Added two bike mounts to the trail rail to more easily load and unload bikes. They weren't cheap ($55 a piece) but very easy to install, secure, and effective.

Those look like they lock ... and the url seems to indicate that ... is it in the handle? Circular or straight key? (Hopefully smaller key than the rear door fob)

I hung my JKU Harken top hoist up and hopefully it will hold the JT top without too much drama. Some will ask why the 2x6s are mounted to the 2x4s. The last place I had the hoist had ceiling joists that ran front to back. The joists in my new house run left to right. I left the hooks, pulleys, ropes, etc. mounted to the 2x6s because they're spaced out correctly and centered so all I had to do was screw them to the 2x4s. I'm not finished in this photo. I've done it a since I took this, but I have to run the pull rope (red and black in the photo) to the back wall of my garage. I'm doing a test run in the next few days.

i'm not a fan of 20's but that is great looking wheel & since its a beadlock you should'nt have to worry about curbs
That is honestly 1 of the cleanest rigs on here! I'm not a fan of chrome wheels but that was a great call on the white. Really nice looking Jeep!!
I don't want to like anything about the 20" chrome wheels but I do like this rig. Don't tell my friends:punch:;)
Hah thanks all. I knew I was going to get some hate for not going 17's but visually a 20" looks better to me, especially with a slightly taller 37" tire, plus I live in super populated North Jersey, where the most wheeling I'm doing is navigating a speed bump at the Dunkin Donuts.

Looks great but when I was in Europe I recall a single rear fog light was the standard and not two so as not to be confused with brake lights.
Never been to Europe, and the Range Rover I was following Saturday morning on my way to work in thick fog had both, so dunno.

Spent my quarantine weekend putting on the soft top and my VisionX rear bumper lights

Did you think about ordering the European rear wiring harness?
Steel bumper - 68406685AC
Plastic bumper - 68406684AD

Already been down that road last few weeks. Neither one is available, and if the wires aren't there at that main harness, buying the bumper harness won't do anything. Need the JT wiring diagrams to verify where the wires are, if they're there, to move forward in that direction, and so far cannot get the wiring diagrams for the JT, only the JL, and the JL/JT are the same for many parts, just not the back half.

Probably my last upgrade for a while. Dropped the wheels off at the tire place and I came back to pick them up when they were ready. Did not want anyone in my truck right now.

I was just looking at those wheels! Looks great!

I didn't necessarily DO it to my Jeep but today it was fully baptized. Glad I sprung for windshield insurance. I'm officially in the Jeep fam now.

Well this week I spent all my jeep cash on some Hopslam. This beer is like my kryptonite, so tasty. I was thinking of ordering the Oracle Truck Bed LED Cargo Lights. Maybe next month I'll get to the lights:beer::beer::beer:

little pleasures right now, like finding a few good beers at the store including Hopslam!
Be safe everyone...

Weekend project, I wanted the bed outlet, dealer said it wasn't possible. I talked to Benny at All Mopar parts and with some digging and verifying I had the connector on the dash and the wires in the rear passenger side harness I ordered the parts and installed them yesterday. I have an Overland that already has the inverter and rear console outlet. The dash switch comes on when pressed so fingers crossed the outlet will work once I have it flashed. Here's pics of the install. I changed the dash panel, the rear harness and installed the outlet.

So I went to the dealer and they said because the sales code isn't listed as an option on my Vin list they can't activate it. The place that sold me the parts says that it has to be built into the computer then flashed but he has to figure out what needs to be done. Starting to sound like I may have wasted my time and money. I'll update when I hear back.

Received and installed my new winch. Chose the yellow color rope because it matches my vinyl stripes.
Now that's neurotic.

That is one AGGRESSIVE winch! Hahaha. Love the yellow though. Your build is probably the ONLY scenario I would actually say it looks good on. :muscle:

Updated my Tazer Mini firmware and finally fixed the cluster splash screen on my Launch Edition to be the Rubicon one.
