oh no!
i hope they're not going to wind up like the Underbelly pans for the Diesel.
@Artec has been about a week and a half from being able to ship them for over a year.

They’re about a week and a half from being able to ship them, but they are up on the site. I had messaged them about availability on their site after looking at them.

Is there an advantage to the spare tire delete? Is it a weight distribution thing, or is it looks? Maybe you don't like the weight on the rear door? I can see some of the wheel and tire packages opting to go this route if the spare is going to be too large. I guess new tires and wheels would be cheaper getting four rather than five. Just want to see if there are any other reasons to delete the spare.

Some people are no longer able to lift the weight of a larger spare.

Positives:

• Less weight
• Less money (4 tires vs 5)
• No chance of hitting the spare when dropping off a ledge
• Looks great (depending on opinion)

Negatives:

• No spare if do something like cut a sidewall
• Some organized events (e.g. Jeep Jamboree) require a spare
• Looks the opposite of great (depending on opinion)

Work in progress. But she’s coming along very nicely.

New here, but thought I’d show before, during, and and getting there at 6 months old.

How did you mount that front plate? I have the same bumper and have no intention of mounting a winch, been toying with how to cover the fair lead opening, thought about cutting it off, which I will probably do when it comes time to paint in a few years, but in the mean time a novelty plate like you have seems like a good option. Did you just drill and tap, or install an aftermarket plate holder? TIA.

Cheap plate mount from Amazon, mounted upside down utilizing fairlead mounting holes. Drilled vanity plate and ran block heater plug in through fairlead opening to vanity plate. Functional and hides lack of winch.
