Did anybody notice the price for mopar items on Quadratec went up? Like a lot? Even the soft tops that aren’t available (almost $200).
If their price went up, then their wholesale cost went up. Just about most of the retailers like them sell pretty close to MSRP for MOPAR stuff. I suspect it has to do with their wholesale pricing not being as competitive as what the dealers get or MOPAR forces them by contract to sell at or near MSRP to give the dealership more opportunity to discount and get business.

I just received mine today. Just need a JL now. How was the install?

Easy install. About an hour.
No real tips or tricks... pretty straight forward. I opted not to remove the carpet between the rear cargo area that snaps into place under the rear seats as the directions indicate. I installed the bar on top, torqued to spec., no fitment issues with the gap hider.

Tinted the front to match the back :)

And installed the rear seat recline for a JK. Did anyone else have problems with the smaller square spacers getting the new bolt threaded properly?

I had issues with the driver side small block. I also left the larger blocks out and factory bolts. This actually gives you more recline as your angle of the seat actually stays the same with all the kit installed. It only rotates the complete seat assembly back as a solid unit. Leaving the front blocks out reclines your seat back approx 2" and leave the base of the seat at the same plane it was originally on. This also allows your seat when laid down to have its original flatness as your seat back still lays down on the seat bottom.

My factory antenna was rattling at highway speeds so I bought a stubby rubber one. That bent in half at neighborhood speeds. Here is antenna attempt 3. It is the same style as the OEM version, just shorter and black instead of chrome.

Just received my EVO MFG 3.5in front and rear plush springs, my EVO MFG raised rear trackbar bracket, and my Rough Country front adjustable trackbar. Will get installed Monday. :rock: Right now I have the EVO MFG 2.5in spacer kit with front lower control arms, drop brackets, and shock extensions. The photos of my truck is the 2.5in for those who want to see how the 2.5in spacer lift looks. Next will be steering stabilizer and shocks. Any input on King Shocks vs Falcon Shocks and steering stabilizers? This isn't a rock crawler so I'm looking for maximum on road comfort.

I like your spare delete. Where did you buy it and do you have a model #?

Explored a bit of urban norcal this last weekend. Next week I'll be installing cyclone rock lights and a warn winch. Still waiting on the first set of mopar lights to be delivered. Hoping to keep it looking mostly factory, since I'll be using it for backcountry camping and not much else.

This is a fun thread I’ve seen on a few other forums. Can be anything from mods to drives, to washes, etc. pictures are always a plus!

So what did you do to your Jeep today?

I got the email that my window sticker for my original order (Feb 3) is now available. Had been stuck in Marion for weeks when Jeep mysteriously switched my VIN and VON to a new build. So not really what I did to my Jeep today, but definitely wondering what FCA has been doing to my original Jeep order for the last 3 months....
