I will definitely check it out. Test drove this and feels like a real improvement over my stock and unfortunately worn DL. Already less reactive over bumps and seems to firm up steering some. Not a hard core off roader, this is a daily - for now.
The attenuator is REALLY noticeable on the road. It’s basically a high resistance shock absorber with 1/2” or less of travel. So when you hit bumps, it absorbs it before you feel it at the wheel. It wasn’t expensive so I gave it a shot, but it’s not snake oil. Very nice indeed.

Finally got the winch and skid plate reinstalled after the bumper chop. I did the skid in black to contrast with the bumper. I like it.

Started on my custom drawer slide for my fridge and stove.
Got both the slides built. Cut out the wood for the shelf itself. Covered it with a couple coats of bedliner in a can.

Hopefully tomorrow I can get everything fully mounted up since it will be nice and dry

Are you sure you need that much bump space?? You only have like 1.5” of uptravel.
The bumper jounces will compress a lot, there is more uptravel than u think

Received and installed @darksidedesign paracord handles. Nice and beefy and colored to match my Sarge Green Mojave. After installing them I realized they would be more comfortable with the round side facing up. Reinstalled and they look and feel great! Adding a little twist at the ends will keep them tight too. Highly recommended! ????

I added the twist as well. Good call. They’re SO nice.

Installed a Cascadia 4x4 hood solar panel and charge controller. It maintains the Jeep batteries, and has an accessory DC output that I’m going to use to maintain my Bluetti battery pack. I haven’t run that wire yet, but it’s working great for the Jeep itself. The first picture is just of the vinyl to protect the hood from the panel.

You killed your approach angle. That thing looks like it hangs down super far.
