What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[vonbek]

I am currently using zip ties. I like your method; be easier to remove/replace. Where did you get the webbing and rings?

Looking to do the exact same for now when mine shows up. What offset are the rims?

-38mm

They kick out quite a bit. Almost 4" from the fenders. And yeah - you can rub with the stock 33" KO2's on the Rubicon. Did it the other day.

This looks pretty cool! I could see using it a few times but someone else might could use one of these all the time.

I went with the Ace Engineering JL Cargo Rack. Solid rack.

Method 105 beads installed.

Was a bit easier to do than expected. My first rodeo with the beads. (almost sounds erotic, I know. )

Stock 33" wheels for now - 35's once they die off.

What size rims are those? I'm putting the 2.5" Rock Krawler lift on my JLU Sport S and considering installing 20" XD Rims with 35" Nittos.

Buuuuuuut.... you said you're running into rub issues? Any additional pics? Yours looks a lot like how mine will look when I'm finished with all the mods.

Large offset is why my 33's can rub a little.

I did completely max out the flex intentionally.

Here are a few more pictures.

Neat but I have some questions:
their site says for hard top only - yet this is clearly a soft top in the picture?
It looks like you have to have your hard top off to have this because the mounting bracket would impede the bottom of the hard top where it mounts to the body?

Don’t think so. I think it would just mount to the existing points the hardtop mounts too and be installed over the hardtop lip.

This looks pretty cool. In my JK I custom built a rack for the cargo area and it car in handy all the time especially when you needed to load up the rear with gear or even groceries. I like this one as it sits up higher and allows for larger items to be stored underneath. The ACE engineering one sits lower and mounts differently. I may get this, but it would conflict with my bike mount system. Hmmm.

My factor55 goodies arrived in the mail.

Took it to the car wash to remove all the leftover mud from last week and found out that my Jeep isn’t as water tight as I’d hope.
During the carwash, I got sprayed in the legs and face with soapy water. The doors and windows were closed properly and yet it got in enough to spray my seats and body.

Car wash didn’t do anything to the mud, I had to get under the Jeep and dig several inches of thick mud out by hand while the sprinkler was going.

I put my 2.5" RC lift and tires on today. They look great, they give the Jeep a totally different look. The only problem that I had, is the tires rubbed a bit on the plastic trim around the bumper, this happened only while turning, and the left was a bit worse than the right. I took and trimmed the plastic a bit, tried to make it as straight as I could, but in reality, I bet no one would even be able to tell.

Thanks for your unexpected reply... I should have gone directly to ACE in the first place... Just called and ordered the Rock Sliders from you. Hoping it won’t be too long a wait... Cheers

Go to Northridge - can still get em and free shipping. That is what I did. Ordered 5/4 arrived 5/18

Put on my new plate.... Ace sliders and Warn winch waiting in the garage for when I get back in town.

Got excited as my Sahara went into KZL status yesterday....

 

[frank-o]

Meanwhile in ny...installed a shorter antenna. Rag dropped out my hand and I stripped the finish a bit.

Good news is it looks stock and no noticeable loss of reception :cwl:

Cover it in a little black plasti dip

 

[steelerpsugirl]

Got her all washed up, soft top put on, and finally got the spare tire mounted.

Looks awesome! Do you have a link for the brake light in the tire?
