So, I bought a simple little led strip, drilled a 1/4" hole in trim piece in front of Jeep dome light and wired it to the existing dome light wire. This simply works in conjunction with the dome light. It is amazing!
Wow, these control arms are about $30 each. Cheap to get realigned after a 1.5" lift!So today I finally swap my stock LCA with Mopar lift LCA, my JL is currently at stock height, but I hope that slightly longer LCA can give me a bit more caster. Also, it is Mopar so the dealer can't tell I swapped unless they look at it under a microscope.
As you can see in the picture, Mopar lift LCA is slightly longer than the stock LCA (measured by about 1/4 inch). In case you are interested in doing this mod, the part number for Mopar lift LCA is 68322798AA. If you want to use a new set of bolts and nuts, they are 6512085AA (bolt, M16-1.5x104mm) and 6104720AA (nut). The torque specs are 190 ft-lb. The 130 and lower floating around the internet is from the old JK smaller bolt and nut, JL has a larger bolt so the torque is much higher.
Some tips for your installation:
(1) Tools, tools, tools! Breaking free LCA requires a 21 mm deep socket and 24 mm wrench, since the space is really limited under the car, you need to have an impact wrench that can deliver good torque.
(2) The new LCA will be longer, so you need to jack up the frame slightly (shown in another picture) to push it in. Once you push one side in, the other side should be easy since the axle is already moved.
(3) I put a tiny bit of anti-seize in the LCA mount, does not hurt to have a little bit.
Hoping these smoked lens LED reflector lights will be made in bright white soon. I called the manufacture (iJDMTOY) and requested them in bright white. They would be a elegant solution for back-up lights.
Just installed this on my Cayenne and its great! https://headlightleds.com/products/...1&utm_source=google&utm_medium=smart_campaign

Nice! I had no idea this was a thing. Was the install difficult? (The cup holders)Added the rear cup holders and a little winch protection (probably more for looks) today. No idea why jeep would exclude these cup holders on the Rubicons.
The cup holder thing is not a Rubicon thing, it's a leather package thing. The leather seats have the rear fold-down center with cup holders, and that interferes with the floor-mounted ones.Added the rear cup holders and a little winch protection (probably more for looks) today.
