Finished product. Very easy install, just a little stressful when cutting. AEV is top notch. 2” spacer lift and correction brackets on the way. 35’s , rubicon steel bumper and warn evo 10s coming up.

Front Rokblokz XL installed. Ordered after filling my door handles up with mud last Saturday. Arrived yesterday. 15 minute install. These should help. Black on black, almost invisible! Maybe some rear flaps later.

So they just have those red ones and then the right side they have ones similar to the mopar aux kit. Right now there is no customizing of buttons but I know a lot of people have been asking so hopefully they will in the future.
It clearly superior to anything else the market except I don’t have 2 lockers, onboard air or a second fuel tank. Who had a second fuel tank!?!

agreed, i think they are the best aftermarket out there. For me, I'm doing lockers and have a compressor so I will just have an extra button to use with the 2nd fuel tank switch. I honestly don't think I would've bought them if all 4 switches were being used for something other then theyre labeled.

Installed the Genesis dual battery kit. I have to admit, the install looks intimidating and I was scared of what might happen when I started up my truck. Everything turned out great - zero issues to report. The install was very straight forward and the installation video by Genesis is spot on. I watched the install video a few time before starting and then watched it on my phone as I worked through each step. I went slow and took my time. It took me about 3 hrs from start to finish and then another hour to reroute my accessory wires.

Thank God, no more pos auxiliary battery. Mine died a while ago. When I went to pull it out, there was 1/8” of condensation in the compartment. Not sure if this is what’s causing them to die. Anyway, it’s gone now!

Installed Quadratec door sill protectors, put back seat cover on, yellow laminex on fogs, and a couple tray inserts. One by the grab handle and one in the console. Best off all took the panels off and went for a cruise. Absolutely in love with my JT. Can’t believe I’ve gone this long without a Jeep in my life!

The Quadratecs are like the Rugged Ridge ones I got-They go up and over that lip that always gets scratched. This will be my 6th Jeep! 1st in 1972!

Finally got around to installing L-tracks and a Dometic hardwire kit onto my Goose Gear seat delete. Running the wiring from the battery, through the firewall (via gasket on the driver's side), and to the back seat was super easy.

Flag decals on the cowl... we put these on our jku a few years ago...kept thinking the gladiator was missing something. (Someone at work even asked “where the flags were?”).

Bumper installed! Just waiting on the winch to arrive.

First impressions are good on this Rugged Ridge Venator. I do wish the lower “skid” did provide as much protection as the factory skid as they can’t be used together.
It covers the sway bar disconnect, but not by much.

It’s not the kinda armor for tackling the hard stuff, but at a pretty reasonable 80ish lb weight, and the real heavy metal around the winch and hooks, it seems plenty sturdy.

I’m 200 lbs, and was lifting myself off the ground by pressing down on the wings. It has minimal flex and no distortion so I’m pleased with it’s general sturdyness.

Install was fairly smooth. But the nutserts for the factory skid plate remained and required some “coaxing” with a hammer to get it all in. Otherwise it was really smooth to do it all. Instead of being 150+ lbs of a single piece, the trade off here is that it is a bit of a jigsaw. Not particularly difficult, but paying attention will give good results.

The finish is really nice, but has flaked on a few of the non visible areas.

All in all, it’s a neat bumper. Almost makes me wish they had a “signature series” of it that took those extra few minutes and steps in the making to get it OEM fit and finish. To their credit, this is pretty impressive a design to flat pack a winch bumper that is both capable and looks like a factory concept piece all for half the mopar one?


Also, anyone in WA need some take off bits? I’ll put a classified together later once I clean it up.
