A Snazzy Build

[JL MADDOG]

I've owned a lot of vehicles and, for the most part, none of them escaped being modded. However, I did not mod them just to be doing mods. Rather, the modifications were specific to how I planned to use the vehicle and to improve some aspect of the vehicle's performance.

In February of 2021 I traded in my 2017 Ram Laramie CTD (highly modified to improve towing performance & general driveability) on a 2021 JLUS Willys. It didn't take long for the mods to start and, again, they were functional mods that fit my intended use.

Phase 1 started right after I purchased the vehicle. If anyone would like pic or two of the installs then let me know here in the thread.

1	A-Tach JL Holster Mount	Installed 2/21	Well made, great accessory
2	QuadraTec Flashlight Mount	Installed 2/22	Good quality, works great
3	Toyo AT II 285/75R17 Tires	Installed 3/4	Very quiet great traction in rock & sand
4	Dominion Offroad JL Hi-Lift Jack Mount	Installed 3/8	Some trimming needed. Works
5	QuadraTec Dead Pedal	Installed 3/10	Good quality, works great
6	CravenSpeed Shorty Antenna	Installed 3/16	Fits perfectly
7	Front seat tilt kit - Desert DoesIt	Installed 3/23	Good quality, works great
8	eBay console side storage	Installed 3/27	Fits perfectly
9	Easy Start Stop module	Installed 4/3	Works as advertised
10	Tint, 30% Front & sides, Limo on rear	Installed 4/14	Also installed polarized film inside windshield
11	67 Designs phone, tablet & Garmin dash mounts	Installed 4/14	Great fit and design. Rock solid and holds the gear well.
12	GPCA M8 interior tie-down D-rings	Installed 6/26	Easy install, works great
13	MOPAR cargo mat, gap hider & seat back protector	Installed 6/30	Great looking accessory that definitely protects the interior
14	Garmin InReach Mini	Received 7/20	Set up, linked to tablet, synched to satellite
15	RockSlide Engineering - RotoPax Mount	Installed 7/23	Easy install, flexible & holds two RotoPax containers.
16	MOPAR F & R grab handles	Installed 7/27	Easy install, works great

So Phase 1 is complete. Phase 2 is about to commence and includes mods that are specific to my vehicle's ability to off-road, support some overlanding and assist us with recovery as may be needed.

Looking forward to your next mods. I grew up in AZ. Does Apache Junction offer some good trails? I know the Superstitions fairly well...spent some time hiking them as a scout. Beautiful area

There are quite a few easy to moderate trails near Apache Junction. Most lead to old mining camps, some lead up to box canyons, others traverse the ridges overlooking the Salt River. I am looking forward to exploring all those and more.

Nice looking Jeep! That moon on the wall behind it looked like a snorkel! Lol!

Delmonico isn’t the same as snazzberry is it??

Same paint code. It does look different on the JL but I attribute that to the body lines that change the shadow and light reflected.

Great color, I had no idea..big fan of that color on the Rams, although I ended up with Granite crystal on my CTD

 

[kermitjewel]

It looks great on the Ram trucks as well!

my friend has a delmonico ram gen 3 diesel 1500 laramie; i thought snazz was different, guess not, love his color on the ram

 

[JL MADDOG]

@kermitjewel It's probably a 4th Gen truck, made from 2009 through 2018.

his is a 2020 i think, gen 3 eco diesel, delmonico, a rare beast, one of the few on the planet i think. delminico red, gen 3 eco diesel ram 1500 wise....

 

[JL MADDOG]

It's a Gen 4 classic then if it's a 2020. The 3rd Gen Ram production ended in 2008.

the diesel engine is the gen 3 part, like the gen 3 in the jl diesels now..... unsure on the truck body generation. definitely a 2020; my apologies for any confusion

big Cummins guy here, on my 6th one.
Actually a gen 4.5 is 2019+. I have never heard of a ISB 6.7 being called a gen 3. Sorry to derail! My 2020 4.5 gen….
