anyone get any great deals on anything?

or are people just paying $40 for the privilege to talk to vendors in person? lol
Got kc hilites at 100 bucks off a set. I picked up the flex eta 3 fog/spot beam lights for the rubicon bumper. Unfortunately I had to order it as they had no jl steel bumper specific setups at the show. Also got their lantern that’s normally 38.99 for 15 bucks. Well worth it to me. Plus o stopped and talked with metacloak crew about the bolt on long arm kit and got to see how it is installed. I will be 100% getting that kit next year

I mainly went to network and spend time with my wife and two best friends. We didn’t buy anything crazy this time, though I did talk to the AAL guys and put in an order for their tailgate table and new door pockets.

I wish I could have made it out there but was too busy this weekend. I've been eyeballing that long arm kit for a while. I just need to figure out if the long arm brackets for the rear are going to interfere with my slider mounts in which case I may have to go with the DB3 brackets.

That long arm is awesome for sure. Doesn't work on the 2 door and they won't be doing one as the gas tank is in the way. I'll go with the gamechanger (likely 3.5) once I can save the coin for lift, wheels, and tires all at once (come on powerball). Then I'll see how the 4.10s do with 37s (likely) and make a decision later on 4.88s (probably) at a later date.

Thanks very much for the photo - that helps a bunch. Looks like it may interfere with the frame-mounted sliders I have. If this is the case I'll go with the DB3 brackets. The good thing is that the DB3 is a less complex install so I'm comfortable doing it myself. I'll probably be looking for this around the black-friday timeframe so hopefully there'll be a nice sale.

Count me for three on the sale. I'll probably do the DB3 brackets on the game changer.

Think I'm doing their front and rear bumpers too. Was leaning towards the rock hard front but think over changed my mind.
