Interesting, I would've thought all models had them.

Thanks man. Very kind and much appreciated. I'm having fun. Hopefully mine will be starting to look more like yours when she grows up.

You mean scratched and dented?

Your work is really nice, and is inspiring more fun projects for me. Don’t tell my wife though.

The 2020 I had and my current 2022 don't have that (both are Overland)

Very interesting indeed, it appears the Overland models have a different grab handle then.

Installed these with the wife today. Driver side lined up better than the passenger side. I definitely liked the Rusty’s ones better, but they are never in stock.

Couple minor things today. I put longer bolts in the top rear sway bar end links. The old ones were pretty damn short, especially after putting on the metal cloak reinforcement bracket. I also mounted my element fire extinguisher using a quick fist and a molle insert from gorman precision. Don’t mind the dog hair. Lol

I suspect they do, never did a direct comparison, but would bet they are different in that way.
I don't like stuff being waaay over there anyway (with a bad right eye, especially) so I opted for a dash mount.

It holds my phone sometimes, my plow controller sometimes, and sometimes it just sits there and looks important. I can operate the plow with the controller where it sits, or lift and hold it when plowing.

I don't even care for the radio screen being like and where it is - you have to turn your head and look at it, and it's then at such an angle...... wish it was more like other vehicles with a cockpit type layout where things face the pilot, er, driver, more head-on like my Javelin does where the dash and controls wrap around the driver.

Traded it in for a Gobi diesel!

hahaha!!! Noooo, not that! LOL.

Thanks! Mums the word. I gotta keep things just a little bit on the downlow until the wife embraces the full jeep modification / tweaking lifestyle. . Hopefully she doesn't see this post.

Took her and her 94 year old parents wheeling today though. All of em loved it. I think I'm OK spending some money here and there. I'll say it's to make things more fun for her folks....

Hmmmm....that is strange. Unfortunate too. Those cmmoffroad ball mounts for the RAM arms are really (IMO) the easiest and most convenient (except for overland I guess) ways to mount stuff. Next up for me is one of their A pillar ball mounts for phone or Garmin GPS.

Naw, too far away for my needs and tastes and abilities. A pillar mount would be fine, but the dash mount puts things right where I want 'em. For a tablet I could always get the right side mount to match my left side Bullet Point mount.

Spring Break Vacation in 5 days, heading to the Oregon Coast and taking the Gladiator on the beach - hopefully the weather cooperates. So day I tried out the Foam Canon, cleaned the Motorhome, Gladiator and Cherokee. Did a great job.

Then I started the install of the Oracle New Style Pre-Runner Style LED Grill Lights. Since I have the Trail Cam this was the best option My type A would have gone crazy with one light under the trail cam. Had a little help from my friends at Maui Brewing Company - needed a couple so I wouldn't use profanity as Oracle's lame "instructions" aka watch a YouTube video. Not rocket science, but details matter.

As small as the lights were I was a bit apprehensive about how much light they would emit - no problem.

Is that a 26’ captiva? I used to have one.
