I will get better pics in the daylight but I mounted my JCR bar. I know it isnt structural but like it for now. May be later I will try and tie it in or I can sell it and change up a little. We will see

The top one is my 2-door getting delivered...
Picking it up tomorrow!
The funny thing is, after all the angst associated with various delays (order placed in May), I’ll actually pick it up on the exact same day when I’m dropping off my leased car. Perfect timing. I could have saved myself a lot of mental energy if I didn’t fret so much along the way...

Wow! There you go, Alex! TJ was about right! Can’t wait to see your impressions. First turbo on our forum I think!

Ha! You guys make me so envious! All I will be able to do is a bag for my freedom panels. Oh well...oh, and put the seat covers on when they arrive, let’s not forget that!

The part where the bug flies by and the dog briefly jumps at it would end so differently with my younger Boxer, and would not have endedwithout the tent being flattened, a sausage mysteriously vanishing, and me getting hit in the groin Dick Van Dyke style
Ya them boxers can be a bit hyper lol

A Nikon D7100. My photos are hit or miss. But some come out great.
Nice camera! Since you're shooting with a DSLR you'll have some nice options to "grow" into. The photos you posted were beautiful. Did you shoot them in RAW or jpeg?

That picture must be from a "Go topless/ bottomless" event! :)
Hahahaha its from a trip out to the hot springs and us trying to get a pic that showed our state of undress but was also able to be posted in public forums. Took us a few adjustments and shots to get everything covered just right.

Looking good! I ordered my 315/70/17 tires and will be putting them on the stock rims. I was wondering if the tailgate reinforcement kit is recommended? Thanks.

I dont see a need with this metal bumper cause it actually sits right on the bumper. I think you had the stock bumper which looks to have a larger recess area for the tire. The gate opens and closes smooth but it is very early in its life of holding the tire. I am not sure about what the weight difference is between the 2 sizes. Most only do the reinforcement with 37 so far
