put in the genesis twin battery kit and didnt blow myself up. or the jeep. was quite proud of me. and ran the wires from the battery to the new Engle fridge. just have to have the ends put on and all that hooked up.... but, then discovered for some reason my 2 arb fuses/wires for the compressor have melted a little bit. so now must replace. its always something.

I drove her after being locked inside from a nasty case of Covid. Yellow Fury and I went to go see my dad’s grave, and we even brought my rescue dog on the trip!

I also put these lock covers on…I’ve actually had them on for a while, it was one of the first appearance mods I did!

I get that the standard locks are chrome, and it’s pretty….but the black lock covers make her look damn sexy! 💛💛⚡⚡🤘🤘

Jeep wouldn’t remote start after couple days sitting. Then wouldn’t manual start. Had to jump the Jeep a couple times.
Was getting the auto start stop error in my dash.
So, I pulled the aux battery negative cable off the main battery, wrapped the end of it with electrical tape, and tied it down beside main battery. Pulled 42 fuse.
Hopefully this fixes my problem.

Your main probably won't last much longer. When one goes bad it usually takes the other with it.

I installed the 2024 front grill to my 2021 JLUR and had a local shop install a 1.5” leveling kit from Teraflex shout out to Outlaw Offroad in Greensboro N.C.

What's so strange is how at first I didn't know what to think of the new grill when it was released for the '24 model year, but the more I saw it in person the more I liked it. Then I got a 2024 XR added to our 2018 Sahara and I've grown to like it a lot. One positive that I'll be interested to see the difference from, is the larger openings when it comes to airflow, particularly in south Texas heat. Things were cooling down when it was delivered on Halloween. Either way, I like 'em both, so good either way.

I hit a bump today and got the first taste of death wobble in this Jeep. At 42k, similar to my last one. So I've ordered a JKS track bar and Fox stabilizer which worked great last time.

Was on this past Sunday morning in Ft. Myers Beach…proved (to any naysayer) that my modified Diode Dynamic Trailer Hitch light to also be a Rear Fog Light was useful and needed, especially here in FL…

How foggy it was:

This is WITH my lights on and fog lights on and Rear Fog Light off:

And for those wondering, I voided my warranty doing this but felt my and my kids safety was more important than a warranty for something only $160.

And these damn IPhone camera are so good, these pics do in person view injustice. To put in perspective, the JLUR was engulfed completely in fog when I was taking these pictures.

Saw a you tube video for chase lights that attach to the window hinge covers........
I like that, looks clean. Do you have a link for the ones you bought? I am not quickly seeing a 4 or 5 led brake light like that one.
Do you have a photo from further back showing all your brake lights on?
