Apparently im doing nothing to my jeep today. That's my driveway without a 2018 JLUR, because while I was mowing the lawn and didn't see, the wife decided she wanted to take it. Now im left with a Nissan Rogue for the day. Yay me.

Trying to dry it out today. It fucking poured on us last night. No top, no windows, no doors. It was soaked on the inside.

Been there, done that. It sucks! Jeep smelt like a dirty gym sock for a while.
make sure you pull you plugs so it can drain out

Few more goodies showed up yesterday. Ride is even more amazing now paired with a proper shock for the RK coils, and added a touch more down travel :rock:
Maxed out my hi lift, still had almost 3/4ā€ shock travel left before the tires would lift

Love your seats! Where did you get them from and would you recommend them?
Thank you! They are Katzkin. I had them installed through Jeep since they own the legal rights to the JL Rubicon logo. I like them. I think the quality is slightly lower than factory leather, but thats just my opinion. I still like the red better than the factory black or tan options.

Is that a fixed control arm?
Yah I decided to go fixed lower in hopes itā€™s less maintenance during our winter months. Looks like Iā€™m still going to be cutting the axle mount, still had bit more shock travel and I was just about to touch the bracket
Going to go test out the full flex tonight. Our post office has a loading dock with a nice retaining wall that is like a rti ramp

Sweet... what is part number for the shocks, or name of them? Did they just come out with them?

Actually most people in that second link I provided, which is 15 pages of people that have the lift and provided feedback, most if not all are saying, better than stock.
Iā€™m still catching up and reading... long thread!

Another guy pmā€™d me and said he was super happy with his Enduro setup also.

Question for you others: would it be ok if I purchased this lift kit first/separately from the tires? Meaning - could I run my stock Sahara wheels and tires with this lift kit??? The lift kit alone will set me back a few $$$ so Iā€™m trying to pace myself. If I did the wheels and tires at the same time, my wife would never approve lol.

Just a few modifications for summer time!

The before and after is so drastic it's like a completely different jeep! ā˜ŗ

Mods list:
2.0T, Lockers front & rear, sway bar disconnects, high clearence fenders, 8.4 premium Alpine, LEDs all around, Steel bumpers andasome other creature comforts as well.

Oh yeah and we got a new paint job and some decals!

Oh and we kept the 35s... But here's to 37s soon!

So you traded in your 18 or 19 Sport for a 2.0T Rubicon????
