The table is awesome. No rattle at all. It’s secured very well to the tailgate and you can adjust the latches tightness for when it is stowed upright. I’d much rather support a mom and pop shop than Mopar. Also, I had to email Doc and the personalization he provided was a great touch.
That looks amazing, the tow hooks did you cut the plate under the bumper to fit or did it have the opening.
Installed winch on Maximus3 base plate with Factor55 hawser and flat end. Also installed Maximus3 tow hooks.
Ha...been there brotha but it does look good assembled?Today I am going to assembling my EVO roof rack, holy sh** that is a lot of parts, but finally work my way there. Now I just need a second pair of hands to lift it up to the roof.
BTW: free Habor Freight tarp for the win.
Let’s see the final wizard reveal!Had some protective (Xpel clear) areas wrapped, headlights, fog lights, turn signals, front sloping part of the front fenders, front of rear fenders, and the vertical door columns inside the Jeep where one might smack that area when taking off a seat belt. Also, had the flat black wrap added to the engine hood, with a final rendering of a Wizard forthcoming...a local artist is working from an original design sketch of mine and had mother of pearl inlay applied to the fretboard of my guitar. The Wizard will go in the center of my hood wrap. Added piping to the channels on front and rear fenders (my thanx to RubiconSS). I included the 2nd sketch of the Wizard, the face still needs final shading and texturing and the beard will be white with grey and black features in it.
I don't know about you, but the mounting plates on the side are PITA to put on. The instruction says put the bolt inside towards outside, I guess the reason is so extrude part of the bolt will not damage the top. But I absolutely hate working with button head screw and allen keys, at one point I almost plan a trip to Lowes to get some real bolts and nuts.
Thanks...No rubbing. There is very little room for flexing. Will be adding a lift in the near future. Back spacing is 4.75 with -6 offset.@mr187 any rubbing w/ no lift? what backspacing? looks good
So, I’ve never used plastidip before and I keep seeing how folks have used it to black out the key hole (only chrome pieces on the entire Jeep). I’d like to give it a shot but is plastidip forgiving? I mean how much needs to be tapped off? In my mind I am thinking spray paint, but from what I’ve read plastidip seems easier and more forgiving to work with. Thanks for any advice any of my fellow Jeepers might have out there.Plastidipped the trailrated badge and the key holes... next up the Jeep emblems and possibly the door hinges. It was pretty simple, just put some hobby paper around it and then taped it off. There is a plastic/rubber layer behind the emblem an the locks which plastidip doesn't stick too. So I used a hobby knife to trim off the access and there you go. It looks a little spotty from the rain but doesn't look that way in person.
You just peel it off. So yes very forgiving. Tape off the area around what you want to paint. Several layers are highly recommended so that peeling it off is easier. Lots of you tube videos out there.
