Rims look awfully similar to mine....... They'll get beat up quickly. Rim edges have some chunks gouged out of them from the trails. Bumpers look like a similar breed also. You have very good tastes.

Thanks! That means a lot coming from the “King of Mods”.

Added Westin Oil Pan skid. Painted it red to match the other skids i have as well. Pretty simple install and the price was right.

And no, i don't expect the paint to survive should the plate get hit, but I've got plenty left to touch it up.
Pentastar or Turbo? Looks like a nice beefy plate with good coverage!

I have the same parts from Maximus-3. Make sure a D-ring pin can pass through the d-ring loops. For me the finish on the loop was a little too thick and I had to grind it down some. Might want to check now, ahead of needing them on the trail.
Thanks for the tip. I'll be sure to check!

Pentastar. Very beefy plate, definitely feels like it could take a decent beating.

Installed mount for my 10lb Power Tank, got it filled, and tested it in the bracket. Wish I could find a decent way to keep the metal strap from flopping when there’s no tank in there. I don’t expect to drive around all the time with the tank mounted.

"Few things this weekend, added a decal, got the tires rotated and balanced, added Energy Suspensions spare tire bumpers, hit 10k miles, got my first rock chip and got it fixed this morning."

Glad you got that chip before it expanded! Before my appointment to get mine fixed it cracked to two edges of the windshield....and my wonderful Progressive insurance only does free repairs so they will have me use my $500 deductible....seeing as replacments go for $479 why even bother with the insurance...SMH.

You could cut a piece of PVC pipe a couple of inches wide and use that. If the pipe is too small, glue some closed cell foam around it. If it is too big, slice lengthwise at 1/8" intervals until you have the right diameter you are looking for. Hope that made sense and hope it helps you, good luck.

@mikej didnt your tank come with the handle, to protect the valve? I also thought I would only keep the tank in the jeep when I needed it, but keep it in all the time?

Is your strap black?

Yeah I got pretty lucky, I work at a body shop and we have a glass company we use so I didn't have to make an appointment, the fix isn't perfect because of how bad the chip was but free is better than $500

@AnthemAVM Yeah, that picture was taken after driving home from having it filled, but before I reinstalled the handle and regulator. Good eye! I’d rather not tempt thieves to smash my window my leaving it in, so I’ll keep looking for an option there. The Velcro is doing okay, but feels like a hack. My strap is chrome.

Added the @JTopsUSA Soft-Top Storage Boot.
Awesome pics! Does everyone have a TV in their garage?? I wish mine was that clean and had that much room. I have a double and between shelving and kid crap I can barely get the Jeep and the wife's van inside
