Installed front and rear Armorlite flooring. Love it. Easy to install, took about 2 hours including stopping to chat with neighbor. Also tried to explain to my wife why I was doing in but she just shook her head and went back inside. If you want my mats and carpet, check the classifieds!

Man I wish I had that in the mini van back in the day when I was hauling the kiddos around!

What am I looking at?

Got rid off the bright silver bezals, on the bumber

Well, I did a wash, and quick wax. But I put on rough and country steps the other night, and I mean night with a flash light.

Not sure what sort of expectations I should have for aftermarket stuff, but I'm not overly impressed with them.

The box was barely together when it was delivered, and the packaging didn't really keep the parts from rubbing on each other. Couple spots of the coating flaking off and they didn't bolt up properly. I have to ream out two holes as of right now I'm missing a bolt on each side. But like I said it was like 9:30 at night getting these one, so I thought I would deal with the missing bolts later.

Took my tops off after 5 days of rain! Driving down the sun slashed interstate right into a rain shower….my interior took a quick shower

 

[obz]

Got hotheads installed.

 

[cdk223]

Removed the carpet and installed Armorlite flooring.

How hard or easy was this, beening wanting to do this. Are you going to go without floor mats now?

Put my new wheel and tire setup on (Method MR701 & 37” M/T Baja Boss AT) and also installed the Alpine PSS-23wra kit.

Do you have a lift installed? Looks great with 37's.

Supposed to have been an easy job today installing mud flaps/splash guards at all four wheel locations. Ha ha ha
Left rear wheel wouldn't break free from the hub. I had to beat on it with a six pound hammer and kick it. It took a lot of hammer blows to get it to come loose. What a PITA.
Got it done though.

I put Weathertechs on the front. They were a bit of a chore. Took an hour or so.
I put Jeep on the back. After I got the wheels off, only took about 10/side to install. Breaking those nuts loose, though...that was a chore. Yours look great!!

Removal of the carpet was easy. Getting the plastic trim to clip back in properly with the new flooring was a little tough, but not overly difficult. They do not recommend putting floormats over their flooring. I went on a Moab/Ouray Jeep and mountain biking trip right after installing. After getting back home I vacuumed up all the dirt and wiped down with a wet rag, looks good as new.

Installed Rugged Ridge Venator front bumper with Rough Country 12000 lb winch, and Rugged Ridge HD rear bumper. Bad thing about the Venator - no pre-drilled holes to attach lights. But those recovery hooks are BEEFY.

Those look like used return parts - you know, as in someone installed, used for a while, did not like, so returned them. Then they were just 'rewrapped'.

 

[Simplejack]

Agreed, +1

I have a 1” spacer in the front. I do have an AEV 2” spacer kit sitting in my garage that I plan on installing in the next day or so.
