I just ordered a black Moab 392 with the Dual Top option. I want the hard top to be painted. I have read conflicting things on the web whether it is painted or not so does anyone know if it is painted? (I posted this already but just found this Moab specific thread).

Moab comes with the painted top as standard

did you bolt something below the rock rail? looks like another tube or something under there?
ACE Rock Sliders. What I like about them is, by retaining the stock Rubicon sliders, they don't leave a weird gap. I swapped them from my previous EcoDiesel to the MOAB. Unfortunately they've doubled in price since I bought mine. I paid $666 including delivery, tax, and installation - Father's Day deal during COVID. The deal was MSRP of $535 (powdered-coated) with free delivery. Now, they are $1,013 without delivery. Inflation? What inflation?

I haven't kept up with ACE sliders in awhile, I bought a pair for my JKU back in 2013 and stacked them like you did. Back then, there were reports of people having issues with the stacked rails when offroading and taking hits. Maybe that's no longer a thing but worth looking into. I pulled mine off and went with frame mounted ones (that I bolted onto the frame instead of welding so I could pull them offer and powdercoat them again - held up to 30+ trips on the Rubicon!)

Congrats. I ordered the exact same one yesterday. are you gonna put bigger shoes ?

last Saturday, I was at a Jeep dealer dropping my 4Xe for the 68C recall, saw a blue Moab, the sales gal said sit inside and start it, it started with open exhaust and i had a ear-to-ear grin....

My financial planner aint happy

I forgot to update this, but my Jeep is at the dealer in Louisiana now. I got all the paperwork done last week while on vacation, and got home last night. Wired over the rest of the down payment today (with the holiday they won’t get till Tuesday). Hoping that they can ship it mid week, and maybe I can have it this weekend.

I once ordered a new 911 from Florida and had it shipped to Colorado. The waiting for the truck was the worse part. In my case the logistics caused mine to, seemingly, see the entire USA on the way to me. To add insult to injury, the Porsche arrived in a snowstorm (I lived at 8,200'), and it took a week before I could drive it. Hopely, yours will be a straight shot! Obviously, I love the color. Our pictures are like bookends of each other. It gives you a chance to see what yours looks like on 37s.

Yeah mine was delivered right as we were getting that last snow here in Ohio, the driver had 2 trucks he was taking into eastern PA once he left. That was the weekend the east coast got 12-24” of snow so he was earning his $$ on that drive.

My last one was up 3.5” on a TF lift with 37’s, I have parts in a cart at a couple places but trying to hold off for now. I don’t doubt At some point this one will get a similar treatment.
