Yes, I got the light mount as well for future Baja lights. Damn you guys for making me spend money. 😁

The Baja Designs LP4 Pros sit snuggly under that bar when mounted directly to the bumper. But a pair of XL80's should fit on the maximus bracket. Just sayin'.

I think I'm going with the amber squadron SAE to help out in rough weather on the road and wire them to Aux 4. I'm get'n old and can't see squat anymore 😕

Having both white and amber bd lights, I've got to say that the amber is great for more than just snow, fog, and dust. Even on a clear night, it gives a noticeably higher definition lighting effect. The SAE Squadrons seem to only come in the wide cornering pattern, which is great for near field lighting and being able to use them in traffic. You might also think about an additional pair of amber Squadron Pros with the combo lense for some extra throw on dark roads without others around to blind.

Your Jeep looks great, buddy!

Thanks! I gotta agree about the amber. Just for fun, I put the amber film over the stock fogs and it make a hell of a difference. I was like...

If you don't mind the suggestion, a set of the amber Squadron SAE in your fog pockets and a set of amber Squadron Pros with the combo spot/wide cornering pattern mounted on the Maximus-3 bracket under the bull bar. That would cover all bases. A cutoff line for traffic and a full coverage blanket of light at the ready.

Installed the Springtail tailgate table, the GME UHF antenna and a 13" radio antenna (ready for the snorkel later this weekend, I hate the way the metal ones tap on snorkels). 2 days of ownership and the mods are underway. The UHF radio will go in with the rest of the elctrical, will do that all at once, so UHF, brake controller and dual battery setup in the rear tub.

2 months to break in? i broke mine in within 4 days lol. Couldn't wait to inspect, clean it up, and change fluid so I could have fun with it.

Dang! You went for all the options! What are your thoughts on the molle panels? Are there two panels (one for each section of the deck) or just the one? I saw you had some things loaded up on it already, do you feel the items hang too low? Did you happen to notice if the deck feels stiffer now or anything? I keep thinking that I need to order these and the foam pads. Did you get the medium grey pads? Yours looks quite different than what is shown on the website, I like your image better.

I also lowered the tires to the recommended pressures on the door sticker, rides so much better.

Dropping the tires from 47 front, 46 rear to 37 all around made a huge difference and surprised the dealer didn't correct the tire pressure during PDI.
My new JLU was delivered with 42ish PSI all the way around (one of the things I brought with me for my own PDI was a tire pressure gauge.)

Having joined the forum on the day I ordered the vehicle, I already knew to set the tires to 37 PSI cold (meaning just the drive home from the dealer was a bit squirrelly). After the pressure was reset, my Jeep drives as sweetly as it should.


I installed new speakers

I've seen several posts where the sound bar was fully removed for speaker replacements. Is removal compulsory for this job, or does it just make things a bit easier for the installer?
