What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[tjeeper]

This week I added rock lights.

Fixed the rear bumper lights to work on either a switch or when in reverse.

Clearanced the crossover exhaust to fix the rubbing on my Artec skid. I has a bit hard on it my last trip out.

Added an ARB compressor and MORE mount. Still need to order a custom stainless hose to connect it to the back of the Jeep.

Nice! What are the details of the lift?

i've had this exhaust installed for about 500 miles, its a little quieter than i hoped for, but it sounds really good above 3K (i have a manual trans). I felt that with it being half the price of the non resonated tread catback, this one was the way to go, however i was kinda shocked at how much quieter it seems from AWE's youtube videos compared to the non res tread catback.

they do say that it takes about 1,000 miles to break in, im only about halfway through that. the tone is really nice, just nothing special at idle/rolling through the neighborhood.

do NOT follow their torque advice for the OEM ball style clamp/bolt that you have to re use. its the clamp that connects the awe catback to the factory system after the cats/loop pipe. I broke that bolt, and with how weird that clamp is, i couldnt get a seal using a bolt from a hardware store. i had to order a new clamp through mopar that came with the bolt, $50 later. just snug it up with a standard ratchet

I notice you said you you have a manual. When I get on it, a warning shoots up on the dash about no shift to 1st gear allowed. Can you shut that off? So annoying. And exhaust sounds good!

Installed a trailrax pak rax. It's a pretty nice setup and I didn't modify anything.

Not sure it's a real issue for many of you, but if anyone is interested, the pak rax will fit under teraflex hard top handles. Maybe in the future I might drill some holes to mount in between the handles but for now it works.

Also dont use your only two brain cells when working on the Jeep
Took another look at where the holes line up and it fits in between the handles

I could be wrong, but the tires in your pics look like the Wildpeak MT01 not the AT3W. Just in case you paid for something else I wanted to make sure. I just bought the MT01 as well.

what....

OK, so I went through every quote I had been given. Every single one said MTs. I swear with Christ as my witness I asked for AT3Ws.

You know what, my wife and I both drove it and liked it. I’m going to chalk this up as a happy mistake. I should have caught it on the quote though...

Added a Tazer Lite, nice to have to change your tire sizing, but best of all you can give a huge middle finger straight up to the ESS once and for all!

Similar to my setup. I moved it because the fridge blocks it coming out of the compressor. ( I assume you have the same issue)

Here are the parts I used

The fitting will get quite blistering hot on the compressor. I added a .5 meter (18") stainless Teflon hose, a remote quick disconnect, and dust cover to make air line hookup easier and cooler.

Hey bro.... I haven’t looked into these compressors in depth, but thinking of going this route. Doing the portable Viair right now.
As for the wiring, I don’t suppose it’s as easy as plugging into the rear cigarette lighter..

I had front upper and lower adjustable control arms installed yesterday. I went with Core 4x4 T3. Will be getting my alignment done next week and adjusted as needed. Then will install Falcon Nexus EF 2.2 Steering Stabilizer.

 

[WilhelmSR]

Installed my Westin Rockrails. The first one was a PIA but after trial and error, the second one only took 5 minutes. Also installed the longer lower control arms since it was on a lift already.

My tip off was the M/T on the sidewalls. Hey, you got some awesome tires. My first set were the same in 33s, and they rode great in and off road.

Unfortunately, it's not that easy. Each compressor has its own 10g fused power lead and ground wires that has to go directly on the battery. And a smaller gauge "kicker" wire for the built-in relays, that I wired to the factory aux bundle under the glove box. I opted to use the "hot with ignition" wire because I'd rather have the motor and charging system running while using the higher Amp accessories like the compressor and winch. Also, the harness that comes with the ARB twin compressor isn't long enough to reach the batteries from the cargo area, so I needed an 11' extension that I got from up/down air.

I'm very pleased with it and having 100% duty cycle is nice. This compressor also has a built-in cooling fan.
