When I bought my JT, this was the only feature missing and was almost a deal breaker until my Mom of all people told I was being dumb. I guess I had been spoiled by previous vehicles.
A big shout out to everyone contributing to this forum!
As of yesterday with some help from AZ Wholesale...
So I want to add a nice set of lights to turn nighttime into day. I rarely camp, I'm not running a 24 hour rally...I just want to be able to do so for pure entertainment. I already have the LED upgraded lighting. I want to start with either a set on my A pillar or on my front bumper can't...
I retrofit the 10A JK copy bumper on mine and found a guy selling Arcus hooks for $60 that I swapped on instead. Some quality short socket head fasteners from McMaster Carr, a heavy coating of PlastiDip and some tinkering to mount my factory LED's and I was in business. My wife especially...
OMG! Alright...you got me! It's an early April 1st prank right? I'm so glad that a "kit" comprised of some grade 8 bolts (24 to be exact) WITH washers and nuts are back in stock because the countless JT owners out there were SOOOOO excited to part with $160!!!!!!
Are you kidding me!!!!
I fabbed my own cold air intake using the very functional stock air box for a tiny fraction of the usual price to replace the whole thing and not a single issue.
I also replaced the stock steering stabilizer with a FOX TS (same series as the Mopar 2 inch lift series shocks) and I think it...
I'm at about 4 as well, but I was also watching Step Brothers and Talladega Nights at the same time. The project time was the break from conference calls that I needed, so I'm not rushing.
So mine showed up yesterday...I echo some of the same comments.
I'm not messing with the crushcans, but I did transfer over the OEM tow hooks. The winch plate is going in with hopes of a winch in the near future, which most likely will be pure poser (admittedly). Surprisingly, the winch...

You need two brackets: 68353836AA (driver side) and 68353836AB (passenger side) and associated fasteners.
They are part of 82215183AB. Here is a link to those...
Worst case, you'll need to drill and bolt I guess...
You might consider trying to order the metal Rubicon skid for the Gladiator. Mine is held on by a bracket and doesn't even touch the existing bumper.
It's a really early prototype for a quite precarious trail toilet. It wasn't very popular and resulted in multiple lawsuits for both inflicted chaffing and public indecency. It was scrapped shortly after.
From what I can tell, I think the stock Rubicon steel will work. I guess I'll see when it shows up on Thursday! :)
I'll be honest, I'm a little curious as to what will actually be delivered. The descriptions on these 10th anny JK's vs the 3 piece JL, etc have been used a little...
