I installed the seat slammers from DDI on just the driver's seat and I'm blown away by the difference! I'm 6'5 and the JLU has always been a bit tighter to get in and out of then my older Jeeps but the seat slammers are a game changer.

I should really slide the seat a bit more forward and raise it a few clicks with the adjustment lever because I now have to lean forward a bit to touch the dash or reach the shifter but I'm leaving it all the way back because it's a novelty for now as I just installed the slammers so having the Jeep going from feeling somewhat tight to now too big is fun.

Every mirror had to be adjusted and the increased headroom is hard to believe.

I got used Falcon shocks off a forum member .. swap out just the rears today , doing the fronts next week. I had to compress the shocks and use duct tape to keep them compressed as I line up the holes and remove the duct tape .. took about hour to do.. can’t wait to see how they compare to the mopar lift kit shocks .

Would love to hear your thoughts as you use them on different surfaces. At some point I'll change out my stocks and will be seeking which ones provide a comfortable ride, but still perform well off-road.

I had ordered Arc door hangers on Amazon for a second try, and they were supposed to be in this weekend so we could have some doors off fun. Alas some idiot at the post office has once again put my package on a truck heading away from me :swear: :angry: Really starting to dislike postal workers, though I sometimes appreciate when they help out by pre-opening my mail for me.

Look great. Any chance you remember where those blue dials on your dash are from?
Sure - got them here, when I put in a large order of random accessories that slowly made its way from China while my jee p was being built in Ohio 😅

Note that the dials are nice to the touch and fit well, but the color is not a great match to Hydro or the 4xe blue; it’s more violet-y.

I have a granite crystal metallic 4xe and these are a closer match to the blue colour. The width of them also matches the full depth of each knob. I'm quite pleased. They're from Amazon.ca so try searching Amazon.com for similar.

I'll have to post some pictures. I picked up my Hyrdo Blue 4xe Rubicon last weekend. So far, I've put on XR wheels and 315 tires. XR Fender Flares, Satin Black Grill, Mopar three hoop bull bar, tailgate reinforcement, slush mats, and rear cargo mat.

Today will be nerf steps (my kids can't get in it! LOL), my hotheads liner for my SOT, and my quadlock phone charging mount.
...still waiting on those photographs!

Stretched my winch line. Pulled against my F-150 and ran the Warn wired remote from my driver's seat keeping tension with foot lightly on the brake in neutral.
I did that a few weeks ago. I'd never done it before, so I recruited my neighbor with craploads of winching experience with his Unimog to assist. I'm still looking for an excuse to use mine.

Yes, his Unimog is absolutely insane.
