Went on ride outside of Anthony, NM. Put a stick straight through the tire. All in we had three flats, one was a stick through a ridge grappler, one was a blown bead.

I installed some Red Rock bed guards. Very easy install, mounting brackets are super beefy. Best part they twisted the bumper straight again. 🤣 Probably should have bought these a few years ago.

Got some trail damage last night. Caught the bumper on a rock. So fixed it today. Mo’ betterish.🤣🤣

Here are my three. 2020 JT, 2020 JLU, 2000 TJ

Not at all. I had almost 1.5 of clearance left. It will need chopped if/when it gets 40s. The only spot of rubbing was the aftermarket inners up front. And the 37s were completely stuffed.

Went out and tested the 37s. Very pleased even with 4.10 gears. Did some trails out by Las Cruces and the Prehistoric Trackways: Box Canyon to Robledo Loop, Apache Canyon and the presidential staircase

Yea, I’ve learned to adapt with my little welder. Once the military stops moving me every 3 years I’ll invest in a good welder. For now this works fine for 3/16 and 1/4. One of these days I’ll get a Jeep or two up CO to get some wheeling in!

If I angled it any more it wouldn’t clear the hitch itself. Not to terribly worried as it’s quite a bit higher than all those aluminum hitch skids out there. I’m just an ok welder, I wouldn’t use this to pull on. My 110v welder definitely needed beveled edges and multiple passes to glue these...

Trimmed my inner fenders to fit the JKS disco retention brackets. After I welded up a harbor freight hitch skid.

Installed a Clayton’s SS relocation kit and some hockey puck bump stop extensions. Also nice comparison of 35x12.5r17 Kenda Klever MT2 and the 37x12.50r17 Kanati Trail Hog ATs. Both on 17x9 wheels. Yes the difference is slightly less as the Kendas have weight on them.

It’s been way too long since I updated this. Moved across the country and deployed. After that it was the JLU’s turn for some goodies. But back at it with the JT as the wife stole the JLU back. Some notes since the last update - Bilstein shocks and steering stabilizer added - Power...

Got the front RC flares on. Overall very pleased with the fenders so far.

Installed the rear Rough Country WF-1 flares. Made the 37s look tiny. Last pic is stock max tow flares for comparison.

Damn, I didn’t even realize Jeepin was still active. Just counting down the years until I can get retirement number one from the Army. Hope all is well with you brother.

The one and only 🤣 Fancy running into you over here, IntrepidXJ is over on the JL forum! I miss those Jeepin.net/forum.com days

Hey all, been a while since I have posted over here. The family and army have been keeping me busy. Been putting some work in on the JT so here are a few updates. Today it got some new shoes. 37x12.50r17 Kanati Trail Hogs. A few weeks ago I built and wired this nice bed power box. It’s fed by...

Which unit is that?

Well ended up getting some Bilsteins. Could beat the 383 shipped for all four.

Well first day back from a two week TDY to Bliss. Took the opportunity to drive the TJ out and drop it at a buddy’s place. Had to take a break from the pavement at hour 20 of cumulative driving. Overall it wasn’t terrible, but a TJ really isn’t the greatest on a road trip? Today was the first...

Thanks guys. Definitely give me some options to look into. It’s funny how bad the rubi fox shocks are on a JT. Running a diesel set on my JLU and the ride fantastic.
