Not taking a chance on a dealer oil change….

Rechargeable water dispenser for my Rotopax setup….

Second setup idea, just need a longer tube to reach the Rotopax….

Gotta’ love the stuff you find on Amazon….

Next on the agenda. Going to see how the Zroads wind deflector works while I’m at it.

Slow down, my wallet can only take so much!!

If it helps, the lightbar is an Auxbeam. It was around 125. This was definitely not a NEED item. But, even if it only lasts a year…..I could buy 14 of them for the cost of the KC Gravity Pro lightbar .

I love the look of Wranglers with the Gravity lightbar, definitely a WANT though.

In the history of bad ideas, getting a light bar is at the top of my list. Lemme' 'splain:

1- GoRhono light bar brackets look cool as $hit and state 50" light bars fit
2-50" light bars fit if the end user finds longer mounting bolts and finds or makes the needed spacers (which I did)
3-My 13" antenna would need to be modified to fit with the GoRhino brackets
4-Light bar whistles at 38 MPH and at 53 MPH it invites a cavalcade of monkeys to proceed to beat my Bestop Sunrider like it owes them money
5-The ZRoads light bar silencer installed super easy.....unfortunately with my combo of Auxbeam light bar and GoRhino brackets, the Zroads presses up against my windshield.

So all in all, while I could sort this out, the juice is not worth the squeeze for me.

"Cavalcade" love that word! Sorry to hear about the discoveries but this made me laugh. Not at you of course...but "with" you? I hope. Maybe not...

Have you tested out those Fishbone sliders yet? Looking to get those on my snazzleberry. The price is right just hope they withstand. Going on Rubicon trail in June

Thanks

I have not yet. I just started joining all the Jeep groups I could find on FB because I had no idea where to go wheelin' lol.

Mounting a 2 gallon Rotopax to the rear shelf in the Jeep

Jazz - That’s an awesome setup! I have the same cargo tray and want to mount my Rotopax the same way. Did you fab the mounting plate yourself, or source it from somewhere?

 

[Jazzicon]

I repurposed a tailgate rotopax mounting plate I had. But honestly any piece of steel with a lip would work. Just reinforce the bottom under the tray or use big washers.
