I don’t intend to do a whole lot of mods but I have been ordering stuff like crazy (from a planned list).

first Mod is done: (don’t laugh!!!!!, gotta start somewhere): Stubby antenna. Works great.

Stubby antenna; check
Smittybilt portable compressor: check
Air down from 41 pounds from dealer (why? Why? Why do they do this?) to 37 pounds: check
Push in all fuses: later today (I consider this a “post manufacturing mod”). Ha! Interestingly, all of mine were properly seated. No issues.
Check oil: 5 quarts! Shocker.
Rubber gasket from Amazon to keep rocks out of fender/body grove goes in today: check
Mopar keyed lug nuts: on order
CB radio kit: on order
Trailgater table: on order
Door sill guards: on order
Mopar winch guard for steel bumper (winch is pending...... might as well get this bar now though!): on order
Rock rails (would be on-order except for LOD’s fire. Waiting.
67 Designs: considering


First “mod”..... lol......

Cool. Thanks. I read some people have trouble with regular radio reception (not satellite). Do you find that true?
We dialed in a few stations and had no trouble. That said, we are in Houston..... close in..... not in a more remote area.

Ok. Thanks. I’m in Los Angeles so maybe it won’t be an issue for me either.

Stubby antenna has always been my first mod. It's a thing.

I’m in Los Angeles, wish I could chime in but I never listen to the radio. I’m always on my Apple play. A few times the radio was running there were no problems with reception. Sounded good.
