I also added a EVO Hi-Lift Tailgate Mount and Hi-Lift Jack.

One of the major changes more recently was the addition of the Bestop Sunrider for Hartop in Black Twill. It's a product I did not even know about and I don't know if I would have even had it on my long list of items for my Jeep. What happened is Bestop was in Arizona to do a photo shoot for...

I wanted to update that I wound up going through with my original "temporary" plan of doing what Mel did with Evolander and the stock tire carrier. I showed Mel's video to the owner of the local shop that welded my sliders and did my re-gear and he welded a plate to the stock receiver hitch. It...

Some of the little things I did over the past 9 months: Rugged Ridge Dash Multi-Mount Phone Kit: Use it to hold my Note 4, and also use it as a GoPro mount. GoPro HERO Session & Headband Strap: Got this mostly for wheeling. It mounts nicely to the Rugged Dash mount, and I got the head strap...

Brad, Crap you are so right - I can't believe it has been 9 months since I updated my build thread. Time flies and I feel lame for not keeping this thread up. So I guess I should start with the front end changes. I bought a used Warn PowerPlant 9.5 with Warn Spydura Synthetic line. A big THANK...

Flex Testing Offline and I went out to a local trail, Raw Deal, this morning and did a little flex testing.

I installed mine a couple weeks ago. On each side you have 4 bolts (2 are the included 9/16", and 2 are re-used bolts). Then on the bottom in the rear crossmember you have a total of 2 bolts that go into the the nut clips which go into the (2) 7/16" holes you drill.

Thanks much, looks like they are 3" tall. I took a picture for ya.

Finished Phase 1 early this morning, here is my Firecracker Red 2015 JKUR.

Worked on it again until 2 AM and finally finished it up. Gave it a much needed wash this morning. I think I am done for a while, until I can afford to buy some more stuff.

Worked on the Jeep last night: - Jeep up on jack stands. - Pulled all 4 wheels. - Pulled the rings. - Mounted the 1 painted ring I did the other day on the spare. The VHT Satin matches perfect as others here stated, way less glossy than the Rustoleum Satin. - Got a new 3/8" bit made for...

Got a delivery today, just in time to represent at a local Jeep meet and greet this Saturday... ORE shirt, 2 hood decals, and they threw in a 2010 and 2011 JKX DVD. :thumb: Can't put the decals on yet - Jeep is at a local shop getting gears.

More progress made yesterday / early this morning. I picked up my stinger from the powder coaters, and then we had a storm here last night that cooled it off big time so I took advantage and worked on the Jeep until about 2 AM this morning. I finished trimming the passenger inner fender. I...

Working on a couple things today. Trimming the inner fenders is first. I have the passenger side done. Have to trim for the MCE Fenders, and then additional trimming for the Coilover. I'm taking my time trying not to cut too much. Before: After: Trimmed up piece:

All done. The swaybar motor rotation turned out to be simple. Now I just need to get my stinger back from powdercoating, and fill up that gaping hole with a winch, and I will be all set. No more rubbing the stock bumper (annoying!) and one more thing partially marked off the to install list...
