We started installing the Diabolic Slipstream this afternoon. The flap behind the leather seats is a true PITA to remove. We’ll finish tomorrow and I’ll post some photos.

The finish and packaging are top-notch.

Installed the Mopar Tailgate Table, went with Mopar as I knew it would work with the Trail Rail system. Seems sturdy, well designed and has zero rattles! Will see lots of use on trails!

Also installed the 8.4" Uconnect I bought months ago, happy to say it was ridiculously easy-everything powered right up, everything worked and it only took Sirius about 5 minutes to transfer my service. I had planned to wait until I did the main audio upgrade to install but thought I should make sure the 8.4 unit worked first so if I have any troubleshooting to deal with during the install, I would know it was not due to a defective head unit!

I am nearing the end of 'planned' mods/upgrades...However, I took a friends JLUR for a quick spin today after he installed 4.88 gears-I was really surprised at how much quicker it was than mine. We both have the same 35" BFG KO2 tires, both have winches & skids plus his is a four door...May have to seriously consider a 4.88 upgrade, that was fun!

I did the same last week. I was able to install without removing the flap, but I did flex the driver side enough that I broke the clip. I agree, top notch product.

Installed a Warn EVO VR 10S, changed my hooks from black to red, and installed the Factor 55 fairlead and flatlink. It was a good day.

Not sure; my bumper is an early OEM MOPAR before they switched to the current MOPAR bumper everyone wants with the removable end caps. My bumper came with a winch plate, so maybe it’s the OEM plate? Either way, it works amazing. Installation was a (heavy) breeze but that bumper sucks.

I think your bumper is actually the "mid-width" Mopar Off-road bumper, which came out after the one with the removable ends, but is put on as an accessory.

I installed the Smittybilt tailgate reinforcement and tire carrier last nigh. I am going to fab a different bracket for the license plate/3rd brake light. But this thing is much more stout that I thought it would be. I am far from a Smittybilt fan, but my mind may be changing. I give it a 9/10.

Earlier this week I installed a 10” Baja Design wide driving amber light bar. I’m using the Homelink garage door opener to operate the lights via a RF relay.

That's brilliant. I've never seen anyone use an RF relay like that.
