I used these tools (plus jeep kit)

• Gear puller for wipers to drop windshield

Pull out all the guts to make sure the USB socket will fit without hitting radio

Cut a hole in the dash (radio doesn't hit socket but it's close)

Pulled power off the 12v port and installed rail (all ports can be used)

Tossed this stuff
- Trimmed ends of the dash mat after installing rail
- Plastic tube and connector from adaptor kit

Added Arcus bumper with RR 10k Winch... PITA but my son and I got through it.

Nice rail, can you show a pic with your devices added? Also, how long ago did you order the Arcus? I ordered mine direct from RR on Feb 14 and I still have no firm ship date. I did receive the over rider bar and the 10K winch from the order. They keep pushing back the ship date when I email customer service.

Sorry for delay, I was wheeling in TN this weekend. Here's a shot of what was working at that time, still some playing to be done.

As for the Arcus bumper + 10K RR Winch, I also ordered in Feb (from 4WP). Winch came in pretty quickly but no bumper. In April I started calling around for another bumper option and called RR to untangle part numbers... they had 2-3 bumpers in stock so I ordered on the spot and canceled 4WP order (lucky).

Good luck on bumper. It was worth the wait and I love the look. I'm a bit worried about small rust spots out of the box but I'll remediate as best I can.

Last weekend put on 35" Toyo OC on stock rims. Step one on way to 37" and re-gear next year.

No, not required. No rubbing and to be honest I think it handles/rides better (not exactly sure what's better, I'll need more time). I just wanted a little more tire for off-road and this is perfect for now.

Added Hellwig swaybar. Middle setting is great unloaded. Preparing for ARE cap.

Mine rode and drove better with addition of 35s as well. Like your Mojave…

Catching up with my build postings...

AEV 2" Lift with Geometry Brackets

Profile after lift...

Overall, install took twice as long as I planned.

Ride quality? Still good but since center of gravity is higher you can feel it. I expected this and installed heavier sway bar to help with roll (which I love).

Was trail 26 pretty easy? How do you get the badge?
