So I may pull the trigger on a used rubicon steel bumper for my Mojave. What’s the tricks on getting the factory skid to work with it?

have a trim the bumper slightly. near the front 2 corners of the skid plate.. it will bolt up without trimming but will have a slight gap between the bumper and skid

How do you like the wireless CarPlay? Any issues?
Got this yesterday and paired in about 20 seconds. Had to run a few errands and out of 5 vehicle startups, I had one instance where the device didn’t pair automatically and I had to unplug the adaptor, plug it back in, and it worked like a champ.

Give me a little time, and I’ll report back if any issues.

My wife did immediately say that’s what she wants for Mother’s Day..

Does anybody here drive their Mojave Offroad rather hard? Do you guys get a loud bang when you hit the front bump stops?

I do hear a little bit of a bang, feel a decent jolt in the steering wheel.

I just did this on Friday. An important note is that the ebay knock-off only requires 2 small trims. The mopar bumper requires more but isn't horrible (start with the same 2 trims and then an additional quarter inch from the trim points to the outside edge ... I'll take pictures later today). The steel is thick enough that you will want an angle grinder and some eye protection. I am taking it off today to clean it up with a sander and then painting the raw edges.

Putting a stubby on my Mojave, want to get some orange shackles to match the orange accents. Anyone know of any decent quality that color-match within reason?
