What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[Ctt]

Where’d you get um from, they look great, I’d have to do red letters though, kinda my accent color.....

Thanks! Got them directly from roamoffroad. Quality seems to be good. We’ll see after a Utah winter. I originally had the letters red but didn’t Like the look as much. So I painted the back side of it to match my paint color. I’ll switch em back around to red if I get bored of the color.

Sadly, I put the hardtop back on, as it's too hot here to have the top down, at least as far as I'm concerned. After running both tops over the past year, I have to say I vastly prefer the soft top.

I don't like how the hard top creaks and groans, so prefer the louder road noise that comes with the soft top. Not that I'm complaining, still love my jeep, even in the summer!

Nice!.....Yeah, I think that would go good with my other few red things....

I’ve been looking at the Squadron Pros and didn’t know about the lens protectors. Where did you pick them up?

I took her out topless!

My garage is my workshop, so I don’t have the space to hang a hoist for my hardtop. So with the inspiration and ideas of a few others I have designed my version, of a portable (moveable) hoist. By removing a couple of the bolts the whole thing folds up for storage, which was essential. I used simple 2x4 and one piece of 2x8, $22 hand wench off amazon, casters, plus a bunch of spare hardware I had lying around. The doors are hung on simple eyelet lag screws wrapped in vinyl tape.

GREAT idea! Nice job in construction. I would like to do something similar.

Doors off for the first time. Was shocked at how easy they came off, first time Jeep owners will never know the struggle.
Now I need a bigger garage or some space to hang these suckers.

Mine came with these as well, my dealer put them on for me but gave me the original lugnuts in the packaging. I've been meaning to put the non-locking lugnuts back on. I've seen people on the trail fighting with locking lugnuts because the indented pattern got clogged with mud that had hardened. Along the same lines, I have never heard of anyone getting their tires stolen, yet I know several people who have had their catalytic converter stolen so it's not like I live in some crime free area. I'd leave the locking lugnut on the spare, just in case, but I do wonder... is wheel/tire theft still a thing?

The more I think about it, the more I agree with you. I think I am going to swap back to the non-locking lug nuts on all but the spare too. The trail group I have went out with requires no locking lug nuts for the reasons you stated.

i'm not in any area for tire theft either. i figured the lug nuts can sit on the shelf and collect dust or just put them on. i have a feeling that i would not be able to use them when i get a different set of wheels.

Ordered my UPR catch can... and also received my tube doors but haven’t had time to install them. Ugh. Sucks. Maybe tomorrow.

 

[Ochoa1801]

I've got one sitting in my garage closet. I guarantee there's someone in your area that has a take off when they installed a winch that would give it to you for free.

Hello can you give me the number part ?

I haven't seen any threads on this and it is too simple to start one so here's what I did to my Jeep this weekend.

Been using the rear alot for storage and the soft top rear window is still pretty new and very tight. I don't mind the actual tightness because it will wear just fine with time and sun but I must have scratched my hands a dozen times by now on the sharp as !$*# corners of the part of the rear soft top window that secures it down.

My old TJ had rounded edges on these suckers but I guess the engineers skipped on this step with the premium soft top.

So I finally got fed up and took a pair of scissors and just snipped the sharp edges. Didn't even have to do any fancy rounding. Just a simple cut and now it is smooth and will no longer scratch my hands up!
