Good point there.

Brian, Here are 3 pics ... The tubes are 1.5" lower than body mounted portion of the slider. But, the tubes are 2" higher than the frame. Most forum members will recommend 'angled up' sliders. Angled up will perform a little bit better in some offroad scenarios ... allowing the body to...

I'm definitely down for a trip somewhere sooner than later! I'll keep a summer Moab trip in mind. I hope to hit the Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway in Kentucky sometime in May (and rock climb in the Red River Gorge) ... as soon as camping is allowed in KY. All I will need is gas. It will...

I have experience with both the ACE & RockHard sliders. I bought the ACE sliders in 2018 for my JLU. They come away from the vehicle enough to be used as a step, but have no protruding step to get hung up on anything. They mount to the frame so they are super sturdy! The cons - they don't...

Did they discuss body-mounted mirrors? I don't think they did. :( Maybe they'll put them on the next batch of concept vehicles built. :fingerscrossed:

Based on responses & enthusiasm ... It seems like they like the idea of a larger engine, but are unlikely to add one for various unspoken constraints. But, they seemed excited about the increased torque potential in a diesel and an EV. Did I read them right?

Oh, I get it, those pics are from Etsy. I personally think blue on blue might be too much blue. Black is easy to get and ties other tire/trim pieces together. Do you have any other accent colors in mind? White, light gray, bronze, orange, yellow, green, red?

Here's me overthinking your decision LOL While both look good, I personally like the chrome a bit more than the matte. It provides a little 'life' to the sting gray paint. (I like the paint color, I'm just saying it's more subdued.) I bought a Hydro Blue gladiator with the flecks in the...

Looks great!

My vinyl decals arrived ... mtn biker, rock climber, and "Adventure Begins Where The Road Ends" circle. (Etsy) I also received the 1.5'x5' roll of satin black vinyl wrap to measure/mask, cut, and apply to the inset area near the front fender flare as well as the 'ribbon' above and below the...

I modeled my wire run after @robinja and I'm very happy with the outcome. Pretty easy routing too. fyi ... 1/2" diameter x 14ft (I bought a pair of 7ft conduits) spans the run of wire from engine to bed nicely.

Yes, that did help me. I was overusing the concept that a smaller wire requires a shorter run for a given amp draw. It has limits. Even though a cigarette lighter plug is a 'short run', that doesn't mean it is safe for a high amp draw. Scrapping 'plan A' ... Plan B: I have some extra...

Do the screws just anchor to the bed wall, or do you have something else behind the bed wall as well?

That's the most conventional plan for sure. The main point of this project was to power my compressor at the rear of the vehicle. This allows me to store & use my compressor and hose octopus right from the bed. I did run the engine during my test ... as that's how I will do it at trail heads...

I love it! I built my mountain bike with a black & lime green theme. I'm actually planning on adding some lime green to my JT. I'm just not sure where yet.

Here's the Rebel XPLOR full rack. The rack served as a massive cage when we moved my daughter's belongings home from her dorm room. I also installed an Access Literider tonneau roll up cover. It works, but won't roll up directly. I need to angle it around the vertical supports, then roll...

I plan on powering an air compressor that draws up to 40 amps from a dc outlet. I ran 6AWG wire from the engine compartment to the bed outlet hole. I soldered my positive 6AWG wire to the aux 1 (40amp) wire under the hood ... and connected the negative 6AWG wire to the negative battery...

I loved my 2018 JLU. But, I'm selling that to recoup some of the cost of my 2020 JT ... which I also love! Here's my laundry list (wish list) ... - Steering wander & death wobble are hit or miss per vehicle. I realize they're not the same, but both are related to...

I experienced the same thing back in February. But, I got 8.5% below dealer invoice, then another $2000 off of that on Feb 20th at Koons in Virginia. I'm not sure what Craig Benner is currently offering, but he will shoot straight with you. To me, the trip was worth it ... flew out to pick it...
