What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[BbyGrlJJ]

Poor girl has a torn ACL. She's only 6. She gets extra pampering from us now.

Here is our Babygirl laying with mom on her pillow, resting her leg as best as possible....

Rainy day, so the doors stayed on. But I got a shot of the grill on the daylight!

Now that's awesome

What did you use specifically. Very interested in the steering wheel. Paint or something else?
Looks really good so you must be patient with a steady hand

For the steering wheel I thought about taking the steering wheel apart to get the bezel off to paint it but didn't want to mess with the airbag. My Jeep dealer would sell me the black steering wheel bezel for wholesale and install it for total of $140.
I decided to go a lower cost route - a company on Ebay had ABS covers for the air vents, speedometer and odometer, steering wheel spokes and the transmission shifter. They didn't have black so bought their carbon fiber and painted them satin black. The steering wheel spoke covers did not cover the chrome ring around the wheel so I used 1" 3M black vinyl to wrap the parts the covers didn't cover. If someone looked very closely they could see little points of chrome.
Overall the 11 pieces came to $100 (4 different sets around $25 each) and were at a company in New York so took 4 days to get here not the current 8 weeks from China.

Not so much in the colors. I'm retired military, three percenter (III%), so I went with the three stripes. I almost painted all pf the inserts, but wanted something different. War paint, I suppose.

Finally got the Mopar 2" lift, Nitto 37"-12.50"-17" mounted on Method MR305 installed. Man I think it turned out really well. Now if I could just do more than just grocery store runs in it. Here are the before and after pics.

Had to google that one. Hadn’t heard of that one. Learn something new.

Don't believe everything you read. Lots of misinformation out there.

She is! She's our first and awesome! SUCH a good cat. Poor thing is in the vet today: last week, she was running around crazy and hurt her leg, so she's limping right now. Poor girl.

Hope she gets better fast!

I spent some father-son time with my two boys installing a winch (have to adjust the fairlead tomorrow-ran out of light).

Maybe a cou-ke amber fogs on the outside - the deer will see me coming

I purchased the DRL/Turn Signal LED's direct from Recon Truck Accessories.

I purchased the Side Marker LED's from Northridge 4x4.

They weren't difficult to install. The toughest part was separating the top of the Turn Signal housings from the underside of the fenders. They're held on with a double-sided 3M automotive tape, which is very strong. When you reinstall, I suggest that you remove all of the existing tape, which will be stuck to the fenders. Scrape off as much as you can and clean the surfaces with alcohol until there is no more residue. Then apply new strips of the 3M tape (not included) to the top of the new Turn Signal LED's, prior to assembly. I've included a link to the 3M tape that I purchased from Amazon, in case you need some.
