SEMA 2018

[homerun]

Started a thread for discussions about this years SEMA show. I know @JAY is there, anyone else? Maybe you can post some pictures or any news he finds out here. Doesn't have to be JT related but any cool things the aftermarket came up with for the JL, I am expecting many of the aftermarket parts to fit both JL and JT anyway. Finally, are there any press conferences to be aware of? If so can I stream them anywhere? I went to the SEMA show site and it really had a lot of info for vendors but not a lot for guys like me that can't be there but just want to know what is up with the latest and greatest off road parts. Since I am doubting there will be any info on the JT released, I am still curious to see what AEV and others have to talk about.

Yes, we'll be providing ongoing live coverage of all the JL products here:

No doubt as you said there will be a good deal of overlap in JL/JT products so much of the coverage could be relevant. Also, if there's any JL-pickup conversions we'll be sure to post it up here.

Wow ... no comments on AEV's new stuff? Im shocked.

My buddy and I have been drooling over them big time. I love that they went with a modular front bumper with different end caps for the various setups. They had mentioned in the past they were coming up with something creative for the Wrangler fender variations and they nailed it. Really love all the products I can see but I was hoping to see some under body protection. I had the AEV rear axle skid on my JK and I thoroughly beat on that thing.

I'm trying to reduce an embarrassing swelling before I make comments...

Well played haha

That's some sexy hardware. It makes me re-evaluate my original thought of springing for a steel bumper on the truck when it comes out. My wife wouldn't want to hear me talking about "upgrades" for this truck already... the price is already going to be problematic.

Its interesting in the AEV video they say that the snorkel will still work with the fold down windshield (without the pre-filter)

That's good! No reason to omit one feature for another. Same goes for the lights directly in front of the A pillar. Jeep designed a fold down windshield. Even if I only use it one time, I want that feature functional.

Repeated for truth.

I know that AEV did that blue JL custom, but if I can't green on the JT I wouldn't mind having that color as an option. I think it come from the Ram 2500 line.
