I spent some time installing my WeBoost and routing the cables as best I could to keep them hidden. I couldn't find step by step pictures on either routing the external antenna from the rack to the inside or for routing the internal cable inside the sport bar. So I'll try and walk through the...
I've had a Roam case for a while now, and I've never been happy with using straps to mount it. Late last year, Roam unveiled their rugged mounts at an Overland Expo. I emailed them asking if they had a way to order, and they said they were taking pre-orders. I ordered two for my 95L boxes...
I'm planning my next JL, which I'll purchase about a year from now and build up. I'll be going with a pair of Dana 60s, but I'm trying to decide between Currie, Dana Spicer, Dynatrac, and Fusion axles. It seems that Dynatrac has a great marketing arm, so I hear a lot about their axles...
I spent this afternoon installing a GMRS radio mount and running the antenna cable (and power) to under the passenger seat. I've seen bits and pieces of this on the forum, but I thought I'd make a threat that shows end-to-end how to do it in hopes it might be helpful for others.

I have a 24” AntennaX since pretty much the entire time I’ve owned my Jeep (about a year). Just the other day I noticed that the antenna has taken some trail damage (picture below). It got me thinking: am I the only one? Now that I look at it, it is a bit vulnerable. Do people just remove them...
Maybe it’s just me, but I’ve had the Cloudflare “checking your browser” thing pop up twice in a little over an hour and pages /seem/ to load slower than they used to. I may be the only one, but thought I would report it.
Is the Cloudflare set up a recent change?
I installed my ACE Standalone Tire Carrier last week and I thought I would write up a few tips:
First, watch a ton of videos. Watch them multiple times. Not only the ACE video, but watch other videos about installs of other tire carriers. What frustrated me was all of the steps that ACE...
I'm pretty sure my next mod is to replace my stock tire carrier. At first, I didn't see the point of the tailgate hinge replacement tire carriers (Ace, Evo, Motobilt, etc) until I watched a few install videos to see they really are quite solid. My plan had been to go with a bumper mount tire...
In my (seemingly) never-ending pursuit to have a larger than stock spare with working backup sensors, I tried the ACE spare tire riser kit. I had previously tried the Go Rhino, but it vibrated over bumps which made me nervous. I figured that something that didn't move the spare as much would...
Ever since I added the Mopar tailgate reinforcement kit I've been eyeing the accessory holes. I decided to take a swing at using them. It didn't quite work out, but there's a path forward to actually make use of these holes.
The first step was finding bolts that would work...
When I was recently jacking up my Jeep to swap wheels/tires, I wanted to use jackstands but could only find descriptions on how to do it. After I got things figured out, I snapped some pictures hope others can make use. I jacked it up with a jack under the pumpkin front and rear.
Ever since I decided to get my Jeep, I’ve been looking for wheels. I fell in love with the Hutchinson wheels in black (stats here: https://www.rockmonsterwheels.com/products.php?product=jeepjk). I recently got my order in, with a lot of help from @Northridge4x4 on the order. I would not hang...
Worked with David today on a wheel and tire combo that they didn’t have listed on their site. We talked out options and got the order placed even though it was a bit oddball. Great experience and I’ll certainly order from them again!

Okay, I’ve had enough of being blinded by a reflection off of the shiny insert on my automatic shift knob. Has anyone found a replacement? My eyes will thank you!
I installed a Satin Grille on my Black JLUR today. I took a few pictures that compare the two, in case anyone is interested. The top grille is stock, the bottom is satin.

I've quickly become an avid fan/user of this forum and I don't even have my Jeep yet. I believe in value for value, so while I do try and contribute with the little bit of knowledge I have gleaned, I would really be interested in a paid membership to the forum. In my ideal world, paying...
I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of my JLUR and so I've started shopping for the mods I'd like to perform. Knowing I intended to go aftermarket, I did not add the steel bumper option. As I've been window-shopping (and reading everything I can about the different bumper options), one of the...
