photos of the actual bracket work in progress, but the Teraflex lends itself very nicely to my bracket.
One of the reasons for changing out the factory mount was to try and reduce...
I finally got a chance to take a look at the differences in the camera mount between factory and new. At first I thought it was significantly longer, but by my 'calibrated eyeball', I'm not so sure. Attached is a photo of the rear view with new tire carrier and KMC FMJ137 wheels:

Iād start with a list of required features. For me, Iāll never own another vehicle without adaptive cruise control. So 18ās are out. If your feature list can be satisfied with those offered on the ā18ās. And if you really plan to update in a couple years anyway, then a sweet deal on an ā18 seems...
Set of used spidertrax JL specific spacers, used less than 2000 miles before I swapped wheels.
Retail $260 for 4.
Yours for $125 shipped to lower 48 US. $100 if picked up near Renton, WA.

Bigger tires need clearance and adding that suspension lift is only half the...
I took a similar path using the ProClip for JL, with the integrated lightning jack. I routed the cable behind the radio trim for a nearly invisible wiring.
While Iām not sure Iām in love with CarPlay (I have on both my JL and my Goldwing), it sure does make the connection effortless.
I just finished an antenna install on my JL. I have the new Teraflex spare tire carrier, but the concept should also work with the factory carrier. I wanted something that was centerline mounted, and didnāt interfere with the CB antenna on the factory reinforced tire carrier.
I took some 1/8ā...
With a little inspiration I took my fob apart today and swapped out the black buttons for red ones, and filled in the lettering for a more professional look.
I used several coats of model paint and let it dry completely. Then I used wet 600 grit sand paper, followed by 2000 grit to sand off the...
Would you have any words of wisdom to share with us for how you accomplished the in-fill painting of the words? Iām planning on doing exactly what you did with the red panic button and black āotherā buttons. What did you used for paint and brushes for the white in-fill? Thanks
I installed the new Teraflex adjustable spare tire carrier.
After swapping my stock wheels for the KMC XD 137FMJs a couple weeks ago, I didnāt like the way the tailgate felt when closing it. It just wasnāt closing as solidly as it did with the stock wheels. I have been running BFG 35x12.50 KM3s...
Nearly new (~3000 miles) optional Rubicon wheels in like new condition. No scratches, dings. etc. Have valve stems but you'll need to swap over your TPMS sensors.
These are not the standard Rubi wheels, but rather the upgrade version.
Full set of 5. Asking $450
Sweet - thank you. I just ordered one. I put new wheels on last Friday, and I can tell the new tire/wheel combo puts a bit more stress on the tailgate due to the different offset moving the weight of the tire/wheel a bit farther from the tailgate. Also, Iām hoping the reclaim some viewing angle...
