What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[dragonslayer]

Is it possible to go too far with the modifications? l mean Is there a tipping point like with plastic surgery? Everything looks great and then you add more thing.....and one more and then another until even you start giving it the "confused puppy head tilt" and thinking yeah probably shouldn't have done that! lol Just a bit of humor for your Friday.

HUMOR? I thought this was my "intervention"!

Removed the steel bumper end caps, removed the doors, removed the front roof panels and folded the windshield flat, this thing is just too awesome, it's gonna be the best summer yet!!! Look in the back seat and you can see my little boy's pretty happy with the Jeep too! He always says "blue Jeep blue Jeep" with a huge smile on his cute little face!!! Blessed...

And "HE", my friend, is the joy of it all. Enjoy!

You have the wrong fairlead installed... the one you have is a hawse fairlead for synthetic rope, but you need to have a roller fairlead for cable. It should have come with your winch...

Not the case anymore.

Warn includes a Hawse no matter what you buy. But this one is steel as opposed to the aluminum ones I’ve seen out there

Got my CB Radio installed! Took some time to route the cable but it works fantastically! The only issue I have is that the bolt is right against the tire... So until the ACE Standalone Tire Carrier comes out, I'll be running it like this.

This is only true for the VR series of warn winches. The zeon and zeon platinum use a roller fairlead for the steel cable equipped winches.

I've been thinking about those.... Looks real sharp. How's the overall coverage?

HogDude, the front sill coverage is excellent, but the rear coverage is to small.

Got it. Thanks. Guess I need to consider some xpel film on the rear then.

I kind of feel I jumped the shark with these lights....

Also, nice first aid kit and extinguisher mounts. Where did you get them?

I found them on the Quadratec site. I ordered first aid supplies on Amazon.

How is the custom paint on the flares holding up? Any peeling or chipping? Do you think painting the entire flare on a sport would hold up over time?

Hey there sorry, was this asking about my JLUR? The painted hinges? If so, they are awesome and I'm so glad I did it. Zero chipping so far and zero peeling. I did it mainly because I already had a ton of chips on the front of the hinges. I can't see any chips in the black rubber now.
I actually thought about painting the front surface of the rear flare for the same reason...

Rotations and changing tires if I get a flat are going to be a pain in the a$$, but hey it looks good and frees up some visibility in the back. Got a pretty good deal on it too.

Spare tire cover

 

[Luco]

Put some Rigid Ignite LED backup lights on and put my Alien Sunshade on.

How did you wire the rigid?

So, I’ve been wondering about this. How does it impact tire removal
