Installed the Fox 2.0 steering stabilizer last night, a must and flashed my speedo just now with the Superchips Flashcal. I’m running Falcon Wildpeaks AT with Mammoth 17x9, so my 35s measured out to 34 1/4. Adjusted the speedo and took it for a test drive, what a difference in the shifting points.

2018 Sport S Unlimited, 3.6, stock gearing.

Couldn’t pass up these halogen spotlights for the front bumper.
Wasn’t even planning on putting lights on, but got distracted in the farm equipment store and thought “huh... I betcha those might look good above the winch...”

They were cheapies, but I really like the way they look mounted up compared to putting LED cubes on.... it reminds me of old rally-style lights
Took them out on some forest roads last night, and they really light up the trees
Don’t get me wrong, LED cubes are coming :LOL: just not yet

I decided to go with rk 3.5” xfactor with their rrd 2.25 shocks. It’s a little more maintenance than other lifts but I don’t mind, I’m always tinkering anyway, can’t sit still, lol. I already had their track bars and control arms so thought I’d try running a full kit instead of the mut lift I’ve been running.

Did you build those ramps just to test the suspension

How does it turn on? Automatically or switch.
Thanks... looks great
I have it plugged in through the 12V port on the back. I use the remote to power it on or off. However, it does come with the option of installing a switch or wiring it with the rest of the rear inside lights (all of which are provided btw). Awesome product!

Have you removed your Jpeggz and put your doors back on yet? Did you wind up with the hinge being mis-aligned at all? I'm asking because some of us are experiencing the Jpeggz forcing the bottom hinge to become mis-aligned leaving a gap at the hinge when putting the doors back on.
Yes it did happen. I just realigned it and tightened it back up. Just need to be aware an not put so much foot pressure on it next time. Issue btw only occurred on the driver side, not the passenger.

Arrived home today to see the UPS man sprinting back to his truck with General Pierre Francois Tutant Beauregard (Beau) hot on his heels! I tried not to laugh, unsuccessfully.

Apparently he had just lugged my “big ass box” up to the garage when Beau picked up his scent and sent him packing. I had to retrieve his hand truck and bring in to him two houses down. That was as close as he would come. I had tears streaming down my face and could barely breathe I was laughing so hard. This was not appreciated by Brown Santa in the slightest bit. I have no idea if I’ll be getting my new DV8 headlocks I ordered last week or not.

The shepherd knows not to chase the UPS man, but dobies give ZERO fucks about Jeeps or Jeep parts. I think he’s into 4 runners.

Oh yeah, got the new rock rails installed too.

Installed a set of Accutune Fox 2.0 RR shocks today. This is my, 4th shock install? I've had the Mopar fox, Falcon 3.3, Falcon 3.3SP2, Rancho 900XL and now these. They are certainly the most "boaty" shocks I have been on however that does translate to a pretty good compliance on bumps. Giving them a few days of comparison to see if I wanna keep these or the Falcons (yes, I have a problem). The crap IL roads make pretty much all shocks difficult at times.

Would you have a comparative write up about all of them please?
Ever considered swapping everything out to ORI struts?
