Great pics.

That is beautiful country sir! And a fine looking ride too!!

 

[nomographer]

Yes sir- When my wife and I go hiking i strip out all the navigation and after market comms gear as you never know who is going to show up at the trail head. Send a pic when you have it worked out.

Under the rear driver's seat

I have two straps which will stay in place.

Which attach to the underside/desk stand primarily to prevent sliding backwards.

The rear strap stays with the radio and goes through the seat brackets to prevent forward motion and side slip.

Install/removal will probably be 2--3min with the electrical connectors... if I ever find a way to manage that.

(For starters where are the aux wires in the passenger area? Everything I found was wired to a connector.)

pps Yeah I just haven't put in the requisite 3.7hrs to fish them out. 20min wasn't enough.

Looks good. Wires are behind the glove box area. There is a thread all about them.

When we head down to Dearh Valley in March or April from Oregon I will need to look you up

Here’s the promised photos.

I made some measurements and am eyeing the two bolts holding on the side/removable portion of the bumper. That section has better flatness, and there's also empty space between the rear edge and the grill/lights, leaving plenty of room to come up from underneath with coax and the antenna mount. On the main/inside bumper, the bracket would need to be lifted 0.5" to clear that plastic piece in front of the grill.

I have some metal bar stock here but unfortunately it's only 3/4" wide, so there'd only be 1/4" remaining after drilling out the hole for the post. I'll need to go get wider bar.

How long are those bolts? Is that 1/8" thick stuff you're using there?

Second time is a charm! Having the footwell courtesy light on helped because it made me seriously question the switchbacked and drastically electrical taped section of cord. I found the sealed ends with a bit of digging.

Currently finalizing the antenna position in my mind so I can start routing the two main cables through the engine compartment and, it is hoped, through the passenger grommet.

ARB rear bumper upgrade and showing off the lovely granite crystal colour (yes, colour has a u in it).

My 2021 JLURD. Just picked up fully loaded with nearly every option last week and already added a bunch of mods. Sad to give up my 10 year old JK (also in the pics), but man what a difference in tech and capability. First Diesel- love it!

 

[D90John]

Man O man that is a nice lookin diesel! I have got nearly 10K miles on my 2020 and love driving it every day! I think you will be a very happy person.
