Yeah ,I initially got them , and before I started cutting holes in the seat backs, I decided to put the kabosh on them and covered the back with a moving blanket. The back seat is always down and the blanket is great !

You will still want to air down on the trails so it won’t be so bumpy. Beadlocks aren't needed if you don’t go into single digits for the air pressure. A happy medium would be wheels from method race wheels with bead grip technology. They can be aired down more than standard wheels but not as much as beadlocks. There is no maintenance with them and they aren’t hard to balance.
Thanks, I should probably invest in an air compressor now.

Trimmed the rear fenders and Artec Rear liners over the weekend! Thanks to @Roky for the moral support! This one(s) was a pain in my nuts, for some reason. If you're running the AAL fender retention hardware, you'll hate a portion of this install. See our build thread for more details. Roky was right - in the end, they look great!

Looks great! Nice job on pinch seams as well. Good work there! You had front back of two rigs to do...... I did my rears and then a month later I did the fronts, lol.,. That’s why I didn’t think it was that bad, I had time to re-group, lol.

Installed the Bestop Sunrider Twill Top and front WeatherTech No Drill mud flaps. The Sunrider was way easier to install than the mud flaps. Sunrider took about 40 minutes and had no issues. The Quadratec install video on YouTube was helpful.
The mud flaps took about 1.5 hours and were very difficult to get the holes to line up. Once we got everything lined up, they appear to be securely attached

I'm very interested in how this worked out for you!
I did the same thing and it's made it noticeably quieter. Haven't been out to the freeway to get a decibel rating, but it's gone from having to raise voices to talk at 75mph to being able to talk in a normal voice.

Installed the Rancho differential glide plate over my front diff. It's definitely a heavy piece of metal.

I used amber LEDs on the Roam rockers and love'em. Not quite as piercing as the white
Yea I've had the white for a little over a year. Loved it, gotten lots of compliments on them, but one broker so took the opportunity to swap out for Amber. Probably swap back to white in another year or so. Definitely digging the Amber though.

Got all parts painted up. Hit a hiccup with the CavFab front bumper. Hoping to get some input tomorrow. Started plugging away at the rear bumper between edge trimming and BBQing.
