Not a major build, just the usual bolt ons

[TEAMSLO]

Just wanted to share as I am still new to wheeling and especially to the Jeep brand.

Purchased in Oct with a build date of 09/21. Famous last words mentioned to the wifey before purchase: With the Mojave, all I need are wheels n tires and I'll call it a day

Threw on Method 702 with 37" Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT's with front Rockblokz

Took her out on some light wheeling trails

Swing Cases installed, removed drop in liner and added trail rails (not pictured)

Went with ACE Engineering sliders as they fit with factory rails

AEV 2" spacer lift installed

Ordered Addictive Desert Designs bumpers, Badlands Apex winch and supporting gear. (Gear America coming off soon to be replaced with Crosby shackles) Rigid 20" curved light bar and rear cube lights installed within the bumpers. There is a longer story to this regarding a few boxes in the living room that I kept there on purpose to swap out with new incoming deliveries without the wifey knowing. That is.....until the bumper showed up and I was looking for a hiding spot when she caught me. (deer in the headlights look)

Took my 11 year old out for his first drive, up until now, its been around the neighborhood on my lap. This was on Thanksgiving morning while no one was out on the trail. Forgot to mention the BulletPoint mounts for phone/gopro/handheld radio. (Keep your eyes on the road kid!!!!)

Rear ADD bumper with rigid light installed along with the hitch skid plate

Had to swap out the thimble (eyelet) that came with the badlands rope as it didn't fit the Factor55 hook. Huge thanks to Kristin with Tactical Recovery Equipment for the swap and also for putting together a recovery bag and how to use.

Fabtech small rack installed with usual items; rotopax, shovel/maxtrax, pro eagle Kratos jack/mount, along with a mount for the safety whip flag for areas that require them.

Took the kids/wifey on out and luckily..... wifey approved everything including the trail

Of course, the more I take off my checklist, the more that gets added......

Nice adds. Just recently picked up my '21 Mojave. Already had a lot of add ons, front bumper, winch, fenders, etc. Did you need the 2" lift to handle the 37's or was that more for aesthetics? I'm trying to decide between 35 & 37 when these factory 33's wear down a bit more.

Hi Austin, thanks..... there were no issues with the 37s on the street and on light trails. But you will want the 2" or so lift if you plan on doing regular trails and not wanting to rub during flex. Plus the added clearance gives a little peace of mind depending on the trail your out on. I been out on trails pretty much every Sat and Sunday since the AEV lift and haven't had any issues so far.

I really like the look of the factory sliders paired with the ace engineering. Reading I was like what? But looked good once I looked at the pic.

Thanks, yeah once I heard about them, looked them up wondering the same. Turned out good as its sort of double protection and the pinch seams/welds are not showing.

Good looking rig....

How was the install on the rear bumper?

I've got it, just haven't had the time to install....

Didn't have them for very long as they turned into an eye sore for me. The are universal shaped n fitted. So on a gladiator there was a big gap between the wheel liner in the bed vs the cut out on the swing out cases.

Hard to see in the pic below at this angle...
