Mine is sitting in my garage. I need to install it. How was it? Not bad?

Not too bad at all. You'll need a 42mm socket for pitman arm nut and impact. Mark your holes and pre drill with a smaller bit. I used a stepper bit to get in there. A drill with a standard bit is too long for the space. I took my time and it was about an hour on my back.

You will see 5800-600k when ypur about 10-15% I usually change mine at 10%

Probably about right. I’m usually at around 30% in the 5k range. That’s when I usually change it.

That’s incredible. Really. I want mine to look like that.

My shoulders killed me for 2 days afterwards what I used was a harbor freight paint stripping wheel for a drill and my Ryobi cordless drill. Every weld had that skim surface rust and of course there was scraps and rock chips. Took me about 3-3.5 hrs. To do one side.

It looks fantastic. I’ve got a bit more rust to deal with on the other Jeep now though. Got it running today though! Took the kids around the neighborhood in the bed. The carb was all gummed up and not accepting fuel from the lines. Got it freed up and it’s roaring to life now.

Got off work a little early today and installed the JKS Manufacturing front track bar this afternoon. Used 9/16" Grade 8 hardware. I will say there was a lot of preload on the Rusty's Off Road track bar reinforcement bracket as it was installed loose with the OEM track bar and everything tighten down. Had to loosen things up again to get the new JKS track bar installed.

Built up some ramps with 2X10”s, trying to get the jeep up enough to spray with undercoating. Using the Under Gone, by salt be gone.

I did a soft install of a Starlink Gen 3 dish for remote excursions / home backup. I am very impressed so far and have used it on the Jeep for two weeks. I've seen up to 350 mb/s download speeds while driving. Mounted it under the freedom panels resting on a sunscreen with bungee cords securing it from moving around.
For power, I am running it off my Renogy inverter / house battery system as I do not have the factory outlet.
My power needs to Wh ratio is overly sufficient so I am not concerned with having the inverter on standby when I feel I may need wifi.
A big drawback with the dish is that there is not a power switch. I had a wireless outlet switch laying around and placed it where I plug in the starlink. I used the remote for the switch to "learn" the buttons on the visor to turn wifi on and off. I may entertain an inverter switch later, however going straight to DC input will most likely be the path forward.

Replaced the weak ass Synergy drag link ends that only lasted 15k miles with the same shitty ends. Gonna use it as a pull up bar and goes with something else.

Swapped my RC contour steps for a RC power boards. Wife is starting to show her age when it comes to getting in. I hate steps but at least these look alot like the OE Rubicon Rock Rails when they are up. Less noticeable than what I had. No rocks near me and not interested if their was. Thats about all you will see on my vehicles by RC , not a RC fan

Took apart driver door and trimmed a few things and added some foam to hopefully silence a squeak that was along the window at the back corner of the door THAT WAS GONNA DRIVE ME APE SH!T IF I DIDNT FIX IT

9k-mille oil change and 5-tire rotation. Had to drive about a mile and a half for all the TPMS sensors to reset. Good to go for another 3k miles.

 

[Free2roam]

Installed some new shocks courtesy of @CrazyCooter Fox 2.5 elites with the remote reservoir. Need to adjust some but that made a world of difference with weight I carry on a normal day. Can't wait to get them dialed in.

Installed Redrock bed side rock rails. Additional benefit...passenger side of the bumper had taken a big hit already, so these actually sucked the bumper back to the position it should be in.
