The State Police in WV are pretty strict about Dark tinted windows. I want to say it's like 35% here seen a few guys with tint gauges being placed on windows by troopers

Installed e-link sway bar links. Need to talk to them tomorrow to get them up and running, but they look good. Currently they’re just locked, so feel like (are) a connected swaybar.

Awesome Dan, adjustable disconnecting links are great , but awesome is you have a carpeted garage floor now, and a nice calming pattern! Links controlled from the front seat, sorta like your shocks?…Jack

Why the e-links ? And how do they adjust for length ?
I simply couldn’t be happier with my Eclik shocks, for one. But the real answer is you get everything. A safe locked swaybar on the road, automatic disconnection at LOW speeds on the road, like under 10 or 15mph, so speed bumps and driveway aprons don’t create body roll. Off road it’s disconnected except above certain speeds. In desert mode it’s disconnected at all speeds, but instantly connects when the Jeep turns. Everything can be manually overridden as well, instead of using the auto setting. Auto differs depending on the mode you’re in.

Old outdoor carpets loosely laid in the garage. I’m a weirdo. What can I say. Same system as the shocks. Same controls. I can’t wait to test them out tomorrow.

Since we wheel in dusty areas a lot, we purchased the AmFib snorkel for our shop Rubicon XR.

I wanted the replacement panel to color match and not be black, so I rattle caned it with primer, then Anvil, then used 2k clear out of a can.

paint went down well, I think it turned out great! 👍

Mine did the same thing. I have a post about it. Dealer replaced under warranty. Be prepared to call jeep because mine didn’t update properly and jeep had to send info to the unit

I’m genuinely impressed. I do not know how to paint automotive stuff.

honesty was not particularly hard. It’s MUCH easier when it’s a full separate piece vs blending. It was all rattle cans. The hood is not totally closing all of the way so we may need to remove a little material somewhere.
