my BuiltRight arrives tomorrow for this exact purpose. Love the Waterport! But from the looks of this, I should have chose passenger instead of driver. Care to share details on how it’s mounted? Thanks!
I bought the universal mounting plate and drilled two of the holes out to 3/8”. Then used some stock aluminum to make a nut for the back of the molle panel. It’s pretty solid. I’ll take a pic tomorrow

This past weekend I got a great deal on a take-off Rubicon shock/spring set up and received my black hood decal - installed them pretty much immediately and couldn't be happier with the outcome. :like:

Ordered my Hydro diesel today and listed my supercharhed Sting Gray for sale. Bitter sweet!
I am intrigued by this move. The diesel power plant will be awesome for sure. I really dig the supercharged 3.6L it is holding its own doing work and off road stuff.

thanks! I got the rail mount that includes the universal mount hoping I could make it all work without a trip to the hardware store but I’m sure that won’t be the case ha.

Installed the Gator soft tri-fold bed cover. Easy install and seems like a quality part

Did you buy all 3 skid plates? If so, did you have to drop the gas tank for that plate? Also, how were the instructions that came with it? They do not have instructions on their website.
I only bought the engine/transmission skid as that felt like the biggest vulnerability, since the Rubicon has skids under the other spots. So unfortunately, I can't speak to the gas tank part.

The "instructions" are really just a single diagram of how the bolts, washers, and nuts go together at the right spots, but not step-by-step. These skids are so easy to install that it's not missed too much, but I do think something more detailed would be much appreciated for folks like me who like to get it just right the first time and have no doubts.

Not everyone's cup of tea, but I added some color to the interior. I love it. Doing the tow hooks the same color.

It is amazing how different those two pictures look. One looks purple and one looks silvery blue.
Hard to trust pictures on the computer.
