I installed the Metal Cloak rear differential skid plate and the Rusty's lower control arm skid plates. I will post some tips that helped me with the LCA's in the TECH: Underbody/skid plate section.

Finally got around to installing the TeraFlex 1-1/2” front spacer lift and anti-sway bar quick disconnects. Also installed the Mopar 1/4” longer lower control arms.

Lower control arms.

I installed JCR Bed Side Molle Panels on my Mojave this afternoon. They seem very well made and sturdy. What I DID NOT like is that the mounting hardware (nuts and bolts) were silver. It looked really cheesy once I got it installed. So, I removed them and painted them black. It looks OK for now - but I am going to order some black nuts and bolts on the internet and replace them. I am also going to order the Bed Front Molle Panel from JCR now.

Installed Rubi takeoff’s (shocks and coils) with Synergy shock extension brackets, teraflex 1.5” leveling kit, daystar 3/4” rear spacer, Mopar 2” lift LCA’s (because why not). Before and after pics to come. Here she is on a quick jack, which came in handy for this job.

Service day!
And some new parts while there amiright?!

Grimm Offroad Stainless Steel Braided brake lines along with Bosch fluid. I’ll get a better pad later. The pedal response is nice, but the stock pad material feels like a wood block. I prefer more bite

Hellwig rear sway bar. - Highly recommend. I have the Mopar lift and with the camper and the soft springs, while great on trails, was really making for a sloppy highway and corner manners. It’s flat and tight now.

And a change of the trans and transfer case fluids wrapped it up.

Also took out the Transfer case skid to make life easier to drain the case, and make room for the Metalcloak Undercloak coming soon. And pulled out that flattened nutsert from the summer whoops. I’m really looking forward to those skids. Between trees, my poorly choosen lines, or inattentiveness theres too much good stuff to crush.

anyway, pics!

added a bed rack 2 days ago and this morning I installed a tent. I like it so far. Only driven down the street today. Curios to see what the gas mileage will be.

underNeath the bed rack and the tent I also have a 37 tire mounted with the rough county bed mount.

I’m liking it so far.

1.5" spacer installed today for the front, .75" on the way, maybe get to install that next weekend. Should have taken some pictures of the process, but didn't. Was able to install without removing the track bar. No noticable offset with the front axle and the steering wheel didn't have to be adjusted.

I run a rack and take the hard top off regularly. Instead of removing the top to the rear you need to just get it around the roll bar and take it to one side. Of course you need enough room between the front of the rack and the rear window to make this work.

Could you tell me what bed rack brand did you attach above the bed cover? That would be perfect to attach my rods while keeping gear locked up in the bed. I understand to keep my rods from sprouting legs and walking away to use locking snow board racks. It’s been 110 days since placing a white Mojave order. Maybe coming soon.

Installed the passenger side tow hook and bezel kit. What a PITA but at least it’s symmetrical now.

Any pointers? I have the stuff for this, minus the bezel, and was looking to do it soon.
Also…got a p/n for the bezel?

Made up some new decals for the tailgate that don't require camera or badge removal.

How does the receiver bolt onto the stock hitch? I've been trying to figure out if I can install the mopar receiver without removing the bumper.
