What’s your first impressions on the bed mount for spare?
Heavily considering this for mine!

I like it a lot. Great quality and heavy duty.
Easy build and install.
Just make sure to keep it at least 7” back so you don’t hit pinch weld underneath!

Added my tonneau cover and the Invictus molle garb handles. Leveling kit and Rubi take off shocks going on next.

How sturdy are those grab handles? That molle fabric doesn't look like it could handle much weight.

Looks really good! How do you like those seat covers?
I really like them. Heavy duty, and fit much better Han expected. Will hide dirt better than the stock black, and most importantly look cool!!!

It’s sturdier than it looks. I wouldn’t hang from them, but I wouldn’t sweat putting normal stuff like flashlights and whatnot up there.

Added a few new upgrades. Got a Smittybilt Bumper/Winch, a couple of Rigid Lights on my new bumper and some NFab sidesteps for the shorty wife!

Picked my JT sport up from the shop yesterday, had it regeared to 5.13 and the RK pro x rear cradle installed/welded and control arms replaced (shop accidentally ordered x-factor kit the first time).

Notes on regear:
I have the 6 speed/manual transmission, which unfortunately comes geared at 3.73, the difference is AMAZING when running 37s/beadlocks. 5th Was barely usable, 6th was completely unusable With 37s (before the regear), even before replacing the tires it felt like there was no power with all the hills here in TN. AFTER the regear, it’s like a completely new truck and has restored faith in the manual transmission. I now have power through all gears, I’ll say 1st is a bit short but I’d much prefer that to the former configuration lol I’m seeing an increase in MPG, but will really need to drive it more before I can stand by that lol

difference between xfactor vs pro x:
major increase in ride quality on road. Rear feels like it articulates more consistently with the front, so it just feels much smoother/softer. Gotta break in The new gears and do a diff fluid flush after 500 miles before I take it wheeling again, but really excited to see the difference off-road.

overall I couldn’t be happier with the current setup. In the future, I’ll be addIng an ARB Twin compressor for tires, then adding arb air lockers shortly after that!
Appreciate you sharing that insight on the Pro-X. I’ve been going back and forth on those two and wasn’t able to find much on comparing the two. I’m planning on getting the Pro-X installed next month!

Technically I didn’t do it, the dealership did, but I got my first service as well as had them do the STFA TSB since it wasn’t present on my Launch Edition.

This stay at home order has finally given me time to work on my own Jeep.
Installed a Rugged Ridge snorkel. Fitment of the exterior parts was great, but the air box attachment could use some work.

Like the design of the Rugged Ridge cowl intake - wish they had done a mirror image on the driver’s side so you could flip the top up and access a compressor control center along the lines of what the wayout concept did on the driver’s fender vent - pressure gauge and an air hose quick connect. Or a winch control panel.
