Where did you find that roof rack that is soft top compatible?

First jeep, first time doing any sort of wiring in a vehicle and first post.

slowly doing some things to the JT. First was installing the oracle bed lights.

I didn’t want to drill any holes in the bed and was able to find a small hole in the top rear above the bed rails that the wire fit in. Wired them up to Aux 3.
Next will be replacing the plastic bumper with a steel rubicon bumper. Will be doing that this weekend.

So you installed the Oracle Lighting cargo strip under the bed rails and hooked it up to the aux wiring under the hood? What was the path that you took for the wiring? How muc extra wiring di you have to buy?

Installed JCR's tire carrier on my uncle's JT. Quite a few issues, will be calling them tomorrow. First is that the two side pieces that act as stepper and slider don't line up with the bumper. It is misaligned by quite a bit. Second is that their rear backup extension kit doesn't work with the rear camera on my uncle's JT. Not sure but maybe Jeep changed the backup cam as it doesn't match the one on their JT install video. The bracket that holds the camera itself, and the extension cable doesn't fit the camera.

Front bumper/winch re-installed WITH stinger :facepalm:. This is the last of my first wave of mods and I'm happier than a pig in $#!T with how it all came out. Maybe some time later this year I can focus on adding some lights to the chase rack, bumper etc. Keep posting your wicked ideas, you guys give the inspiration to empty the wallet!

I do like that look though. Loved the spare mount on the original concept.

Not going to lie, it does look good. It's just several issues with them that is a bit annoying. Weekend prior we were about to install it, oem bumpers off, everything, to find out they didn't ship any bolts and hardware for the bumper. So had to wait a week for them to get here. To be fair their customer service was good and sent the bolts with no hassle. Now the sides don't bolt up properly, and the more annoying part is the backup cam not working. Also, their powdercoating (well whichever powdercoat company they use) is not good at all. Just a light tightening of a screw would chip off the coating.

Anyways, hoping by next weekend (third weekend in a row), we can finally finish up the install if we're able to solve those two issues.

I installed the RK 3.0 no limits lift and then took her down to get 37s installed replacing the 35s and 3” mopar lift the dealer installed. Gears are coming on the 30th.

Which sliders is she wearing ? They look like they hide the pinch weld nicely …...are you getting much "usable step" out of them ?

Installed the Oracle 7" LED Headlights yesterday. Absolutely love them. Gives a nice and clean look without looking like too much of a showboat. I also really enjoy supporting a local company.

Wow that sucks. I am considering this bumper as well. Please update after you get a resolution. How well does the hidden hitch work?

The body protection is by poison Spyder the sliders are factory rubicon sliders the the dealer installed. I’m working with my buddy at BAMF to possibly utilize one of his already designed Toyota style sliders on the Gladiator
