Finally got my N-FAB EPXY. Not sure how I feel about them yet like the look but not the placement of where the step is

not even being a smartass this time.
Is there any possibility they're on the wrong side?
Kinda looks like the longer space on the front would line up about right on the back door.

I am looking for the post that showed hard top replacement locks in different colors.

Anyone know the company that has them or remember seeing the post?

Do grill inserts serve a purpose besides being an ornament? If they are designed to keep bugs out of your radiator, do they restrict airflow at all, are they easy to clean?
It does protect radiator more, it does lower airflow. Dirty acres reported an 8degree F increase. Not sure what conditions were.

For me in Wisconsin, it warms my vehicle up faster for the 6 months of winter and 3 months of spring/fall. If I'm ever towing and it starts to overheat, I can easily take the grille insert out with a screw driver.

I towed a 6x10 trailer 22" tall full of wood planks, I think 203deg F was my highest temp in flat 70deg Wisconsin.

I installed Trim-Lok rubber tubing to fill in the gap between the fenders and the quarter panels. The small willow oak leaves are just starting to fall. They are collecting and getting stuck in that crack where the fenders connect to the quarter panels. I found a couple videos on line with a cheap fix to seal up the crack. I also recall seeing a TLF video of one of our members that installed this on their JL and JT.

See VIDEO:

All you need is some rubber tubing ($16.37) and a trim tool ($5.98) that you can buy from Amazon (or Harbor Freight) to seal up the gap. It only takes a few minutes. Hope it works!

I also installed roll bar coat hangers/hooks. There are several different venders that sell them on Amazon for about 10 buck or so.

With the doors closed the steps look to be in the right position. Are they uncomfortable to use/step up and into? Maybe post some pics of the doors open so we can see?

that would put the front step even closer to the front of the door. I assume it’s not comfortable because it’s too far forward right.

I was looking at these myself. But this makes me reconsider
