What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[JasonInDLH]

Not me.

(Language warning.)

 

[From0toJ]

Installed DV8 headlights, Q-tec pre-runner light kit, and put led bulbs in the fog lights, turn signals, drls and swapped side markers for led kit also. (Alright, I lied, that was a couple weekends ago...)

Very nice. Which D rings do you have?

 

[Jaeth]

I like them, I’ve had them a year or so. The one on the passenger kept falling off after a while, it’s just dbl side tape. So I made the commitment to keep it and put a couple small black screws in it. The drivers side also uses the tape but it hooks over the transfer case shifter, so it’s solid.

@jeeeeeeep @Roky

If you're having problems with sticky tape, we are using this one and it works great and don't need the tape. I know Mr Roky is always looking for something to change!

I installed the final design offering of the DI Labs door lock cover with TREAD on my JL.....

Door lock covers keep the mud, sand, ice, water, horse chitt, etc. out of the door lock.

They also cover the shiny lock... and add black contrast to the side/rear of the JL.

For those interested.... DI Labs, today started selling their door lock covers... I'll say no more then that the quality, fit and look is exceptional. They are well worth the $ and look great..

Yes, as a tester of the product ..... I received a free, final design set of these with TREAD.. JUST KNOW, if they were not top notch I would not be posting positive like this/about the product offering...

That requires a different type of taser.

Regan tried to build those types

 

[Dr. RGB]

Just added: Rampage Rock Rage Front Bumper, Quadratec 3/4" D-Ring Shackle Pair with Black D-ring Isolator Kit (Yellow Powder Coat), and some cheap Roadshock 3" LED Flood Lights (from Harbor Freight) with yellow Lamin-x film; all for a whopping $389 plus tax!

I swapped out the silver TR badge for all black. Probably added another 75ft-lbs of torque with that change.

I installed some light duty D-rings, in the event that I decide to use a cargo net as frequently as I did in previous vehicles. Hardware wasn't provided, so after determining that M8x1.25 was the correct thread size & pitch, off to Ace Hdwe I went for some stainless fasteners. The washers came from shed stock.

After I got home, I had to monitor Cat, lest 14 lbs. of paws & claws get him in trouble.

I noticed these tires while I was out. Who hasn't wanted a sweet set of Linglongs for their Wrangler?

Well, I really like their Potstickers, so how bad can the tires be.

Thanks buddy! Just ordered 2 of the 3-piece sets. 1 Gladiator and 1 tread. I'll put the Gladiator on the drivers door and treads on the passenger side and tailgate, to avoid a rear facing soldier. The extra will come in handy in case one gets damaged or swiped off by a tree branch.

Thanks again!

simple, but threw some Mopar aluminum pedals on

how do you like your aluminum pedals? i was thinking of doing the same but wasn't sure if they hold up or become marred over time?

They’re fantastic! Worth the $100+ I spent on Amazon for them. They’re made of high quality aluminum, so I expect them to last quite a long time.

I installed the MOPAR ones on my GC Trailhawk and they held up fantastic.

Definitely recommend them. Install takes some muscle effort, but doesn’t take long. Helps to snazz up the cabin a bit, with the aluminum pedals matching the aluminum trim bits.

Plus, mud looks better on the aluminum than the standard rubber petals

Finished up my bracket for the ground bus bar.

Edit: I've had a few messages about making some brackets. IF there is enough interest, I could explore the option of making both brackets and putting together kits for sale.

I painted and installed the ground bus bar & bracket. Thanks to @spurly for the effort. I used a Honda touch up paint that is a closer match to Firecracker Red than the lighting in the photo suggests.

The label is my own addition.

The bracket doesn't make contact with the pneumatic strut when the hood is closed. There's also fair clearance between the bracket and the factory grounding studs that are now underneath the bracket.

 

[Dale's Jeep]

Installed my winch and took some measurements.

I finally found time to install my Reid knuckles and Steersmarts aluminum tie rod after having them sit in my garage for a few months. My Dynatrac ball joints got installed a couple of months ago with my truss and I have about 1500 miles on them. They’ve already started to feel loose.

Finally a useful spot for the roof.
