SARGE GREEN Wrangler JL Club

[Mtpockets]

Hey fellow Sarge Green JL/U owners, I am in a dilemma wanting to name my Jeep. I am within a few names and hope you can help. It will pretty much be stock for a couple of years. It is an 80th Anniversary 4 door with a premium soft top (which I go topless every chance I get). Let me know your favorites, here are the choices:
1. The Beast
2. The Green Monster
3. Jade
4. Booger
5. Loki
6. Hornet
7.???

Loki sounds cool.

Almost forgot, I fabricated a housing to relocate the backup camera, in order to install the jerry can.

Nice. Would you make me one? (Seriously.)

YES! I would like one too! So I can use my JK bike rack. Let me know what the cost would be.

Oh man, that was quite a project. It’s not so much the camera housing, as it is getting access to the camera (see pic). You need to remove the spare tire mount from the tailgate, then remove the metal bracket from inside the mount. After that you can remove the plastic insert to which the camera is attached. I found a couple You-Tube videos on how to accomplish this. I never had to cut the camera wire or add a wire extension. You then need to cut off the long nose oem camera mount flush off the metal bracket and spare tire mount. Put that all back together and route the camera out the top of the mount. I bought a Quadratec Rear Camera Spare Tire Bracket (see pic). I built the housing from some thin sheet metal (see template pic). From my local hardware store I special ordered some #3 x 1-1/4” mach. screws, nuts, washers. I used a 5/8 ID x 7/8 OD rubber grommet to which to secure the camera lens. I’ll try to take some pictures inside the housing to show how the housing, camera, and Quadratec bracket are fastened together using spacers to create a solid fit.

Thank you! It took five and a half months to get; but it was worth the wait in the end!

Here's a side side profile pic with the half doors.

Really nice and well done!

Question - what did you do with the red dash and stitching on the interior?

Thank you!

I really, really wanted to ditch the red accents inside. I very heavily considered custom leather seat inserts from leatherseats.com; if you talk to them on the phone, they have a Forest Green stitching, which I got a sample of, and is a pretty close match to Sarge Green. The problem was that it was prohibitively expensive to get the steering wheel stitching redone, and I didn't want to have green stitching everywhere, and then red stitching on the steering wheel.

Anyway, my halfway solution was to ditch the red plastic trim pieces for these: https://www.allmoparparts.com/sku/6ac261r3ad-6ac241r3aa.html

So I at least got rid of the primary red; now it's just the subtle stitching and etching in the seats; I don't mind it!

Just got her lifted with a MetalCloak 3.5" Gamechanger and Falken 37s. IT'S HUGE!! I'm not sure it'll even fit in the garage.

Sgt. Beavis..... Uh huh huh, You said "IT'S HUGE!!"

Looking good though! I like the bronze wheels on the Sarge!
