Awesome , looks great decided to go this route, ordered today! Anything to watch for?
Nah man not really. Take your time if your installing the shims under the bed rail caps. Its tedious. But highly recommend it. After a few you'll figure out what works. Hard to explain but you'll see. Other than that, pretty easy install. Absolutely the best mod on my truck in my opinion. Wanted one since day one of having my JT.

I got home yesterday and saw all the stuff I need to put on the ol girl… I started today with changing my rims out… traded out my dirty life dt1’s for black rhino sentinels with apex rpv valves and red lugnuts to match.
…. And yes my dt1’s are for sale.

I would love to know your thoughts on the 4:88 swap with 35's. Pros? Cons? Do you tow with it?
Noise?
I regeared mine because I do tow a travel trailer. I wanted to keep the torque to the ground the same as stock. As it is, I think I have a little more torque than the stock setup. The biggest con is the hit on MPG. I lost about 1.5mpg. not sure how much was tires compared to regearing. But I love the feel of it. Drives great, plenty of pep, tows well. Once, I am not towing a trailer anymore, I'll bump it up to 37s with a lift.

Also, I've been seeing on YouTube that AAL sequential turns have been failing...



? I just got these in the mail a few weeks ago, and waiting on their inner fenders to ship to install.I didn't know these had an issue, hopefully I don't :/

Completed the Mojave hood swap and installed the ARB Classic Deluxe bumper with Smittybilt Gen 3 10k winch. I am digging the light on the winch.

Now I just need to fill the square holes in the bumper, it is weird ARB left those unfinished....

The thought has also crossed my mind to make CAI plumbing from the hood scoop to factory airbox :facepalm: Too many projects.

How do you like the full-width ARB? have you flexed it out yet and checked the rub? Looking at ARB bumpers but torn between stubby and full-size.

Looks great. How do you like the ARB bumper?, Is it a super heavy bumper and how is it in the winter with road salt if you are in that type of environment?.

Not my bumper, I was asking the OP how he likes it too.

About a week back BOTH my sunvisors decided to brake on the SAME DAY.

Today the fix arrived and 5 minutes later the problem is sorted:

*hey that right screw doesn’t look tight and seated.

Props to the members who posted up the Taccom fix! Went with the 2 screw version for the extra support.
