5,937 mi. on my JL. Did a tire rotation.

Dam, those lugs were tight.

When I put my Gorilla Locking System Lugs on a couple of months ago, I torqued to the FCA, recommended 130 ft/lb. This time I went to 125 ft /lb.

2018 JLUR!
Installed a Magnaflow rock crawler exhaust with my 3 year old.

How was the installation and the most important question the sound! I really want to get the same one but want to make sure is not really loud, just nice and deep...

@Jo's Jeep

I have had a few JK's (2dr) since 2007. I installed Wet Okole's in each of them. Terrific coverings ... fit / wear is exceptional.

When I sold each of those JK's, I put the used Wet Okole's on Craigslist and recooped more then half of what they cost me each time. 8-)

Got my JL with Leather. First Wrangler, I have ever had with factory leather. If it had cloth, I would be going Wet Okole.

Thanks for the pic of the Wet Okole fabricating area. I was always curious about that.

Looks great!

You sure you do not want to put a locking type pin on the drop hitch of yours. They get snagged pretty easily by nitwits if you don't have one.

Looking at your post / pics, I said to myself... looks really good. Only thing that I would see me doing is changing the chrome lugs to black lugs.

Those wheels, your color JL would really look great with black lugs. I know going to black really set my Bright White JL off so to speak.

Gorilla Locking System has a set of lugs / black that look great. Splined lugs, gives you protection from nitwits.

With the cooler Las Vegas weather (i.e. below 100F :) ) I decided it was time to go topless, so my project earlier this week was to install my Harken Hoister. I couldn’t be happier with the finished project.

I received notice that my Jeep finally shipped after ordering on 6/8. To celebrate, I ordered full weathertech mats and trunk liner,
8.4 screen protector, and the soft top storage bag. Also ordered about $200 in car detail products.
I don't know if this will be your first Wrangler, but if it is, you're gonna find yourself doing an awful lot more celebrating... ;)

Thanks. Yes I’d like to add the black lug nuts, I agree would look way better. Thanks for the link. My last Jeep had blacked out rims and I loved them, these definitely need the black lug nuts.

They are my old JK ones. Attached with 3m double sided tape and bought black screw covers for where the screws would have gone. They actually are exactly the right width and don’t interfere with my safety group. They seem pretty solid so far.
