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.

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?

YES!
But after enough time, patience, and salty-sailor language they finally threaded in!

interesting, mine were being a royal pain (seemed like I almost needed to file the lower portion of the bracket to line up), so to expedite I put a few washers between. I will need to revisit when the weather is a bit cooler.

We took our JL to Houston Truck and Jeep Fest. Took several pictures, but here are a few of the JL's that were there.

Anyone happen to know if this bumper is available to the public yet? I found one similar on Westin's site (59-80125), but the ends look a bit different, unless it's just the angle of the picture on their website.

I have the same one. I have had no issues with it and I don't seem to have a loss of reception either.

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.

What do you plan to do in the event of a flat?

Installed new Mopar branded floor mats, Husky Liner cargo mat, and the Tazer JL that showed up yesterday,= (enabled the Auto Start Stop over ride, Winch mode, backup camera mode) More to come once the lift and 37's get installed.

This is just temporary. I plan to get a body mounted tire carrier once DV8 releases theirs or I will genright if I don't like DV8. I'm just driving on luck that I can make it a few more months without a spare.

Installed the Mopar tailgate reinforcement kit. Happy to report no interference with the Smittybilt spare tire relocator. Pretty straight forward on the install.

Also threw on some Spidertrax 1.75” wheel spacers to get the stance I was after.

Love the stance, can you please post more photos of more angles.

Thank you,
