Those KM3's look great! Can't wait for some daytime pics. What lift or leveling kit do you have?

Didn’t add anything. Kit was $1345 online, 5x duratracs were like $1700 at discount tire, installation was about $900 at the dealer including reprogramming for 35s

What size tires you go with?

35x12.5 R17

Went with a Teraflex leveling kit for now.

Well... Finally being home from another long deployment and getting my hands on the mountain of parts I've ordered over the past several months I thought Thanksgiving would be a great time to install some of the more simple items. 1.) Mopar trail rail system. Super easy install once all the spray in bedliner was cleared from the holes. Hands down worth their weight in gold are the "Thread Chaser bolts" that clear all the liner and make sure the bolt holes are lined up as needed. 2.) JCR Offroad Front Molle panel. What a great idea from an Awesome company. I used their video for the idea of adding a couple Rotopax and boy do I like the way it looks. Not a single rattle, have to love USA made. 3.) 400W power outlet. Since I have a Rubicon and only needed a couple of items to complete if you are looking to save money from a "Factory Installed" option, this is the way to go. Took about 20 min total time and a game changer this will be for the future of my JT. 4.) T-rex. I think the decal speaks for itself unless you are 12 and have never seen the movie. Several people on this forum have shown theirs off so now its my time. 5.) Redline Tuning hood strut kit. 5 minute install and goodbye prop rod. Little pricey but I guess the quality warrants it. Only 40 more boxes of things to install including lift, lights, tires, winch every single Steersmart component they make and of course the new wheels. I look forward to updating as I go along, but I want to thank those who have given me the cool ideas and wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.

Welcome home sir! Thank you for your service! Interested in your bed plug set up. I have a rubicon on order… can you point me in the direction for that install?

Replaced the damaged fender with the one I got on Facebook Marketplace. Had to twist the fender mounts a little bit to get them back into line but once I did that it fit fine.

Big thanks to a local NovaJeeper for letting me have his leftover plastic clip kit (w-clips, rivets and tree pins). Saved me having to go to the dealer. I salvaged some from the fender I removed so I only used a few of them.

The black W clips that hold the fender to the body in the kit that you buy on Amazon/Ebay are a little larger than the whites ones it had, looks like they are meant for JK's, but I got it to work.

The fender I bought had LED'S. Fortunately I have a Tazer so I switched to LED and it worked. So I have LED on the left and bulbs on the right. For now......
