Made a mobile phone mount...see below for pictures of all the parts used (not posting in correct order).

Basically I trimmed down the PanaVise phone mount (all the dremel jacked up parts below)...final clean trim using new razor blade to get perfectly smooth backside. Then drilled to it bolt it together with the CB microphone mount that bolts to dash behind dash grab handle.

You need interior trim tools to pop off the dash panels and a socket wrench to install it. Look up the JL dash removal videos to see how to pop off panels.

It sits up high and has perfect driver visibility. Either a 18” cord plugged into dash or a 24”+ cord plugged center console can reach it.

It sort-of blocks the passenger left side A/C vent. But the phone does not overheat in direct sunlight (if A/C is on) which is an issue here in SoCal with leaving your phone in direct sunlight.

Around $35 plus my labor...idea credit for mic holder goes to JL Wrangler forum. All parts from Amazon.

That’s nice. I end up going up through the Blue Ridge Mountains in to Tennessee.

Did you do Beasley Knob?

Not this year. On my bucket lost for next though.

Hey @Gregbj33 good choice for a step bar. When I went to order the N-Fab Epyx steps were not yet available at Quadratec. So I got a set of their Predator Pro steps, like em. Glad to see you were able to get your Epyx steps, look great on your truck.

Added a deflection device to keep bad juju away. (ie windshields hazards) yeah I know optimism It’s from Barricade.

My son and I installed winch plate and Warn VR10S from my TJ. I planned on doing a Zeon 12 but I’m putting priority on getting the lift, wheels, and tires done first. If that winch ever fails me then I will replace it.

Does that bug deflector have a bunch of lights in it?

Thanks! I love them, didn’t care for the rounded bar on some of the other options. Ended up ordering from Summit Racing. Had them in just over a week. Easy install and have some good weight to them, seems very durable.

Hahahahaha, I wish! Nah they’re button head torx screws which fasten to a 3M tab system. Keeps all in place.

Well, I didn't do it yet, but I got it ready today. If the rain finally goes away tomorrow these will adorn the hood! And no, I don't have the font, lol. But, I'd be happy to provide my vector file that I created in my Silhouette software for my vinyl printer. As long as all you want to spell is Gladiator or whatever words those letters came make up!

I’d love to get the vector file. My wife has access to a vinyl printer. Any tips on printer settings/size?

I have it sized to be about 22" long (its about 3-1/4" at it's tallest). You can PM me an e-mail address and I'll send some files over.

EAG full width bumper w/bull bar and a winch. Will be installing a light bar soon and will get better pics then. Waited until my son (pictured) and son in law got to town for a visit. It was a pretty easy install with two strapping young lads to assist.

Thanks! I did the RC 2.5” leveling in the front and Daystar 3/4” spacers in the rear. Tires are 305/70/18, just under 35” tires.
