I’ve a Sarge Green Mojave on order, hopefully I’ll have her by end of month and can post up some pics! Super excited to get it! Me and the Mrs have loved the color since we first saw it.

Thank you for uploading this picture. I ordered my BedRug last week and this gives me a good idea of what it will look like. I'm going to be installing a Softopper over this as well. Any issues with the install? How was cutting out for the bed lights?

Install is easy. Fitment is about 98-99%. On the backside of the material are cut lines for the lights, tiedown loops, and outlet if you have that installed. Very easy to do with a fresh blade in a utility knife. I laid this out in my bathroom with the overhead heater on for a couple of hours to make it much easier to work with. It was too cool outside with the breeze to work with it, but the sun was out which helped warm up my bed surface above the minimum 68°F they suggest for optimal adhesion. So if you're not in a warmer client you'll have to get creative and time your install perfectly.

I have a Bestop Supertop on order, so we'll have similar setups one of these months when my order ships. I went with the twill material to match my premium soft top.

They look pretty nice, is that ‘Olive Drab’ color from Bartact?

Thanks,

Put on seat covers that match the sarge green exterior

Is that a custom Texas flag cover??

No, Jtops USA sells them as one of their options although you can order custom as well.

Andrew, It looks like you mounted the 35's to the original wheels, is that what you had done?

I feel like I have to add at least an inch to the width of the wheel to put on 35s.

As previously mentioned, you can run a 12.5 wide on a 7.5” wheel. The tire will just crown more and have more wear on the center tread blocks

I’ve got a good reference picture, same tire but on different width wheels. 10”, 9” and the stock 7.5”

Quick before and after. Day before I got it from the dealer, swapped my JL wheels on and now

Didn’t want to wait for RK rear springs and the mopar lift springs are dirt cheap so added them with the 3/4” day start spacer to regain my rake. Even with the weight of the warn 8274 the 3.5” rock krawler JL coils sat slightly nose high

Thanks so much what a perfect way of showing the differences for all of us. It's a total shock to me that the wider wheels seem to make the tire taller---is it just an optical illusion? I would have thought a narrower wheel would have a taller same tire. Is the 10 actually taller than the 9 which is taller than the 7.5?

Might just be the way you are looking at it, but the 10” is shorter than the 7.5
The 10” on the left compared to the table behind us lower than the top while the 7.5” is almost in the middle of the tops edge

Out of the 3 of us running these all dropping to about the same psi wheeling, 8-10psi, my buddy with the 10” is the only one to blow a bead. Low psi, the tire couldn’t hold on to the bead of the wide while crawling over a rock

New to the forum and new to the Jeep life in general. Picked her up last week and LOVE it!

Had it since April, work in progress.

Is it me or does the Sarge Green look different in almos every picture? I will admit I am a little color blind and mine looks brown most of the time but it does seem to color shift in different lighting.

I notice it too! The "color temperature" affects some colors more than others, such as Sarge Green and also Gater.

The lighting and environment effects the color temperature a lot, though I quite enjoy it.

Took this one yesterday morning. I thought it was a pretty good example of the different shades in different light. Pretty cool
