I leveled my JT ... by loading the bed with all of the contents of my daughter's college dorm! ... loveseat - pullout bed, microwave, 2 sets of shelves, school supplies, lamp, dirty clothes, clean clothes, dirty clothes, dirty clothes.

Now this is what I’m talking about!
Very nice. Great colour with the rims & lites! :clap:
Enjoy man.
I like the old school KC's instead of a light bar. Got a part number for those low-pro models, and the mount? I think I want to go that route on mine! I dig the old school style.
Hi Alabama Mud Machine, The lights on the mount is: https://www.kchilites.com/light-type/led/pro6-leds/gravity-led-pro6-single-pair-pack.html and the mount is from Mopar: https://www.quadratec.com/p/mopar/grille-winch-guard-jeep-wrangler-jl-82215351. The light bar and supports are: https://www.kchilites.com/light-typ...-pro6-led-light-bar-50-jeep-jl-jt-8-ring.html. I went with the Smittybilt x2o 12k winch with synthetic rope and remote https://www.quadratec.com/p/smittybilt/x2o-12-gen2-winch-synthetic-98512. To control DawgBox I went with Teraflex (part numbers below)

Teraflex 2012033 2.5 LIFT W/FALCON SHOCKS
Teraflex 1417590 FRONT LOWER CONTROL ARMS
Teraflex 1416500 REAR LOWER CONTROL ARMS
Teraflex 090222110000 SINGLE ADJ. STABILIZER

Got 5 of the Black Rhino Armory wheels (17x9.5) in desert sand and prayed the color was close to Gobi...I think it turned out great! The tires are Nitto 37X12.50X17 Ridge Grapplers and we were able to mount the spare underneath without airing down! Unfortunately, it is sitting at the shop awaiting for alignment...I can't pick it up until Monday...I must have patience!

Today i added the Air up down regulator system, next I’ll run the lines to the arb tank underneath & then to each wheel well . So hooked up all 4 tires i can air them down all at once to the exact same pressure. And air all up using the regulated pressure i want. I didn’t want to put anything under the hood because it gets so freakin hot under there in the summer. So it’s rigged up under my passenger seat.

Even though they are available on the Internet on many of the popular sites my dealer was insistent that all black weather mats were not available because they did not show up in the system however, after almost two months of arguing with the parts guy at my dealer (because they were included in my deal) about all black all weather mats (not the red trimmed ones) being available the manager Anthony @sansoneautonj made my day when he called today to tell me that my mats were in.

Attached is a photo the part number of these over engineered beauties should anyone else come across a similar situation at their dealer.

Got our Tepui tent and Rubicon Expedition Products “Hitch Tent” platform. Built it all in the driveway and shoved it into the hitch.

Also took off the dealer, Overland, and Gladiator badges, and rebranded her a Triarius.

And added some cool “Max Water Level” decals.

And finally, I finally got around to cutting off the winch hook and replacing it with a Factor55 FlatLink-E

Do you have a link for that hitch mount for a RTT? That's EXACTLY the solution a buddy of mine needs for his JLU!

Here’s the link to the Rubicon Expedition Products Hitch Tent Rack
https://rubiconep.com/hitch-tent-rack-system
They have excellent customer service, too, by the way.
We first saw the product at Overland Expo East. Here’s a better look at the rack/platform itself and the hitch adapter. The ball joint on the tent rack goes into the hitch adapter and allows you to easily raise and lower the rack and tent. Fold the legs out, swing the rack down, drive away!
It’s not light as a feather, but my wife and I can move the whole thing (rack with tent attached) around without difficulty

Hope everyone is coping best can be with the situation we are all in. So no O.R. cases today so no need for me to be recovering pt.
in the PACU. :( I mean that in a good way.
I miss our regular schedule :mad: Damn Covid!
Anyway, some pleasant activities. Fed Ex
man came today and I promptly installed the Swing-Case I ordered. Plastic isn’t as thick as I hoped. I’ll see how well this holds up.
I have a portable air compressor in there,
jumper cables, towels, tow strap, D-rings,
a couple hand-tools, ratchet straps & a collapsible shovel. It supposedly can handle 75lbs. I’m prolly near that. Be safe all.

How does that handle on the road? Looks like it could get some buffeting.
How difficult was it to align and reattach to the hitch? Did the legs settle much into the ground?
