    The Adventures and Build of Remi the JL Rubicon!

    Got Remi out of the garage today for a much MUCH needed cruise today. Although it’s been raining and nasty, I’ve been working non stop with everything going on. Needless to say, Remi and the new build haven’t been appreciated the way they deserve to be! Here’s a few pictures documenting our...

    Looking for a wench... I mean winch

    I am gonna second what Eddie said and say to hold out/save up for a Warn. I have a Warn VR10s and I love it. I know that’s probably not want you wanted to hear, but a couple hundred dollars more gets you Warn’s limited lifetime warranty and a wireless remote, to name a few. Sent from my...

    Buttoned back up this morning so Remi can be my daily for a couple of days! Plans this week are to wash/wax and get ready to strip down for the nice weather we are having! Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

    JL EVO tire carrier gap

    Guys that run this tailgate - question! I got it installed today! As y’all can see from the pictures, I got my tailgate lined up almost perfectly to mine and my assistant’s eyes at least. It seems like it’s spot on. My question is, When I open the tailgate, it makes a completely...

    These should work a little better! No cracks anywhere [emoji16] I ran out of daylight, but here is a shot of Remi back on all fours. As you can see, the 37” spare is loaded in the back until I get the tire carrier installed this weekend. I’m liking the look without so much rake And an artsy...

    Remi straight chilling in the garage! Taking that stay at home order very seriously! Hope to have some lugs soon. I know I could mount up the broken ones I have, but it just doesn’t feel right. While we wait, I’d figure it’d be cool to post up a before and after shot. [emoji16] Sent from...

    Discount tire is incredible, and they are sending me a set of new longer lug nuts completely free of charge. They are awesome!! They are sending me 2.16 inch lug nuts, which will be plenty long compared to these. Thank you guys for the help. I was panicking thinking I screwed something up...

    Friends, we have a problem. I was showing Remi off to a buddy, and he noticed this. All of my lugs on my passenger side rear have broken through/starting to break through I took it home and immediately pulled it off, to check the studs. I don’t notice it on the other wheels.. but I’m not...

    Well, the first one is always the hardest... I was checking the torque on the rear lugs and BANG the lug key fell out and onto the wheel. Hoping this makes that first scratch on the rings a little easier! Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

    The Adventures and Build of Remi the JL Rubicon!

    FIRST DRIVE/IMPRESSIONS Okay so I couldn’t wait, so I braved the rain and got out and took it for a test drive. Logged about 15-20 miles, and here are my thoughts. Wow, just wow. Surprisingly, it doesn’t drive that much different then my JL on 33s. It is louder, definitely has that mud tire...

    The Adventures and Build of Remi the JL Rubicon!

    Sorry to have kept y’all waiting, but here she is! Remi on her new 37s and KMC Machete Bead locks! It has a bit of a front end rake, but I know that’s normal and I’m hoping the heavy ass spare and EVO tire carrier help it. I put a coat of Griot’s Spray Wax on the wheels to keep them...
