What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[melendez69]

I went ahead and made it look pretty darn silly!!!!!!!!
Let the tear down begin.

If you like it, that's all that matters. Hell, I like watermelon, too.

I did everything except pulling the orange wire out of the harness and flashing the drive.

There was a problem in that i messed up the 10 pin connector and had to order another one. I just got the new one today and they can’t get me in to look at it until next week.

I’m trying to hook up a CB Radio for Jeepend which starts tomorrow. If i can’t figure out the Aux switch problem, I’ll just pull the power hookups to the battery for the weekend. not my preference though.

Ok, so you installed, & had the dealer flash (I misunderstood). Have you combed through this forum for similar problems?

Fred Beans in Doylestown really good guys there. They even recommended the AEV. They said 6 hours don’t know if that is with an alignment, and the Jeep would still be covered under warranty just not the lift parts. Jeff Daniel’s Jeep recommended AEV the Mopar is just rebranded lift and over priced for what it is. They said should be 1 day. For the lift and alignment and labor $2,100. Talked to RubiTrux for 20+ minutes they explained both lifts in detail. They said they used the Mopar lift in the beginning because there wasn’t any other choices. They haven’t had any problems with them. I will probably go to the Chiropractor first and do the lift myself.

I tell you what...I’ll help you install your lift if you help me install my steel rockhard bumpers. They’ve been in my shed for 4 months because they’re too damn heavy for me to lift by myself.

I hear you on Jeff Daniels. They quoted me a grand for install. There’s an off-road shop near me in Horsham called Busted Knuckle. Seem like a good group of guys. I think they wanted $800 to install a lift. Truth is I’m too cheap to pay and will probably just install the lift myself again.

Got any other pictures from different angles?

Here are a couple of the LOD slider I will get some image of the rack later

I’m trying to get my switches to work. No power. It’s so disappointing. I have checked my connections and the back of the switch box. Also installed a 10 amp fuse where one would go if it were factory installed. The dealer has already flashed and added them to the control panel.
Any other suggestions? Thanks

Check your ground.

Ground it out on another post.

The post I was using (the one from the instructions) had paint all over it.

Use a different ground and you should be fine.

I ended up using the one by the Air Box.

It’ll work buddy! Did for me anyways.

Take a wire brush and scuff the post up a tad beforehand if there is overspray paint on it.

You want solid contact!!

Another Marine coming up to serve his country, I reckon.

Just like his Dad.

Well done, Pops. And thanks.

Haha thanks buddy!

If that’s what he wants to do I’m not gunna stop him! I might suggest joining as an officer but what would be the fun in that LOL

 

[WES IV]

Yeah, but I'm having trouble getting the clips into place.

Finished putting in Sunshield by dropping the windshield.

 

[WES IV]

If you still have trouble, I can tell you that dropping the windshield is really not as much trouble as I expected. I dropped mine to make it easier to mount my 67 Designs JL Rail system on dash.

Don't believe people who tell you you need a special wiper arm removal tool... mine came off super easy with a little wiggling while pulling. Pull wiper arm caps off, pull wiper arms, undo 4 bolts with the provided Jeep wratchet, and fold down the windshield. Whole thing was <10 minutes and made the install SO much easier. Convinced now that I've done it once, I could get my time down to <5 minutes.

Followed your instructions and everything is okay. Thanks!

Plastidipped the grill and bumper inserts, IMO this looks much better and was easier than I thought!
